HTC's budget-minded Windows Phone 8S (pictures)

With a smaller 4.3-inch screen, the HTC Windows Phone 8S is more compact that its big brother the HTC Windows Phone 8X. It shares a similar Nokia-inspired design, however.

The HTC Windows Phone 8S comes in four color schemes, including the red and blue solid hues shown here.

On the HTC Windows Phone 8S' back side is its 5-megapixel camera and LED flash. It also sports gently curved edges.

Measuring 0.4 of an inch thick, the HTC Windows Phone 8S is on the trim side.

The left side of the HTC Windows Phone 8S is bereft of buttons.

You can choose between four color schemes for the HTC Windows Phone 8S.
