Hi,
I want to buy a HTC one X and I heard there are differences of the software and hardware (even quality) if you buy it in different countries . I have the chance to buy a European Version or an HongKong Version ...... Does anybody know the differences? and which one is better?
Thanks for your Help!
PS.: Rogers & AT&T I know ....
They are made in two factories Taiwan and Shanghai, but there doesn't seem to be anything we can correlate to that.
I don't suppose you'll notice a difference, unless you want to input Cantonese. The firmware updates have been slower to arrive in Hong Kong.
Hi,
I'm in Australia, I purchased my grey HOX mid May from online store Kogan. It came from HK, it's a HT24DW and have no quality issues come up. I also has FW 1.29.751.12. I'm mostly happy with it so far as I came from 3 years of iPhone.
Cheers
Thanks 4 helping. And whats the difference between Shanghai and Taiwan Version?

Please help. Whats the difference between SH and HT products?
Thanks
Where Im from, we get the HT version and so far a high percentage of it has defects, not too sure bout the SH version thou. On a side note, European versions get updates faster compared to the SEA region.
HT versions are made in Taiwan
SH versions are made in China

Take your pakage, and somewhere on the sticker on it should stay "Maide in Taiwan" or "Made in China"
Or if your serial number starts with "HT" (for example HT23NW.........) then it is maid in Taiwan ...
So which one would be the better joice? HT or SH?

There is no prove that there is any differences between each ... i have the HT one and never had any problems with them.

the only difference is the price the HT price is higher than HS about 45$ but they r the same no diff. at all i have HS and yesterday i did OTA update it's been better rosie lag fixed and restored 5 giga now its cool the camera is amazing no sense loops the sense become ultra smooth too
Edit >> there's a difference in the phone case the HT came with a white small case " plastic" but the other "HS" came with a slim box package " hard paper "...
SH Vs HT No difference except....
We have three phones 2 HT series and 1 SH. The button light on SH one is much brighter. Does that mean anything

Hi guys. As HOX is facing bugs and issues, I searched a lot about it and I recently came to know that Taiwan manufactured model is performing better as compared to those manufactured in china. Still Confused with it

same as that.
Same here Taiwan.. zero build defects, non to mild software issues (not related to the manufacturing)
mine is from Taiwan as well, it is functioning just fine. I have had no problems yet, and I dont expect to have anything hardware related. Just software if anything.
I ordered 2 white One X's. Both are made in Taiwan. One got resizing screen issue and was sending back for replacement. Another one isn't has any issues(yet).

So it's clear that build quality of taiwan product is better. Guys please keep this in mind before buying. I am a bit dissapointed by HTC regarding the issues that are faced in such high end devices
i agree with you guys.
my experienced with my previous devices, htc hd2 (2 devices, taiwan and china), desire s (china), sensation (taiwan):
on hd2 the taiwan one works great but has dull screen colors, altough the china one has great screen colors, but distorted speaker on max volume, and already broke in less than a year (restarted in loop).
desire s, has a build quality defect, like backlight bleeding and there is a space between screen glass and the body. but works fine.
sensation, no problem at all.
i just wonder if there are chinise phones out there?
anyone got a chinese one?
mine is also taiwan and without, or jut with very little faults

Mine is Chinese and its working flawlessly. Only software issues are a problem.
Taiwan model here, sent back due to a host of build issues.
Chinese model and no problems.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Chinese model here minor issues with screen flickering and my wifi not connecting properly to my router at 40mhz (works fine on other routers and at 20mhz on my router).
China manufactured, everything's perfect apart from 1 virtually unnoticeable dead pixel.
China's manufactured here, 100% perfect, no build problems or anything. If anything, I think it's just the software.
I'm not new to HTC i owned my diamond for many years now but i wanted to got my new HTC ONE X
plz help me coz all the web sites sells the china version and i only trust the Taiwan version of any HTC
can any one tell me about a site that sells the Taiwanese one x?
i need a web site that somebody got his Taiwanese one x from it
HTC...... quietly brilliant
I don't think there's anywhere that will allow you to pick your phone by serial number. Get the phone and if anything is wrong with it return it for a replacement. I'd recommend Amazon as they've the best return service.
By the way, the China version seems to have less problems from what I can gather on the forums.
I had the diamond, the early days of sense, glad it has improved.

i need that phone badly
yup the chinese versions are bad, get the taiwan one
there is absolutely nothing wrong with my Chinese version.
it starts with SH23PW. i guess i got lucky?
Goto any mobile shop and choose HOX starting from ht serial number . You can check serial number from box.

You would not say that if you got my first handset. I had the yellow spot on mine and a few others in another forum has flickering issues with the Chinese handsets.

You can say the same thing about the Taiwanese models as well. It's a crapshoot as to whether or not you get a good phone from either country. We have no idea if Chinese or Taiwanese models are better because we're not privvy to HTC's returns records.
If you want one, order it from a reputable company and if it's defective, return it. It's as simple as that.

Well put it this way I'd rather get one made from Taiwan than CHina because China has bad QC compared to others.
I've been reading more chinese handsets having issues comapred to the ones made in Taiwan.

And I've read more Taiwanese models have had issues, therefore Taiwan must have crappier QC...
This is my point. It doesn't matter what you've read, because there's always going to be another thread saying the other model is worse. The best the OP can do is order one from a reputable website and return it if it's defective.

I don't agree sorry because everything that is made from china is just poor quality. You are entitled to your opinion. I know if I had a choice I would rather get a product made in Taiwan or Singapore over the ones made in China.

You are entitled to your own opinion as well, but saying "everything made from china is just poor quality" is an asinine statement.

My phone is an SH23 model (Chinese) and it's been perfect so far. Hopefully yours is too.
Mine is also SH23 and it's perfect.
Sh23 here.
All good since launch day!
My Desire HD was made in Taiwan and I too wanted a taiwanese HOX. Luckily the first phone I picked up in the store (one of the reasons I didn't buy it online was to check the sn before buying) was HT24 and it's flawless. I can totally understand why the OP wants a TW phone.

hi everyone, I think I found out how to see what manufacturing date you have. I found it in the HTC One S thread. You have to take a look at the Serial Number on your box, starting with S/N. The first four digits are the relevant ones. I have a HT23TTV00312. Like I said, the first four digits. In my case: HT23.
The number 3 means that it's the third month of the year, meaning March. I got this phone replaced for my old One V, that one had:HT24, meaning April. I regret that I sent my April One V back because the March version is even worse, gonna send this one back as well.
People over at the One S thread say this method of seeing the manufacturing date is 90% correct. So can you guys verify this? Do any of you have: HT25, meaning the month may?, I wonder if the may phones have problems like yellow spots.
Thanks!
I'm not sure bout my actual manufacture date but mine is HT23, not much problem except the rubber area gets extremely dark in colour after some use....
I've got HT23 and there is dust under my display and the headphone sound is terrible.
This would mean I already have the march version so it can't get much worse when I'll send it back
absolutely correct it is
my sn is SH25
which means may
and its correct my production is of may as it's already written on. our indian boxes thanks for sharing +

I have HT24 which is April and I have problems with the following:
-Speaker (I hear a *poc* sound now and then when in a call).
- Too spots of yellow color in the lower part of the screen
- Light leak from the buttons
- Incorrect placement of the back cover of the camera.
Tomorrow I will get my replacement hopefully it will be one made in may.

Well, I thought that it was march, but it was April. And I've replaced my phone with one from May and I have no problems (it is also imported from Asia). The only problem remaining now is that I cannot use one specific carrier because it is locked. I can use only Vodafone and Cosmote and I need Orange carrier!

The two first letters indicate what factory the phone has been made in. It's either HT or SH for production units, or MB for repair centre swap units.
First: HT24 - yellow spots
Second: HT23 - yellow spots
Third: (guy in service center give me to choice from 4 pieces of them) SH25 - no problems.
HT mean manufacture in Taiwan, SH manufacture in China.
My is HT25, except some really small light leak from the buttons I don't have any problems with it.

Howdy guys, just bought my One V to replace my desire.
Mine was bought in Calgary, Canada serial SH26 (June manufacture).
Had it since Monday morning, playing with it loooots, no problems so far. I even dropped it on the ice showing one of my speedskaters a burst shot of her corners, no damage!

hello members,
I've been waiting for quite a while to get HOX....at last time has arrived for me....
But for my bad luck, HOX from SH25 batches are only available in my area(INDIA).
So, I just want your opinion on this, as it from MAY batch, i'm doubtful about its hardware issues
the question is; SHOULD I BUY HOX FROM SH25 BATCH??
IS THERE ANY HARDWARE ISSUES WITH THOSE BATCH HOX?
I have one of those and so far so good
Only problem is the wifi, and the fact I got a variant 2, but everything else is perfect

Well, they're not really different versions. Sounds more like binning to me, with the bin written to the chip.
I have the Grey SH25FW since a month now and its been running awesome ! No issues at all :fingers-crossed:
Simply loving it..
If you read bigoliver's thread there's plenty of people owning sh/ht 25 that got the wifi problem.
If possible try to get a unit from a newer batch like July. Maybe go to different stores in different cities.

Hi guys,
I just got a new HTC One X for my brother and found some interesting things. First, the phone only has 16GB on board memory (indicated on the box). Second, the phone has SN starting with SH29BW (new production batch). Third, the phone came with 4.0.4 update preinstalled.
I also notice that the build is 100% perfect, no hardware issue (Wifi works perfectly) inside out. I contacted the seller and he said HTC no longer produces 32GB version of the S720e.
I found this one is interesting and wanna share with every one

The one you have is from the package with a headset. Seller take it out and sell the phone separately.
The other type of box is a white square one. This is the stand-alone version of the phone (without the headset).
My box is black and smaller than the 2nd one. And the box indicates HTC India
PS: I am in US, Minnesota and got the phone from a Yankee seller
