I don't know if any of you have noticed this but if you look carefully at the back of the one x you can see the outline of the battery. I can only really see it in the sun and I never noticed it on the gray model(I have the white one). I guess the layer of poly-carbonate on the back is thinner than I thought. It doesn't really bother me but I think it explains how it is so easy to feel the heat from the processor while playing games. Any thoughts?

I couldn't notice it from my grey model, i guess it is easier to noticeable with the white model. My phone temperature always stay at 30++ Celsius but it goes down to 20++ Celsius when I was in the air conditioning room.
If you use Flashlight app at night you can actualy see the inside of the device
also, my thoughts, if the plastic is so thin it can help cooling the device imo? as the tegra3 is heating quite alot

We've all seen threads about issues with the screen. The update is out (somewhat) and new manufacturing dates have been found. Is anyone out there with no issues?
I'm about to buy mine in about an hour or so and this has freaked me out.
I have absolutely no issues with my unbranded One X. No flexing, no yellow spots, not dust, no dead pixels, excellent battery life (charging every other night) and no flickering.
I feel like I have a special device with all the moaning going on

Thank you. Do you mind telling me the manufacturing batch?
The only fault I've seen is flickering, HTC are clearly well on top of that and it is software, every clue is that the latest update fixes it.
So.... Yes, I am happy as Larry with mine, despite the slight screen flicker.
Please do yourself a favor and get an unbranded handset from cpw of p4u who should match any deal you're getting elsewhere.
Very mixed feelings about the Tegra-based 1X here. No screen issues, flexing, etc., like others have complained of, but my particular unit has *terrible* GPS. I'm not talking about long time to lock, I'm talking about position that jumps 100s of meters constantly, making GPS tracks useless. This problem has really destroyed my enthusiasm for the device.
I love the screen/display. Except for the lack of the inky dark blacks on my Samsung phones, the 1X has the sharpest screen I've ever seen, and great color reproduction.
The phone gets very hot if you tax it, ie., with heavy games. I was playing Dark Meadow: The Pact yesterday and the screen was so hot it burned my fingers if I kept then still too long.
Good luck with yours if you buy.
its really a great phone, go and buy it. i have no heating issues, but i am not a gamer. dont forget to use a custom rom

I am getting an unbranded one. From a brick and mortar store though. Call htc to confirm international warranty. I am in India or Canada hence cannot use CPW. Don't know about P4U. Will check it out.

That's certainly true, but if nobody says anything, new users will keep posting these threads.
let the rookies reply to such questions and have the mods or admins deleted if too many asking same questions and always open a new topic for that.
so far i never had to ask something, because there was always someone who post the same question and i found what i was searching for
Bought one. No appearing issues. There is a slight screen flex but no discoloration on pressing. No screen flicker (not yet at least). No yellow tint. I don't know how to keep it safe. Already have a little scruff on the bottom corner.
No problem whatsoever on my HOX ( unbranded )
Till now at least ...
Love it but unhappy with current battery stats.
Other than that it's a good phone, the screen is lovely. I just sometimes look at it in awe. Sure would have been nice to have removable battery/microsd/better SQ but it will do me for the next few months until next Nexus/iP5/Sony Mint etc.
SGS3 - I have preordered from Amazon and will make use of the 7 day return policy so I can test it and compare against the HOX.
I have had mine for a few weeks now and everything is perfect, no flickering or spots anything like that. Only thing that is slightly annoying is the battery life, i finding myself charging it twice a day but I'm a heavy user and the phones always in my hand

I've had my phone for around a month now, though it's not perfect (the screen it's sealed in 100% on the left meaning a 1mm gap allows light to shine out in the bottom left corner) I'm glad I got it.
It is a lovely phone. The screen is crisp, it's responsive and coming from an HTC Wildfire it's a real joy.
If you're one of the lucky few to get a phone with little to no faults then kudos and I'm sure it will make your phone seem even better.
I am confused and I truly don't know what all the fuzz is about.
* Yellowish tinge on the screen?
- Nope.
* Phone not booting after updating?
- Nope, and I've done 3 updates since I bought it.
* Battery draining like crazy?
- Nope, been using the phone the entire day and still at 73% (and even Bluetooth was activated the entire day to call hands free in the car)
* Wi-Fi problems?
- Nope.
If people are so unhappy about this phone go and buy a ****ty galaxy in blue

Someone submerged the HTC One M8 in water for about 90 minutes, it came out just fine. Is this phone waterproof? I haven't seen any specs saying it is, but apparently it's at least water-resistant. Here's the video.

It didn't. It did it once - 6PM hit and it went black. I noticed the music player popped up on the screen though.
Obviously I wouldn't go dropping my phone in water to test this but it looks like HTC did manage to isolate the components enough to make it water resistant. I wonder why they didn't advertise it? Probably because of the lack of flaps I guess.
This would likely cause damage to the USB and headphone jack over time but its a cool test of the build quality for sure.

Yeah I'm happy they improved the already exceptional build quality. The M7 survived the most ridiculous torture test I've seen CNET administer while the S4 failed miserably. HTC has a lot more experience with phones than anyone else but Nokia really so it shouldn't be a surprise that they pulled this off but its still nice to see. And they did it without flaps, that's the real big FU to Sony
The review by CNET suggests this is not true.
The Bad: The One M8’s battery is not removable, making it harder to replace once the battery inevitably wears out. The phone's sealed chassis is not water-resistant, and the One M8's photos look less sharp than competitors'.

nobody is claiming this phone was made to be water resistant. However, spending 1hr and 30 mins in water indicates you dont have to worry about splasehes/rain/ etc.. dont take it diving and be careless
Is the removable battery even a big deal now days? Who keep their phone for more than 2 years now anyway?

I don't see why it shouldn't be waterproof. Just another feature everyone else will have. But I could also see the point of not advertising it as water resistant. I sure wish this was confirmed.

Well speaking as someone who dropped their HTC One down the toilet last week (I was drunk) and waking up the next day and the phone is dead and only remembering what happened the phone turns on fine after charging it but I've tried 3 different SIM cards and they won't work and it won't turn off anytime I close it down it reboots, tried putting it in bag of rice, etc but doesn't work so I'm left with my beloved one which is unusable just as well I've insurance (even if the excess is an outrageous €95) and when I get a new one I'll sell it and buy new M8,but getting back to the original point I would be delighted if the new M8 was waterproof after what happened to me.

Why not? Sony did it with the Z2.

Yes I agree that Sony got it right with the z2. However it did take a couple of generations for them to get it right. External speakers even on the z1 is not very good. Reviewers always pointed to the waterproofing as the cause of the low speaker volume.

Not sure if you worded that out of order - but the whole idea of the rice, is to do it BEFORE attempting to turn it on. If you tried to turn it on before letting it sit a few days in rice, thats the point where the damage is done. (Turning it on still moist)
Watch carefully through the video, I have to question its authenticity.
If you notice, there are bubbles coming from the headphone jack. At multiple times the quantity and speed of these increase, often when the camera comes back on after altering it's position. I know the camera was said to run out of storage space etc, however the bubbles suggests that the phone has been removed and replaced.
thats with the bubbles i also saw - and when bubbles can go outside normally water can go inside too.
aluminium and water also not best friends. in my eyes the video is fake or manipulated.
My M8 got splashed with a glass of water and the screen died in seconds. After doing the rice thing for a day, it wont light back up, though the screen does still register touch. It is NOT water proof, and doesn't seem to be very resistant either, as it was a small amount that splashed on it.

Maybe build quality varies. I spilled a whole glass on it and absolutely nothing happened. Screen, and also the speakers, works great as before. I tested them immediately. Maybe I was just lucky. But still, a whole glass, and I saw how the water filled every speaker hole.
Anyone else have a problem with the screen not being assembled correctly?
If I swipe down from the top left for notifications, it's smooth going from the metal to the glass. But if I swipe down from the top right to do the quick settings, there's a noticeable gap. Or not really gap, but the screen sits higher than the metal. Friggin annoying as hell, considering how much I go to the quick settings. This and the notification light not working are already making me reconsider buying this thing....
I had that issue and T-Mobile gave me a new one. Manufacturered 4/9. I've yet tried to S-OFF.

I've returned two to T-Mobile for the same problem and a few other issues. The 3rd one I got is much better, still not 100%, but it's fine... At this early point in the game, I'm starting to think that you have to be super lucky to get one that is perfectly smooth and flush.
I have seen some people say that a screen protector will solve the problem or at least make it better, could always try that.
I know that with every first batch or so of a new device, there will be some duds... but man, seems more people than usual having issues related to build quality on this phone. It's an expensive device and HTC is marketing it as a "premium" device - if you're not happy with the build, by all means, go exchange it.
mine had the same problem. I did exchange it for a new one it's a little better. but now I know why samsung don't want to make a metal device.
Wow, I wonder how many people have this problem...
Like @aimfire72 said, with this being touted as a premium device with the whole "zero gap" design, you'd expect it to be assembled a little better... I'll probably be taking it back to T-Mobile tomorrow and hopefully the one I get is better.
I feel like I have been lucky. I have had no issues with the screen or speakers.

My speaker grills are maybe MAYBE a human hairs width higher than the screen. We wound up with 4 lines, and all got the m8, and some of the other ones have more noticeable differences in height, but none of the other people using them have said anything, and I don't think they really care. I think that's something we often lose sight of, is that for most people that's just something they don't even think of. Sure, it would be nice if it was perfect on every device, but as long as it's within tolerance and the grills aren't popping up like some people have had, most people won't probably notice or care.
In any case, compared to my M7, the height difference is MUCH improved. My screen was decently higher than the top speaker grill, and that annoyed me as I always felt it when I swiped down the notification bar, but I got used to it and with a screen protector it just blended in to that bump.
Hi I got my oppo Find7a while on a business trip to China 2 weeks ago (348 euro)
I made the mistake of exchanging a perfect midnight black with a white one because the back was so slippery that in the first 10 minutes of use I dropped my phone on the couch twice!
On the white one the volume and power button are poorly fitted and rattle a lot.
Also the screen has on the lower right corner a yellow/orange tint apparent from the first time I turned on the device!
Apart from those minor issues my major complaint is the contrast of the screen which is lacking compared to my HTC one M7 (sharp panel) I currently use. In comparison it makes the screen look a bit dull like my nexus 7 2013 which also has a jdi made panel.
Camera and sound are awesome and I don't care about battery life since we have the insanely fast charging.
This is the only thing that is holding me back from claiming Find 7a the perfect phone.
I guess at this price point you can not complain.

I have to say im impressed with the phone. The yellow patch on the screen goes away, leave the phone full brightness and playing a video, heat the screen up, its just the glue, had many a phone with the issue.
The button's do rattle on the white one, cant speak for the black, but not a massive issue for me. The screen looks slightly off to me as well, until i removed the factory screen protector, like night and day, have a nice glass protector on it now.
Fast charging is insanley cool. I get great battery life out of mines, but its nice to quick charge.
I have to say the phone phisically is perfect for me, its the software and lack of available customization that is the issue, but cyanogen should fix that

Screen protector was a hard sheet of thick plastic that makes the display look bad.

Same experience here too, I removed the factory screen protector and the screen is just awesome.
I don´t see my yellow tint that often, but it really feels like its going away. probably I have to try the full brightness video thing for a day.
I'm a bit gutted really. After reading user reports about the build quality of the find 5, I was hoping that the find 7 would be a massively premium phone - this seems not to be the case as people keep describing it as amazing considering it's not a premium device.

You got it all wrong the Find7a is a premium device !!!
Even phones costing triple and even more have small annoyances.
Oppo Find 7a is a very honest device no gimmics!
My white handset has neither the loose keys nor the yellow issue. The hardware does not look cheap and in fact has a premium vibe but isn't up to the standards of an M8. But then this is the down tempo device, the 7 would be a better price competitor and it is reported to have a more upscale feel with its carbon fiber (look) backplate. Meanwhile the reviews I've seen tend to place the OPO and Oppo as about on par in terms of perceived quality.
I would be a lot more worried about the horrid standby and bad battery life in general. If you're used to modern cell phones its going to catch you by surprise. I would be looking to see if the OPO has this mess with the radios and other low level software issues cleaned up and lean that direction if they did. I wouldn't buy either if it didn't until such time as they fix one or the other.
There is a lot to love about this phone, the hardware is excellent and even Color OS is a decent GUI with fun stuff and some legitimately useful ideas although immature. I liken it to a car that you really like but you're never sure if its going to start or if you'll get there. This phone is like that. It's software is not even close to final and you can expect it to shut down, lock up, have unexplained battery losses and such on an infrequent but regular basis.
I'll corroborate to say that my yellow tint went away. The first day I had it I was a little disappointed by it but I figured I would stop noticing it. One reason I bought a phone with such a big screen is to watch my anime on the go, which includes watching it at full brightness when on the bus/glare. I didn't even think that the heating up might address it and checking it again after reading this thread it appears the tint is gone.
I've also had some weird flip flopping with standby time. For the first week, it would only drain 3% overnight, but for the last 2 days, it's been draining 10-12% overnight, and then as of tonight, it barely drained again. I'm not really sure what's going on but there are definitely some weird little software issues that need to be cleaned up. If nothing else, Entropy and the others seem geared up to get Omnirom going

The pre-installed screen protector is a common thing among some smartphone manufacturers. Sony also does it with their Xperia line, my friends Xperia S also came with a pre-installed screen-protector, and i don't know why you're saying it looks bad with the screen protector, it doesn't the only thing the screen protector may have has a step back is that fingerprints and grease from your hands get on the screen much quicker. Anyway, it is a quality screen protector, cheap ones scratch very easily, this doesn't. If you want to buy another one, buy one of those made of glass, those are supposed to be great.
My Find 7a came with a yellow tint also, i've already started playing District 9 via Plex on full brightness .

I tried this today, ran a YouTube video for about 2hrs at full screen brightness but doesn't seem to have made any difference. I will try again this eve and run it for longer, but would be interested to hear from others to see if it works for them?
So the general consensus is that the screen looks much better with the factory protector removed?
I got my device yesterday and have to say I love it. I was very impressed with it the second I took it out of the box and felt it in my hand. I knew it would be a nice device as I owned the Find 5 as well but it was much nicer than I had imagined. The build quality is top notch. My buttons do not rattle but they do have some play in them but then again the Nexus 5 buttons had some play, a lot of HTC m8 buttons have some play. As long as the button isn't falling off who cares if it has some play?

Hi, agree in some points,
so in direct comparison to the Find5 screen the Find7a Screen is not that good, (for me) very too blueish, not good black color, weird pixel densitiy (maybe this is up on my still existing screen protector where i think i cannot read super small text which is no issue on the find5) and the yellow tinty glue on the bottom side.
I just rund benchmarks for 2 hours, yellow tinty get little faded but still visible also i used a hair dryer some minutes (not on full heat and really careful and with battery out of the device) which makes the very hard things disappear, but still not yet in full, also i´m absolutely not wanted to do such things as customer when i receive a new device ;o)
I will give it a try with the "long hour video playback" this evening, else i send it back tomorrow in hope to receive a device which has a little warmer display and with biggest focus without the tinty stuff (which is a no go).
From all other sides for me the find7a is nearly perfect and i find it better than find5, find7a is awesome (size / sound / performance / colorOS in the meantime), the build quality is also okay, but find5 was little more ahm - unique / premium feel in hand, but also heavy for its size.

Anybody managed to get the Galaxy Gear (1st generation) to work with the 7a?

So the general consensus is that the screen looks much better with the factory protector removed?
I got my device yesterday and have to say I love it. I was very impressed with it the second I took it out of the box and felt it in my hand. I knew it would be a nice device as I owned the Find 5 as well but it was much nicer than I had imagined. The build quality is top notch. My buttons do not rattle but they do have some play in them but then again the Nexus 5 buttons had some play, a lot of HTC m8 buttons have some play. As long as the button isn't falling off who cares if it has some play?

Sir, if I'm not asking too much, please compare camera quality of this phone with other(if you have of course). As I've seen on reviews, camera of this phone is great. I'm looking to renew my phone and my decision is LG G3 or Oppo find 7(a), or 1+1 if will be available to buy without invitation. Thanks
