Similar to some of the other HTC phones I've reviewed recently, the specifications on the HTC Desire X won't blow you away, but they aren't too shabby either. The dual-core 1GHz Snapdragon S4 processor provides plenty of horsepower, so running through apps and swiping through screens for the most...

Didn't you get the memo? Android phones are getting bigger: first the 4.7-inch HTC One X, now the 5.5-inch Samsung Galaxy Note 2. It's the law. At least, it certainly seems that way, which is why the more compact, 4-inch HTC Desire X comes as a breath of fresh air, just in time for those upgrading...
Pros:
  • 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...
Cons:
  • 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.

HTC Desire X review Review

The Desire X can't compete with top-of-the-range Android powerhouses such as the One X or the Galaxy S3. But it does have an attractive design, a decent processor and, more importantly, an affordable price -- and free Beats headphones.
Pros:
  • Good performance from the dual-core chip
  • Clear
  • colourful 4-inch screen
  • MicroSD card slot
  • Reasonably priced
Cons:
  • Plasticky build quality

A Very Good Phone For Its Price

this may not be an ideal review to look at before you buy as I have been only using it for a 2 weeks nonetheless this phones a beauty. I was in great doubt before buying this phone but now i realise there was no need for that.

1. Irrestibly desirable Smartphone

Thrilled to finally have an HTC Desire –X. All this while I have been waiting to get a fully loaded Smartphone that would fit in my budget. Now I can watch videos & hear my favorite music on the go, capture good moments of my life and stay connected with my friends all at the same time.

  • Attractive design
  • Good screen quality
  • Performance is top notch
Cons:
  • Horrible physical buttons
  • Low on native storage space

A refreshingly fast replacement for my Dell Streak

My phone contract came up for renewal in early December and rather than get a new handset under contract I decided to buy a SIM free phone. After doing a good amount of review hunting online I settled on the HTC Desire X.

  • Price
  • Spec

  • Build quality
