HTC One S review
I won't beat around the bush: when the HTC One S launches on April 25th for $199.99, it will be one of the best smartphones T-Mobile has ever launched. In fact, it might be the best. HTC had a lot to prove with its One-series smartphones, and in terms of hardware and software, it delivered.
Pros:
- I am absolutely blown away by the One S in terms of design and build
- This smartphone sets the bar for flagship devices in 2012, and I doubt many phones will even approach the One S this year
- At 7.95 millimeters, this smartphone is one of the thinnest handsets that has ever been produced.
Cons:
- As much praise as I gave the design and materials found on the One S, I far prefer the micro-arc oxidized aluminum finish on the international version of the phone
- Micro-arc oxidation refers to a process where aluminum is treated by blasting it with plasma at extremely high temperatures.

Review: HTC One S
HTC has been one of the more prolific players in the Android phone market of late. But so far, the Taiwanese manufacturer hasn't quite solidified its desired reputation as a beloved premium handset maker, up with the likes of Apple, Samsung and Motorola.
Pros:
- Super thin and light with an attractive unique style
- No problems with call quality or battery life
- Premium materials add an upscale feel and 4G speeds are fast, when you can get a 4G signal
- Photo software is top-notch
- 25GB of free storage from Dropbox with purchase
Cons:
- Protruding camera lens is begging for scuffs and scratches
- Display is pixelated, not high definition
- Beats Audio doesn't make anything sound better, just louder
- And while it has Beats Audio technology, it doesn't come with Beats earbuds

HTC One S (T-Mobile)
With both HTC and T-Mobile going through trying times, both the carrier and the handset maker are looking to make a bold statement with the HTC One S. This little brother to the HTC One X boasts the same superfast camera--thanks to a dedicated imaging chip--along with a sexy Super AMOLED screen...
Pros:
- Slim and attractive design
- Gorgeous Super AMOLED screen
- Speedy camera
- Sleek Sense UI on top of Android 4.0
Cons:
- T-Mobile 4G Network can be spotty
- Mediocre battery life

HTC One S
The HTC One S is one of our top picks among Android smartphones. Not only is it one of the few to run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, we also like the evolution of HTC Sense. The gorgeous, elegant and durable anodized aluminum unibody casing, impossibly thin profile and attention to detail are hard...
Pros:
- ICS
- stunning design
- lovely display
- HSPA+ 42 Mbps support
Cons:
- Battery not removable
- no storage expansion

HTC One S Review
HTC lost a lot of ground to Samsung and other companies over the past year or so, and is trying to make up the difference with its One series. The One series includes the One V (the "value" model with the "chin"), the One S (for the "mid-range"), and the flagship One X .
Pros:
- + Aluminum unibody feels fantastic in-hand + Good battery life + Camera software is innovative with a fast shutter + Relatively inexpensive
Cons:
- - Performance is sub-par
- especially in the browser - Camera is good
- but not great - No NFC - microSIM - Non-removable battery

HTC One S
Following swiftly in the footsteps of the HTC One X , the HTC One S sits in the middle of the company's new trio of One branded Android smartphones. But while it may not be feature packed enough to perch at the top of HTC's pile, there's still potentially enough here to make this one of the choice...
Pros:
- Beautiful slim but strong design
- Dazzling and colourful screen
- Incredibly fast processor
- Feature packed camera
Cons:
- Matt black finish doesn't wear damage well
- Screen has iffy viewing angles and isn't as sharp as the best
- HTC image quality still isn't brilliant

HTC One S review: Onederful
The HTC One S is the middle child of the One family but it just might be the brightest and best looking too. Inside the slender metal case is a treasure chest of new technology - the brains behind the beauty in this piece of smartphone alchemy...

HTC One S review Review
The One S is the Goldilocks choice of HTC's new Ice Cream Sandwich-packing range -- neither too big nor too small, and with just the right amount of oomph under the hood allowing it to throw pixels around like a hyperactive clubber throws shapes.
Pros:
- Very fast and responsive
- Ice Cream Sandwich
- Latest HTC Sense is easy to use
- Good 8-megapixel camera
- Slender but sturdy form
Cons:
- No microSD card slot
