HTC Desire X review

The HTC Desire X falls into a space between the HTC One V and the HTC One S, but is more restrained in its design. There are some points where the Desire X has been squeezed on the spec sheet: the lack of front facing camera and limited HD support being notable.
Pros:
  • Compact
  • affordable
  • respectable screen size
  • microSD card slot
Cons:
  • There's nothing to get really excited about

HTC Desire X review

When HTC came up with its original Desire in 2010 it had a smartphone watershed moment. The handset was quite lovely. I carried on using mine well past its sell-by date simply because it was nicely designed and its optical trackpad was so clever. I know people who still use the phone.
Pros:
  • Good screen
  • Comfy size for the hand
  • Some nice camera features
Cons:
  • Flimsy backplate
  • Nothing special to look at
  • No real USP

HTC Desire X review

The HTC Desire X is a perfectly decent midrange handset but is let down by its insensitive screen and it doesn't really do a lot to distinguish itself from rivals in this space, like the Galaxy Ace 2 , Sony Xperia P or Orange San Diego .
Pros:
  • Ice Cream Sandwich
  • midrange price
Cons:
  • Screen could be more sensitive
  • sluggish processor
  • not very distinctive

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
