Traditionally March is the month when we see numerous new mobile phones released with every manufacturer keen to try and outshine their rivals. We have started to see some of the brand new 2012 handsets launched and one of the most impressive that we have encountered is the excellent new HTC One X. We take a closer look at this exciting new device.

The HTC One X uses a high quality screen capable of displaying excellent image quality. The phone boasts a very large 4.7 inch SLCD screen which will appeal to multi media fans and games lovers. A maximum resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels can be displayed which means that the One X can show a pixel density of an impressive 312PPI. Scratch resistant glass if used on the model to help prevent the phone picking up the inevitable scratches and damage that can occur after several months of continuous use. Behind the screen there are an array of sensors designed to enhance the user experience on this model. An accelerometer chip detects the orientation of the device and adjust the screen accordingly while a proximity sensor will automatically lock the screen during a call. The HTC One X is the not the smallest model available at 134 x 69.9 x 8.9mm but the slim depth measurement does stand out. The model also weighs just 130 grammes thanks to the new Polycarbonate chassis that is used.

Last year, we saw HTC incorporate Beats Audio technology on a number of devices and we are delighted that this excellent feature is once again present on the new HTC One X. Music fans will love this feature as it helps the handset to deliver a natural depth of sound that you would not normally be able to achieve from a mobile device. A high quality pair of headphones is also included as part of the package to help make the One X one of the ultimate phones for music playback. If you are looking to load your device with hundreds of audio tracks then you are going to need ample storage capacity and the One X does not disappoint by offering a massive 32GB. The phone also come supplied with 25GB of free cloud storage thanks to a new partnership between HTC and Dropbox. This means that a total 57GB total storage capacity is available on this very impressive new device.

The HTC One X is destined to become one of the most popular phones released this year. The large display offers superb quality which makes the device perfect for web browsing and mobile gaming while the incorporation of Beats Audio technology makes the phone ideal for handling a variety of different types of music.
