[Q] HTC Vivid or wait until One X - HTC Inspire 4G

I Have the htc Inspire right now, and I've had it for over a year now. Its ended up to be a great phone. But it has its problems, anyways... I was going to get the HTC Vivid, but i decided to wait. And then I found out about the One X! I was very excited for that, but it wont come out until the second quarter now for AT&T. I also found out that the Vivid will also be getting ICS and the new sense 4.0 in the next coming weeks. So, should I wait another month or two, to get the One X? Or would I be just as satisfied with the Vivid? Also, I have used the Vivid in a store with no LTE and it is wayy faster than my Inspire, would the One X be a lot faster than the Vivid? Thanks!

I am gonna stay with my inspire, ics almost ready for a daily driver.

I would wait. I have an Inspire and my brother had the Vivid, not any significant differences between the phones. Call quality and speaker loudness are the same (low). Only benefit was LTE. Needless to say, he said it wasn't worth going from an Inspire to a Vivid.

I beg to differ
I made the switch from the Inspire to the Vivid, and I gotta say it's quite the step up, I haven't experienced any lag, currently running an official leak of ics with sense 3.6 currently, 4.0 is coming soon. stock on ics the kernel is clocked at 1.5ghz. the screen is just ridiculously better, I loaded up the same HD images on both for comparison and some looked like totally different pictures. such a lightning fast device too.
But if you want to wait for the One X you can, I'd say go ahead and get the Vivid, it's specs are pretty damn similar, and once it gets the ics w/ sense 4.0 update it'd be pretty much the same, only a little better looking.

The screen and processor on the one x are better and will probably be supported longer anyway

does it matter in truth? 6months later we all want the newest thing anyways. it's not like ours becomes useless or cant do what we need, it just becomes obsolete in comparison to the next phone. and people thought computer death cycles were fast haha

Yes the OneX is a better phone hands down. BUT that's not what we're getting, we're getting the OneXL which has no sd slot, is an S4 dual core and is further gimped down to 16GB of storage. So after the rom you might get 9-10GB of storage, non-upgradable.
Hmmm... the Vivid isn't sounding as bad anymore does it?

would be possable to get the european vesion with the quad core processor in the states?
and i love my inspire just wish some one would port sense 4.0 over to it like there doing over on the nexus page.
but i dont realy like ics, the keyboards hard to use, the scrolling isnt as smooth, imo, i think ics is better left to the tablets.

My understanding is that the Euro units use different bands and the only one that may work is the Canadian Bell/Rodgers handsets. But that's only helpful if they get the quads, which I believe they will not. If you can find one that has these bands then you will have everything but LTE/4G. Due your research.
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100
*Edit Based on a comparison on GSM Arena it looks like it should be possible. But what's it going to cost???

The vivid seems to have zero development, so I would avoid it.

I would bet the Vivid gets a big price cut when the One X comes out.

i think both are very good phones, it all depends whether you want to wait for the one x. at the end of the day, what was new today will be old tomorrow

Considering the at&t variant is only dual core compared to the original quad core, get the Vivid.

Hey, I'm still a current Inspire owner and currentely have a Vivid. The Inspire is rooted and the Vivid is locked and stock. Next month I will be buying an unlocked One X. The hardware in the Vivid is very capable to last, even stock, through the normal contract length. However, the AT&T One X is only a slight upgrade from the Vivid. The only difference is that it has an S4 Snapdragon, the Vivid has an S3. Both are dual cores. Both have 16GB of storage. The X will have between 10 and 12GB user accessible, the Vivid has 12. The X is clocked at 1.5, the Vivid 1.2. The Vivid has a 960x540 qHD display. The X will have a 1280x720 HD display. The dev section in the Vivid forums is severely lacking of support. After a fallout, 2 of 4 devs took their roms elsewhere. However, we have quite a few users who are learning to fill the void and add more support. The dev section for the X is gonna be a whole lot better, I'm gonna say it'll probably rival the Inspire's. If money is no object, wait for the X. If money is an issue, definitely get the Vivid. I love mine, but I just can't resist an unlocked T3 X.

I just cant see myself ever buying a phone that doesn't have a microsd slot. I might could go for one with 32gb storage with no sd slot, but I cant keep my 32gb card in my inspire under 24gb in use, no way I could fit everything onto 16gb total storage including system software, app storage, and all.
I know their selling point now is the whole 25gb of dropbox storage, and running everything "from the cloud" but without an unlimited data plan, I feel like that is just a ploy to trap people into getting charged for data overage.

Sums up my thoughts on the One X completely. I'll pass on this one, too.
Also, until LTE is fully deployed in my area, I'd rather not have a phone with LTE capability. So I'll stick with HSPA devices for now.

What's it called so I can test it out

God, the stupidity of some people boggles the mind.
1. Dual/Quad core is a meaningless metric for performance. The dual core in the One XL is equivalent to or faster than the quad core in the One X, with less power consumption. The Dual core in the Vivid is blown away by either.
2. The One X will run on AT&T's HSPA+ and GSM network, so long as it doesn't have a network lock on it.
3. Yes, the One XL is getting gimped pretty hard in storage. MTP partitioning would help, but the problem is with AT&T trying to cut costs.

I lost 2 months of crap after an app update bricked my iPhone.... NEVER again will I own a device that doesn't removable storage.
Direct Mass storage (in whatever form) and removable storage are 2 of my BIGGEST req's for a phone.
My $0.02.

Buy sensation or wait for Hercules

Is sensation really good ? Does it have problems like g2x ? I have mytouch 4G now. Not sure to wait for Samsung Hercules or get HTC sensation ? What would you guys do ? Please share
Obviously asking this question in the Sensation forum is going to be biased toward the Sensation. I'd get the Sensation....but I'm not you and don't know your situation.

I have the G2x and the Sensation and while they both have tremendous potential they both have multiple issues. I would wait for Hercules as I am going to sell one of the two or both and purchase the Hercules.
buy or wait?
There will always be a newer/better phone that will be out within 3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months of buying your next phone. You have to ask yourself a different question, which phone will have the features I need and will really use? If you are simply holding out for the best phone right now you will be disappointed and frustrated and not fully happy with your next purchase. I love the Sensation. I waited for months to get it and I am happy with my purchase. I have always rooted my android phones to use unavailable features on stock phones like; the wifi tethering with my laptop and tab. This is already built in and available the moment you buy it. ATT and Sprint and Verizon charge for this feature. BOOOOO! Good for T-Mo while it lasts. The phone is responsive, comes loaded with useful apps and widgets, it's sexy and fun to play with I have Netflix working on it (so do many others, I did not invent the wheel), hbo-go, and other streaming apps that work great on the sensation. The camera is decent enough for me not to carry a dedicated camera for photos and videos. For me, I use multimedia daily, and this phone meets my needs. I was buying every new phone that came out and was never satisfied. The sensation is a good buy, the hercules will be out in the next 2-3 months and by then there will be another phone with even better specs that will leave you drooling. I am sure it will be a great phone too.
I was really excited about the announcement of the Hercules and besides the GPS problem, I loved my Vibrant(wife has it now). But IMO, as nice as Sammys designs are(I don't like the design of the Sensation) they make the bezel too big.
My sensation is just as big as my Vibrant even though it has a 4.3 inch screen. I've always hated the added real estate which is why I chose the Sensation over the gx2. If the infuse is any idication of how big the Hercs going to be, I might pass on it and see what comes out next year. Besides, I love the weight of my HTC. I hated how light my Vibrant was even though that thing was literally indestructable.
First off ask yourself the question cause only you can decide ,if you like bland vanilla and super amolded screens then go with Samsung, if you like widgets and eye candy then sensation is the one ....all phones with this much horsepower have issues and I mean all ,once bootloader is unlocked on sensation you'll have the speed to go with the looks ,and if you're not interested in flashing then you still got a great device , but like mentioned earlier after the Hercules there will be something better 3 months later ,it will never end
simply put:
4.3" qHD >>>> 4.5" WVGA
So far all of the information leaked about the Hercules shows that its not using the exynos soc. Just some food for though. The waiting game does suck though because something better will come out after the Hercules. That's just the way it is.

Yep, it's rumored to be using the APQ8060, which is the same as the MSM8260 without the integrated HSPA radio. This is probably because the Hercules will have 42 Mbps HSPA+ connectivity and it will need a separate radio for this and that the Exynos SoC is already in limited quantity (some SGS II variants will have the Tegra 2).

Cannot wait for the HTC unlock. Need to cleanse bloatware.
I love the resolution on this phone. Can't go wrong with qHD, it makes the Sensation that much more beautiful.

I won't go with a Samsung again after having the vibrant. Samsung is the slowest company to come out with updates.

The killer feature on the Hercules is that 42mbps speed. The usb radios that are out are getting speeds that rival Verizon's LTE.
On the down side (for me) is that with a 4.5 inch screen and that Samsung bezel it is going to be a huge phone - nudging into small tablet territory. Battery life will also be tricky.
At the moment I'm not willing to trade a great svelte HTC design for a faster Sammy slab. But we'll see when it comes out.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Given some of the deals we've seen for the Sensation... I'd definitely lean in that direction. 4.5" is pushing it for me, and the qHD is nicer than I originally thought it would be.
I hope there will be good support from the community with custom Roms.. How are the chances for that to happen?
The Sensation is like the Desire... huge Dev support
It is a great Phone and there will be as much People like in the Desire section ... so much support from the DevĀ“s
The Sensation is just great! I would never take a samsung instead of an HTC.... Sense is too great and the bigger Resolution is so nice! You feel it very much and movies are just wow on this phone! And the Sound! Great!
Just a Multimedia Talent..... I would not wait if i am able to use this phone! I will never miss something like this phone!
Just great! There are little mistakes but Touch Wiz ist just crap!

Although it will technically be capable of those speeds, I doubt it will come anywhere near those speeds. The sensation should be able to hit 11Mbs theoretically but the fastest i've had it download was 7.9Mbs. I'm sure the Hercules will be closer to 11Mbs speeds in real world.

They just updated half their Android line up to 2.3.4 in the past two months. They've updated the SGS2 four times and a fifth update to 2.3.4 is due out by the end of the month. There's a difference between getting updates directly from Samsung and having to be dependent on your U.S. carrier to get them out. The global Sensation's are being updated now. Let's see how long it takes T-Mobile to push the U.S. update.

It should get 20 mbps with ease if you're in an area that supports that connectivity. T-Mobile demonstrated those type of speeds using a data stick.

[Q] Which to choose?

I posted this in the One X forums and have no replies and 63 views. I hope you guys can help me with my dilemma. I bought the Inspire off contract at the end of Feb last year and loved it. Qualified for my upgrade in Dec and upgraded to the Vivid near the end of Jan and love it. The One X is the phone I am wanting. That being said I've only used Snapdragon processors and stuck with HTC. Internally, the AT&T version is identical to the Vivid, minus the S4 processor. I will be selling my Inspire to help get this phone, as I have to pay full price whichever route I go. I will have the full price for either device next month and would like to know which I should get? I am really not concerned with LTE as my area won't have for at least another year and I'm always on WiFi. The T3X I can get for $670, the AT&T S4X I will be able to get for $550. Rooting does not concern me at this point, my Inspire is rooted and my Vivid is still locked and stock. Can you please help me with this decision? I don't want to have buyers remorse later this year. I look forward to hearing your opinions.

If you live in a Lte area or upcoming Lte area, this decision should
be a no-brainer imo. I personally would take the s4 soc over the tegra3.
s4x > t3x imho

Nope, live outside of Memphis. They won't get LTE for at least another year, and we will get it prolly another year after that. I'm mostly on WiFi on my LTE capable Vivid.

So, regardless of being only on WiFi, you all would say still get the S4X? Cause I'm thinking the S4X will give me better battery life than the Vivid and the T3X combined. Not to mention the fact it will be cheaper than the T3X.

I think you just answered your own question.
I say go with the S4 version since it will be cheaper. A lot of people will use their AT&T upgrade on the phone just to flip it on Ebay for a profit. You will be able to get the S4 version of the One X for under 500.00.

Lol... Just wait for the at&t version. From what I've read, the one XL
has rock solid battery life with Lte. Hopefully that statement is true.
I think it comes down to how much you value developer support. The One X looks like it will have solid third party developer support, and while I suspect the One XL on AT&T will also have decent support, the international versions of phones usually have significantly stronger developer support.
So, if you were to go with the One XL from AT&T, you'd be trading that extra level of dev support for a lower price, valid warranty, higher performance*, probably better battery life, and LTE (where available).
If support for the One X/XL is anything like the support for the Galaxy S/Captivate, I'd say holding out for the AT&T release of the One XL would be well worth it.
*On most benchmarks.

of that, but I decided I prioritize Lte and the s4 chip more.
It will have ****ty bloat and the logo but I'm cool with that. (It will get

Coming from an Inspire prior to the Vivid, I do value XDA developer support. However, without S-Off I refuse to root my Vivid. However, we are real close to that now. Short term, I don't mind running the phone stock, as that's what I did with my Inspire and now Vivid. I just waited til Thanksgiving to root my Inspire. Once the S-Off process for the Vivid is out, I will finally root it. So, I don't mind using the S4X stock until S-Off, if it ever is, achieved.

Um, no. That is not how multi-core processors work. Seems like you've fallen for marketing gimmickry, instead of actual facts. Few apps, if any are optimized to take advantage of 4 cores, so the only benefit you see is in running processes in the background, switching between tasks, and the like.
If you look at the benchmark comparisons, the S4 beats Tegra 3 in most of them. Some will argue that Tegra 3 wins in some benchmarks, so the difference is probably marginal, either way. But S4 may win for battery life, and Tegra 3 is also having lots of issues on the One X (as you mentioned).

I have the international One X. If I had a choice, I'd go with S4 over Teg3. It's a much more modern and efficient chip and from benchmarks performs almost equally. Battery life on the One X so far is pretty terrifying where the One S with the S4 chip seems to fare much better (but it doesn't have a mammoth display either). The international One X is also experiencing some bizarre graphics and performance issues which are probably Teg3 related as the Asus Prime had similar issues until it received a couple of updates. Since LTE is now integrated in to the SoC the One XL should probably have the best battery life of any LTE device currently available.

The Snapdragon S4 which is a Cortex A15 level SOC and a new micro architecture is more powerful. In most tasks the Snapdragon S4 will be the faster of the two. And in quite a few head to head tests, the S4 literally destroys The Tegra 3. The Tegra 3 is a Cortex A9. Like comparing a old Core 2 Duo to a Intel Sandy bridge chip.
The one XL with the snapdragon S4 will most likely be the fastest SOC CPU wise probably until next year or late this year other than other phones running that chip. There isn't a Cortex A15 due on the horizon until that time later this year. OMAP 5 will be such a SOC. And even it will probably be only on par with the snapdragon S4 not out gun it. And than you have the Exynos 5250 which is a quad core cortex A15 later this year or next year. But than again Qualcomm has the Snapdragon S4 Pro, a quad-core A15 level chip to match it.
That means the Galaxy S3 will still be most likely running a 32nm-based Cortex A9 Exynos mobile processor, the Exynos 4212. The Exynos A15 based 5250 will not be ready until later this year. There is a slight chance it will make it into the Galaxy S3 but the chances are slim since they have not produced any in any numbers for production and the S3 will be released soon. The Exynos 4212 is similar to the Tegra 3 but with a better GPU.
The iphone 5 will run the A5X a dual core Cortex A9 with a quad core GPU at 32nm. Again, older microarchitecture.
So essentially the Snapdragon S4 will make the One Xl one of the most powerful if not the most powerful smartphone for the foreseeable future. Regardless of the Samsung S3 and the iphone 5 if they run the above mentioned SOC's. Which most likely they will.
Hardware wise the One xl will have few equals. Other than the 16GB of memory, it is a beast.
There are some reports of issues with the One X international version connecting properly to AT&T's HSPA network, despite having the proper band compatibility (850/1900 MHz). Also, Tegra 3 is having some video corruption and other issues.
I too was slightly considering the international version for use on AT&T, due to the increased storage, and potentially more developer support. And also probably better battery life by using HSPA instead of LTE. But the issues with the international version so far have me deciding against it.
I was worried about the 16 gb storage as well until i used the one XL for the few days that I actually had in our offices. Dropbox is so tightly integrated with The OS that you don't even know that you don't have more than 16 GB on the phone that's how integrated it is.
I uploaded a bunch of photos to the gallery and every time I went to the gallery to retrieve them they were instantly they're like the pictures were on the memory the whole time! don't worry you have plenty of space as long as you keep your photos and videos to drop box. and 25gb is plenty

Yes, I'm saying that juopunut S-OFF uses HTCDev unlock as a part of its exploit, you need your bootloader to be unlocked before you can get S-OFF.

Upgrade to HTC One S

Hi Sensation users...
I've done a search and haven't found an answer to this question.
Would it be worth it to "upgrade" from a Sensation to the One S? I know the one s is faster with the new chip but how much better overall could it be?
Also with the screen being Pentile? I've read some people say its ok but others not so. Also i haven't been able to find a comparison of the One S to the Sensation screen?
Any thoughts?
Cheers
The OneS is a decent phone, it features Sense4.
IMO its market similar to the NexusS was, in that its the flagship carrier of something new. NexusS has ICS 4.0.3. Its got basically everything that trumps all other phones. 1080pHD Video, Beats (which some might consider bad but its louder than most AOSP), quad core i beleive?
It certainly is a "all rounder" phone. As my contract with Optus is expiring too (aus) im probably going to go for it. My android enthusiast friend enjoys it very much so.
I am definitely NOT going to upgrade to the one S. In my mind it's only an incremental upgrade from the sensation in most ways, and in some it's a step backward. It's a great phone if you want something like an Iphone, but I just can't see getting a phone with only 16 gb's of storage and no removable battery. PLUS the screen isn't any different, same size AND resolution.
Don't get me wrong, the OneS is a good phone but if you've already got a sensation IMO it's not worth the upgrade. And to answer d2 above, it's only a dual core, not quad.

Haaaa, my OneS friend is a Liar! We have benchmark competitions with our androids for no reason, and he claimed that his "cpu cores" made the difference.
I agree with the notion that its an incremental upgrade. If you are buying JUST for sense4, you can have a ported rom version which works (almost) just as good on your sensation.
thanks for replies... what about the screen? do you think the pentile is that much worse than the S-LCD?
I'm not too concerned about the storage as i currently have 8gb which i don't even use up. But not being able to remove the battery is a little bit of a concern as i want to root etc... and concerned if something goes wrong how do i force a shutdown like taking out the battery?
Id wait it out another year the sensation still rocks especially with CM9 or ASAP, just think of what the next batch of phones will have instore, also heard battery life sucks on the ONE as well :-/
The CPU-Upgrade is quite noticeable. It may "just" be a dual core, but it is almost on par with the quad core of the one x. Due to the lower resolution faster in those testing with the native resolution of the device.
Screenwise... Can't say. Looked not much different than the one in the sensation. But they closed the gap between screen and digitizer, so the viewing angles are better.
Overall great phone. But I would not upgrade, since my sensation fulfills the demands I have for a smartphone.

personally my size limit is 4.3" that's why i wouldn't go to the One X. From the leaks i believe the SG3 will be 4.6 or 4.7? like the galaxy nexus? so it automatically rules it out for me.
my biggest concern in the battery life and screen on the one s. but all the reviews have said its super fast...
hmmm
Plus when you go to a "PENTILE" display from Sensation display you will see pixels. its ugly. Once you see it you cant unsee it. Its like the Droid Razr screen. Awful. origianl super amoleds suck really bad. You either need to go with super lcd 2 or Super Amoled Plus HD(hopefully galaxy III)
If I were you I would not, camera and speed is already decent on the sensation. SAMOLED is better but not enough to justify an upgrade. It does have sense 4 and ICS but you may as well wait until the next HTC flagship device to come out.
That being said I am getting the HTC One S because I'm coming over from iPhone and Sense 4 + ICS is a great way for me to get started.
I just got the T-mobile US Sensation but the One S will be out within my 30-day exchange window. I got the Sensation for free on contract. If the One S is ~$100-125 on sale anywhere, I might trade up. I can't really justify an additional $200+ for it...
Yeah I just got a sensation at a pretty good price outright new so pretty happy about that.
My contract has expired so I was thinking about getting the One S on a new contract. I could sell either one if i wasn't happy with the One S.
Thats the only reason I haven't put OrDroid on it yet although i have been using CM7 and CM9 and am very happy with them too!
I've found in stock the sensation is a little slow and i've been getting FC more times than i would like so far and its all stock.

did you guys get the sensation for free through t-mobile loyalty? I'm about to upgrade in a a few months. I'm thinking of getting the Sensation or the One S depending on the price. If they offer the Sensation for free and the One S for $150, I'll probably go for the Sensation. The main advantages of the Sensation that appeal to me are the removable battery, expansion, wifi hotspot, and potentially price. I don't see why people would upgrade to a One S if they just got the Sensation since they wouldn't be fully eligible to upgrade anyway so it wouldn't be worth it...unless they are buying it unlocked.

I got it free from Costco. Both T-mobile and Costco have the HTC Amaze for free now too. Kind of like an upgraded Sensation, but a bit bulkier. Development for it is picking up, but at the price of free it is also a great alternative to the One S.

Nah mate i'm in australia and someone got one as a gift and posted it up for cheap so i snapped it up
Haven' done anything to it yet but scouring around the dev forums to see which one i like. I am wanting to go with One S software like the OrDroid as it seems to be getting more stable. only a few niggling issues left and the fact that you can run the Sensation at 1.5Ghz is a bonus oh and the removable battery etc...
Definitely not
Can't replace the battery, no SD card extension and soon we will have a fully working sense 4.0 for the sensation which is already OC to 1.5 and up.
I'd upgrade to the One X at least it has a serious hardware upgrade.
I'll probably "upgrade" to a One S. I am really liking how thin it is and I do miss having an AMOLED display. But I'll actually decide once I get to feel and use one in my hands.
I was taking a close look at the One S specs today. It really doesn't look like much an upgrade over the Sensation at all. Same chipset family - 28nm manufacturing instead of 45nm, so it will allow a slightly higher clock speed. Benchmarks don't put it any faster out of the box the what we are getting already.
The only real difference is the dedicated imaging chip. Other than that, it is pretty much just a Sensation that ships with ICS & Sense 4.0. - one that you can't even upgrade storage or battery. Those 2 things are huge to me and the primary reason I stay away from Apple products.
It's marginal upgrade at best. Really quite disappointing.

Switched to the Int'l One X and switched back

Hey there guys just want to fill in all the people who were thinking about switching to the international One X because of bigger space, more dev support, quad core and such.
First of all I was always interested of the international version because of the Tegra 3 and the bigger space while believing that I'd have a better experience with the phone.
I decided to order the Tegra 3 version through Amazon and when I received it, I delved right into the custom roms that are available. Now while I very much enjoyed the dev support, something about the int'l version never felt up to par with the att version.
Coming from just a user experience perspective I want to compare these differences of which I think are important to make the device more superior and user "enjoy-ability".
The Speed and Fluidity of the UI:
Like I said before the Int'l version was not as smooth as the ATT version. I used the Android Revolution HD rom and while it was a great rom it never felt up to par to say the CleanRom.
And just to add to this, the Int'l One X ran very hot compared to the ATT version.
Battery
Personally I felt that both had very good battery life and felt even as long as you tweak up the One X with some kernel and rom tweaks provided.
Data
This is what made me cringe when I decided to use the Int'l One X. Often times I need to look up something on google maps really quick and with the ATT One X, I always felt that it succeeded my expectation because of the LTE. So if you're in an area with LTE, the ATT is a very good choice vs the international version.
Customization
The Int'l One X hands down have the most customization with MIUI which I tried and the CM9 builds out there. There are even a lot more mods and themes available. So I was always able to mess with my phone "endlessly".
Now with that said the Android market have a lot of good widgets that can help with your customization needs. And I never felt that I could not customize my ATT One X enough with the apex launcher, minimalistic texts, simi folder, simi calendar etc...
Space
With ~9gb vs ~25gb of space, there isn't too much to argue about here over which is superior and no matter what people say about using just dropbox or google drive. It's aways nice to have enough space to store your stuff that you can access easily.
However, I do prefer more space (duh) I never ran past the 6gb mark on my phone.
Conclusion
So in the end the speed and fluidity of the ui and LTE made me switch back to the ATT version (not that I had return it, I just had it in the box while I test out the int'l one x).
Now dev support is always nice and much nicer when there is a lot of it but what we have now for the ATT One X keeps me satisified. And most likely we will have more dev support now that the US customs had stopped delaying HTC phone shipments.
And for those who are switching to the Samsung Galaxy S III, have fun with your silly looking phone

What cha gonna do with the intl one? I've been seriously thinking about switching cause I love to tinker. Also, how was your 4g speeds? Im getting about 6-7mb down without lte. Just wondering if the intl would be anywhere close to it.

Damn thanks man, i just got offered a grey international version with a scratch over the camera that apparently doesn't effect performance. He also wanted 50$ which i think is bogus. They are the same phone! Anyways I'm sticking to Rogers one x... I get awesome lte in Vancouver

@ kravguy:
Without LTE both phones use HSPA+ or HSDPA, so the speeds should be the same.
The international one can get up to 21.6Mbit/s on HSPA+ like your at&t one I guess
@ OP:
Is there a big difference in smoothness?
And also how did they compare in speed, like when opening apps etc?
Thanks

Well if you've never used the ATT One X and just went straight to the Int'l one then you wouldn't care but I notice a moderate difference in smoothness especially since most apps out there don't take advantage of the quad core.
My 4g speeds were the same as my other 4g non lte phones

You know what, I'm fine having 2 cores.. the interface is what is limiting the amount of stuff you can do at once with phones anyways. Until there is some type of interactive or holographic interface or something of the sort, we just wont be able to input commands fast enough for the phone to end up lagging behind. This One X (rogers version with the qualcomm chip) is really snappy. I haven't tried an international version yet, and don't think I ever will.

I used Android Revolution HD rom with franco's latest kernel. What I'm saying is that I did not notice any noticeable difference on battery once I used that rom/kernel. And the S4 will be superior to the Tegra 3 processor except for gaming.

One X+????

So if you haven't seen engadet or other sites there seems to be a HTC One X+ POSSIBLY coming to ATT and would be running stock Android 4.1.1 could this have been the reason for the recent price drop? Is it worth holding out on upgrading until this is all cleared up?
I really have to ask, but what else could they do to make this phone better?
Ship it with jelly bean? Cmon that's not going to be worth it, especially if its just a 'slightly' upgraded phone
The one x+ is going to be a tmobile phone, its going to have a quad core tegra with jelly bean, so its not an upgrade from ours. This phone beats out the tegra

But yes, it will be running stock, but available through T-Mobile. Will give a link if needed.

we might soon but the devs are working their asses off and for every two steps they make forward at&t takes three steps back
The One X+ on AT&T would just be the international version with a slight overclock and an LTE radio, maybe a bigger battery. Not really all that great, and really it would be an awful move that would dilute the brand and create confusion due to the lack of a single flagship.
Now, if there was a One X on T-Mobile, that would be great, they don't have a true HTC flagship for this year.
The same would go for Verizon. They need a true HTC flagship phone, and preferably one that is just a Evo LTE in a different design.
Tmobile is said to be getting the hox+

XD we have a really stable cm10. I don't need a camera. My device has lte and the s4 at least on jelly bean is way faster than the tegra. Also look on your phone. Are you constantly having to delete stuff to make space? Chances are nobody needs extra space in the age of cloud storage. If it was a very little difference then it wouldn't matter but the tegra was rushed together in order for them to say they had the first quad core processor. It's old and it's sloppily built.

Yes I got to agree with you about the tegra 3 being rushed out, like a old car with a new engine duck taped in . Although about 16gb (more like 10gb) being enough data, I would say no. Yes, there is cloud but not everyone has a good/unlimited data plan (I only have 100mb for $50) which kinda counters the advantage of cloud technology.
