Sometimes its best to say nothing at all, if you have nothing constructive to say

Actually the review comes from androidpit.com / androidpit.de

nice review but it would be even better if there was speech and explanation of the features

hey just noticed ur in Nicosia too lol.
Anyway i wouldnt call this a review sice he doesnt discuss the phone. Still waiting for Engadget and gozmodo's reviews.

I think reviewers like Engadget and Techradar will have the right to post their final reviews next week, knowing that the Desire will be released in some countries the 25 and 26 March, like they did with the Legend ( 48h before releasing it in Belgium)

How does this protector compare to the ones from InvisibleShield?
you seem pretty desperate for people to subscribe don't you? If people like your material then they will, but don't shove junk down their throat.
I'm not desperate.... I just got this from Clear-Coat and obviously i don't have 2 HD's so I am giving one away.....
what is wrong with that?
plus i have gained like 17 subsribers from this...
the other 100 or so love my videos...
and you should look at them too...
they are quite informative....
I joined up for the list, i look forward to some more vid's on the hd. Can never be enough of them lol. Have you got a vid done of the install process for the clear coat, i could not see that there. Also nice touch with the 20% discount offer for us, many thanks there.
So whats your personal views now you got the clearcoat ?
I have finished the install videos... and just need to upload them... probably to day or tommarow...

lol - I have to agree - its a bit like your beginning to spam the forum
I hope your open to criticism because I have a couple of points to make about your videos:
A)- Stop umming and erring
B)- Get a better way of showing the Touch HD screen in the videos
Please don't take this the wrong way - any presenter should be open to criticism as its what makes you better - hth
Please, can somebody tell me - what exactly is the attraction about watching some-one opening a delivery box?
I was actually sad enough to watch this through to the end, because I thought something might happen in it. But no, it's just the opening of some packaging.
Is this what is meant by being a geek???
their is no attraction...
I just wan't to let my viewers now what I have to review for them soon...
just to keep them updated
thank you
lol

how is it against the Martin Fields coat?
Love it!!!
I just posted the review up on my channel....
the texture is amazing!!
recommend it to anyone!
subscribed.
Nice update, how long did it take to install the clear coat ?, i guess the corners are a pain to do, and practice is needed, so temped to get one of these to safe guard my phone.
Thank again for update.
well it took about 20 minutes for me to do.. the back side.
The front took like 5 minutes.. so it was easy...
but the good thing was. If I messed up I could peeel it right off and try again.

just wait 1-3 days and you will get it, .. as many people will get their hands on it soon
in the mean time, i highly suggest you read this review about the Legend from GSM Arena
when i read it, i almost forgot that it is the Legend's review not the Desire's they are pretty similar you know, and lots of things you will find their related to our beloved Desire
cheers
some XDA dudes will ge their Desire tomorrow and Saturday, they will certainly post their views.
Do remember the legend has less RAM, a smaller screen and a slower processor, and it will not run flash 10.1 other than that they seem really similar.
It looks doubtful that the Legend will ever support 802.11n where as the chip in the desire does support it and we are just waiting for software (official or cooked).
In that video I posted, the HTC UK rep says that the legend is to be considered the new Hero whilst the Desire is a new bread.
Since we all know that threatening to leave a network and asking for a PAK code will result in a free Desire you'd only take the legend if your spend was so low they give you the PAK code and say good bye (you still don't have to leave) or you want to buy it sim free.
That GSM Arena says the FM radio has RDS.
The mumbles I've seen about the Desire say the Desire doesnt have RDS.
I wonder which one is right.
Some Asian countries doesn't have RDS at all
What is rd5?

[REF] HTC One X Official Reviews thread

Since I believe that reviews for this awesome new device will start appearing very soon, this thread will be used to post all such information.
Remember to post links to the review itself rather than copy stuff from the review itself in the thread.
Awesome, just what I'll be looking for to make sure I stay happy with my One X pre-order
Went for it in black, really hoping to see the final build for black (or grey) soon - Reviews out this week?
With the car charger being black, as well as accessories and all my current gadgets (Vita/Laptop/PC), I simply don't want to go white.
waiting for gsmarena and phonearena , if they turned out positive , this will be my first high end android phone for sure
Keep an eye in the new (English) swedroid.com witch I think have some of the best android reviews out there. Any dates on when the reviewers will get their phones?
Best video reviews I have found to date

Yes, the original Swedish website have the most detailed and best reviews I have ever seen. But the reviews are written in Swedish first, and then translated to English afterwords, so they aren't going to be the first ones out, but will give you the most out of a review. Just look up their Sony Xperia S review.

But they introduced the english site two days ago. I think they'll publish new reviews in both languages simultaneously. If they are born pre 1990 they are probably good at english and translations won't take time. Post 1990 hardly know swedish.

Okay, it may not take so long time to translate the reviews, but Swedriod do usually take a bit longer time to test their devices, just because they are more detailed. So the review wont show up there first, but will have lots of more content then other reviews.
Here's an overview of the device with a couple of HTC reps. Not really a review but this video has confirmed the notion that this will be my next phone.
http://youtu.be/wzrl6fzXH24
Can't wait for it
This phone seems really awesome... I'm only concerned about the non replaceable battery after 3/400 hundred recharges (I think that it will need a recharge every 1 day, max 1.5 days..).. Very nice design, very smooth experience and very nice camera.. Thanks for the 3 videos on YouTube, very good

I don't know if it helps but Engadget did a hands on at MWC and they said " in a nutshell, we're blown away.." so that's a very good sign.

my One X review

Hello all, I know traditionally i only review samsung devices as a samsung mobiler i've decided to branch out a bit and share the love. So here's my review on the One x. Let me know what you think, i'm always taking your comments on board and trying to make my content better.
Out of interest it was filmed on a canon Eos 1100D rather than my galaxy s2 for a change. Hopefully you can tell the difference
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8JwiCQlxhg&feature=youtu.be
and a video of the two flavours of ICS on the galaxy nexus and the one X
http://youtu.be/V4Gidj5dEic
I also took some photos from different angles of the one x...find them at my blog here:
http://staceysamsungmobiler.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/htc-one-x.html
Here's a quick comparison of the screen on the Galaxy Nexus vs HTC one x. Which do you prefer?

Nice review Stacey!
I thought Mobilers always had access to the Samsung devices prior to general public. I clearly remember Dom and you had the SGS2 long (weeks/days) before the general public. Both of you guys had a popular thread before release of the SGS2 during last April/May.
Hey, PM me a photo of the SGS3 and the specs list...Trust me, I won't tell anyone!
Good reviews there and i love your english. Hope i will talk like that someday.
One thing to the Multitask. The thing you reviewed on the One X as Taskmanager ist the taskmanager. Its just a graphic gimmik to show main threads and easily jump from one to another. Search on the device applist for Taskmanager and then you see your real tasks and up to 9 tasks at once.
I realy love my One X but i think all Sense gimmiks are just made to look good. Usability is just on 2nd rank. For much Sense widgets i use alternatives.
nice review
thank you

Ahhyes ! I found it. Please I'll add a note to the description of the video. Thanks for pointing it out
A good video, just one word of advice:
When you want to show something on the screen, dont move the phone closer to the camera, it makes the image blurry.
Best is to just keep it the way it is, so that the image stays sharp and then once you're editing the video zoom in digitally!
That'll make the screen more readable
Thanka for the feed back, seriously guys this all helps me for when I make my next . My next purchase is a proper tripod for my camera lol
also added a quick comparison of super amoled vs super ips LCD2...see 1st post for url

It is ok, never had any problem with call volume. The headphones they give you are quite ok as well, so if you are in a really noisy situation, you can use them, but so far, never had a problem understanding the people I talked to on the phone.

I don't use the phone too much, but so far I haven't had any issues with call volume on either end. I've used my bluetooth quite a bit (compared to other methods), but even just on speaker while in the car I haven't had any complaints.
