Rated 5 out of 5 by Jade I love this phone.
Well i got this phone 6days after it came out, Ive been having my eye on it since it got announced. I just loved the look of it, The built in camera Features, I love the fact you can record and take pictures while still recording. Amazing. I think it is a perfect size, Not too big and nice and thin. Easy to hold. I think they haven't done too bad on the battery either, Battery on phones are really the most that annoys me, but yesterday i took it off charge at 7am and took pictures alot yesterday and text and went on Facebook alot yesterday and the battery didn't go into yellow zone till about 6pm. I was really pleased. My notifications on apps didn't work to start off with and i got pretty annoyed but they seem to be working fine now. The speaker is really good too, Annoyed you don't get beat headphones with them any more tho, i was looking forward to getting them but i got 5pound headphones yesterday and the volume is good. So not to annoyed any more, I haven't yet regretted getting this phone yet. Everything is so easy to find and amazing to type on. I really Recommend this phone to anyone, Does everything you need. So much better then a iphone.

Rated 4 out of 5 by RBLondon Amazing phone. Battery could be better!
This phone is super fast and responsive. It's really nice to use. The only downside is the battery. If you're a heavy user, you'll have to charge it every single day. But the design and features are brilliant. Overall, I'm loving it! :)

Rated 4 out of 5 by VasP Beautiful but not as good as advertised...
I was amazed by the way this phone was marketed as being able to withstand the everyday use and a bit more without a case. This is not true as i have already exchanged my first One S black for another one due to minor chipping on the top. Otherwise im happy with the phone and i would like more durable battery as well, as its something that you need when you cannot replace it on your own.
I hope HTC will find a solution to this chipping issue and also will allow owners that have already bought the phone to be within that solution. If the manufacturing process changes and after a certain serial number they are better, i would appreciate if HTC would replace my current phone for free, even if it doesnt have any problems.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bob1 Gorgeous phone
I love the one s it is beautiful and unbelievably thin. I have never had any issues with speed and the graphics are amazing. The MAO coating gives the phone a premium feel in the hand. I would highly recommend this phone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Elly Love it.
Bought this a couple of weeks ago as an upgrade to a Desire. I absolutely love it, the screen quality is great, the camera even better especially allowing you to use different filters as you're taking pictures and the sound quality for a phone is amazing. The only problem I have is that the battery life could be just a little better, mine lasts 1-2 days of moderate use and takes about 3 hours to charge. Saying that though most people have a charger handy so it isn't really an issue particularly since the charger is a micro USB anyway so standard to a lot of smartphones. The phone looks and feels great it can just be a little slippery to hold (a bit if a problem when you're never going to put it down) so mine is all wrapped up in a nice case.

Rated 3 out of 5 by dlorde Antenna problem?
Great phone, really good form factor, fast, excellent screen, camera, and other features. The only thing that lets it down is that it has a very poor signal reception - in places where my previous Desire could happily browse the internet, download or stream video, this phone just fails to get enough signal to enable the connection. It often fails to get any network connection at all, where the Desire had no problem.

Rated 5 out of 5 by ValterD HTC One S amazing phone...
The only thing that let this phone down is the battery life witch is not as it suppost to be, HTC should lisen to the die hard customers and fans of there divices and give a more powerful battery to their devices because if they do so it will be without a dout the best smartphones in the market... The designe is just gorgeous, I being using HTC phones sence they came out with G1 and never change to other make, still have my G1, Wildfire, Desire, Desire HD, Sensation 4g and xl, now I have the One S. I love my HTC One S it is that good.
