Rated 5 out of 5 by CMYKRIS Makes my insides cry with joy.
Haven't had it for very long but I know that if this phone was a lady, I would take it out for expensive dinners and boat rides. The user experience is just perfect. If you're at least a bit familiar with any android device, you WILL love this phone. For a noobie to android, this might get a little confusing at first, but really, is anyone here a noobie anymore? Sound quality is delicious. The processor is crazy fast so you can run all your crazy apps all at once. Yeah even that weird dating site app you like. Everything is buttery smooth. I couldn't be happier. Oh, and did I mention the hardware is insanely attractive?!

Rated 4 out of 5 by KenW Good successor to my HTC Desire
I was looking for another high end phone to replace my Desire, which is now 2 years old. The One S was attractive - it hit the size sweet spot and the features were good enough for my needs. The One X is marketed as the flagship, but I have small hands and find it too big. Based on the hardware features alone the One S could be a worthy flagship in its own right.
After about 2 and a half weeks of use I have found it quite comfortable to use. It was the build quality that attracted me to the One S, and in the hand it feels utterly solid (except for some slight creaking from the removable top cover, although it doesn't seem to actually move). The camera is responsive, and the battery life is strikingly good. The UI is mostly smooth and fluid, and apps load very quickly compared to the Desire. Audio output is good and loud, and the numbers reported in the GSMArena review show the One S is one of the best music phones you can buy.
What could be better? More storage, for one. The available storage is enough for me, but given its prowess in music output it would have been good to have more space for music. There seem to be some niggling software issues as well - my One S spontaneously reboots every 2-3 days, I have managed to crash the Sense homescreen app just swiping through the calendar widget, more than once, the phone sometimes reports 'No Service' even though calls and data still function, and the data link sometimes goes wrong, giving me DNS lookup failures on everything online until I reboot. Finally, I seem to have encountered a mild form of the chipping issues with the black version.
In conclusion, though, my impression of this phone is good. The build quality is excellent, it is a fine phone in the hand and I do not regret choosing it over the One X or Galaxy Nexus or (upcoming) Samsung S3.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Truls The almost perfect Phone
This phone is totaly perfect, except one little thing, this first days i have ben using it a lot and it is out of battery just about 11 pm. I love everything else about this phone, the good camera, how thin it is, everything. It fits just perfect in the pocket.

Rated 4 out of 5 by UNDERCOVER Blown out of SPACE!!!
I very much recommend this phone. The ONE S offers everything you need, with its simplistic user interface and premium build quality nothing should stop you from buying this BAD BOY right here. Very elegant design and the screen size is just enough for casual users. I love the sound quality because I usually listen to rnb's and I tell you it'll blow you away and the camera, I just can't stop shooting anything and anyone with this, this phone is a monster.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kevin14fe Blazing fast phone!!
An awesome phone for those who want to play all the latest and greatest games like ShadowGun without the game lagging.
The new Snapdragon S4 1.5 GHz dual-core processor is the fastest available in the market right now.
The display is gorgeous.
It is very good looking, very strong and is a pocket friendly device.
