Hi guys,
I want to buy a new one x but I can't make up my mind about the color yet. I mean I like the white one but I'm worried that it will get dirty easily specially that I intend to use it without a cover. Can you share on your experience using a white one x without a cover?
Mine has stayed pretty clean. I use it with and without a case.
It really depends on who's carrying the phone, there are some clumsy people who just put their mobile anywhere they like, and their are some people who are just conscious who keeps thinking what if i put it here and there will it get some scratch or so whatever.
For me, just keep it balance, put the phone in a place that you know it'll be safe and neat, though i am one of the owner of black one, white HOX is pretty descent as well, my cousin has one and he is still maintaining the smoothness and cleanliness of it.
It doesn't get dirty much but I always have a case as I read a newspaper on my morning commute to work and the ink rubs off very easily onto the phone or clear or white cases. So I use a black case so it doesn't show any ink marks! As long as your hands are clean it should stay white.

I have the white one close to four months now. At first, I used a case because I feared dirt or scratch marks. But after one or two weeks I ditched the case and never looked back. My phone is still clean and I have no scratch marks whatsoever.
I have white one x no problems I don't even use a case but I recommend waitin for the one x+ should be out soon

Hi guys! Going to buy my htc one x tomorrow, what color do you suggest? White or dark gray? I'm a male btw.
Do you still recommend hox over gs3? I reaally like the screen of hox! I know it lags but I'm sure custom roms with jellybean fix them all. Am I right? Help please..

one x better for me in deffernt ways, build quality, performance, display and HTC SENSE.
Get the White one with the official HTC case. It looks better than the dark Grey & the case will protect it from getting dirty, while keeping its great looks.

I got the white cause it was the cheapest. Did you know there is a black one as well? That's what I wanted but it was €100 more expensive.
I Just got a black silicon case for €5, it looks good and gives it better grip cause it can be a bit slippy
Hey,
I wanted buy a white version but it was out of stock and I wanted to get HOX as fast as possible so I chose grey. A few weeks ago I had a chance to check white one and I can say that I was lucky by taking grey device.
I do not like white version cause it looks so plastic and it also reminds me a bit white iPhone. Grey version is really neutral and if you do not wanna be extravagant or something like this, go for grey.
White looks way better to me. Doesnt look cheap at all. It doesnt get dirty very easy, even if it does its very easy to clean. I saw many people who bought grey hox later changed the case to white because it really does look better. Althouth it's a personal choice.
If you come from an older phone you won't notice lag. Like I used desire for sometime and then moved to hox.
Sgs3 is a good phone. But sense is way ahead of touchwiz even if it may be slower a bit, but jellybean should change that. Get hox, you won't regret

Wow! I'm really glad you guys helped me out! Going for white but with the case! I'm excited!
2 weeks of thinking, now I'm decided.

Yeah white is the best one mate definately, people saying it gets dirty are wrong, mine is still gleaming and looks amazing. Too many black phones I like to be different so I also got white.
3 - I always choose white phones
4 - If it does get dirty (which it doesnt) I know lots of people from XDA who simply get some Cif, dab it on a bit of cloth, rub it and voila clean !
I went for the grey one at first, but ended up having the phone replaced because it was faulty. So when they ordered me a new one I asked for the white one instad of the grey. The white one is so much nicer. If you go for the grey - you'll wish you had the white lol. But that's my opinion.
Cheers

I never tried cif, but I wouldn't go using it on a €400 - €500 mobile. It is an abrasive cleaner and might leave an uneven finish.
I would first use soapy water, and if that fails, 70% alcohol.
Mine is white and after 8 month still clean. Also I have almost zero scratches, tough I used it Hardcore

My HOX used to be grey but I had to replace the back and sim tray because the white back+simtray was much cheaper than the grey version I got the white one and since then quite a few people commented on my phone on how beautiful is looked and if I got a new one. I initially chose grey because I was concerned the white bezel would distract from the screen but I can reassure you it doesn't.

Right
Grey was 130€ cheaper when I bought it, so I went for grey.
Always thought about chasing the housing
Now that I cracked the grey housing while opening it the 3rd time to fix Wi-Fi I guess I'll order a white housing + SIM Tray for it

Hi... I recommend the black one + with 64GB / 2100mAh battery / Tegra 3 1.7Ghz (after owning a grey HOX 6 months)
I don't know were you live, and if is avaliable in your country allready... if you can't buy it now, of if you just want the one x instead one x+, so I recommend grey... but i also ear that white is more flawless.
And yes if you want a MALE smartphone don't even compare with sammy's3
Jellybean in my One X+ works just fine, and i'm sure it will work great in One X too
I've been using white for 6 months now with no case and there is no dirt on it...
In the other hand people are complaining about fingerprints on the back of grey variant.
P.s.- This phone is not a samsung and it's too beautiful to use a case

My white phone hasn't got dirty. Even if it did all you would have to do is give it a wipe.
Cheers.

I chose the white one. I wish i could have gotten it in the red colour my incredible s had. That looked damn nice.
I think the grey is to neutral. I like standing out. Though its a bit hard whith only 2 colours

white is nice but them can be dusty fast
Hi everyone,
I am getting good deals on both a white and black [not the grayish one] one X, need to decide today which one to buy. I have seen that the white version is more common, also in reviews it kind of stands out as well. I want to ask your opinion on which one is better ie,
-more elegant looks wise, when held in hand etc
-gets dirty more easily, more easy to clean, would proove to be more resistant to scratches [atleast appearance wise] overall
Help me out here!

Someone just made me realize that there is not "black" version of the one x, just the grayish one. So its the grayish one that you prefer over white then? The problem is that i haven't held both of them side by side, so it keeps crossing my mind that the white one probably looks better! lol
I had the white and hated it. Looked crap imo. Got the grey and love it. Looks smart. Best bet is look in the shops to compare. I found the white showed grime more
It's all personal preference though dude look at them in real life not just pics.
Lol I say grey

Yeah well, i've decided to get the gray one ..So thanks for all the suggestions ppl!
I bought the Genuine HTC1 DD case and found that its really really tight sliding over my black HTC1
I got the centre section about 1/4 the way from the bottom up, before I had to start really forcing it so I decided not to keep going..
I gently pulled it off the phone and discovered it had scratched the bottom speaker curved corners each side....
FFS.:crying:
**Edit** my HTC1 is black

For your reference, I just tried to insert my phone from both the top and the bottom and there was almost no resistance or scratching of any sort.

I have the black HTC1. There are also scratch lines on the back of the phone from the fabrication lines in the case.. Not good..
I will get some pics later today but for now, if you have a BLACK HTC1, DO NOT GET THIS CASE!
I want to get this case for my Silver but after seeing this I'm having second thoughts. When I'm going around with people, being busy I can use this and when I'm not too busy I can use a pouch I planned but not sure now.
Sorry to hear that, I have the DD case as well, it also hasn't scratched my phone, fits nice and snug. White HTC One. (Rogers / Canada)
So they still haven't solved this.....
Happened to me a month or so ago

Happened to me too on the back luckily I was able to swap mine out and get a replacement bc of the back and hone button not working.

Well maybe new ones won't have the same problem. Most sellers are out of stock and I really want to buy this case.
And also some people doing it wrong all the time; you slide your phone from up not bottom. There's a big difference.
The following site has some in stock. Ordered mine yesterday and arrived today. Nice price too.

I'm selling mine. PM if you want it. I don't really want to use a case on this beauty, lol!
Would you think that HTC would provide a replacement of the phone if the case which they manufacture, is scratching it? lol

Which cruzerlite? I got three as well, one red androidified, one red circuit android and one black circuit android.
Such a bummer to hear this. I'll be sure to be extra careful when putting mine on once it comes in
yes any tight slide on case can do this, I stay away from slide on cases. Especially if you ever go around sand.
Couldn't find one so I made it. I have trouble reaching accross the screen on my HTC One and OneXL and kept dropping it. I noticed tablets have cases with a strap and my phone needed one.
I bought a Rocketfish slim as he'll hard case and put a thin hole right under the camera eye, just tilted a little to fit my grip. Took a piece of Velcro strap ran it through the hole and around a bottom grove I also cut slightly.
This has been something I've done with every phone since my One XL and can't live without it. I can drive , walk, run, kick the dog, and never drop it.
I can reach the other side of the screen and the power button on top. Then twirl it around like Jesse James and holster it. Ha!
Cheap, easy!

Mate you need a shield called Rhino Shield to protect your phone...
Yeah Hes Right Mate
I have a shield on it I hvae an Invisishield on the screen..
thats the best you could possibly get. the HD version which arguably differentiates color better than the stock screen wiped clean.

this is better than the fly grip.. actually if I started producing this case mod I would put that poor little company out of business.. This is the best mod or any accessory that Ive ever had for any cell phone. It holds my phone on my finger and I can use wireless charging and NFC. Flygrip didnt think that far ahead. An accident that I cant live without now..
Hi all, just received my new HTC one M8 today and glad I went for it, been an avid HTC user since they first came out and am really pleased.
Looking for a bit of advice. I have copied an image onto the front screen as a widget from the android image gallery and then one of one of my own photos, however it is tiny, any way of increasing the size????. On my previous HTC one X it was approx 3/4 centimeter square but on the new M8 it is about a 1/4 square.
Also looking for a case that will protect it from the elements as spend a lot of time in dusty conditions. Looking at the Supcase beetle defender or the Love MEI case. Both these cases have an extra glass and dust covers over the ports. Anyone any advice which to go for????. My only concern re the Love MEI one is that all of them seem to be in China or come from China so not sure of the authenticity.
Thanks again all

For suggestions on cases for the device check this thread: One (M8) Accessories There are plenty of threads where they discuss cases.
I'm not really sure about the other point you have, are you using a specific app to make widgets of pics? If so, which? I don't see an option to do such a thing on my phone, so I can't really test it and see if I can find a solution to it. Not much help there, sorry.
