HTC One S Box

Behold, the HTC One S for T-Mobile is in the PCMag Labs.

Open Box

The first thing you see when you open the box is the phone. What you can't see is just how thin and light it is.

Open Box

The phone out of the box.

Box Contents

Almost completely unboxed. The suspense is terrible. I hope it lasts.

Completely Unboxed

There isn't much included in the One S box—just the phone, instruction manual, and charger.

Phone Off

Even when it isn't turned on, the HTC One S looks pretty darn sleek.

Back of Phone

The HTC One S is powered by a 1.5-GHz, dual-core Qualcomm MSM8260A processor.

Side of Phone

At 0.3 inches thick, the HTC One S is T-Mobile's thinnest HSPA+ smartphone.

Top of Phone

This photo doesn't quite do it justice, but the HTC One S is super thin and lightweight.

Startup Instructions

An overlay with startup instructions appears the first time you turn on the phone.

Phone On

The phone's 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED display looks bright and vibrant.

App Menu

The app menu looks much the same as it does on other HTC phones.

Android 4.0

The One S is T-Mobile's first device to ship with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich).

Camera

The One S has an ultra-fast, 8-megapixel camera.

Beats

The One S features Beats Audio enhancements, though you don't get a pair of earbuds with the phone.

Camera

The phone's camera is framed by a sleek blue ring.

Phone On In Box

The One S turned on, back in the box. It looks just like the phone on the cover, doesn't it?
