HTC One X Overview
The HTC One X is the first quad-core Android smartphone, not only by HTC but from any manufacturer. It'll have a Tegra 3 chipset inside by NVIDIA alongside 1GB of RAM, an 8 megapixel HD camera with flash, front-facing camera, a 4.7 inch 720p display and more. It will ship with both Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and HTC's all new Sense 4.0.
The US release, however, will find itself with a new dual-core S4 processor from Qualcomm which is better suited for carriers that use an LTE network. The Qualcomm S4 processor has been benchmarked to beat out the quad-core Tegra 3 in some tests.

HTC One X Reviews
The Verge Today, we’re looking at the global version of the One X, arguably the most important of these first three One devices. It’s certainly the most powerful, thanks to a 1.5GHz quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 processor, a 4.7-inch 720p display, an 8-megapixel camera with some aggressive specs, and 32GB of storage.
Droid-Life "With a new outlook on design, a less-intrusive take on Android skinning, and a focus on impressive hardware, this phone is one to “ooh” and “aww” over on paper and in pictures."
Mobile Syrup "On paper the device has it all, both outside and in. Let’s take a ride to the centre of the One X to see if the experience delivers on its promises."
Techno Buffalo There’s so much to love about the One X and it it begins with the phone’s hardware design. The One X is built out of polycarbonate plastic, a material that Nokia uses in its Lumia 900 and Lumia 800 devices, which is incredibly scratch resistant and sturdy.

AT&T has made it clear that there are no plans to offer an official bootloader unlock forits HTC One X, but that hasn’t stopped the industrious folk of xda-developers from successfully rooting the device.
