HTC One VX budget beast hits AT&T
The folks at AT&T have just released the HTC "budget" device known as the HTC One VX, a smartphone that by early 2012 standards would have been considered a top-tier machine. Instead it would seem that a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 process and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as well as a fabulous 4.5-inch qHD (960 x 540 pixel resolution) Super LCD 2 display are not quite the top of the pack anymore. Because of this, you'll be able to pick this device up for a mere $49.99 on a two-year contract.
