2012 has been the year of gadgets and phones. This year, we witnessed launch of several android smartphones from several manufacturers. Android has really grown and the companies want to leave no space empty to lure customers of all kinds. Going along the line, HTC One X+ is announced officially as upgrade to the successfully selling HTC One X flagship android phone from HTC. This is not a major upgrade. We think that HTC launched this phone to make its upbeat leadership in the smartphone market segment. With more storage capacity, high-pumped processor, extra-juice packed battery, it promises good enhancement in performance whereas in design, camera and audio features, it retains the iconic charisma of HTC One X.

HTC One X+ Specification

The LTE version of HTC One X+ is supposed to provide more efficient performance by 67% in comparison to HTC One X LTE. RAM is still 1 GB (we wished they upgraded it to 2 but otherwise it is). This phone is marked for customers who really do a lot on their phones and to meet their needs, this mobile contains inbuilt storage capacity of whopping 64 GB.

The lens is surrounded by metallic casing rather than plastic casing. Furthermore, the front camera recording quality is improved which can capture snaps upto 1.6 megapixel with face detection and certain automatic tweaking features and shoot 720p video at 30fps. The speed of capture has also increased, thanks to the improved hardware capabilities. For improved sound quality, an audio feedback amplifier is added to the loudspeaker but not the the headphone jack.
