Is the 8x a lemon?

[SnailUK]

Give that Nokia are reputed to have sold something like 2.5 million devices, and a lot of people prefer, or are only able to get the 8X, i would estimate the 8X has sold millions of devices too.

Just looking round this forum, i don't see enough evidence to prove there are that many issues. Just a vocal small percentage.

Yup the phones a lemon because it scratches... Should of bought a scratch resistant phone with the battery that self recharges from fairy dust.

Those are on backorder.

My 8x is nuclear powered. Never needs charging.

Mine works great. Absolutely no regrets.

My first 822 on VZ was a lemon. Kept rebooting and locking up. Could have been a bad SIM card, I don't know. I had it replaced at BB where I bought in less than 24 hours, for another 822. Haven't had one single issue with the second unit. Clearly since I exchanged it within less than 24 hours, I could have gone with something else, but I really like the phone and its features. So far just happy with it and just remembered that all new units may have issues. My first OG Droid had to be exchanged as well.

Why did you swap over??

I have not had any issues with my HTC 8x although, I haven't owned it long, but I did swap over from a red 920 and it was fine too.....no issues with it!

this thread is about the HTC 8x not the Nokia 822.

Two weeks in and no issues. I don't think it scratches easily at all. My 4 year old runs off with mine and I feel less concerned about it than I did with my iPhone. Its never rebooted itself and the battery is great after turning off NFC.

Yeah, I have a red 8x on order from Verizon and the threads popping up here are definitely making me nervous.

Don't be nervous. I have one of the pre-production ones from the launch event and it's been great.
