The HTC Titan II  tries, but doesn't quite succeed, to take the mantle of best Windows Phone away from the just-released Nokia Lumia 900. On paper, this is one impressive cell phone, with an incredible 16-megapixel camera, 4G LTE, and a massive screen. Unfortunately, the camera doesn't live up to... More

The HTC Titan II offers arguably the best hardware, found in a Windows Phone smartphone. Its 16MP camera unit and LTE network connectivity might even sway a few users away from devices, running on competing platforms. After all, Microsoft has been working hard to expand the Windows Phone ecosystem, with... More

The One S continues the good work HTC were doing with its Sensation series and the resulting handset is one that offers performance and style in a functional package. It seems that the manufacturer has decided that trimming-off some of the flashier aspects of its designs is worth it to improve performance... More

I’ve been fiddling around with the HTC One S for a few days now, and I have to say it’s stolen a little piece of my heart. The hardware is just about perfect, with a 4.3-inch qHD display and a slender aluminum unibody shell, and software like HTC’s Sense 4 overlay and Android 4.0 Ice... More

The HTC One V is a handsome smartphone - there are people on our team who think it's the best looking of the One series. And it's not really all that underpowered. It's just that the pressure of dual-cores may be too much to handle. But then, nothing beats a metal unibody if you want to look cool under... More

An all-round impressive handset, the HTC One V is a smartphone that has filtered down a selection of previously used specs to a new budget-friendly price tag, packaging it in an impressive and desirable shell in the process.

Overall there is a lot to like about the HTC One V. It is a well-designed phone, small in modern terms, but still giving you enough space to interact with the display, accepting the fact that you'll have to live with doing more zooming in webpages if you're browsing on the go. HTC Sense is also a great... More

With a design that's as cute as a button, a great screen, adequate performance and a cracking Android 4.0 OS, the HTC One V is a really exciting mid-range handset. Sure it would be nice if the camera and processor were both a little bit better but overall we've completely fallen for the combination of... More

The One X is the most impressive attempt by HTC yet to create the best smartphone with Android OS, and it can be judged that this company has taken over the title from Samsung's Galaxy S II -- at least until the Galaxy S III is introduced. With its 720p display, a quad-core processor, modern and elegant... More

The HTC One S for T-Mobile is by no means a perfect device. The biggest problem, in my mind, is the inconsistent voice quality I experienced. Almost every other facet of the device is excellent. The hardware is simply great, the display good, the battery life good, and the network performance excellent.... More

I'm completely in love with a number of things about the One V. Its design looks fantastic, feels hard-wearing, and is distinctive enough to stand out from the crowd when compared to most of the other handsets in stores today. It's also one of the most affordable ways to grab a handset running Android... More

Remembering all of the recent fond memories we’ve made with the European version of the HTC One S, T-Mobile’s version also delights us in many ways. Finally, T-Mobile customers will have an updated HTC offering that’s delivers that great balance of performance and features – even... More

If you’re a T-Mobile customer, then the HTC One S is hands-down one of the best smartphone options out there. The handset is lightweight without being flimsy, has a super-speedy interface, and one of the best camera’s we’ve seen on a smartphone.

In many ways the HTC One S is the Android smartphone loyal T-Mobile subscribers deserve. It's slim, fast, and runs up-to-date software. At $199 the HTC One S may not be the most affordable handset in T-Mobile's roster. Still, as the freshest phone to hit the carrier's lineup in recent memory,... More

The HTC Titan 2 is the largest phone I've reviewed, and it definitely has its charms. Yes, the screen is fuzzy at times, and the video recording may not be the best, but the Titan 2's LTE connectivity and excellent picture-taking capabilities more than make up for those faults. If you think the phone... More

The HTC One S is a great little phone. It’s not a flagship, but I don’t think that HTC intended for it to be (or maybe they did?). While it may not have the full-blown HD screen, tons of storage, NFC chip, or LTE connectivity, it has one of the better (if no the best) mobile processors on... More

Super thin and light with an attractive unique style. No problems with call quality or battery life. Premium materials add an upscale feel and 4G speeds are fast, when you can get a 4G signal. Photo software is top-notch. 25GB of free storage from Dropbox with purchase.
Protruding camera lens is begging... More

T-Mobile plans to offer the HTC One S for $199.99 on April 25. We can safely say that the One S will be the best smartphone available from the carrier when it becomes available, and it will likely hold that title for some time.

HTC's One S is a beautifully designed Android phone with an awful lot going for it. The phone is thin and light, with a modern, premium-feeling design. It has impressive performance, a phenomenal camera and great battery life to boot. The One S doesn't have the absolute best display available, but it's... More

I won’t beat around the bush: when the HTC One S launches on April 25th for $199.99, it will be one of the best smartphones T-Mobile has ever launched. In fact, it might be the best.
HTC had a lot to prove with its One-series smartphones, and in terms of hardware and software, it delivered. There... More
