Hands On: HTC Windows Phone 8X, 8S

HTC's flagship Windows Phone 8X has a lovely 4.3-inch 720p HD display.

Like the forthcoming Nokia Lumia 920, the Windows Phone 8X will be available in a variety of flashy colors.

The Windows Phone 8X features an 8-megapixel camera along with HTC's dedicated ImageChip.

The Windows Phone 8X feels light and comfortable to hold.

The phone is made of a soft touch polycarbonate that gives it a nice grippy feel.

Here's the Windows Phone 8X in "flame red."

The Windows Phone 8S is HTC's lower-cost counterpart to the Windows Phone 8X.

Here's a fleet of HTC's colorful Windows Phone 8S devices.

The Windows Phone 8S is made from the same polycarbonate material as the 8X and has a similar feel.

The Windows Phone 8S has a 5-megapixel camera and HTC's ImageChip.

Two of the new 8S phones come in a two-tone design. This one's called "high-rise gray-yellow."

This color is called "Atlantic blue." It doesn't quite look like the ocean, but it sure stands out.
