Meet the new HTC One X. It is kind of a big deal.

This is HTC's flagship Android smartphone  for 2012. In this one device, they have tried to cover all the angles. Innovative design and materials, a 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon dual core processor, a bright 4.7 inch 720p HD LCD screen, a 8 megapixel camera that's capable of shooting multiple frames a second and that can also shoot 1080p HD video and take photos simultaneously.  

Then there's the inevitable Beats Audio technology, LTE high speed data, NFC (Near Field Communication) all squeezed into a thin handset with a sharp yet minimalist design that makes it arguably one of the most desirable devices in the market today. Hit jump for a full review and demo video.
