HTC One S Review: A Surprisingly Powerful Android Smartphone

At the same time as HTC unveiled its flagship model, the One X, the company also presented the One S -- a device which has often been overshadowed by its more powerful brother. The One S has a smaller display, a lower resolution, and a slower dual-core processor. However, it does come in an elegant metal casing and is currently one of the slimmest smartphones available on the market.
