overall good

Asman Singh (Jun 5, 2014) on Gadgets 360

good: Thee Htc one S has awesome touch feature. you will get addicted to the feather touch of htc. when i had initially purchased it, all my friends had mocked me, but now i am happy for purchasing it. The phone does not gets hanged at all as compared to samsung galaxy and sony experia(friends review). the battery life after up-gradation of software is awesome. it can last for more than a day with call and internet.Without net connection it can last for more than 2 days.It has got an intelligent camera functionality. Bad: the only bad thing about the phone is its front camera. wish htc improves it in its next product. By the way i purchased the product at rs.20,000. so i think the price quotation is wrong here
