HTC One SV

Six months ago, HTC released the One S. Released next week, the One SV sadly seems to simply be a reboot.
The specifications, listed below, only slightly differ and, in some cases, are actually lower than the One S. 
Specs
  • 4G
  • microSIM
  • 4.3 inch 480 x 800 pixels display 
  • Micro SD slot
  • 8 GB internal memory
  • 1 GB DDR2 RAM
  • 5 MP with LED flash, 1.6 MP front 
  • 1080p video, 720p front
  • Jelly Bean v4.1.2
  • Qualcomm S4 1.2 Ghz, Dual-core
  • Water and dust resistant
  • Beats Audio
The high quality aluminium frame has gone, replaced with a very plasticky chassis. Despite this, the phone actually weighs more than the original. Overall though, the design is still very appealing. Video quality from the camera is good but the photos are decidedly average.
Still, reviewers have said browsing the internet is speedy, especially with the phone's 4G capabilities. As a portable hotspot it is also very handy. On a single charge, the phone will easily last more than a day, making it good for long trips.
Overall though, for the same price, you can buy the HTC One S which has a better screen, processor, case and camera.

Buy the One S (£381) 
Buy the One SV (£311)
