However, my son came for a visit and we managed over three days to tailor the phone to my taste (depart loads of apps!). Now I have smoothly running phone and I love it. Sleek, white, responsive, but it did need experience to start it all off.

Having been a long-time Blackberry user(and before that Palm) my first impressions of this phone were 'wow'. The screen is superb (and plenty big enough), it's lightning fast and the user interface is very easy to use.

Picture and sound quality are excellent. very clear screen even when the brightness is set to minimal. modern and very stylish design. battery is good for moderate users and not heavy users.at this price i don't think there are better handsets.

I was very confused before purchasing the phone as this was my first smart phone. I have never used other smart phone regularly so I am not going to purchase this with any other. I mainly purchased this one for apps and music.

The dual-core 1GHz Snapdragon S4 processor provides plenty of horsepower, so running through apps and swiping through screens for the most...

The five-megapixel snapper impresses with a great selection of features and impressive results, unless taking shots in low light. Music sounds better thanks to Beats Audio, although we'd have liked to see more onboard storage.

User-friendly Sense interface; Beats Audio; Lengthy battery life; Bright, colourful screen

Couple of glitches; onboard storage could be better; odd back panel fit; snapper shutter suffers from lag

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.

Compact; affordable; respectable screen size; microSD card slot

There's nothing to get really excited about
