Is it an iPhone? Is it a Blackberry? No, it is a HTC One! Who needs the aforementioned devices with the latest HTC in the pocket? Because it promises to perform as well and even better than its competitors; browsing at the speed of light, gaming as if you were in it and an image quality that will be retained on your retina; all thanks to the powerful quad core processor. Moreover, the built-in camera is equally promising, it makes claims to take vivid and beautiful pictures even in low light. Of course, this requires a thorough test to see whether these promises can stand reality…
With this HTC X One, the company HTC has a new weapon to recover their top position they had a few years ago a few years ago. In 2011, they had lost it, because of some heavy blows from competitors, such as Samsung. But, with a handsome and trendy design, a wide range of options and rock-solid camera at the ready, HTC battles back! The question is whether they will be able to handle the cutthroat competition of the Samsung Galaxy S3 and the iPhone 5? Time to have a close look to the HTC X One and test his worth!
A first acquaintance
Being a current iPhone user, I’m excited to get to know better the device. With the manual at my side, which leads me smoothly through the wonderful world of the HTC One X. It soon becomes clear that the way of using is very similar to an iPhone, which makes the introductory process somewhat easier.
What strikes me immediately with a first look at the HTC device is that the THTX One X is rather big. Advantage or disadvantage? That remains to be seen! The sleek design is already a feast for the eyes and despite its size, the device is nice and light in hand. I am already slightly worried about the prominent place it will occupy in my handbag. No problem in my XL bag, but with the current trend of the mini handbags this may become an obstacle…
