The HTC One S features Android 4.0
  • But HTC still insists on caking in its HTC Sense 4 interface to accompany it
  • So you don’t quite get the full Android 4.0 experience. But that said
  • The interface is still lush
  • Featuring beautiful menu layouts. But there’s still little we dislike about the HTC One S.
  • Body highly sensitive to scratching (to be verified...)
  • Low memory for a multimedia smartphone (about 12 GB)
  • Low pixel density for 2012
  • No microSD card slot
  • Display could be better
  • Storage limited with no expansion options
  • Lack of sharpness on display
  • Limited memory
  • No SD slot
  • MicroSIM is a pain for some
  • Keyboard has seen better days
  • Call quality can be slightly tinny
  • Could do with a tad more storage
  • No option to increase memory
  • Sonically it's bettered elsewhere
  • Maximum 16GB internal memory
  • Second fiddle to the One X
  • No memory expansion
  • No removable battery

  • Thin and stylish design, Excellent performance, Great camera software
  • Display can't match some rivals, No memory expansion, Inconsistent Sense UI
  • The HTC One S certainly doesn't look or feel inferior to the flagship One X. A lower resolution display is the main differentiator, but the One S makes up for that with a design that's more comfortable to hold and better battery life. If the One X's size...

  • If you're already on T-Mobile, seeking an upgrade, then totally. It's fast, sleek and pretty excellent. If you're in between contracts, then it's not worth switching over for. The HTC One X on AT&T and the HTC Evo 4G LTE on Sprint are both better phones...

  • So, we've got the exclusive look at the One S, and we've been impressed with what we've seen. Barring a couple of things, which can be ignored anyway, we've got ourselves a really great phone with generous screen size, excellent build quality, fantastic f...

  • 1.7 GHz Dual Core processor, Android Ice Cream Sandwich, 8.0megapixel camera with front VGA camera
  • Expensive, No built in video calling/ no expandable memory, Battery is not detachable
  • Which seems high to us, considering the quad core processor powered One X (which also has a larger display) is now available for about Rs 35,000. If, however, you are looking for a non-HTC Android device in the same range, you could consider the Sony Xper...

  • Good performance, Crisp and bright display, Very good camera, Built well
  • No expandable memory, Priced too close to the One X
  • HTC's latest dual-core offering does many things welll - it has a good display, impressive build, a good camera, and delivers good performance overall. However, what we don't understand is how HTC could price this phone so close to its elder sibling, the ...

  • Abstract:  So you've already read about the iPhone-beating HTC One X – but what if you don't fancy its palm-straining 4.8in screen? Let's see how its smaller, thinner and cheaper sibling fares…The One S looks and feels great. It's available in two styles – a black v...
