Rated 5 out of 5 by Thinner lighter and faster Htc one s is powered by qualcomm snapdragon s4 processor which is 28nm architecture process will be more powerful and faster than the one x which is powered by nvidia tegra 3 40nm architecture process... in term of battery life 1650mah is enough thanks for the 28nm architecture process.. 4.3inch is more than enough... but depend individuals need.. if you want bigger screen more storage you can think about one x ... hope you enjoy this phone June 25, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by HTC One S rocks my world! This phone is extremely awesome! I'd definitely recommend thiis phone to everyone. August 2, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by very worth it to buy I bought HTC One S last week, and after all i very enjoy this phone capability. This phone very user friendly so you won't need a manual book. The sound was also awesome!! August 24, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Switched from 4S to One S it is so much more faster than my 4S and it is quite user friendly. Battery life is not as bad as what people say, I think it is reasonably good. I love the design, very sleek and slim. I'll love it more when I get used to the operation system. :) September 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by One of the best phones ever! Before I bought the One S, I was using the Desire HD. This new phone completely blows the Desire HD out of the water. The Web explorer is quick, very reactive and relatively easier to use. The camera, while still lacking in advanced macro capabilities, is crisp and beautiful. The keyboard, however, is perhaps slightly difficult to type accurately with if you have big fingers like me, but it is generally easy to use and very pleasing to the eye. My favourite feature is the Beats Audio enhancement. This offers significantly more defined bass and brings out the sound more clearly than other phones. September 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 Overall I love this phone. xD I just really love the camera, its fast like never before!! =] Its unique camera features made it special compared to other phones. Its really slim and beautiful. <3 But the battery life really drain down fast. Is either im a heavy user, or the battery life is poor. And when im social networking/ surfing the net, its incredibly fast. Hmm... so far its not really laggy as i already downloaded lots of app. So good job HTC, hope u improve your product even more. =D October 26, 2012
