Default [EXCLUSIVE] HTC One S Unboxing video

Hy guys, we just received an HTC One S and we expect to release our review at the end of the week. Meanwhile, we made a very quick unboxing video.

This is the original retail version (but unfortunately no commercial packaging, because the smartphone is expected to be released in a couple of weeks in France)
The phone comes with new HTC earphones (no Beats, ask your carrier if they plan any Beats earphones offer).

More details here on HTC-HUB.com (this is a french website but you can translate it with the dedicated button on the right side)

thanks for sharing!

sadly i can't understand a word. maybe you could do some english videos too as i fear that i won't be able to learn french in the next few days

any first impressions about build quality/feel (it'd expext both to be nothing short of excellent) and the browser performance (which is very important for me because i use my phone quite a lot to browse the web) in comparison to other high profile devices?!

thank you!

I am very concerned about this actually, I am planning a upgrade to the One s when it comes out in the uk.

Now seeing as they dont have the phone even in the warehouse yet at carphone warehouse no staff can give me any details on the phone, same applies for phones 4 u.
I am quite concerned that if I go via carphone warehouse or phones 4 u that the handset won't ome with the urbeats headphones like the sensation xe and xl did, which is strange considering that the one s and one x are beats audio phones.

Now the only network I know that has guaranteed that beats headsets wil come with the phone is vodafone uk but it is limited to the first 10,000 pre orders. I was told after that then the phone comes with normal non beats headphones.

the only problem I have going with vodafone is I dont know if the phones have the vodafone software on it and wont know until the phones are out by which time will be too late to order one with beats headphones.

@jodue - I see the German unboxing is of the black "micro arc oxidized" version, while earlier the French video shows the "gradient anodized" version. Thx.

i wouldn't worry too much about the beats headphones. unless you are a extrem audiophile i'd suspect that you will be equally satisfied with some good headphones for 30-40 euros ...

It looks awesome.. Hope it hits India soon and with a decent price (below 30k) :).. Was planning on buying the S2 but was very disappointed with support given to S1.. Time to change ..
