Nexus Prime Hands-on Video Released - It's Curved

The SAMSUNG MOBILE UNPACKED 2011 event will be held on October 18th in HongKong.
The device has a curved display similar to the Nexus S. Download the SAMSUNG MOBILE UNPACKED Application for more details
You see, several sources are now confirming Nexus Prime will most likely run a dual-core 1.5GHz TI OMAP 4460 CPU along with 1280 x 720 Super AMOLED display.
It is likely to have 4.6-inch screen with 320 ppi which looks beastly enough against iPhone 4S’ 3.5-inch 960 x 640 326-ppi retina display.
Have a look at the recent shots of the Nexus Prime

I would be surprised if Samsung didn't put their Exynos in it.
But either way that design is quite revolutionary for a cell phone. It looks so sick. And knowing it's from Samsung, the quality will br top notch.
Now if only I wasn't a broke ass college student I'd definitely nab one!

Meh, i'm so sly , i managed to talk my mom into nabbing one for me her and maybe my dad if he wants, for they are blackberry users, but amazed with what I do on my Androids, so I said this is definitely the phone for them, AS LONG as it is on T-Mobile

lol that alone make some of us pro SmartPhone users laugh. As SamSUX and top notch quality should not even be put in same line much less paragraph. It will be just another typical Nexus based POS that is like always behind the curve as always. Just watch when it comes out it will already be outdated like iPhoney.

It's okay man, it's impossible to convince people once they become fanboys of one thing. I love HTC too, probably will always stick to HTC. But I gotta give props to where it's due! That new Nexus is going to be so sick. Especially since it's pure Google, which means you won't have to rely on stupid Samsung for updates.

Im with you.. I used to jump from HTC to another
HTC Pro -> HTC Hero - > HTC Google N1
and I wanted another HTC but at least in my 3G band frequency (850) the best option in the market was IMO the Galaxy S (at the time I got it) and now the Galaxy S2 which I have. Everything was perfect (except no flash on the S and slowness I didnt know existed until using a dual core cell) but I still missed and currently miss the HTC feel to the cell phones with their designs and metal body at least on the N1.
I cant wait for the Nexus Galaxy or is it Nexus Prime after all? Im gonna go from my S2 to that once the price is right

HTC ONE X vs Samsung galaxy s3

So I had the Samsung rep in today showing me the Samsung galaxy s3 today, first thing I did was run a quadrant bench mark and antutu, quadrant benchmark for both were pretty similar. On antutu both phone were pretty similar too, I did like the Samsung feature where you can minimise a video window and watch it while carry out other tasks, neat,,, hope fully it can be hacked to make run on other quad-core phones, build qualiy I have to say was very poor for the Samsung s3, the back cover is a flimsy bit of plastic, so for build quality HTC ONE X wins hands down. I do like the ability of removable battery and Memory card which I wish the one x had,
So guys what are your opinions...
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

can already do the pop up player thing with "stick it".
As for HOX vs. GS3. I had 2 HOX that were faulty. sent them back and stuck with my Note waiting for GS3 thinking it would be the don of phones. Watched the launch event and was underwhelmed enough to get my 3rd HOX. this one is spot on. I'm lucky/stupid/daft enough to carry a work phone and a personal phone, so might get GS3 as my work handset, definitely want to try it hands on first though.

Yeah but stick it is very glitchy, I have had many Samsung phones and HTC, that's one of the perks working for mobile phone retailer, I have not had any Hox back faulty yet lol,
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

being a stock feature i have no doubt that pop up player is better than stick it, which i have to say i uninstalled as didnt use it. I'm not sure i'd use pop up player, although i have said that in the past about many things that now form part of my daily mobile life! i can see me using that more than the voice recognition thing.
I have no sway one way or the other on sense vs. touchwiz, i am comfortable with either. I was interested in your comments on build quality. I just sold my Galaxy Note and GS2 shortly before that after getting the HOX, i would say the Note and GS2 are better built than the HOX, not as nice a design, and the materials dont feel as classy, but it seemed somehow more solid?? are you saying that the GS3 is more flimsy feeling than the GS2 or Note? disappointing if that is the case, although i will have to hold it in my hand and judge for myself.

HTC Evo3D was one of the worst phones I ever had in terms of build quality. My SGSII isnt as sturdy as my OG Evo and my old Hero, but its held up quite well over the last few months. As far as the HOX vs SGSIII, not having expandable memory is a deal breaker for me. Ill wait to SGSIII is released or get a note if it comes to Sprint.

Overall build quality of both phones is good, Hox is better feel, the s3 when hold it feels cheap, again its a personal opinion, even the Samsung rep said I agree with you, but at the end of the day he works for Samsung so he was quite reluctant to say any thing bad about s3, lol

Once I get actual stock I will post pic of benchmarks for both phones,

The build quality has nothing to do with the materials used. HTC uses metals that are heavy and give the impressions of quality, yet they can't keep dust from getting under your screen ... Samsung may use plastic but that keeps the weight low. My SGS 2 (TMo version) compared to My Sensation is hands down for my SGS 2 and they use the same SoC..

On the One X the browser sucks because it keeps using the companion core, and overall the Tegra 3 gets hammered by the new Exynos pretty much everywhere. Anyway if I had to pick a phone now I'd probably get the One S: cheaper, better looking, not too big and with the excellent S4. I'm really looking forward to those WP8 devices with S4s on board. Nokia top notch quality and style + S4 equals epic in my book

Quadrant scores aren't exactly the best way to demonstrate which is better.
A video of both phones side by side performing tasks will be much more telling.

Cool. I heard it hit close, but wasn't sure how close. Do you have anything done to your HOX?
You might want to use the power button + home button to take screenshots in order to prevent the volume changing and getting in the way of your shots. Just a tip.

I think ac did. Video of basic tasks and the att version did better in most tasks. I of course tegra is better in gaming

When someone claims something is faster, I always ask "At what?" The hardware is half the story. It's what application the hardware is used for is what we can actually make use of.
Yes, the Snapdragon S4 Krait beats the Tegra 3 in a benchmark and vice versa has happened in a few instances as well. Essentially, there should be little to no perceivable difference between the two processors. HTC would be stupid to allow for that to happen and Qualcomm equally stupid to allow the Tegra 3 to beat their latest and greatest.
Don't get me wrong because I believe multiple benchmarks are important in order to compare hardware/software to a set standard. But given the small margins in scores, its hard to worry about one being better than the other.

Well for one thing the att one x has much better battery life as well as 4glte

To be expected. The S4 is a much more modern chip. Of all the stats the only one that's surprised me is that Teg3 battery life isn't as bad as you'd expect based on it being two 40nm A9 chips glommed together. It actually outperforms the SGS3 on talk time and web browsing when adjusted for battery size. AMOLED kills it on video playback because of the lower drain from darker colors.
Here's all three. And before people get disillusioned about the SGS3 scores, benchmarks are meaningless once speeds pass a certain point. The OS and apps aren't capable of using all the speed available in Exynos Quad, S4, or Teg3. Also when looking at the video scores of older phones keep in mind PPI on new HD phones is 30+% higher. So to compare the actual GPU improvements subtract 30% from an older non-HD phone's score. Same applies to the qHD display on the One S.

We're also blissfully free of all the "enhanced" software provided to make your attachment to AT&T easier and more permanent.

But if we was just satisfied with what is NEEDED then there wouldn't be any progress. Not to mention that LTE needs to be that fast for when it gets bogged down by the iPhone 5 when it drops, just like the 3G network did when the 2nd generation iPhone came out.

Getting an s2 skyrocket.

Got an iPhone 4 from work today that's almost new and I'm trading it for a like new skyrocket tonight. I'm still keeping my infuse though.
I'm excited. While I love my infuse that s2 should be fast as hell!

Why do you want a Skyrocket over the regular SGH-i777? Is it size, or Lte compatibility?

S2 i9100 is 4.3"

S2 i777 AT&T ?
Specs says they are 4.3" gsmarena 4.5"

It's 4.5 Super Amoled Plus. Same as the Infuse.
I wanted the Skyrocket for the faster cpu, double the ram and double the storage. Plus LTE is amazing fast. Like wow fast.

I really prefer 4.5" than a little better hardware (i727 against i777)

Is the resolution the same on the skyrocket? To me resolution > screen size but anything less than 4.3 is really get too small. I think the new gs3 with a 4.5 inch screen would have been absolutely perfect!

I like the specs of the Skyrocket, but it seems development is better for the i777. But Ima do some more research. My upgrade's in August, so its gonna be one of the 2.

IMO, iPhones are for those who want to look like they fit in with "the crowd". Android to me is for THEEE Individual. Customization, personalization, and self expression.
Say a room has 10 people full of a crowd of people ranging from say 15-40, mixed genders. 6 with iPhones, 4 with various Androids. I can almost guarantee that the iPhone users will have the same if not similar looks on their screens. Same messy apps too close together, and generic wallpapers.
The 4 Androids would be catered to reflect the Individuals who own them, even if they are non rooted, expect different home launchers on some and varied wallpapers.
This is just a random scenario n again, just my opinion

You should find the definition of "literally"cause I don't think it means what you think it means. They are very much not the same phone.
Also I would have preordered the sgs3. It's worth the $50 more over the sgs2 skyrocket.

Just the same look as S2 or infuse, but with 1280x720 4.65" screen :victory:
I think i777 share roms with i9100. So, dev is much bigger than on i727.

the skyrocket hd was a 4.65" screen. sameone thats in the galaxy nexus. its also the galaxy s2 hd in korea.

You are right
The gnexus is a nice phone. But... onscreen buttons make it loss half inch or more. Also knowing the hard burn-in problem that affects amoled screens, that buttons will be printed forever :crying:

The nightly cm9 builds are nice, I even played with cm10 a few hours ago. Amazing things are happening for this phone.
I don't miss my infuse and I recommend that everyone who can upgrade should. Its nice having such power. Dual core 1.8ghz whips that 1.6 single all to hell. The double ram helps too.

It's a smaller One X. It actually beats the One X in bench marking due to it's lower resolution, but yeah, it's pretty much the same phone--if we're talking the american versions--just smaller.

The One S definitely is an underrated phone. Even HTC themselves don't really pay much attention to it.

yeah all the advertisements htc make are about the HTC One X...
for me, the htc evo LTE 4G is the "hidden king" of all smartphones, its the same as the htc one x, plus it has SD card slot, has a kid stand or something like that XD, and has the s4 Snapdragon which beat the tegra 3
hope htc release a GSM version of it soon, i already bought a htc one S because i like the 4.3" phones and because is so thin

Not true, I saw a lot of comercials for the one S like the one when they were falling from the sky and taking those pics they did them for the one X and the one S. Also Tmo still plays them a lot too.

The hd2 is better than all three

OP you are FUNNY!

The HOX and HOS are perfect phones, if you're lucky enough to get a defect-free one. HTC really has shot their reputation w the quality management of this year phones.

I've never seen a One S advert. It's all One X. I understand they're obviously going to push their flagship phone, but the One S has just been neglected and is on par with the One X in terms of performance, just a small size. HTC big up photos being taken specifically off of the One X, when the One S has the exact same camera capabilities.
What annoyed me the most is the release of the Desire C. First the Desire is now the bottom of the barrel budget phones, when the original Desire was the flagship line, and it's the last budget phone HTC are doing, yet it has NFC capabilities, which the One S could have easily had, and should have.
As said above, HTC aren't what they used to be, and seem to be leaning towards Apple's business practices.

There's no way I would agree to this...
My One S can't have a stable USB tethering connection, so much that I went back to using my iPhone 4 as main phone. Before I root it and install more recent ROM (like the 1.84), I had numerous data issues: No data, No data despite having the icon on screen, Stuck on Edge, all required a reboot to fix. The phone have poor network reception barely better than my iPhone 4 "hold in the wrong way". I still can't use Skype. In less than one month I dented the case after a fall of 1 foot high on ceramic and scratched the screen in normal use (first time I scratch a screen without an accident). I won't comment on multitasking performance...

I love the phone but very disappointed we do not have NFC

Reasons I got rid of the HTC one s every call had static all three phones multitasking non existent data was highly annoying hit or miss if not for the static I would have kept it but HTC that was your last chance done gettin ripped
I'll be honest tho I'm really starting to consider iOS all my phones are android but I'm starting to get disappointed with lag doing simple crap like scrolling hopefully 4.1 will help alot in this regard

I got something for you OP, since you decided to make this thread to make yourself feel better. My Galaxy S III bests your One X in almost every way. The only thing I would give the One X is looks. All that slideshow you linked to says is the One X is "the greatest camera phone ever", which I would have to disagree with (objectionable). It also says, "The One X might have snagged top honors, but it edged out the Galaxy S III by a fragment. Laced with powerful hardware and dope next-gen features, Samsung’s mobile powerhouse embodies its “Next Big Thing” tag line.":

And benchmarks? Benchmarks don't prove anything. I also find it funny that Nvidia pays developers to tone down the graphics on non-Tegra 3 phones so their chipset looks better. Good thing my Galaxy S III runs Tegra 3 games better than Tegra 3 phones like the One X:

You know this is the S4 HTC One S section, right? No one here owns a tegra unless they have two or more phones. Were running on the sexy S4.
By the way: 5015 my ass. My phone on stock pulls 5300.

In that case:
There's really no use comparing day-to-day performance. In 3D-intensive tasks is where you'll notice a huge different in GPU performance.

Yeah, are using the Int version? I was assuming S4 S3? I'm still trying to get my hands on a Int S3.
The 225 is a joke compared to Mali.
