[UPDATE] HTC 19.9 Windows Phone 8 Event: 8X and 8S announced

With all of the Apple iHooplah going on, and the Nokia Lumia rave; we finally get to see what HTC has in store for the masses. I guess you can say that this is my favorite time of the tech wars. HTC has always been a favor of mine in the OEM department. Since the sawn or their existence, the devices that would come annually from HTC were without question wowing to say the least. Lifestyles Defined will be on deck tomorrow giving you the play by play!

[UPDATE]

So in a Silicone game of poker HTC says “I see you’re poly carbonate device, and will raise you a poly carbonate device of my own”! Stalemate, or copy cat? Well I will leave that topic for episode 8 of That’s the Lifestyle. Never the less HTC is making much noise with the release of their new devices, one of which the (8X) shows promise to be a better sounding alternative to Nokia’s Lumia 920. (I’m sure) Check out the video overview below; as well as device specs.
