Red blinking lowbattery light is annoying. Phone gets noticeably warm with prolonged use. No public transportation directions in Maps. Main camera is kinda meh
There are lots of other nifty features in this phone and the new OS, like great sound quality with Beats Audio, resizing the size of tiles, pinning whatever you want on the front screen, etc. Overall, the phone is definitely worth buying.Page(s) 1 ...

The WP8 OS is definitely the USP of this handset. Moreover, the trendy design and impressive sound quality are the 8X's plus point. On the other hand, I feel that its display and camera could have been better. If you're not nitpicky about these, then HTC...
Just 16GB of storage, Low light camera performance, Flush power button,
