HTC 8S is a very good device at its price(below 20,000) and is a worthy choice over many Android phones that dot the market. But it is not without its compromises.
Bright colours, good design, fast performance
Just like the 8X, the flagship Windows phone from HTC, the 8S has a smart and colourful personality. The design language is also similar. The 8S too has tapered edges, albeit a bit thicker compared to those on the more expensive phone. Interestingly, this gives the 8S a more balanced design and makes it a better fit in the hand.
If you are out in the market hunting for a smartphone for less than Rs 20,000 HTC 8S should be on your shortlist. But before you pick it make sure that you do not mind what it lacks. Apps are not as plentiful as what Android phones have, experience with Google services is poor and if you are a heavy Twitter users, this is not the device for you. Similarly, you cannot make video calls with it.
But if these limitations are not a deal-breaker for you, 8S is a good choice. It is not in the league of expensive Android phones or iPhone but it doesn't have to be. At a price of Rs 19,260 it is a solid device that is better than similarly-priced Android phones because of its fast performance, very good screen and a great design.
