Slightly different from HTC One X which also uses the concept of a unibody, One S has a little plastic panel in the top and bottom on rear body. The plastic panel on the top also serves as cover access to micro SIM slot as well as a place for antenna elements , the right choice to avoid the death grip problem.

Although not using the Snapdragon S4, One S's performance still good with 1.7 Ghz Snapdragon S3. A number of applications and features run smooth without significant obstacles. Adreno 225 GPU and 1 GB of RAM also makes graphics performance went well.
No significant problems like lag when running heavy and "need good graphics device" applications. The video streaming also run smoothly, despite the speed of data transfer depends on the internet or wi-fi network connections.
As a dual-core processor smartphone, One S showed a satisfactory results during benchmark test. With Quadrant app - One S score is 3775. While using Antutu app - One S got 7108. Those results certainly beyond HTC Sensation XE which also using dual-core processor - Sensation XE gets the score of 2493 and 4791 using the same app. However, when compare with LG HD 4X, One S able to surpass this Quad-core processor phone - 4X HD only get 3561 with Quadrant app.

This special process, using 10,000 volts of electricity, equivalent to the power of lightning - which then change the surface of aluminum into ceramic. Not only make it look more attractive, this process also makes the has resistance 5 times stronger than aluminum aircraft maker and 3 times stronger than stainless steel.
As for gray gradient color, through the anodizing process that produces the color gradation of light gray to dark gray color without using paint.
