Abstract: The One X and One XL may be HTC's flagship Android phones of 2012, but the One S will definitely turn some heads. Constructed from a unibody aluminium frame that's just 7.6mm thick, the mid-range One S boasts many of the same features as its more expensiv...
The HTC One S is a solid phone that, while not being the flagship HTC Android product this year, still delivers a (mostly) fast and fluid user experience in a portable package with great battery life. While there are some minor software and audio/image qu...
If it's not clear by now, let's put it on the record. We really liked the HTC One S, and it's one of the best smartphones released in Australia so far in 2012. We would only rank it below the One XL (because of its 4G speeds) and Samsung's Galaxy S III (...
Slim and light; Feels very solid; Excellent camera;
No upgradeable memory; Metal back is painted and will chip if dropped;
HTC's One S proves itself to be a decent little handset, packaging good looks, solid build, and some decent performance in a relatively small package.If the bigger 4.7 inch screens are a touch too big for your hands or you're not keen to spend big, you ma...
Same, sleek shape as One X. Excellent AMOLED screen. Solid performance on Android ICS
Poor battery life. Non-user-accessible battery. No microSD or HDMI
Battery life is the Achilles' heel of the HTC One S, hampering an otherwise sleek and solidly performing smartphone, and making it one for light users only....
The WhistleOut Opinion The HTC One S might not be the best phone out on the market right now, but it's an impressive piece of hardware. In its price range we can't think of any current phones that we'd recommend more highly. The dual-core 1.5GHz proces...
Slim, svelte and beautiful, Built for Ice Cream Sandwich, Loads of widgets, Excellent battery life
Limited memory, no SD slot, MicroSIM is a pain for some, Keyboard has seen better days, Call quality can be slightly tinny:
There are few phones we play with where we think that we have the complete package and would happily give five stars. The HTC One S would have had five stars had it not been for the 16GB memory cap and non-HD screen. We'd have even settled for 32GB in th...
Thin and stylish design, Excellent performance, Great camera software
Display can't match some rivals, No memory expansion, Inconsistent Sense UI
The HTC One S certainly doesn't look or feel inferior to the flagship One X. A lower resolution display is the main differentiator, but the One S makes up for that with a design that's more comfortable to hold and better battery life. If the One X's size...
If you're already on T-Mobile, seeking an upgrade, then totally. It's fast, sleek and pretty excellent. If you're in between contracts, then it's not worth switching over for. The HTC One X on AT&T and the HTC Evo 4G LTE on Sprint are both better phones...
