Re-introduces the much loved HTC Hero styling
Solid HTC build quality
Battery life was good in our tests
Like a lot of HTC smartphones the One V feels like a top quality bit if kit. Its unibody design feels solid
Reassuring and as if it would be resilient enough in the long term. The ridged design feature that runs along the edge delivers a nice grip unlike some polycarbonate phones. The Android 4.0 experience might feel diluted somewhat by the inclusion of HTC Sense but not by much. You get the be

Single core chip

5MP camera isn't going to replace your digital point-and-shoot camera
HTC One V design
HTC One V is an unusual looking handset in a sea of almost identical touchscreen phones that fill the High S
With dual-core and quad-core phones (such as the HTC One X) hitting the shops
Or about to
The HTC One V’s single core 1GHz processor is already beginning to feel dated. Sure
It’s quick enough
But not as quick as it could be in comparison to some of the phones we’ll soon be lusting after such as the Samsung Galaxy S3. Video also seems to lack some detail when shooting subjects at long range

Sluggish at times
Especially for web browsing
Typing can be cramped
Slightly poor filming
No Beats headphones
Cramped keyboard
Not dual
Core
Just 4GB storage
Tad slow at times
Measly onboard storage
Disappointing video
Old hardware means it's a little slow
Some missing features could have been incorporated
There's no doubt that both the One X and Galaxy Nexus are incredibly strong opponents to come out against. It's quite interesting, though, when you think about how your overall impression of a handset changes with time. When one approaches the One X a...
Compact and lightweight, Beautiful display, Android 4.0, Decent camera
Web browser needs more work, Way too little internal storage, Mediocre 720p video
Getting your hands on an HTC One V is going to cost you about $370 off-contract, which is definitely a reasonable price considering what you get in exchange. The smartphone has style and character that few devices in its price category can match, and ...

Abstract: In recent months we've watched HTC launch the high-end members of its One family of smartphones, and now it is the turn of the budget handset.Designed as a cheap entry into the family, the One V is noticeably smaller than the other One models, and uses bo...

While HTC isn't going to break any speed records with the One V, it has delivered a very well-rounded budget phone. Performance is a little slow, but the build and design of the handset are impeccable and, as long as the now small 3.7in screen is enough t...
Lacking performance; When the charge cable is plugged in, the touchscreen becomes useless, making the alarms rather hard to use; Web download speed could be better;
Smartphones can be hard to pick, especially when you know that you're going to be locked into a two-year contract with one, or if you're plonking down lots of cash for a device you hope will last you until you can afford – or need to buy – another one.HTC...
Aluminium unibody; screen size is refreshingly small and reproduce colours well; the camera is good for a 5MP camera
Hardware specs little underwhelming compared to One X; screen makes Sense UI feel cramped
The HTC One V is more targeted towards those who are either jumping from pre-paid to a paid plan, but do not want to pay for a $60 a month plan to get a phone like the HTC One X or Galaxy S III. The phone has minor problems, but overall it is a decent pho...
