Rogers to Launch HTC One X in a Couple of Weeks

Seems Canadian Rogers will be the biggest LTE providing carrier in the country, and it refers not only to the coverage, but also to the number of LTE-enabled smartphones. The Nokia Lumia 900 will be launched via this carrier in early April. It will be the first Windows Phone-powered handset with such functionality aboard. But it won’t be the only handset released in April and supporting LTE as the HTC One X will be there in a couple of weeks too.

Rogers has yet not said how much it will require for the HTC One X, but it’s expected to be priced aggressively, because the Lumia 900 has strong pre-orders due to its sub-$100 price tag.

However, the Rogers HTC One X is packed with a Snapdragon S4 chipset. It will allow the phone to run on Rogers’ LTE network. As you know Nvidia Tegra 3 chips lack this feature, which causes much inconvenience to both smartphone makers and carriers.

Other than that, the HTC One X sports a monster-sized 4.7-inch Super IPS LCD2 capacitive touchscreen with a 720p resolution and 312ppi pixel density meaning it’s the second good screen after Apple’s Retina Display. There is also 1GB of RAM, 32GB of internal memory, 26GB of which is user-available, an 8MP camera on the back, a 1.3MP frontal camera for web chat. It also runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with HTC Sense 4.0.
