Hi I'm going to get either the HTC one X( the us version ) or the galaxy s 3( us version) they both have snapdragon s4 and a dual core but the galaxy s3 has 2 gigs of ram so I'm wondering how is that going to affect the performance especially gaming wize because I'm a HUGE gamer

one x wins by default because the s3 looks like a space ship, awkward long screen, and PHYSICAL HOME BUTTON :laugh:
Galaxy s3 win by a landslide. With 2gig of rams and external memory expendable up 84gig.

Yeah personally I don't mind the physical button and I actually like the way the s3 looks, and honestly HTC one XL screen size is 4.7 the s3 screen size is 4.8 I care more about performance

Yeah that's why I'm leaning towards the s3, the HTC one XL doesn't have expandable storage 16gb isn't enough for me and I'm not willing to pay extra for the 32gb version

To see if anybody was going to try and convince me and tell that there is no difference in performance but as no one is saying that its safe to say that the gs3 is better than the HTC one xl
Sent from my LG-E739 using XDA Premium App
It's tough to say which is better but as a One X user I can say for sure One X has a better screen. The Super LCD 2 screen on One X is actually an IPS one, just that IPS is a patented trademark. It's full RGB pixel arrangement, unlike the pentile on SGS3 which you can see fuzziness even at about 20cm despite the HD screen.
Also One X is very camera centric. Trust me it takes better photos than S3. Aperture, sensor and software implemention is to it's advantage.
Design wise I feel One X wins by a HUGE margin too, SGS3 is fugly compared to this beauty.
However to be fair, SGS3 wins in this two aspects.
One is battery life, but both phones require a daily charge anyway.
Two is the memory, as in flash storage. But since I'm using the 32GB version it doesn't affect me.
The 2GB RAM doesn't make much of a diff. Android is more than capable enough to run on 1GB. Has the international One X or SGS3 struggled with 1GB RAM?

They are both amazing. Deciding factor is if you need more than 16gb storage and/or a replaceable battery. If yes, sgs3, if no, hox. It's as simple as that.

If you read the first post...
Any ways for a android device 2gb of ram isn't really needed. Android OS implements ram much differently that many other devices. 512mbs would probably be enough. Go with the HTC One X. It has much better screen, design and the battery gets better after a few power cycles. The only downfall over the SIII is removable storage but if your like me I keep most of my files on a cloud service.

If camera is the hox main advantage then the s3 camera must be atrocious because the hox camera is plain awful. Color balance is way off kilter, and turning down saturation a bit helps but does not fix the problem and you might as well not bother with custom WB (daylight, shade, cloudy) because they all look the same and wrong to boot. I Basically the only hope for half decent pics on the hox is AWB with saturation at -1

From a galaxy better than yours.
The design does have its downsides, though. There will no longer be user-replaceable batteries, nor any slot for micro SD expansion. Due to space constraints, these phones will also only be able to use Micro SIM cards.

htc last best release was probably the mt4g.
I have practically played with every other t-mobile released htc phones and I have to say they're all disappointing besides the amaze's camera.
So I would wait for more feedbacks and wait for a htc phone that stands out more than its detailed specs.

The htc One x won't be having the quad core processor due to the fact that it doesn't support LTE. They will be getting an one x but with dual core.
Happily waiting for the SG3. so no
HTC one s has a better processor snapdragon s4 crushes tegra3. Stay away from tegra products. But the lack of expandable storage. Also non removable battery kills that phone cloud storage doesn't make up for expandable storage. Especially if it isn't permanent storage.

is a beautiful phone, but the problem, as on the iphone, there is the possibility to easily change the battery or to use external memory or other devices, a bit limited, but a good phone!
Im not gonna lie. The One X looks nice. They actually made it look good for once. Now, when it comes to waste of money, No. I'll be patiently waiting for the Galaxy S III. Its quad core, 1080p resolution. Samsung is just better anyways.
Maybe HTC one XE?
I'm getting the international version of the One X (one with Tegra 3). I've already pre ordered it from Expansys.... I'm not on AT&T and I could give a crap about their limited LTE. The One S isn't worth it in my opinion and I have T-Mobile...

Barring that, can anyone give me a give to stick with Samsung? I have liked my SG I but I am able to upgrade now and want either the II or the HTC. The HTC is VERY, VERY tempting, but I worry that since it is new there may be issues. I am also worried about the fact that the battery is not removable. What do you do if (and when) the phone freezes?
So thoughts.... HTC or Galaxy S II?

If you're on T-Mobile get the One S. I had the international Galaxy SII two days ago and now I have the One S. I love the One S so far and have found nothing wrong with it. The screen, though similar, looks much better on the One S. It feels faster as well, even if through benchmarks it might not be.
I was on Tmo-sgs2 before One S and you can't even compare the two. One S better screen. Better processor. Better build quality. So satisfied I think I'm going to go rub it on my naughty spots....sorry TMI.

Just came from a GSII and holding a One S versus holding the plasticky cheap-feeling Samsung is like night and day IMHO.
But if you have a huge library of music and don't feel comfortable with a built-in battery, the GSII is still a decent choice.

I jumped from the SGS2 to the One S and the difference is night and day. But consideration has to be made that I was also on a SGS before the 2 and the TW made it feel like I just went to a bigger version of the SGS. Or more bloated version. So I think the jump to better made phone and to Sense was easier. The speed and fluidity of the One S is also so much faster. The ability to use the phone one handed is nice too. Resolution is nicer and screen seems a lot brighter...even putting them on the same brightness and doing a side by side comparison. Battery is also great on the One S. I'm not drinking the Koolaid or anything but really I am impressed with this device. IMHO One S wins hands down. But like I said my opinion.

I wouldn't make any decisions until Thursday has passed tbh.. See what Samsung's next phone is saying. If it is just a quad core variant of the Nexus & SGSII with a new shell then the One S has got to be the winner.

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.

Well, you say that the SGS3 will soon be outdated but in all honesty do you really care about the newer hardware? The only real changes which will be made soon are 1080p screens and better processors. You will never see the difference between 1080p and 720p screens unless you're specifically comparing them side by side to see purely the sharpness of the screen, and I have yet to find an app that I regularly use that even the SGS2 can't handle with ease, so I doubt you'll find one for the SGS3. It takes heavy games in its stride too, since many devs optimise their apps for the SGS3's chipset (in a similar way that you see Tegra3 optimised games).
Having said this, the SGS3 also has a lot that other phones don't:
-There are various storage options and more importantly expandable storage
-Being so popular means that it has a huge variety of accessories (almost iPhone-like in that respect)
-It has a removable battery which means that you can fit an extended battery if you wish
-It has a menu button so you don't get the three dots softkey like you do on HTCs
-TouchWiz (whilst ugly) has some amazing features
-It still has one of the best smartphone cameras currently available
-The development community is huge
-It has a variety of colour options
Samsung galaxy s3.
I think I'm leaning towards the s3 or sucking it up and waiting for the s4 the storage for the dna is a huge deal breaker

I have never liked the screens on the galaxy phones. Look close in person and compare. Regardless of all other factors, the devs will make a speedy Rom with that hardware, and the build quality will be great on both.
The screen will be what you will look at more than anything else. Make sure you won't regret it. Pentile is irritating, even at hi res IMHO.
Black blacks and impressive contrast ratios are good, but seeing gaps between my pixels just ticks me off. That's just me.

We can't make the decision for you, only persuade you.. But the choice is yours, I don't like Samsung and I don't really like HTC. But I really hate contracts. I'd personally get a nexus. But that's me

I was thinking as well of getting a Samsung phone. But I love HTC too much to do that. It's either HTC or iPhone for me

Well then please make it HTC lol.
Apple is good at choosing hardware and writing software that is a bit behind the times, and consequently everything works and is smooth all the time.
That being said, I find iOS totally boring. My work bought me an iPad mini, which is cool, but I just can't get interested.

Up for an upgrade as well. Was about to pull the trigger on a One when the x phone was announced. Now not sure if I should wait a bit longer for some extra details.

HTC is superior to S4.. Google the lag problems the galaxy has
Nexus 5 for me... Can't deal with these contracts anymore

you can buy the vanilla htc one from the play store without contracts, also htc sells an unlocked edition on his site. The nexus are way cheaper, though.
You better tell us which phone you end up choosing..... I'm actually waiting to see which one you'll get.

HTC makes phones will small batteries, can't get my one x to last me a day at work. 1700mah battery, really HTC? At least Samsung gives you replaceable batteries. My next phone is going to be a Samsung galaxy note 3.

Me too. The rumored specs for the Note 3 are absolutely insane.

Agreed. It'll be my next phone most likely unless the the phablet version of the HTC one actually does happen

I would wait on the X phone and Nexus 5. IOS is good if you want your money's worth. My iPad 2 is still running silky smooth and my wife's iPhone 5 resells for $380! That's insane!
I have been a Samsung guy for the past couple of years and still am for the most part (waiting for the note 3) but to me the HTC one is much better than the galaxy s4. Two weeks ago I had my first HTC one, loved it but I had to get the S4 so i sold the One and got the s4. It's a good phone but it stutters A LOT, you cannot use the phone for a full minute without the phone stuttering and I'm not exaggerating. Also even though I always liked touchwiz, it's getting really old and needs an ui revamp badly. At the end of the day it's a matter of preference but to me the HTC one is a much more polish device. The s4 features are cool for the first 30 minutes but after a little while they just get in the way and become more annoying than anything. (Except multi window and air view ). The one display is beyond amazing (the one x display is the best 720p display and this puts it to shame), the speakers are incredible and I find myself liking blinkfeed a lot. Less features but way more useful. To each his own

As far as I'm concerned Samsung is in my ****list. How they can release such poor build quality at such high prices is beyond me. HTC time and time again is a perfect combination of power, features and build quality. And ew ew ew touchwiz. Also, would much rather have a phone and a tablet then a cross between the two. Having a smart phone you can't operate with one hand seems a bit useless to me but that's just my two cents. Also +1 on the nexus line of phones if for no other reason than having the latest software asap.
