A closer look at the HTC Desire X (pictures)
CNET UK's Natasha Lomas gets her hands on the new Desire X, a midrange Android smartphone with a bit of power under the hood.
Kent German
Kent was a senior managing editor at CNET News. A veteran of CNET since 2003, he reviewed the first iPhone and worked in both the London and San Francisco offices. When not working, he's planning his next vacation, walking his dog or watching planes land at the airport (yes, really).
The Desire X's design is similar to HTC's One series. It runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with HTC's Sense UI.
The main menu shows a traditional grid design.
The HTC comes in white and black versions. The camera lens is in the upper right corner of the Desire X's rear side.
Unlike the One X, the Desire X has a removable battery.
Behind the battery cover you'll also find slots for the SIM and the microSD card.
The Desire X has a thin profile. A volume rocker sits on the right side.
