HTC One X with Quad-Core CPU Receives FCC Approval

Back in February when HTC unveiled the One series of Android phones, the company promised that all HTC One devices would be available on the market as soon as Q2 2012.

The Taiwanese handset maker has teamed up with more than 140 carriers in orders to offer these HTC One smartphones worldwide, as fast as possible.

One of the carriers that confirmed plans to release the HTC One XL is AT&T. The smartphone has already been approved by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) earlier this month.

However, the guys over at Pocketnow spotted the HTC One XL sibling, the One X at FCC, which means that the quad-core device will make its entrance in the United States as well.

HTC One XL will be available at AT&T with LTE support, but with a dual-core Krait processor clocked at 1.5 GHz. 

Customers who choose the HTC One X will be provided with only HSPA+ download speeds up to 21Mbps, but the smartphone is equipped with a 1.5 GHz quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 processor.

Currently, HTC One X is priced at 770 USD (tax included) in the United States, but this is subject to change. No word on any of the two devices release dates or pricing options yet, but more details will be provided within the next few weeks.

HTC One XL and One X are powered by Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and feature Beats Audio. Moreover, each boasts a 4.7-inch Super IPS LCD2 capacitive touchscreen display that supports HD (720 x 1280 pixels) resolution and Corning Gorilla Glass coating.

An impressive 8-megapixel rear camera is available as well, which features HTC’s Imaging technology, autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording. There’s also a secondary 1.3-megapixel camera for self-portraits and video chats. Stay tuned for more updates on the subject.
