Title: Review HTC Windows Phone 8S Smartphone
Post by: Redaktion on January 18, 2013, 07:35:33
Entry-level Windows. A dual-core processor, 512 MB RAM and a 4-inch screen for 260 euros. In cooperation with HTC Microsoft tries to pull smartphone users away from the Android and iOS camp. But is Windows Phone 8 with weaker hardware still fast enough and competitive?

This phone is having some serious issues. I got replacement 3 times, and problem wasn't resolve. With poor HTC support I was forced to change this phone for Nokia Lumia 610. To see details visit http://myhtcproblems.com .

Loved my Radar, lots of great features, but my wife accidentally broke it, so I replaced it with the 8s. I feel like it is a step backwards in many ways. No forward camera, battery does not last as long, no panoramic, sound quality is lesser. Just not as good, and I thought tech got better with each newer model. Not so here.

 :( Not happy with WP8 HTC 8S .. I Know you get what you pay for, but compared to Galaxy, it takes twice as long to do ANYTHING ..like bring up an App, or take a picture.. It has no CTL key on the virtual keypad, you cannot sync Outlook contacts with WIN7 PC (like WM6 used to ) as I DON'T want all my info syncing via cloud.. I want to do this offline for security reasons. IMHO, WP8 has LOST much functionality that WM6 had (eg file explorer.. the list is endless) ..RIP MS WP8 forever
