As most people, on receiving the HTC One S I was ecstatic. Such a slick and beautiful phone and the screen is fantastic! Unfortunately it just went down from here. Within a few days we noticed that the reception was very poor even compared to swapping the same sim out to another phone. It is so poor that you can hear the difference in the bad line when making or receiving a call and this only when there is enough reception to make at least one signal bar... It should be said that by reading some blogs with other users having the same problem we found that by switching the 3G off, the reception significantly improves…
The phone was eventually returned and a new one send out. Same problems. :’(
I decided to leave it like this with my work-around (turning off the 3G when not required) for a few months to see if an update comes out and the situation improves. Then a new problem emerged.
Started noticing the screen jumping (on it’s own) to the home (multiple screen a.k.a helicopter view) and back as if the home button is being pressed. This got worse and worse and is now at the point where we cannot use the phone as it almost constantly jumps around.
Off course I have been in contact with HTC about this and the problem is still outstanding, they have suggested; we reboot the phone, we clear the cache, reset to factory, and asked a multitude of question, but to no avail. Problem still persist with no fix in sight.

        AnonD-123, 13 Aug 2012Only 16GB of storage and no expansion slot was a deal breaker for me. It won't be able to fit... moreI dont think 16 gb is less but how well you can manage with in available space. yes I agree with you that more memory give you convenience to carry more data with you. USB OTG can replace that gap not sure if its supported by software and hardware.

          Only 16GB of storage and no expansion slot was a deal breaker for me. It won't be able to fit all of my music and leave room for anything else. If it only had more storage or the option to add more, I would have gotten it.

                                      HTC One S (HOS) doesn't support Dr. Dry beats tour In-Ear headphones!!!
                                      While HOS comes with beats audio technology but not support beats tour, how funny! Isn't it funny?!? or shame on HTC???

                                      N.B: beats tour, I bought this for my iPhone 4S & recently my iPhone 4S has been robbed from Wakefield Street, Eastham, London in 1-08-12 @2:30am. Was that funny too?!? Robbery in London! Becoz we're Asian!
