I had HTC Desire, and one thing I loved about that phone. Whenever I had a scratch on the back of the phone all of what I had to do was just rubbing it with my hands and it just disappears.
When I bought Motorola RAZR it had Kelvar fabrics on the back and I really couldn't put a scratch on it from my daily use but the plastic bezel around it started to look as if it's 2 years old phone, I could easily get it scratched by just putting it on my desk. So I sold it. And I'm thinking in getting HTC One X now.
So, I heard that HTC One X is built from polycarbonite plastic and I really have no idea what is that. Is it's build material close to the desire's? I don't want to put a case on my phone and I don't want scratches from daily ues, I just want something like my old Desire.
One X is more similar to the white poly-carbonate parts on the Sensation XL
so the answer is no its hard to scratch the rubbery back at worst might be like your old Desire or like Sensation XL which doesn't even leave marks
as for the white parts an the rest of the frame is sturdy poly-carbonate with real color wether grey or white, its not coated or painted and hence if a deep scratch will only show the same color under it
The only part of concerns might be the glossy sides which might not surivive as the rest
and finally the screen is protected well with gorilla glass 2.5 and metallic frame around the screen

I wonder what happens if you scratch the sides, actually. What's underneath? The same matte finish as the back?
In that case I'm totally filing mine down!!!!!!

That or some sort of metal.
I've sanded the pinkish paint of the sides of my desire and it looks awesome!
I hope we can do the same to the one x.

no metal in one x all you get is the one piece of same color polycarbonate below the coating

HTC are saying that it is stronger than steel even though it's like a plastic. I'll see when I get the phone.

I think they are referring to the micro arc oxidation process on 1S. Early reviews have shown that the polycarbonate body on 1X isn't that sturdy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXqdiCe2_yk&t=1m

What about the body? I've seen Gorilla glass tests before, but this new hardened plastic thing is another issue.

ohhhh my mistake! I have nothing protecting the lense on the one x at the moment. I thought you meant the lense on the dslr i used to film it. But yeah i see the problem...i might end up butchering a screen protector for it
impressive part 2, i wonder if the the grey version's backside would survive
Stacy, I love you. You're mad but fell safer after watching that video.
I had some scratches on my screen which isn't visible except under sunlight. I put my phone in my pockets alone. My keys are in a seperaate pocket. And I as far as I know gorilla glass is suposed to be anti-scratch. And I remmember that I read somewhere that I can ask for a replacement if I had a scratch on the gorilla glass. So anyone haf similar issue and managed to get a replaceme?

Yeah, I'm looking for the HC C700 too. No one seems to have it right now. It appears to be the thinnest case at the moment, you can tell by how it curves outward along the camera protrusion. Most other cases are close to flush around the camera. If they made a darker version for the gray model, it would be perfect IMO.
I saw this case on Ebay weeks ago but was very pricey £99 (WTH?) then I found other sites offering a pre order. Now I see it available on HTC website
Anyone bought this ??
Yeah my One X should be arriving soon and I was wondering what people thought about the quality of this case

The hard shell that attachs to the back of the phone is very thin, much thinner than a case mate barely there case! Its plastic and kind of transparent with a bit of frosting! The flip part of the case is white leather or something very similar and the inside of the flip is slightly padded and is a light grey fine microfiber material which sits nicely on the screen when closed protecting it! The hard case part has a cut out for the speaker at the back and one for the volume rocker, the flip part has a cut out for the charger so you can charge the phone with the flip open or closed! I have dropped my phone 3 times and the case protected it perfectly no marks on the case or the phone! The hard back adds a mm in thickness and the flip adds maybe 3mm so overall still a slim profile! I will upload photos when I get home from work with the hox in the case!

Most likely a fake, sad thing is the material is probably less likely to scratch the phone than the OEM one!

I ordered the same grey black grey one. Its ok and it almost feels like the oem one.
