Sadly. You can not install apps or games on micro sd card. So if your phone mem ran out of space you have to choose which apps or games you should delete so that you may install the new one. Very frustrating. Only photos, music, videos and docs can save on mem card.

Can anybody tell me the battery life of htc 8s. Mine it only takes a day when i do browsing and texting. I fell that something is wrong with my battery. Also i can't send a text message to multiple recipients at same time. Two or more recipients my message will failed. Only one at time. So if i have to send a same message to two or more recipients i have to send it one by one. It is very uncomfortable. I try my sim card on my other phone and its okay! Can anyone tell me how can i fix this?

Bought the 8S htc Windows phone few months ago. it is terrible in terms of total storage capacity, it has only 4GB which is not enough. the operating system with the standard applications takes more then 3 GB and the remaining storage is not sufficient for personal data. I have installed additional SD card but it does not accept application or phone data, it is only for music, vids and photos; so its not helpful to upgrade the system total storage for e-mails, contact and applications.
Now my phone crashes very frequently and does not even accept to dial numbers because of limited storage.

The camera is poor specially with law lighting intensity.

Bought 8S fiesta red a month ago. Its really awesome. Built quality is amazing. Windows phone OS is also quite brilliant. Some drawbacks as well, despite of setting SD card as default memory, files received through Bluetooth gets saved in phone memory. No renaming option for any files. For every editing reason, it prompts to connect to the PC. These are the drawbacks of Windows phone not of HTC. HTC has disappointed by putting a low quality camera, though it says 5MP, its almost like a VGA.

Its a fine phone does everything I want it to, battery life is good, camera is fine and call clarity is amazing. I am really warming to Windows 8 I only use my phone for calls, texts and internet apart from that nothing else I don't do apps don't need them.

I am a previous Blackberry 9900 user I just fancied a change as I felt Blackberry was a little dated in its OS and I did not like the look of the new BB10, definitely not going Android as I don't like that at all. Windows is a simple fluid OS which suits me fine.
