  • Windows Phone 8
  • 8 megapixel camera with HD video
  • Beats Audio enhancements
  • Stunning design
;DETOVER;

The Orange HTC Windows Phone 8X is HTC's brand new handset running Microsoft's latest operating system. With stunningly colourful designs and a sleek polycarbonate body, the new HTC is quite a striking looker.

Underneath HTC's wonderful unibody skin, they've managed to pack in a 4.3-inch Super LCD2 HD screen coated with Gorilla Glass 2 to make sure that it doesn't get scratched. The dual-core 1.5GHz processor and 1GB of RAM ensures that any games you're playing or apps you're running look great and run smoothly.

Some of the Orange HTC 8X's great features are exclusive only to the HTC range. Beats Audio integration ensures that your tunes sound as good as they possibly can with its built in amplifier. Their ImageChip feature means you can carry on continuously snapping photos on the 8 megapixel rear camera with LED flash. Both front and back cameras support full 1080p HD video recording.

Windows Phone brings a whole host of new features to the 8X. Windows Live Tiles display all the info you need right on your homescreen and you can rearrange them to suit your needs. Already a fantastic multimedia phone, Windows Phone 8X on 3 is only made better by the inclusion of Xbox Live and the Windows Phone Store.

If you're after a high performance smartphone that is great for watching videos and listening to music, then it's hard to beat the Orange HTC Windows Phone 8X. Even better, you're guaranteed to be looking great and sounding great whenever you're out and about with the 3 HTC 8X.
