Chic ‘n Cheap Living Contest: HTC One X+ 4g Smart Phone $549 value (US addresses only)

January 29, 2013

How do you use your phone?

Actually, I rarely make phone calls with my phone ever since I got a smart phone.  But I am constantly checking email, checking out Instagram (I’m here!), sending Facebook/What’sApp messages, or using the map to orient myself (seriously, where would I be without Google maps?!)

I’ve had an iPhone 4 for a while, but also received a HTC OneX+ as part of the #HTCOne and #TroopOneX blogger team. The screen, colors, and camera on this phone are excellent (not gonna lie, they kick the iPhone 4’s aluminum booty) and I appreciate the slightly larger screen size, though it may be lighter than my iPhone.  There are definitely many more options on the camera to take continuous shots, create filters, and adjust the ISO or type of frame used.

This is my first time using an Android phone and it is intuitive to use (there is a mild vibration when you type which I find to be pretty cool!) though I am still figuring other stuff out. I have been using this phone when I am in Wifi zones and have had fun so far.

Here are a few Instagram shots with my phone, mostly from my short trip to Boracay last week (more pictures to come later).

I have partnered with the HTC One team to give away a phone (device only valued at $549.99) so you can try out an 8 MP camera and experience Beats Audio for yourself! This phone is optimized for AT&T.  For a more illustrious review of the phone, check this review out

This is a short giveaway and ends at 11:59 pm PST, February 1 for US address holders (I promise to work on more international giveaways!)
