AT&T and T-Mobile confirm the launch of Windows Phone 8X by HTC
By Florin on 20 Sep 12Announced earlier today alongside the Windows Phone 8S, the Windows Phone 8X by HTC is the Taiwanese company’s new WP flagship handset.
Not long after HTC’s announcement, now both AT&T and T-Mobile have confirmed that they would offer the 8X in the US. AT&T said it’s going to sell the handset “within the coming months”. T-Mobile isn’t more specific, either, saying the new HTC smartphone is “coming soon”, and allowing interested users to register for further info here.
The HTC 8X is obviously a direct competitor to Nokia’s Windows Phone 8 flagship (the Lumia 920), as it has a similar set of features, including: a 4.3 inch S-LCD2 display with 1280 x 720 pixels, 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm MSM8960 processor, 1GB of RAM, 8MP rear camera, 2.1MP front-facing camera, and 16GB of internal memory (expandable via MicroSD). The 8X also comes with Beats Audio technology, being the world’s first Windows Phone device to have this feature.
