I was waiting to decide but now I've made up my mind on the One X, despite not having a changeable battery or external microsd, I'd rather have that instead of a cheap flimsy back case on the s3, or cheap plastic ugly squarish centre button
I was looking forward to the S3 until I saw it, it looks like ****, is it just me? curves are too deep around the edges, looks like that old webos phone the palm pre if I recall,
the s3 has some good specs close to the one x but the phone design and the ugly touchwizz ui lets it down, the icons look like they were built for an old nokia colour phone back in the days of 8310,

couldn't agree more, already have my one x and the design seems so much more modern and sleek than the s3, i was willing to trade up to the s3 if it was good and because sammy's have always had a strong dev community here on xda, but i am disappointed by the s3, feel like they held back alot

Who gives a crap about touchwiz or sense for that matter...AOKP FTW on either phone.
you can say that again, no doubt the s voice will be ported over, thats the main feature and motion controls
the ui just sucks, ive never liked samsungs ui's
their tv's are good and thats as far as it goes for samsung with me, I held up on the One X cause of the S3, and it's seems like a waste of time,
I'm actually pissed off and it's bothering me,
I'd rather get a decent UI with the phone rather than wait for roms and rooting etc. you know what I mean?? and no It's not just the launcher I'm talking about, its the whole ui itself
I've got the sensation XE and been using Sense 4 on it and all I can say it is fantastic,

Problem is that I'm not waiting for the fall/winter to get an LTE version with an S4. So I'm going to be getting the AT&T One X now.
I'm in the same boat.
I'm a serial ROM flasher on my orginal GS, and have been running CM9 for some time now. Legend of a phone but it's showing its age now.
Didn't get an SII because I wanted to wait for the SIII, did and am totally disappointed with it. Not interested with the heavy emphasis on software rather than design - it is horrifically ugly!
I'll be going to the Three store and picking a One X up tomorrow
I hope the dev community shows the One X lots of love... my initial thoughts are how great it would be to see a One X running CM9 with the Sense camera.... although I understand this is almost like asking the impossible
Flashing the One X seems like a lot more work than the GS/GSII. I hope they aren't easy to brick
S3 is designed with nature in mind, stones and leaves and water. ONE X is designed with the future and awesomeness in mind
according to this the one x (us version at+t) is superior as the htc one s is

Problem is that those benchmarks were written to test only single or dual core processors. There really isn't a good bench marker out yet to effectively measure quad core phones.
Why would Samsung or HTC put out quad core phones that under perform a dual core processor that they were only forced to use because the quad doesn't support LTE?
In that case, the One S is better than the Global One X, which we know they would not allow to happen as it would hurt sales of their flagship.

& the AnTuTu scores are.....
I'm not a benchmarking fan as they don't tell the full story, but AnTuTu is true multi core testing & I've always found it to be the most reliable in the past - especially when checking different custom roms & kernels on past devices.

You basically just said something (marked in bold) that has been on my mind, it wouldn't make sense for phone manufacturers to put out quad cores just to have them beat by dual cores. That's simply thinking logically
Hope we see increased quad core bench marks soon. Blah, who gives a damn. They are just digits, In the end, in real life usage the phones will only differ in what? milliseconds? I'm outta here!
Good day or should i say night all

I'm really happy with the H1X, I had the Galaxy S2 but the S3 hasn't leaped ahead of the pack too much, seems S3 Exynos may be better than Tegra, but not about the GPUs.
Great HTC win

tablet looks very good
Well.. I'm really disappointed. I mean REALLY. When you compare the hardware it's almost nothing new.
HTC Desire S vs HTC Desire
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3776&idPhone2=3077
I'm a HTC fan since many years and it's hard for me to say this, but HTC is really behind now and is only trying to make money and sell us BULL****!!!
Just see the comparison and you will know what I'm talking about... minor changes. NOT EVEN THE PROCESSOR HAS CHANGED!!!
The Incredible S is also nothing new under the sun. Not even a dual-core processor... No 1GB of ram.
Seriously, HTC, WHAT THE ****?
The hardware specs of Galaxy S II can eat HTC's newest devices for breakfast.
And HTC really made a big mistake because right now it's no more about the software, it's the hardware that matters. Android is almost the same on all devices and with a community like XDA everything (costumization) is possible.
RIP HTC, I will never buy a device from you anymore.
I feel pretty let down by HTC's showing at MWC.
I was expecting an Atrix/Galaxy 2 rival (aka the Pyramid) and they show us unibodied versions of phones that have been out since last year with slightly bigger batteries running Gingerbread.
I don't know whether to jump ship to the Atrix or to wait and see if they produce the Pyramid at a later date.
I'm not particularly interested in the Tablet, and if I was to get one i'd get the Moto Xoom or Samsung Galaxy 10.1 as they are pretty much the same as each other anyway with stock Honeycomb, rather than a massively skinned and shelled Gingerbread device.
HTC needs to stop trying to insist upon making Sense the core product they are selling and start making some big leaps in hardware, and soon..
Fail
I was expecting a dual core android 2.4 phone with physical keyboard and a android 3.0 tablet. None arrived...
Very dissapointed.
Was hoping for the Pyramid - something to rival the Galaxy S2 in terms of hardware specs.
I really want a HTC and was waiting for this news to determine how to proceed.
If you want the technology the Galaxy S2 seems to be the handset to get, but Samsungs TouchWiz just doesn't even compare to HTC's sense.
For me its the Desire S for now.....I need Sense in my life.
WHERE IS THE PYRAMID!!!!!!
remind me again why i should get rid of my N1?
oh yeah nothing... HELLO!!!! HTC!!! are you even trying anymore?
the only thing turing me off of the Atrix was the possible locked boot loader, and wanting to see what HTC was about to push out....
now that we have one thing off the list.... i feel that i may be leaving HTC for a while until they get their act together... maybe thats what they need... sales not to climb like they have, an actual slap to their bottom line that says consumers are done buying the same thing over and over... but sadly, even with the numbers we have, until the masses relize this, HTC sale numbers will continue to rise and no real reason for them to change...
in their eyes, if it aint broke, why fix it?
for me, its a total dissapointment.
i mean WTF ARE THEY THINKING
its the same ****.. AGAIN
there is still no phone that would be a REAL upgrade to my HD2..
i hoped for a new flagship.. i hoped it so bad..
i hoped for something that would frag all others away.. but they stay at the same level.. just to get even more money out from the same old **** >.>
only good thing of htc this time was the tablet. but thats it, and i guess they will overprice it, so i won't get it
i'll stick to my HD2. **** you HTC, u idiots
Sent from my HD2
like all of you, I'm very disappointed... where is my Pyramid!!?
Meh, totally under-whelming.
Build quality of the Desire S sounds nice, and i wouldn't mind having one, but it's not specced any higher than my N1 and of course is full of 'Sense' crap which i'd have to nuke from orbit before using the thing.
im really thinking of totaly switching to moto now
the atrix and the xoom tab are just too cool...
and more sexy.
Whats up Guys @ HTC
Every Smartphone producer shows their flagships at MWC this week, and HTC???
Not even one word about the Pyramid is in planning?
Sure we have to wait...
(it was the same with the Snapdragon 1GHz Processor, the TG01 was 4 months before the HD2 out)
And im pretty sure the wait was worth it!
So now we can buy soon (non HTC ):
- Many Dual core (even different Processors) Phones
- 3D Display Phones
- Ultra bright Display ( 700 Nit - Daylight usable) Phones
- Ultra thin and light (Dual Core) Phones (~8,5mm)
And whats coming from HTC? - only a "Sense" with streaming, and an "new" Facebook Button
Where is the Successor of the HD2
Come on HTC, you have to be the carriers of technology, dont get lost in Software ...
Phones are still made out of Hardware!!!
Give the people a Dream - a Dream we want to wait for :
Oh, and this will be such an Dream:

The Galaxy S II has some fantastic hardware, but I decided because of the complaints people have about software updates etc that I would wait and see what HTC had on offer before making up my mind. Having seen it I have to wonder what exactly are they thinking? Sure they're well built phones, but why do they feel satisfied in pushing out fairly old hardware.

Of course. It may well be that they thought a more reasonably priced (if indeed they are reasonably priced) phone would be just what the market needs. It just seemed remarkably out of place for them to wax lyrical about phones that are remarkably similar to their current generation except with new software.
HTC should really make Sense downloadable through market as a launcher instead. I just hate it. It's ugly and doesn't really make a difference for me.
Regarding the new phones there is nothing really impressive. The new Tegra2 dual core phones that are coming out (LG and Motorola) will most likely blow any of those HTC phones away. I believe they also have integrated geforce graphics so nothing should really be an issue on those phones.
My Wildfire have been a disappointment so I wouldn't even consider a HTC phone again unless I was 100% certain I could make it good.
One devices than can beat the Desire HD?
I stopped paying attention to smartphones a long time ago.
But the HTC Flyer actually catches my attention as a useful Android tablet for once. No Honeycomb is a bummer (Android is already too fragmented!), but it does have an N-trig DuoSense digitizer and apps to use it with. More than I can say for a certain other US$800 Android tablet.
Maybe I won't have to keep looking specifically at Windows Tablet PCs for a viable pen and paper alternative.

yeah i really want my pyramid lol...said it on another thread and i will say it again...htc's releases have not been that great at least i didnt think so
The HTC Pyramid, a 4.3 inch device that will be powered by a 1.2GHz processor<not dualcore> has shown itself on the internet again. In addition to this, the device will have 768MB of RAM along with an 8MP rear and 1.3MP front facing camera on board. The rear of the device shows Google branding, but lacks the "with HTC Sense" that we are used to seeing on these devices, and the device is said to be running Android 3.0, Honeycomb. Now, we are unsure of the truth behind all these specs, but we sure do hope that HTC will confirm all of this for us next week at CTIA

Until HTC invents a larger battery it will not be able to offer dual-core.
Yes they will. Dual core phones use less power because they can turn off 1 core and use less power than any other phone with 1 single core. When the dual core does kick in it probably means the phone is on a 100% load or so, which means that any phone would use a lot of power. The difference is not as big as you would think.
There are rumors that this phone will have a dual core processor.
That article does not state that the pyramid is not dual core. It neither confirms nor denies the number of cores. There are other rumoured specs out there which suggest it will be a dual core snapdragon. Just google it.
Given the fact that competitors have released dual cores, htc will wish to follow suit. Not doing so will cost them market share.
If the other part of the article is true and it shall be another google nexus then that will be truly interesting. I wonder if they will also release a similar spec sense phone in the fashion of the nexus one and desire. If so it will be hard for me to look past the nexus pyramid. It will be dev heaven as google policy is to allow the user to easily unlock the bootloader. Plus if the hardware is largely identical, it will get sense ports.

There is 1 sign that tells us it might be the new nexus, and that is the fact that it's stating Google on the back. But Another thing that nexus phones don't have, is a HTC logo on the front. So the only sign telling us it's a google phone on the back is being invalidated by the front of the phone.
I have a feeling this will be the Nexus Two (or whatever) with HTC branding on the front. The Nexus S is known everywhere as the Samsung Nexus S, so it could be a logical extension of the manufacturers branding.
It seems to make sense that the next Nexus phone would have a qHD screen, dual core CPU and be a 4.3" device, after all this is where lots of phones are going and the Nexus line is meant to offer some sort of reference design.
After the Nexus S, which I am now selling so I can keep my Desire HD, I would welcome a Nexus phone from HTC again.
As for the OS, I wouldn't be surprised if there was an Android Honeycomb for phones version (which could be a 3.x or 2.4 or something else) and this device launches that version. I cant help but remember that the HTC Passion name was rumoured for months before the Nexus One came out, this device may not be out for months yet....
On the other hand, this could be all be fake. Or the Desire HDS or something...
HTC Pyramid is dual-core. But it falls behind Atrix and LG 2x in graphic and performance tests.
Link to tests:

Seems like the new Adreno 220 is weaker than Tegra
Can't make a judgement until it hits production. Mind you it could also be nvidia fermi all over again.

That new PowerVR SGX543MP2 is a BEAST!! Have you guys seen the benchmarks compared to the Tegra 2? It annihilates it.
As for the Pyramid. It does have a dual core. The recent benchmarks with the Adreno 220 are not accurate because release is still ways off and drivers are still maturing. Give it time. btw this phone looks absolutely stunning! Best looking device i've seen honestly.

I got a spreadsheet going of a list of Android smartphones coming out in October and beyond. Feel free to edit/change whatever fixes need to be made.
goo.gl/bMFTS
Nice list. Just a few adjustments.
1) As far as I can tell the HTC Vigor will have HD screen, not a qHD. Minor, but still...
2) The HTC Ruby actually does have a qHD screen, but the res of qHD is 960x540, not 1280x720 (which is HD resolution)
3) No Droid HD? Maybe put it on there, but specs are scarce.
I don't think you've made it publicly editable, unless I'm just a fool.
EDIT: Also, is it just me or does the HTC Runnymede 2 have great specs, except for the low res screen. For that sort of price (if the link is to be believed) I'd expect at least qHD, probably HD res.
Quick question does the Samsung note have a stronger or better GPU than a Galaxy S 2? And I know the Samsung exynos chips are known to be battery savers how good are they power wise as strength and overclocking?

It will most likely be the same ARM-Mali 400 GPU. Its a more than capable GPU. Anandtech dug a little deeper on it recently.
What makes the Galaxy S II seem to drastically outpace newer devices like the Droid 3, whose 1 GHz OMAP 4 SoC also features an A9 processor? The special sauce, as Brian will delve into further in his upcoming review of the international Galaxy S II, is Samsung's ability to leverage the Mali-400 to accelerate UI elements and even elements of the browsing experience, as well.

The only thing that worries me about the prime is the pentile display. The ones on the first galaxy s series were somewhat bearable for me but I hate the one on my atrix (luckily its a temporary phone), hopefully they make it a good display.

Super AMOLED Pentile? that doesn't make sense...isn't that two different types of screens, how could it be both?
I wish the Sammy Note was coming to Verizon, I like it a lot..
EDIT: No such thing as the Droid Prime, wish people would stop saying that. It's NEXUS PRIME...It's been said billions of times, Droid Prime was said once and now it's everywhere -.- Why the hell would Samsung make two devices called almost the same thing with the exact same specs on the same carrier? Does that make any sense at all? No one would be able to tell what they actually have...
EDIT2 : Just a thought, but I'm pretty sure that the SG2 LTE version that was rumored is actually the Nexus Prime..just a thought though. The article was somewhere on Android and Me or Android Central, can't remember. Also sure that it will have LTE, just wouldn't make sense if it didn't, unless they do the same thing they did with the Nexus S and release a 4G version later down the line...(which i doubt)
EDIT3: Engadget says that the Note is HSPA+, so it's for T-Mo or AT&T. Should be corrected on the chart for people that don't know..

I think they're going out of style since everything is about thinness now
Thanks for putting up the Doc, I personally can not wait for the Galaxy Note.
Hope it's not made from unicorn tears and actually gets released soon...

Exactly the same situation here. If Samsungs new device sucks then its definately gotta be the S. Just hoping that the Galaxy's screen isnt as big as the One X's one. It's just too much... :what:

Well, even though it has it critics, and I do go through periods of using AOSP (and prob will on the S once it's available and stable) I still think Sense is the best custom UI on Android. Simple really, SGS3 can't match that element
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
Supposedly its going to have a 1080p screen, to me this is a bad thing.
1) I bet it is bigger than the ONE S and I wasn't quite happy with the size of the ONE X
2) It takes more horse power to run it, so its processor and graphics may be higher but side by side performance will probably be similar due to it having to push more pixels about the place. Also.. 1080p.. on a phone... What's the F'in point??
First i'm 100% sure that Galaxy S III won't have 2gb of ram neither 1080p screen. Its a next generation and since theres obvious settlement betwen manufacturers you can expect same specs as One X. And i'm also pretty sure that it won't have SD card, every manufacturer stops using them, why should they use them, about removable battery i'm not sure, if new galaxy is gonna be thinner then i guess it will have non removable battery.
I think the S3 will have 4.7 screen, so its big, also display will be as good as X. About other specs - I suspect quad core processor, some good graphic component, rumors about 12mp camera.
But anyway, there are only rumors atm, and Im not fan of S2, so I will go for One S as soon as it avaible here

but on 3rd may we might get some new infos (... no rumours)
however a display bigger than 4,6" is much to big for my taste...
if thats going to happen, i probably will get myself a ONE S
If it takes T-mobile US as long as it did to get the Galaxy S 2....i'm not waiting.
But then again, i don't want to wait. Im tired of Samsung's plastic devices, ugly touch wiz, and international Galaxy S3 will be different from the US Galaxy S3, which will hinder dev support.
Im sure the one s will have great dev support like the sensation. Every one S around the world will be the exact same and will run the same roms.
The only thing i was hating about htc phones was the bad slcd screen, so happy theres amoled now, and i dont care if its pentile.

There is a rumor tht the one x is coming to Tmo with stock ics. I know the gs3 will be beast but I hate touchwiz and love sense. I had a mt4gs and now have a sg2 and touchwiz kills it. There is no stock ics that's working well, and no sense .: /. I want the One s or the One x one tmobile, but would get the gs3 if there is a stock ics rom

Samsung gps
I am ready to upgrade from my Vibrant. I like my Samsung but the GPS is crap. I'm not sure I would trust a Samsung gps. I keep waiting for the gps to run me over a cliff. Is any Samsung gps as good as HTC?
nothing compares to HTC GPS. I can get a lock in under 15 seconds. no tweaks.
i never lose the satellite. Its found me home many times
kinda yes, I really like GS2 and SAMOLED Plus is great. But we still don't know if GS3 will be SAMOLED HD or SAMOLED HD Plus. It's most likely be the same size as One X, packing same or better CPU, probably same or better quality camera, and most likely missing things like notification light and noise canceling mic.
Already got one s and prefer HTC build

Same boat as @tf442. I have a "first month out" Vibrant and GPS has been abysmal from the get-go. I have flashed at least a dozen ROMS (probably more)from Bionix, Trigger all the way to ICS 4.0.4 and they vary, but still no where near other manufacturers GPS. I will not give $$$ to Samsung since they went on the pine in acknowledging any issues with GPS. That, and quit with FROYO. Not good for a top-end phone at the time.
I am eligible for upgrade now, but I don't think I am going to. I might wait out until mid to end-year to upgrade. I am pretty satisfied with my G2 still. Everyone swears it's a great backup phone, but I like it as my main phone all the same.

Upcoming HTC Device [Oneˣ5] Sense 4.5 vid | 1080p | Quad-core S4 | 1.5GB RAM | 480ppi
We have seen a couple pictures of a upcoming HTC device that has a 5 in screen most likely at 480ppi(insane and our eyes cant tell, I know) with 1080p resolution. It has the possible name of the Oneˣ5. I know the photos are bad quality especially the 2nd(earlier photo leak). This phone is also know as HTC6435. Let me know what you guys think!
GSM Arena - Added Specs
The DIx is said to feature a Qualcomm S4 Pro SoC with four Krait cores.
The device is rumored to feature a second notification LED for missed events on the back, near the camera.
Additional Information
It's also worth mentioning that the HTC DIx's 480ppi is odd considering that a 5" panel with a 1920 x 1080 pixels results in a pixel density of just 440ppi. To deliver the 480ppi that the source of the rumor mentions, the HTC DIx would have to either have resolution higher than 1080p or a screen around 4.6" in diagonal. Also the DIx shouldn't be mistaken with the HTC One X+, which runs on a 720p display and a quad-core Tegra 3 processor, not S4 Pro.
Rumored Specs:
Android 4.1.1
Sense 4.5
1080p Screen at 480ppi
Quad-core Snapdragon S4 (Pro)
1.5 GB RAM
16 GB Internal Storage
Non-Removeable Battery
External SD - Unknown at this time
Qualcomm's new Adreno 320 GPU Possibly: Source
One X running Sense 4.5 and Jellybean 4.1.1

Looks sexy, I'm guessing this will come out next year in Q1. They better put a powerful battery.
...and an SD slot if it's only sporting 16GB. Oh, and ummmm... make it rootable please?

Thats the screenshot used from the One X (our phone) press shots. Seems like either the people who leaked it put it on there for lack of anything else, or HTC is re-using screen shots.

Good thing I only paid $100 for my One X. And since it's a fairly new phone it better last my contract.
If this new phone is real it is 3g? Don't care - would rather have 4G LTE instead of a slightly faster phone.
The One X screen compares nicely to Retina display (IMO)
Hopefully they make this phone more developer friendly. They failed hard on our HOXL. Good thing our devs are geniuses. Looks sharp though color combo looks nice and I like the square look. Probably won't get it immediately though, I'm pretty satisfied with how my phone is now.

It will likely have LTE since it is an S4 processor, that information was not released yet(as to radios).

I know, I know don't shoot the messenger I just compiled the article from source(s).
Some sources are saying this is not the One X successor, but in the Verizon Droid Incredible line, and calling it the "Droid Incredible X" (DIx). The signature Verizon red detailing does jive with that rumor/theory:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_7-57514471-251/5-inch-htc-phablet-tipped-to-be-droid-incredible-x/
Also, Verizon has previously stated that they will not be picking up any of the "One" line. But they have been a decent supporter of HTC Android devices almost from the start. Therefore, I always figured they would just have their own variant similar to the One X in specs, but just different branding. This would be along those lines, but an even bigger screen than the One X!

If its a "real" leak, than its possible the person was taking a picture of the device when they weren't supposed to be. Therefore rushing it, and not getting a chance to focus properly or make multiple attempts. Also, indoors with less than ideal lighting, they will not want to use a flash and draw attention to themselves, so that increases the blur potential.
Or if its an "intentional" leak by HTC, then they might be leaking blurry pics on purpose to add to the mysterious factor, or make it seem like a more authentic leak.
