Hi I purchased the HTC sensation last September PAYG and am now using it as my main device. It replaced my Nexus S which was having charging phones. Which I have rectified.
Now my contract is in its grace period (I can upgrade to another phone and restart my contract) Do you think the HTC one X is worth it? OR a galaxy nexus? What do you lot think?

With a One x ( also S ) i think you will notice the difference
Galaxy nexus? Apart 1gb super amoled and vanilla android don't worth the change.. I prefer sensation to gnexus
Galaxy Nexus wipes the floor with the Sensation - it's no contest (I have both)
However, it's not worth getting the Nexus with the One X just around the corner. I'd wait and see what comes out (Galaxy S III??)
ONE X or GS3! Nexus is not worth it!
I Really want to get a new HTC phone so i could get rid of my blackberry. I used to have a touchpro 2 and loved it!
so ive been researching both the rezound and one X but i can't come to a conclusion of which one to get... just looking for some opinions.
Thanks
(You are on the One X forum, people will ALWAYS say that you should buy the One X)
Anyway, the Rezound is a phone from last year (not even the best one). The HTC is currently the best phone on the market equipped with enouf hardware to last the next 1-2 years without a problem!
I'd go for the One X unless money is really the issue, then go for the Rezound. But if not : One X all the way.
I've also posted this on the rezound found and there are mixed reviews(some say one x and other say rezound) so it doesn't really matter where i post
Sorry but such threads belong in the General General forum.
Cheers
i got my htc one x today and what a phone you wouldnt be disapointed if you got one
How can you even compare the two. One works for cdma, one doesnt..
Depends on your carrier, If verizon, rezound, if not A one X variant. Rezound could still hold its own today and probably will for a while. But that one X is sexyy
Im on my 1st Android a Sensation XE coming from iPhones and have to say loving it.
I'm now thinking even though only had my XE for 6 months, on the One X. Worried a little though on the battery life and non replaceable, I am a heavy user.
Also now the S3 is announced and is nigh on the same physical size and wondering on people who have a One X what would they do if now had choice?
Cheers

I love my One X. The S3 is going to be an awesome phone too. If you like HTC (and it looks like you do) you can't go wrong with grabbing a One X. Although, if I knew what I know now about multiple nexus devices, I might have waited to grab one of those. Really, if you're going for a high end android phone from 2012 I don't know that you really can go wrong.

search research read and make your own mind up. that is how you going to know if the phone is for you. you might think i am joking but i am being serious..and not being horrible it is true..search and you will find loads of threads asking the same question as you what phone is the best. google is your friend..good luck and hope you all the best whatever you decide....but if you like Nexus phones then wait till october when the new one gets released
All depends on whether you like sense or touchwiz. Easiest way to find out is to go to retail shop and try before you buy.

the very best way is to buy both and sell the one that you dnt like if you have the money, of course
and the best way is to use google and research like the guy above says, because you ask this question in the OneX threads and everybody who have a OneX loves it ... and i love it too ... some issues are still there to be honest, but with the next OTA it will all be perfect.
I personally feel that HTC one X has a more beautiful design than S3. S3 is not ugly but to me is definitely not a beauty. However, there are some crucial things that S3 has but HTC one X doesn't have which is removable battery and a SD card slot.
Hence my advice to you is know what your preferences is whether is a hardware design or having a removable battery. Then make your decision
Batterywise, The One X, with older 1.28 firmware is better than my old Sensation was even when using the XE battery.
Thanks for replies.
I can't say I prefer HTC sense over touchwiz as never used touchwiz, I've tried it for 2mins in a shop once.
I think I prefer the look of the One X, but the removable battery tempting, do you think the One X will get any of the software features of S3? eg the smart screen stay on thing etc?
The One X I would probably buy if its a bit cheaper which it is at mo,.probably about £350, whereas S3 is going to be £500 or £34/month.....
If you must upgrade, I'd go for the SGS3. But if you can wait, I would. The Sensation XE can pretty much do anything the other two can, albeit a little slower. But who cares?

Being an HTC customer for years, I'm debating if I should jump ship to a Samsung product, the SG3. Should I and why? Or is Tmobile getting another HTC device in the near future worth waiting for?

I am planing to join samsung club too. I have been using HTC over a year now. I am just thinking its time to change. As for as more into why Samsung s3 newest phone with lot of Kool thinking like just looking at the contact will dial number or screen will not dim . Better processor and super amolded screens are few.
Question of if HTC coming up with something new maybe yes because these companies are coming out with new phones every single month

not me, never been a fan of Samsung phones... personally, I dont like the look of the phone. Im waiting for my next upgrade to come around before I start looking for a new phone, around October. the Sensation is def more than enough until then
i would surely choose HTC One X than SGS3

**** SGs3 if you whant allways the better feel of aosp, buy a galaxy nexus or any new upcoming galaxy phone from google,
btw i prefer the HTC one X
I was a sony fan then went to samsung....never going back! Looked at HTC's, rooting is alot more work than samsung and samsung have alot more custom ROMS available but the speeds etc of the standard firmware was perfect, i just like messing with things, constantly playing about with the S2 my S3 is for work purposes but tempted to become a toy aswell

Honestly? I'd go GS3 if I was gonna upgrade right now. The One S is 'eh' at best and since it's a "high end HTC device", we probably won't see another one for a while. I contemplated upgrading to it within the week but they said I'd lose my 10 GB grandfathered data plan - which I absolutely refuse to do.
Funny thing too, they offered me a One S for $350 + Two year extension. I asked them if they realized that it's two hundred to two fifty on Craigslist in my area. They had nothing to say to that.
I absolutely love the SGS3, but wouldn't get it right now for T-Mobile for three reasons.
First, the T-Mo version costs more than other carriers SGS3s. That just rubs me the wrong way.
Second, we get the Qualcomm S4 version here. Dual core? Seriously?? I think that's lame considering EU gets the Exynos quad core version.
And last, and most annoying, the T-Mo SGS3 won't be compatible with the upcoming LTE because of the spectrum T-Mo is planning to use. Boo!
TL;DR I'd just wait. Sensation isn't top of the line anymore, but it's still pretty decent until some real upgrades find their way stateside.
Well i thought google said they will release at least 5 nexus devices in november, one for each different manufacturer. Why not get the next htc nexus then?

What's bad with dual core? The S4 keeps up with the Tegre3 and even beats it in some benchmarks. Does Android even benefit from quad core yet? I don't believe it really does. Hell, I have eight cores in my notebook and Windows hardly uses four of em.
If you want a good phone with good performance and best AOSP experience (speed, battery life, etc) wait for upcoming nexus.
I can live with sensation until google released new nexus phone.
But if you want a beautiful software and functionality go to HTC.
I dont like samsung experience but i should admit their hardware still the best (not its build quality tho).

I was considering to get the S3 but went to T-Mobile store and I was underwhelmed. Mainly because of the screen. And it didn't give me that wow feeling.
Anyways, I will wait. Sensation is pretty awesome at the moment.

Nothing bad with it really. Like I said, our Sensations are more than capable right now with dual core. It's just that if I'm going to break out the wallet and potentially renew my contract, it better be for a serious upgrade. An update from s3 to s4 just doesn't blow me away.
Remember when our Sensations came out and GB wasn't ready for dual core? Well now we have ICS and all is good. Same concept. I'd really hate to be on a dual core SGS3 and then the next version of Android comes out supporting quad core.
Silly to upgrade now. The GS3 is certainly "better" than the Sensation, but it's not enough of an improvement imo to justify the upgrade. I side with the people who say you should upgrade once new phones absolutely blow yours out of the water, not when they are merely a bit better. S4 dual core is pretty nice, and it beats the Sensations lackluster S3, but I'd rather wait for S4 quad core + Adreno 320 (a truly next gen gpu rather than Adreno 225, which is a slightly modified version of our gpu) or A15 exynos + Mali t-604 phones to hit, because they will undoubtedly roundhouse kick our sensations.

Good point. I, however, would like to mention that I never meant that I would get a GSIII right now, cause I'd have one if I did. All I meant was that if OP was getting a phone upgrade right now, GSIII over any HTC offering [T-Mobile's One S] is the way to go.
Hello Guys,
Is it better to purchase HTC one X over the sensation ?

i assume yes
you can check in gsmarena site for details of its device
Yes.I checked it on gsmarena site.Seams to be looks good but it has battery life problem so lets se if other peoples replies on this thread.
I would go for the one x without thinking twice... Better build quality, better display, more ram...
NO MORE HTC SENSE DEVELOPMET.......YOU DONT SEE SENSE 6 ON HTC ONE X.....STUCK ON 4.2.2 SENSE 5
hey guys,
I just checked it on market.There's one guy has One X and it was running sense 5.It seams to be its UI,touch,using is same as our Sensation except it is powered by quad-core nvidia processor,light weight and a big clear screen.
my suggestion is not upgrade to hox , better wait some time and get better phone
I think specs wise one x is definitely better than sensation. However one x and sensation are, frankly speaking, very old phone. There might be no more updates for these phones soon from our devs. So I think you should get newer phones.

Newer phones are quiet expensive for me.Looking for samsung galaxy s3 but its much expensive than HOX and there is also a upgraded version of one X is HOX+,it looks awesome.Looking for that phone too!
