thinking of buying this htc 8x (black version) does anyone know if it will work on att.

Just pop in my sim and go.

HTC Windows Phone 8X Smartphone Black (Unlocked) #8X-BLK - Expansys USA

Amazon.com: HTC 8x c620E 16GB Unlocked GSM Smartphone - No Warranty - Black - GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz; HSPA/WCDMA: 850/900/1900/2100 MHz: Cell Phones & Accessories

Does anyone know what apps HTC offers, are they any good

These are unlocked, so any GSM sim will work, HTC weather and HTC Hub is what I have heard are htc exclusives.
Beware, 8x has limited memory which can be pain in a** if you have good data to store in the phone.

X8?
The apps start hogging the 'other' storage space which isn't cool.
Well, I like to store a good amount of songs rather than shuffle them every now and then ;), still thats me!

Hi montsa007,

it's a typing-error :angel: .. 8X should it be ... How big are song-files?

Well it really varies how big the song files can be, an average 3 minute song can eat up 2-3MB of space if formatted decently. Now there can be songs which are hour long or maybe 1 minute or even 5-8 minutes, so there's no exact figure on how much they take.
Currently I have 85 handpicked songs stored (added them yesterday after removing 2-2.5GB of random songs, I'm cleaning up lol), I constantly keep adding them as I don't like the idea of adding 100 songs, then removing them to add another batch of 100 or so because I am limited on space.
Not trying to woo you away from 8X but the cheap paint of that phone starts to peel up and then it really looks ugly/cheap then, there are 2 threads in the forum about it with pictures, the beats audio enhancement is very good for the htc lineup, but it does not have an equalizer inside it so the only thing you can do is beats on/off.

Yeah Yeah I know its for 8s, but 8x is no different.

There are some more, but my super powers are getting weak and am growing old to search.

Edit - I just realised that you are not the OP, lol.
