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

HTC One S (T-Mobile)
HTC has finally launched its first Android smartphone to ship with Ice Cream Sandwich-and it's a winner. The HTC One S packs a next-generation dual-core processor, a vibrant screen, an unusually capable camera, and fast HSPA+ 42 data speeds, all into one of the slimmest and lightest designs we've...

HTC One S review
The One S is the best 4.3in Android device on the market when it comes to features, battery life and design. HTC Sense is simply the best pre-installed overlay available from a manufacturer.

HTC One S Android smartphone
The One S is the Panther tank to the One X's Königstiger. Smaller, lighter, not as visually impressive nor perhaps as iconic but at the end of the day still a fine and versatile device for use in the real world.

HTC One S Review: Sturdy, Speedy And Sharp, But With Some Shortcomings
The old HTC is dead . Long live the new HTC, with fewer products and more attention to detail. The HTC One line heralds this new day. We've already seen the HTC One X here in Australia , but over in the US, the first phone they'll see is the HTC One S.

HTC One S Android phone
The HTC One S certainly doesn't look or feel inferior to the flagship One X. A lower resolution display is the main differentiator, but the One S makes up for that with a design that's more comfortable to hold and better battery life. If the One X's size is too much for you to handle, then you should definitely check out the One S. The One X may be HTC's flagship Android phone of 2012, but the One S certainly doesn't look or feel any less classy. It's constructed from a unibody aluminium frame that's just 7.6mm thick and boasts many of the same features as its more expensive counterpart.
Pros:
- Thin and stylish design
- Excellent performance
- Great camera software
Cons:
- Display can't match some rivals
- No memory expansion
- Inconsistent Sense UI
