While the HTC One S has been available in Europe for a few weeks now, T-Mobile has just announced that the phone will be making its way to stores here in the U.S. in about a week. Our friends at HTC were kind enough to send us a demo unit to play around with, so we’ve decided to share our unboxing video, some pictures of the handset and some benchmark scores.

The HTC One S that’s heading to T-Mobile looks identical to the international version save for the T-Mobile logo on the front which has replaced the HTC logo. It comes in gradient blue (even though it looks gray to us) and features a bright blue accent ring around the phone’s camera lens.

If you’re on the market for an amazingly powerful phone, the HTC One is the phone to have. The dual-core 1,5GHz Qualcomm S4 processor inside the HTC One S blows away the competition when it comes to benchmark scores and we simply can’t find any games on Google Play which seem to slow it down.

Take a look at the pictures, benchmark scores and our quick unboxing video and let us know what you think of the T-Mobile HTC One S.
