HTC 8s Review

The Windows Phone 8S by HTC is the second device from HTC’s range of Windows Phone 8 hardware, and it fills out the lower end of the market with a cheaper device that contains understandably cheaper hardware.


HTC 8S Price in India is around 18,500/-






Key features

  • Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support
  • Dual-band 3G with 42 Mbps HSDPA and 5.7 Mbps HSUPA support
  • Windows Phone 8 OS
  • GPS receiver with A-GPS and GLONASS support
  • 4GB of inbuilt storage, microSD card slot
  • 4″ 16M-color S-LCD capacitive touchscreen of 480 x 800 pixel resolution
  • Scratch resistant Gorilla Glass 2 display
  • 5 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash, 720p@30fps video recording
  • Active noise cancellation with a dedicated mic
  • Built-in accelerometer and proximity sensor
  • Standard 3.5 mm audio jack
  • Impressively deep and coherent SNS integration throughout the interface
  • Bluetooth v3.0 with A2DP and EDR, file transfers
  • HTC exclusive apps
  • Xbox Live integration and Xbox management
  • Data Sense
  • microUSB port
  • Beats audio enhancements

Main disadvantages

  • Non user-replaceable battery
  • App catalog falls short of Android and iOS
  • No front-facing camera
  • No FM radio
  • No system-wide file manager
  • No voice-guided navigation
Granted, the Windows Phone 8S by HTC (as the smartphone’s official name goes) has the least capable hardware of all WP8 smartphones, but a dual-core Krait CPU device with the new-generation Adreno 305 GPU is not what we’d call underpowered. In fact, while the top dogs of its platform have to face Android rivals with double the computing power, this one is actually playing against equals.
