"We are taking the HTC One™ X to a new level with the
introduction of the new HTC One™ X+," said Peter Chou, CEO of HTC Corporation. "Our
customers will have super-fast browsing, an even better camera and
more immersive entertainment with Beats Audio."
Performance, Endurance and Storage
Featuring a 1.7 GHz quad-core NVIDIA®
Tegra® 3 AP37 processor and 64GB of internal storage,
the HTC One™ X+ LTE version is up to 67% faster than the HTC One™
X[1] LTE, making the HTC One™ X+ the best rated Android phone on
the market. Developed to be lightning fast, the HTC One™ X+ enables
quicker web browsing, fluid gaming and graphic rendering, and
speedy downloads, providing effortless usage on the go.
In addition to its increased performance speeds, the HTC One™ X+
introduces extended performance with the inclusion of a 2100 mAh
battery, giving you up to 50% (6 hours) more talk time, and longer
to browse the web and enjoy your favorite music and videos[2].
Imaging, Music and Movies
Combining the amazing camera capabilities of its
predecessor[3]* with a series of intelligent features, powered by
Sense™ 4+, the HTC One™ X+ has been designed to deliver the most
premium mobile experience. The newly launched Self Portrait mode on
the front camera helps you capture high quality photos by
intuitively detecting the human face at various angles and applying
subtle enhancements to skin and eyes. Sightseeing mode makes sure
you'll always be ready to capture the moment - one touch of the
power button bypasses the lock screen and launches directly into
the camera. Two new views in the Gallery display images and

Exclusively available on HTC smartphones, Beats Audio™ provides
authentic, studio-quality sound that delivers the most immersive
sound experience with an enhanced audio profile, crisper vocals and
detailed high notes for your music, games, movies and videos.
Making it easier to listen to music out loud, and through Sense™
4+, the HTC One™ X+ introduces a new Tap and Go function, which
allows you to connect the phone and your music to Beats speakers[4]
when you tap them. To disconnect, it is just another quick tap.
Providing exclusive access to thousands of movies through HTC
Watch 2.0, the HTC One™ X+ will appeal to both the avid film fan
and the casual movie-goer. Combined with the introduction of video
hub, another benefit of Sense™ 4+, for the first time you will be
able to put all your video entertainment in a single place.
Easy Set Up
A new feature in the HTC One™ X+ is HTC Get Started, a new
web service that guides the user painlessly through the set-up and
personalisation process from a desktop web browser. Designed
to enhance the experience of setting up a phone for the first time,
this feature ensures that users will get the most out of their new
phone from the beginning. With the touch of a button, the
user's phone will reflect the settings and apps that were chosen on
the Web. Visit start.htc.com for more details.
