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.

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.

few days back i was deciding to buy a mid range android phone, i had to choose between Galaxy S Duos, Desire X and Xperia J. finally i preferred Galaxy S Duos. main reason not buy xperia was that it was too laggy and for HTC DesireX was that it is not up gradable to Jelly Bean.

attractive design; slim; better display

no hd recording or playback; battery just average and no words on JB upgrade till now

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 .

Ice Cream Sandwich; midrange price

Screen could be more sensitive; sluggish processor; not very distinctive

The phone's battery easily lasted for a day and half under normal use, which is exceptional for a device with this large a screen. All in all, Desire X has the right mixture of looks, multimedia features, sound and camera power - and all at the right price too.

After going through 2 Samsung mini S3s in less than 10 days due to freezing screens and cutting out during calls I decided to opt for the trust HTC again. I used to have a Desire S and although good, the Desire X is far superior. It is fast, clear, well laid out and very easy to use.

Forget your iphones this is one neat mobile straight out the box the size and feel is good it's got a 4inch screen which is great with very clear display it's a slender but not big size ideal for putting in your pocket and surprisingly not heavy either!

Touchscreen Response; Big screen; Camera; Everything really; Awesome Apps; Speed Of Screen Pages; Fantastic battery life; Predictive Text Writing

None

The Desire X is HTC's mid range device aimed at the "average user" who is intrigued by the idea of an Android powered smartphone yet still enjoys the simpler things in life. The Desire X ticks all the necessary boxes with a discreet design, easy to understand interface and surprisingly good super...

-Neat; slim design - Decent screen -Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich -Good battery life

-No front-facing camera -Mediocre main camera -No HD video capture -No microSD slot

NOt good for this price

All mobiles have these features at this price so no wonder about Pros.

Single Sim; nowadays dont need; no front cam; this is killing me; doesnt support; adobe flash

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
