From an aesthetic point of view, this little gem while dressed in white, is beautiful!
Indeed, its bevelled edges and rounded at the corners, giving it a slightly curved line printing and lightness. He seems much thinner and less massive than the DHD. The weight difference is also for something: 130 grams including battery for the One X, against 164 grams including battery for the Desire HD (178g Rating, 140g for Iphone 4S, but only 116g for the Samsung Galaxy SII).
Also, always in comparison to DHD, the One X has taken up and a little wide, but has been refined, with a size of 134.36 x 69.9 x 8.9 mm (against 123 mm x 68 mm x 11.8mm). Its touch screen 720p HD resolution and a 1280 x 720 is 4.7 "against 4.3 inches for the DHD or IBS, but only 3.5 '' for the Iphone 4S! FYI, Samsung Galaxy Note, the fruit of a union between a smartphone and a tablet has a screen of 5.3 inches. The screen of the One X is light (adjustable according to the planning of each) and nice looking. The resolution in a video viewing is very good.
However, this growth is disadvantageous in making the device with one hand. Especially as his white polycarbonate coating (pleasant to the touch and do not skate) and beveled sides prove slippery! A shell is essential!
Finally, who says all white and greatest phone, said much more visible to others! So caution when stripping in public transport! Especially as the One X was offered by TRND without a helmet! I know, it is downright petty on my part; I am offered a beautiful phone to 500 and I still find fault !! Ouuhhh! to myself !!!
Level performance, the One X has a V6 'um' a 1.5GHz Quad Core Android '4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with HTC Sense' 4.0 (for the most informed)! Indeed, the phone responds better and faster to what he is asked to perform, the more pages struggling to appear when I have neither changed telephone operator (SIM just passing a essential micro-SIM) or moved. Besides, the DHD (Android '2.2 (Froyo) with HTC Sense') placed in a horizontal position, downloads were effected very, very, very slowly. This defect has disappeared on the One X.
However, I find the pinch system to expand a less specific window, or at least, much more sensitive than the DHD, causing many handling errors (or my fingers that have grown !!!). Maybe would it take, like Note, return to a stylus that significantly simplifies things and allows very little input errors!
For cons, the screenshot on the internet via the minus key of the volume operated at the same time the button on the top of the One X, can be downright practical.
Nevertheless, it is difficult to compare the One X with other smartphones still have a Dual Core processor. Await the highly anticipated release of the Samsung Galaxy SIII very expensive!
The battery life is average, despite a battery of 1800 mAh. Result, the One X takes just a full day in full use. This problem should be solved with updates. Patience therefore '
Regarding the sound, and even with the presence of the Beats Audio ', there is nothing to recreate an atmosphere or night concert box !!! Moreover, a brief reference to his poor appears on two lines in the characteristics of the HTC One X on the site !!! In fact, when listening to music, it lacks serious and low result, the sound is very unpleasant.
Compared to Samsung, HTC tremendous progress to this point, even if there is an improvement over the DHD!
Side images / video, the One X has two sensors, one front 1.3 megapixel (kind of webcam) and a second rear 8 megapixel with LED fash and a lens 28 mm. The application is simple to use, with access settings directly on the screen. There are 16 possible effects, HDR mode to improve the sharpness of the image when it is dark and burst mode. The resolution is correct, even if sometimes the "red-eye" appeared.
The novelty is undoubtedly the opportunity to take photos while filming!
By cons, beware of automatic sharing images on social networks! Set out your choice of sharing or not, this can save you end up with doss' madness !!!
Finally, the One X takes advantage of a new version of HTC Sense. It turns uncluttered and very fluid. So ended the scrolling effect between seven home panels unfamiliar, meanwhile, no upheaval.
The notifications bar was also purified, keeping only the SMS, missed calls, downloads, emails received 'and a touch directly accessing parameters. You can find the settings as a widget (wifi, settings, sync, roaming). Speaking of widgets, they are numerous and of different sizes to facilitate their integration in the host panels.
Small bonus Sense, Face Unlock is unlock using facial recognition.
Latest anecdotal observations: First, the One X heating back! Indeed, in play mode, the lens (photo sensor) temperature rises quickly!
Then, when the sms entry (aka texting for old like me), the caret does not appear, and the C cedillas! The word is underlined in red, and if you validate the corrected word proposed by the phone, the error continues to appear and the word to be highlighted in red!
In conclusion, the One X is a great (so pay attention, I insist, difficult to keep a hand) and beautiful smartphone with 32 GB of internal memory (which is really not negligible), very easy and pleasant to use, with a very fluid and uncluttered interface despite some flaws! Perfection almost!
