HTC DESIRE X : Release Date and Specs

HTC DESIRE X

The HTC DesireX  is to be placed above the Desire C, but below the HTC One V, in HTCs line of products. HTC is yet to confirm it but, the Desire X is likely to be in the shops for just £15-£20 a month on contract, and if you give the nice lady in the shop between £180-£200 you can walk out of the shop with one on a pay as you go deal.

The HTC Desire X release date is set for mid-September in the UK, so it won't be long before I get one so that I can give a full Gadgets&Stuff hands on review. I will of course keep you updated, or you could subscribe to this blog.
