Expansys geeft géén garantie

Tof toestel, maar omdat Expansys geen garantie geeft (woorden en daden zijn een groot verschil) raad ik sterk af om hier iets te kopen. Goedkoper bij bv Amazon.de, bol.com, coolblue én betere service.

Is it a good choice?

Hi. I'm following this since it's available on the market and I have doubts about getting it. I work in a Mobile Store and I have already try the phone and looks intuitive. This Windows 8 is really captivating. As positive specs from I have read: The phone have a gorgeous polycarbonate body with a not to large dimensions. The colors available are quite interesting since they are not very usual to see, but I most like Black/White Dominó and the Yellow/Grey one. Also as good funtions but can you tell me if: The Camera is resonable or it's bellow? The RAM memory really afects the use of the phone? What about playing games in the phone? Can you tell me your opinion please. I consider it very affordable considering it's quality and specs. Thank You very much. FM

HTC 8S Review

I’ve actually really enjoyed my time with the 8S. The build quality is what I would expect from HTC. Sure, the screen resolution could be higher, but then so would the price. The only thing I would change is the microSD utilisation. I’d much sooner have no external storage, and have 16gb of internal memory to do whatever I want with. But due to the limitation, not sure if it is windows phone or HTCs doing at this point, it is somewhat concerning. I guess if you are installing that many apps to take up 1.5gb of storage, you should really be using another phone, such as the 8X… Good Points • Build Quality • Memory Card • Very Responsive Bad Points • Camera Suffers In Bad Light • Lack of RAM means possible issues in the future • Low Internal Storage • Only 1.5gb of storage for Apps. Rating based on its budget status, We can ignore the screen and camera, because the issues there are to be expected at this price range. The RAM, almost admissible but not quite. But the storage… Seriously HTC, not again. However, the Design is awesome. I really quite like the Domino black version, but all of them stand out nicely. If you’re able to afford both the 8X and 8S, but don’t know which to go for, get the 8X. It’s bigger and better. The storage is the biggest issue for me. Whilst it is a Windows Phone limitation, I think HTC should have put 8gb on-board storage on to compensate for this, especially where bigger games are coming out now, not that you’ll be able to get them all thanks to the RAM.
