I've had the one x for 3 months... And I haven't even rooted or anything ( unfortunately I'm on 2.20 ow and can't) but even so... I love this phone so much. I've been a diehard Android fan since the beginning (nexus one) and have always been in love... I have had the top of line phones since then, and until now, there's always been something missing.
Now, it performs exactly how I want to. Super fast, snappy, and never a hiccup. Not to mention I ALWAYS get through the day with charge and some left to spare. It phenomenal and the screen is gorgeous! I honestly can't think of a device that is more perfect! (Except maybe if I had jelly bean)
I don't even know the purpose of this thread I've created! Other than I want to rant about how awesome this phone is. Period. I'm done

All trolls..
My coworker and I switched phones for two days. He got my one xl and I got his s3. After using the s3 I didn't see anything that blew my mind. The screen was really disappointing after using the one x and it didn't seem any faster. Battery life was ok with the stock battery but didn't seem any better than the one x. Maybe it was just bad observation, but I think the one x actually got better battery life, at least using it for what I was. More of a portable computer than a phone. I text more than I call.
The one thing that drove me crazy was that physical home button. I don't know why they did that. Soft keys or even onscreen keys work such better in my opinion.
Funny thing was that after we switched phones back, he turned his screen on and said, "I am going to miss that screen. It's amazing."
All I all they are pretty close to each other, but if you spend a lot of time staring at the screen of your phone like I do then the one x is the better phone for you.

I'm working in a Tele2 shop in my home town (mobile provider) and I've tested both phones. Both are high end phons an both have pros and cons. It's just a mater of opinion, and personal taste. I have the one and I'm really into it,feels better in my hand, better screen in my opinion and does not give the feel of plastic in my hand. So every one should buy what is good for them regardles of what other peopla say.

I still haven't had time to play with a Note yet, but its intriguing to say the least. It definitely looks a bit too large to use as an everyday phone but I'll give it a shot at least
You probably will be happier with the s3, it will be the next Gen phone.
Get the note if you need a tablet phone or high Res screen for more icons on the app drawer or something. I'm gonna wait for the s3 just because of the flagship and the proper balance of features and size and weight

My uncle has the international version so I've had the opportunity to work on this device here and there. Using it daily really doesn't wind up feeling a ton bigger than the t989, only problems I've experienced are certain apps can't figure out if it's a tablet or a phone, so there's a fair amount of compatibility issues, but it's very slick.
But, and a big but, that phone is a Gen behind the s3

Gnex camera is bad apparently.
Both phones are powerful, very very powerful. If you're comfortable rooting it honestly doesn't make much of a difference and I'd go with the Skyrocket since out of three things you mention picture is one of them and I've heard complaints about Gnex camera.
Without the LTE its a bit disappointing though. In all honesty you're choosing between two high end android devices, you'll be perfectly satisfied with either. Given the fact you're on XDA you must be some what of a techie, so maybe GNex is your best bet. Try out the camera first though
Yep there is a white nexus.. its not on Google's site idk y. But tried camera and love it so far thinks its better then skyrocket to be honest I couldn't get good pics with SR

Yeah. It has a glossy finish which is why I prefer the titanium one.
Really depends on what your priority is. If you're in an LTE market, Skyrocket seems to be a better choice. As a SR owner I'm considering selling and moving to a Nexus. If you need your phone unlocked than consider a plus for Nexus since you'll save $20 there. As others have mentioned look into the camera, I however use mine once a month if that.
I guess biggest part is how much Dev support you need. Nexus will keep you flashing everyday of you so choose. SR options are a bit limited but those who have worked on it have done a fantastic job.

what!? ive been thinking about switching to Nexus since yesterday. Holy Crapple Crap!
How is it skyrockets screen is bigger? its 4.5 vs 4.65 Nexus. And nexus has 720p screen when skys is only 480p. LTe isnt important too me.. yes its super fast internet but i never found it useful. I mean if i had unlimited plan then Lte sure is nice but i have 300mb data and i find it enough for emails a couple pics and web. I used to have unlimited with ipoop 3G but my monthly usage was around 250mbs.
Does anybody knows if nexus front facing camera has auto focus?

Yeah, ask for the firmware number. Anything but 2.20 is rootable. 2.20 is not currently rootable.
Development is not as active as the most popular/active devices, but still plenty of awesome ROMs both AOSP and Sense based, by some really great devs. Just check out the Dev forum.
I got mine for 600$ before as well, im not biased or anything but you can never go wrong with this device.
Yes, 220 is a steal dog!!!!!!! U would b dumb if u didnt jump all over that! If u dont want it, give me the info, n ill buy it! Lol! Development 4 this phone is just fine. Theres plenty of roms to choose from, aosp, or sense. I personally am running viper rom 1.2.4 and i couldnt b happier! Ok maybe i would b if jellybean were out!! But the ics viper rom is sick!

The only thing that bothers me about this ROM is the screen tearing. That's it. I know its such a small thing to care about but it bugs the crap out of me. Lol.
I tried a kernel that is supposed to help with HW Overlays disabled.. And while this fixed the tearing, I now experience freezing while on calls. Its random when it does it. But it does it enough to warrant switching back to the stock kernel. Irritating to the highest degree.
Can't wait til h8 gets everything sorted out!

I also cannot stand the screen tearing, and disabling hardware overlays was making my phone hot. Sticking with viper until the new kernel is ready, but I can't wait. I love AOSP way more than sense-based roms. I like it to match my Nexus 7.

Oh. I have a Speck case and the power & volume buttons are UBER stiff.
I stopped using a case... I'm surprised I haven't cracked it but maybe that speaks to it's outstanding build quality. I might have dropped it maybe 5 times without a case? No scuffs or sign of damage at all. Just scratches on the glass but nothing major. It's also insured so you know... whatever.
But I'm a fan of the power button. I didn't think I would be but it's held up pretty well and isn't stiff or too worn out over the course of 11 months.
