HTC Windows Phone 8X now officially confirmed for T-Mobile, "coming soon"

HTC Windows Phone 8X now officially confirmed for T-Mobile,
The HTC Windows Phone 8X is probably the best looking Windows Phone device, and one of the most gorgeous devices we’ve ever seen, and good news is that it is now officially coming to T-Mobile. We don’t exactly when, but it will be “soon.”

Given that HTC has been the only Windows Phone manufacturer to clarify that its phones are coming in November, we guess T-Mobile won’t be an exception and will also get the HTC 8X around then.

The 8X by HTC is a device inspired by Windows Phone and its colorful live tiles and has an equally vibrant color selection coming painted in colors like yellow and red.

The screen is 4.3-inches with 720 x 1280-pixel resolution which means an extremely detailed image with pixel density of 342ppi. The chip is a dual-core Snapdragon S4 working along 1GB of RAM, and on the back there is an 8-megapixel camera. All of that combined with T-Mobile’s affordable plans sounds like a great combo, don’t you think?

Is it just me, or does it look paper thin in that image?

Agreed. If nokia sticks with ATT again, expect it to fail. At ATT it already has the iphone and SGS3 to compete with. It would be a stupid move by nokia. If brought to Tmobile it would be the best phone there and would attract people to switch.

i wonder when will nokia sue HTC? the phone really ressembles to a lumia!

and before thumbing down... i just want to point out.. this isn't like apple and samsung fight! nokia wanted to ban this coz it ressembles to a lumia want proofs if you're still not convince? go to youtube and look for the vids of 8X and read the comments.. all i could see is "RIP OFF of nokia lumia!" and even tech sites!

but at least not the 8S... but looks like sony xperia..

coz if i were HTC.. they shouldn't go to this part! it really ressembles to nokia's... but if they go for the design of one X, which is also polycarbonate body like lumia BUT DOESN'T RESSEMBLE TO A LUMIA!!! they should play safe!!! they should do that! and one X is a great device with an awesome design!

Only losers play it safe, and HTC can't really afford to keep losing for much longer or they will really be in trouble, also, Nokia needs to wake up, they're starting to sound like Apple really fast, do they own patents for colorful phones?

please.. they sue apple before... apple pay them..

they are not like apple! they are different! apple stop innovation! galaxy series touchwisz ressembles to an iPhone...

but this is the dress code of lumia! the polycarbonate was lumia's!! and it is patent by nokia!

but apple is unfair that they patent rounded corners!

If somebody pays you it doesn't mean you are right, otherwise we would be in trouble with Apple with their recent huge victory. Please don't get me wrong, I only said they are starting to sound like Apple, nothing else, I do know Nokia innovates like nobody else which is different from the fruit company, where all they do is buy innovation, dumb it down enough for the masses, package it in a very nice piece of hardware and then sell it for huge profit.
I still think you shouldn't be able to sue somebody because they are making phones with the same colors as yours, or because they have glass on the front, or because they have rounded corners, etc. They should let the product speak for itself

As a T-Mobile customer I'm excited that at least one high-end Windows Phones on our shelves. I expect the Ativ S to be there as well. I'm hopeful for the 920 though. Yes!
