  • A generally responsive handset

  • While the absurd Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note sales numbers have shown there’s a big market for even bigger phones
  • They’re not for everyone. The HTC Desire X is a much more manageable size
  • With a screen you can actually cover every corner of with one hand.It’s still running much the same software as HTC’s swankier One series phones though

The editors didn't like

  • There's nothing to get really excited about
  • Average specs
  • Lower RAM
  • Cut down HTC Sense
  • Flimsy back cover
  • Plasticky build quality
  • Small internal memory
  • Screen viewing angles are quite tight
  • Photo quality
  • High SAR level
  • While the HTC Desire X is more than fast enough for all but the most hardcore users and 3D gamers - more so in fact than the HTC One V
  • Which is odd since that’s meant to be a classier phone - its specs aren’t cutting edge. The 800x480 panel is bright with great colours
  • But not hugely sharp
  • You’ll see the jagged edges and pixels
  • Particularly if you like to read long articles on the go.The same
  • Couple of glitches
  • Onboard storage could be better
  • Odd back panel fit
  • Snapper shutter suffers from lag
  • Flimsy backplate
  • Nothing special to look at
  • No real USP
  • Screen could be more sensitive
  • Sluggish processor
  • Not very distinctive
  • No front-facing camera
  • Mediocre main camera
  • No HD video capture

  • In conclusion, the HTC Desire X is actually a rather good handset.  There are two main selling points, one being the excellent sound quality produced by the Beats Audio and the other being the camera quality.  The Desire X is an attractive handset that fl...

  • Design, handling, finish, Sense interface is intuitive and wellintegrated, A generally responsive handset, Audio quality
  • Small internal memory, Screen viewing angles are quite tight, Photo quality, High SAR level
  • The HTC Desire X is a nice smartphone to use and is generally responsive. Multimedia performances are a bit of a mixed bag, though, with excellent audio quality but a camera that could be better....

  • HTC’s argument that the Desire X is more affordable than the One series is a little bit odd, given that this is a vastly more powerful phone than the HTC One V. But your hands probably don’t care about technicalities, or the difference between differen...

  • Great screen, nice design, fast for a mid-range phone, good battery life
  • HTC's Sense user inteface is frustrating, not capable of recording HD video

  • Though marketed as a mid-range smartphone, the Desire X surely has what it takes to be a good Android device. It has decent specs and amazing features that you can enjoy for an affordable price. Having the chance to hold and play with the phone, I fin...

  • Attractive design, Good screen quality, Performance is top notch
  • Horrible physical buttons, Low on native storage space
  • Chances are thatthe HTC Desire X is a phone that you won't regret getting. Its maker has managed to deliver a reasonably priced smartphone that looks good enough to make you want to show it off in public. Besides, the handset runs as smoothly as a con...

  • Great build, Fantastic camera, Quick to use with good battery
  • No front-facing camera, Limited RAM
  • The HTC Desire X is hands down the best way you can spend £200 on a smartphone right now and a good all-rounder. Strong design, screen, user-friendly UI, good 5-megapixel camera, performance from the processor and battery - possibly the most compelling sm...

  • Abstract:  HTC produces some great looking smartphones and its latest release aims to bring some of that distinctive style to a more affordable device. The HTC Desire X features some design touches from the more expensive 'One' range but it retails for under $300 in...

  • Great screen at this price, Designed like the more expensive One X, HTC Sense and Android ICS, User accessible battery,
  • Won't play HD videos, Only 1GB of storage,
  • HTC delivers one of the better pre-paid options in the Desire X, with much of the One X DNA trickling down to this cheaper device....

  • Low price, Vivid screen, Compact design
  • Average specs, Lower RAM, Cut down HTC Sense, Flimsy back cover
  • The HTC Desire X is a decent mid-range phone which offers up a smartphone experience you've come to expect from handsets which cost around £200. It's doesn't offer anything particularly thrilling, nor does it having any major flaws and while the design i...
