The sides of the HTC One X are finished in the same white polycarbonate as the back, except it is a glossier – and less grippy – finish.
The top edge is the most busy of the four on the One X with the 3.5mm headphone jack, secondary microphone and power button. The button itself doesn’t sit completely flush with the body but maintains the streamlined design.
The lefthand side mixes things up a bit, at least compared to previous HTC phones. The MicroUSB slot has been moved from the two thirds down the edge to two thirds up the lefthand side. The MicroUSB is also MHL capable for all your wired connectivity needs. DLNA is also present for those who have other compatible devices.
The bottom of the HTC flagship is home to the primary microphone. The volume rocker is found on the upper right hand side and looks much like a stretched version of the power button. Some users have complained about the positioning of the rocker but we really do not see or have encountered any issues.
wow thats a lot of information for a phone. I need a new one, but had been thinking about an Apple iPhone due to store support. What do you think? bad move?
Looks very nice indeed. never owned an HTC phone before as my friend had one a year ago and it just stopped working for some reason, he got it replaced buyt the battery life was terrible.
Neil, do you mean support in terms of customer/returns or the app store? If you’re in the US then Apple will likely have superior customer support, can’t speak for other regions. If you mean the app store then both iOS and Android are on the same level
Joseph, HTC hasn’t exactly been known for brilliant battery life to be fair! The One X’s battery life is a bit average – especially after getting a Galaxy S III as a comparison
it’s a fantastic phone,wonderful apps,slim style overall excellent telephone sound is beautiful but there’s few points that are difficult to manage so if they’re able to handle that within the software it will likely be great but overall an outstanding phone
