So I wanted to upgrade to a new phone like the amaze but it makes sense to wait two more or 3 months for the quad core processor phones right guys? Let's hear some feeback and what are you gonna do? Wait it out too??
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Yea, I agree. I get bored easily, this is the first phone I've kept for this long (about a year). At first, I was looking at a gradual upgrade, something like a sensation or a g2x... Then I figured if I'm gonna spend $$, might as well just do it for the long haul & look into an amaze, galaxy s2 or even wait for a galaxy nexus... After all is said & done, I'm still using my glacier & will continue to do so. We've got an awesome dev section & something better will always be just ahead of the curve, but I'm definitely waiting for 2012...

Yea bro I feel ya..it'll be best to wait it out cause if I buy a phone I might as get one that will be quad and better camera and faster processor..I love my mytouch it has been with me through alot

I'm interested in the HTC ville. Not quad core but the krait dual core processor looks interesting. Especially since ICS is optimized for dual core.

+1...next phone will probably be the Edge when it drops. specs are pretty awesome
Rumored samsung galaxy s3
currently researching sg2 and nexus prime..
Wait for the quad core nexus. Quad cores will have better architectures and will be more stable,better battery life, and etc.

The Ville is the 4.3" ICS phone right? That sounds so much nicer size-wise than the massive Galaxy Nexus. Should come out more compact than the Amaze or Sensation due to the removal of buttons.
However the render appears to have a screen aspect ratio of 1.64 or so, which is closer to the 5x3 of an 800x480 display than the 16x9 (1.777) of a qHD display. So the render is misshapen.

Yes the ville is the 4.3" screen one. Same screen as the RAZR i believe. Its gonna be nice because the 28nm processor allows for it to be really thin. So it shouldn't be much heavier than the MT4G.

it will come with 1.5GH snapdragon s4 processor and here's the full specification of it. A 4.3-inch qHD (960×540) Super AMOLED display; a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor; 8MP camera on the back with 1080p HD video capture; a 1,650mAh battery; HSPA+-connectivity; and Beats Audio Technology. The handset will apparently measure in at only 8mm thick,will launch with Android 4.0, and will also launch HTC’s Sense 4.0 overlay.
I'm just gonna wait for the next Nexus. Saves me the headache of whether my phone will have the latest Android software.

Ugh, when you say same screen as the RAZR, I hope you don't mean including the PenTile matrix. I thought I wouldn't notice it at qHD resolution, but I tried it in store and the colour fringing was just awful.

If you are waiting for the greatest smartphone you will be waiting forever, there is always going to be a rumor about a supposed OMG smartphone RIGHT before you was about to purchase the smartphone you thought was awesome. In my opinion, to have a really satisfying smartphone experience there needs to be great utilization of software and hardware. Software is something that has always been a bit of a hindered on devices with custom skins (most of the Android ecosystem). The only ways to really circumvent this is to either buy a Nexus devices or root your device in HOPES of finding a solid ROM to flash. I think this makes the decision quite easy, buy the Galaxy Nexus.
I am planning to buy galaxy note or htc one x..
What do you suggest?
thanks
Both are great phone.
Latest is one x.

HTC one x
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA
onex, if u can wait. but I like the ability to replace the battery in my phone, sooo that depends
IMO the HTC One X is the superior device.
- Better processor (the AT&T dual core version is better than the regular quad core version!)
- Better screen (but only by a fraction)
- Better size (in my opinion)
- Beats Audio
- Better UI (in my opinion)
- Better build quality
The only advantage the Note has is a removable battery, although I've heard that the one included in the HTC is awesome.
Either way, both are great devices.
If I helped, please say thanks
yeah now the battle is between one x and one xl
the xl comes with the latest snapdragon S4 dual core krait which beats the quad core tegra 3...and LTE.
Really confused between the x and the xl.
thanks for your replies.
Bro ur in India right? So i think we'll be getting the one x only we only have 3g here as of now no 4G. So no need for confusion. I'm also planning to get the one x

1.before i have i galaxy s2 (very fast phone and you have enough roms )
2. now i have a galaxy note is a big galaxy s2 very fast the s-pen very nice the size used to it
the htc have nice animations is also a good phone for me galaxy note
The HTC's probably got better hardware, but if you want to scribble things with a stylus you might be better off with the note.

Great support for htc here
How is galaxy nexus? I am getting a good deal over here ...around 160 usd cheaper than htc one x's probable price. I love vanilla ics and nexus series is great with updates.

Hi,
At the moment i have the htc desire. I like to play games and browse a lot. Here are some criteria about a phone:
- dual core or quad core
- screen at least 4,3 inch
- no pentile screen
- sd card slot
- ics
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
samsung galaxy s3, note
Motorola atrix
Note and s3 have pentile so they arent a option.
I think there are not much phones that have all these things, the one x has no sd card slot, same with the galaxy nexus.
Anything else?

The new LG Eclipse was the name if i remember with 2150mAh and IPS screen.
Don't forget the 2GB ram.
Or you can go with RAZR Maxx
Which carrier?
AT&T : HTC One X or the upcoming Samsung Galaxy 3 (July release)
Verizon: Droid Razr is really the only good Android right now
Sprint: HTC Evo 4G LTE coming out this week
Tmobile: HTC one S
If you're not carrier specific go for the HTC ONE X
Hey, so you don't want pentile screen. Choose the galaxy s2. You'll get a huge amount of roms and development support. Its still one of the best phones ever made ^^

the one thing I hate about one s is only 16gb memory and no memory card slot and for me 16 gb isn't enough
so that's why I think desire x is very good package it is not like have awesome hardware but very good hardware and also use the one series camera n chipset so it is a good package

Oh, I wasn't comparing the One S with the Desire X, just that when the One S came out it felt like a successor, unibody, good hardware.. mid/high price range.
I agree however with what you said, the lack of expansion might bother some, I personally don't make use of my SD card that much on my desire S but I can easily imagine some people doing so.
Do keep in mind the screen is only WVGA which is quite poor for today's standards.

That's the only down side of desire x I guess and HTC also haven't declared the processor s3 or s4 I guess desire x is targeted for midrange as desire s was
Sent from my Desire S using xda app-developers app
One S is way too big, this Desire X is really sexy I think it will be my next phone, but I am afraid about the Adreno 203 GPU (our Desire S has 205)...
Anyway, I'll wait for it to be unlocked and 1st MIUI port done, I need MIUI as my OS.
True. But keep in mind that the Desire S and Desire X has the same screen resolution. Based on my research. It will have Full Sense 4. It should be much easier to port than resizing.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app
Actually I saw some advised post on gsmarena about Desire X that changed my mind, especially the HSDPA thing :
Frndz i wana share something.
This phone has =>
* no scratch resistant glass protection
* no hd video recording
* no front camera
* only cortex A5 cpu no cortex A9 cpu (some games need cortex a9)
* no adreno 205 gpu only adreno 203 gpu
* no dual sim
* not hot swepable micro sd card
* no sutter key for camera
* only 233 ppi density (so not much crispy in browsing)
* poor screen viewing angle
* no adobe flash
* no beats Audio head phone in the box (have to buy separatly and it will cost around $10 or 550INR)
* only hsdpa 7.2 mbps not 14.4 mbps
* no on-the-go support (otg) functionality
* no Dvix-Xvid support out of the box
* only 5 mp camera
* no document editor out of the box (have to pay for install separatly )
* no dedicated mic for active noice cancellation
* no HDMI port for tv oupput
* only 4gb internal memory in which only 1gb is for user avilable
* no [email protected] video playback (not confirmed)
* no NFC
Very-Sorry for any mistake if i did .
So guys think before buy.
I will suggest xperia u and samsung galaxy ace 2 in this price tag.

MSM8960, dual-core Krait, this is the same chip as GS III, ONE X, LUMIA 920, XPERIA GX/SX and other high end phones.
Good thing is it should make the ROM ports easier xD
This is definitly going to be my next phone.
I am not really sure about the Desire X perfs, dual core should give it better perfs in system and 2D stuff like using the browser or navigating in menus, but in 3D apps (games) it should have similar perfs as the Desire S.
Hey developers need your suggestions......
Which smartphone should i buy
1. Htc Thunderbolt
2. Htc Evo 4g
If you're on AT&T I'd say neither. It all depends on your carrier for the most part.

My only fear with the DNA is that it might lose developer support. HTC isn't in good relations with developers at current time, whereas Samsung devices have awesome support. I like the hardware on the DNA way more though.

The DNA supports USB Host. So use of a OTG cable to a flash drive will serve the same purpose as a SD card. There are even WiFi enabled drives as well. So not having an SD slot was not a deal breaker for me. I'm glad there are other options than just cloud based services.

HTC M7 Sense 5 468ppi 1.7Ghz Quad core
HTC M7 rumored to replace One X in February with 4.7-inch, 468ppi screen and Sense 5
the M7 is said to improve upon HTC's current flagship Android phone, the One X, nearly across the board: with a 4.7-inch HD display at 468ppi (reportedly called a SoLux display), a 1.7GHz Snapdragon quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, and LTE and HSDPA radios. The M7 will also reportedly carry an improved camera with a 13-megapixel sensor and an f/2.0 lens.
M7 should be headed to Verizon and Sprint, and that there's a possibility it could be the first smartphone since the HTC Touch Pro 2 to be offered on the four largest US carriers.
The htc droid devices usually get sources quicker than their other devices like the Thunderbolt. I think that they are like htcs version of a development device.
