You advertise a phone as "Scratch Proof" and "Made with Satellite Grade Metal", and give this, a coating which chips of for no reason whatsoever. Plus, it's shocking that even a month after release, there has been no fix/official statement made by HTC. WTF. In every other aspect, it's better than the X (for me). Even development is picking up for this device
Men are you living on Mars or something???
HTC made an official statement on this a couple of weeks ago and has accepted to (and actually has done) replace any device that shows chipping.....
HTC Touch Cruise 09------>HTC Desire S--------->HTC One X

Fear is in the eye of the beholder....

Anyway, that's great news, even if they are a couple of weeks old! ;)

So did i, one x is superb and the specs are impressive, but (from a tactile and first impresssion point of view) the one s blew me off my feet..the sensation of that case is incredible, the one x's chassis feels like plastic when holding both in your hand compared to the one s and it's soooo slim (but at the same time feels firm and well put together in your hand). Even though the one x has better specs and hardware i would choose the one s just because of the way it fits the palm of your hand. Anyway, i think a purchase decision shouldn't be made before holding and playing around on both.

So far I have been able to play only with the one X and I must say that i was impressed.The size was not so big that I could not tolerate.Unfortunately the phone was attached with cord to a wall to avoid someone stealing it so I cant be 100% sure how it fits on my hand although I held it sort of.
Certainly I will not make any decision unless I have the chance to play with the One S as well.
Unfortunatelly that is not available yet in my town but hopefully this week will be.
I am puzzled by the small size of the memory though and the price difference is not too big from One X (its around 50 euros)

Looking at the reviews there is no doubt that this is a great device however ONE S also is looking very well and I am starting to think that it could be smarter to go for the ONE S instead of ONE X.
So I would like to have your opinion should I go for ONE X or ONE S.
If I decide ONE S is the differene compared to my DS worth spending the money?
I think One x
