HTC One X review | from TechRadar's expert reviews of Mobile phones
That's the first review I've seen so far, no doubt more will pop up throughout the course of the day/week. I'll add them as and when they come in. This is also for the European, Tegra 3 version.
They complain the battery is what you'd expect from HTC, and compare it to the Desire HD. Well I have the Desire HD and the battery does me fine. No doubt custom ROMs (when they become available) will improve things. Also worth noting, they can't have had it very long and I find lithium batteries improve after the first 5-8 charges.
They also claimed there's a little bit of lag when clearing apps from the notification menu and turning the screen on. Otherwise, they say it's an amazing phone.
FOR
Great screen
Stunning design
Powerful processor
Many inbuilt services
AGAINST
Awful battery life
Laggy touchscreen
Video grainy
If Orange have any in store, I'll post up my initial thoughts later today.

Endgadget: HTC One X review -- Engadget
There's absolutely no doubt that the One X is a masterpiece of an Android device: it obliterates pretty much all of its competitors by giving even the mighty Galaxy Nexus a run for its money. HTC's really crafted something special here, with a brilliant combination of branding, industrial design and user experience. This handset looks and feels stunning, with top-notch materials and build quality, the most gorgeous display we've ever stared at on a phone, a fantastic camera that's fast and easy to use and a laundry list of every possible spec under the sun. Sense 4 is thin and light enough to enhance -- not detract from -- stock Ice Cream Sandwich. Pinch us, 'cause frankly, we're smitten.
Still it's not all rainbows and glitter. While it's incredibly quick and smooth in actual use, we're surprised that the quad-core Tegra 3 in the One X performed slightly worse in our benchmarks than the dual-core Snapdragon S4 in the One S. Battery life is by far our biggest concern and we really hope that HTC addresses this head-on with future software updates. It'll be interesting to see how its LTE equipped twin (which is also Snapdragon S4-based) fares in those areas when it launches in the next few weeks -- let's just hope AT&T keeps the firmware as unadulterated as possible. Ultimately, buying a One X is a lot like getting a unicorn -- it's wild, fast, white, beautiful, expensive and fickle. Time will tell if dressage school tames this power hungry beast.

HTC has a lot to prove. Whether it was down to resting on its collective laurels, misreading the market, or simply getting its 2011 product line wrong, last year turned out to be something of an annus horribilis all round. Rivals accelerated past, Apple broadened its iPhone range across price points, and in contrast HTC phones looked derivative and lumpen.

which is always good! My thing is when Iphone saturates the filter on the camera to make the images darker, no one say's anything!? I like what the One X does, what you see is displayed accurately and with natural colours! Did you see the night time shot from Endgadget review...stunning results!
