HTC Windows Phone 8X is rather compact with its 4.3" 720p screen. It measures 132.4 x 66.2 x 10.1mm and weighs 130g. The HTC Windows Phone 8X (now that's a mouthful) uses a polycarbonate unibody, similar to that of the One X.

Going back to the screen, it's a Super LCD 2 unit with Gorilla Glass 2 protection and it's laminated to reduce glare.
The HTC Windows Phone 8X is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 chipset with two Krait cores clocked at 1.5GHz, Adreno 225 GPU and 1GB of RAM. It runs Microsoft's latest phone OS, Windows Phone 8 (as the name quite clearly indicates).
The camera on the back should be familiar to HTC users - 8MP BSI sensor, f/2.0 aperture and 28mm field of view (in 35mm terms). It contains a dedicated HTC ImageChip and can shoot 1080p video with stereo sound.
There's a 2.1MP front-facing camera too, which can also record1080p videos and makes use of the ImageChip.
Having mentioned sound, HTC has included its trademark Beats Audio sound enhancement, but no Beats headset as is the norm with some of its Android phones.
The HTC Windows Phone 8X comes with 16GB of built-in storage, which you can expand with a microSD card.
For connectivity, the HTC's WP8 flagship relies on dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, NFC, Bluetooth 2.1, microUSB and 3.5mm audio jack.
The Windows Phone 8X will become available in the beginning of November, covering 150 major carriers in 50+ countries, but HTC's press release was mum on price. There will be four color versions - California Blue, Graphite Black, Flame Red and Limelight Yellow.

Look like lumia

Straight away they announce the availability. Nokia, take notice please.
This phone is a heaven sent for camwhoring.

The marketing genius me just had an idea - Samsung "1st to unveil WP8", Nokia "1st to unveil working WP8", HTC "1st to unveil WP8 with pricing & availability" at Windows Phone Family everyone can be a first. HAHAHAHAHA

4.3" I'll pass. Waiting for 4.7".

htc lost his sense. LoL

Ativ S then?

4.7" kinda huge. i think the best screen size will be 4"

different ppl like dfferent size...even got ppl like galaxy note size...

for me 4.3" is the best....

i m using galaxy note... dat y..... kinda sad....

size 5" = note or table

size 4.0 ~ 4.8 = still acceptable as smartphone.

once you adapt to 4.8" very hard to downgrade. if you look at my history .. 2003 BIG > small > middle small > BIG

So 4.5 won't be troublesome to carry around?

why htc and nokia WP device all design also like rectangular shape ?
and also so many colour to choose, lol
but I don't know why 8x only 4.3 inch, at least 4.5
I will feel it very small as now using s3 =.=

to TS, the topic description is htc windows phone 8 flagship, not windows 8

TS, why don't I see anywhere stating that the 8X is equipped with MicroSD card slot? Are you sure about that?

my sos is gsmarena.

official

as u say, micro sim. no micro sd.

Too bad not pureview....

well, like i said once you've adapt to 4.5 or 4.8" you wont be bother about troublesome carying around.


same like when 1st gen wp7 release, only carry radar 3.8" and HD7 4.3" later follow by Titan 4.7"

Urm, bro, look at your own first post. You stated it is equipped with MicroSD which is the reason to my question.

Not entirely. you see the weather and time tile (although the time info repetitive) is similar to HTC Sense.


Evil is waiting for HTC Titan 4.7 WP8 replacement.

I personally think 920 and 8X are "lower" high end devicess. HTC and Nokia will eventually launch better spec SUPERPHONEs which will become the real flagship WP8 devices for the two companies.

yes, very indeed i need max 4.8". shall wait for next release of WP8
