The phone&#8217;s display is particularly impressive, boasting a 1280 x 720p resolution, but it isn&#8217;t too big either &#8211; just 4.3&#8243; makes this one of the most compact HD displays you&#8217;ll find. The display is also Super LCD2 as on the acclaimed HTC One X, rather than the Pentile Super AMOLED displays that Samsung prefers.<\/p>\n<p>The top-notch display is powered by a strong Snapdragon S4 dual-core processor and 1 GB of RAM &#8211; a considerable upgrade from the single-core phones of Windows 7! The phone also supports 16 GB of internal storage and includes an 1800 mAh battery to keep all that new hardware going longer.<\/p>\n<p>Even the cameras on the 8X are unique. The rear camera uses the same Image Chip processor as the HTC One X and has an 8 megapixel sensor for great looking pictures. The 8X&#8217;s front camera is impressive too, sporting a backside illuminated 88\u00b0 wide-angle lens and a 2.1 megapixel sensor. That&#8217;s the best front-facing camera on the market, which is brilliant for video calling and taking photos.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the Windows Phone 8X by HTC comes with a speaker amplifier that makes the loudspeaker that much louder &#8211; you&#8217;ll never miss a notification again! The Beats audio equaliser is also present, giving you an option for punchier bass and crisper vocals.<\/p>\n<p>The Windows Phone 8X by HTC should prove to be a popular Windows Phone at the top of the market, offering all of the big features and fluid performance you&#8217;d expect from Windows Phone 8 &#8211; you can see why Microsoft is calling it the &#8216;signature phone&#8217; of Windows Phone 8.<\/p>\n<p>Here at Mobile Fun, we&#8217;ve got a wide range of accessories for the new handset &#8211; we&#8217;ve got <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/8x\/covers\">HTC 8X covers<\/a>, car holders, chargers, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/8x\/screen-protectors\">HTC 8X screen protectors<\/a> and way more.
