Should I get this or the SGSIII? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

The SGS people are being useless and not replying to my thread with a few questions about the device... but the One X seems to have all better hardware (except possibly the LCD screen, which you could argue about) for the same price.
What do you all think? I kinda want the one X just for the quad core.

talking about snobs

if you need a forum full of strangers to make a decision for you, then you're the one with the problem
Just saying.

If you're on ATT, the One X is still dual core.
That being said, I have had both. The One X is a great phone, amazing build quality. The SGSIII is a better phone with more features, but not quite as good of build quality. I use the s3.

Tegra3 is suck if you buy international version. Qualcomm S4 version for NA and Aus is better than this ****. You can google the reasons why and compare of 2 SOC.
S3 for the performance
1X for quality build
Ps: pentile amoled of s3 is crappy(real solution is less 30%), lcd2 is good for you if using outside, real color.

There's already a 31 page long thread comparing the 2 phones in General (on the first page if viewing on your computer). We don't need another thread discussing the same, that is all he is saying. Mods usually lock redundant threads, so I'm surprised they haven't locked this one already.

I think also people searching from Google will be able to find xda that way well get an even bigger community as people join and contribute, more interest in the phone will ultimately be better for development, roms etc...any way let's see

OOOHHHHH Yes and then create S4,5, and 6 forums cause people will want to talk about those rumors as well. Why should we use the s2 general or the off topic sections for important rumors. After all this is xda-gossipers.com is it not? we need MOAR RUMERZ!!!!!!1 I hear the s8 will have a mind control and invisibility ray lolz. The one thing this site needs is more people coming in going "when release date 4 dis?" and "Why u no cre8 awsum romz for mi fonez all these r broken an suxxorz LOLZ!!!!11" And of course the all important essential "which shuld i buy? iphone 16s or evo 5ds?'

The rumors I've seen were clocked at 1.8 GHz. That could be easily overclocked to higher I would guess. I highly doubt they'll disappoint with regard to specs. GSII was top of its class with specs.

Same, I'm expecting a lot. I think they will deliver, Samsung has done pretty well in the past few years. The GSII was future proofed about as good as you could ask for. It was the best of the best after many many months after the initial release. I have faith.

Returned iphone 4s...now between htc 1s and galaxy s2? cant decide.

Ok so i returned the iphone 4s that i bought for my girl cause you guys brought it to my attention that i will not get 4g on simple mobile. Now we are at a stand still in deciding between the galaxy s2 and the htc 1s. What do you guys think the better phone is? These will be tmobile phones running on simple mobile by the way. Thanks.
Or do you think we should get the galaxy s3?
I have the lg g2x right now which is rooted/unlocked/running hellfire 2.2.

Yep. I agree that was probably uncalled for. Sorry to thekid1. A better answer may be to wait until the new Samsung is released and for the old model to drop in price. Thekid1 has asked about things before that are easy to research.
I would never ask an internet forum how I should spend my hard earned money, but that is me. I wish all my clients would ask me to how to spend their money.
Like someone said before if you want to get updates get a Nexus and don't waste your money on any other android phone. I'm done with non Nexus devices I'm tired of the lack of suppose all the manufactures have for phones. You won't get much suppose from Samsung been there with the Vibrant they will release a very slightly revised S3 3 months later and forget you exist. No thanks.

Just get the One S. It is insanely fast and is built really well. I love it for a couple key reasons:
1. It has the new snapdragon S4 which is based off the newer smaller A15 architecture rather than the A9 which is in the Gs3 and almost all other phones right now. The A15 is more powerful and uses less energy.
2. It has a smaller 4.2" screen which in my opinion is the biggest a screen should be.
3. Build quality is really good and feels good in my hand.
That is my grain of salt for consideration.

Correct me if in wrong but from what HTC states is that the one x is a quad core phone. But if you go into settings/about/hardware settings it states that the processor is dual core. Any input of this?

This question is just a hair better than coming in to ask who manufactures this phone. Please try a 1 second search on google before asking such a simple question.

Can I push you down the stairs, OP?
The international edition is a quad core phone (different forum for that). The North American variant is the HTC One XL, which uses a dual core processor that has LTE built into its SoC.

The One X (XL) has two incarnations. The AT&T version, which has a dual-core CPU, and the international XL variant, which has a 4+1 Quad-Core, with the +1 (5th core) dedicated to apps. AT&T had to use a dual-core CPU, because the current quad-core technology is not LTE compatible ATM.
The AT&T version does nit lack performance in the least, and is plenty fast. I managed to score 4,958 on Quadrant, which is faster than every previous phone I've owned, and I've had the SGSII, Amaze, Vivid, Galaxy Note, etc. The One X is the best phone I've owned so far. HTC spared no expense building this device. They used top notch hardware throughout, including the Super IPS LCD2 Display, which is absolutely gorgeous.
Good god, I sound like a fanboi. :banghead:

Which is better iPhone 4s or Samsung Galaxy SIII

Guys,
Please help me. I am not able to decide which one to buy. Can you people please advice so that I can zero on one of them !!!!
It is a simple choice of simplicity or features.
Sent from my U8150 using XDA
To be fair mate, even if the iPhone was better than the S3 in every way, the majority on here would still say the S3 because Android kicks ass :
Personally though, I would pick the S3 because it's more powerful, more customizable and generally a better phone.
And that's not because I'm an Android fanboy, cause I'm not, it's simply because S3 performs much better. But as Allanitomwesh said, it's a choice of simplicity or features.

If you have the option of either I just don't see the point in the 4S. No phone is future proof but the SIII will give you a lot longer useable life than the 4S at this point.

As a user of both phones... ill say i prefer the S3... same reeason everyone is saying....
S3 is faster, very customisable lot of useless thing to do with... useless but im sure you will want to do...
Iphone is simpler. Does what iit is supous to do..
Easy answer... Android rules and is the best so pick the s3. Iphone is for follower
LG Faberon made by meinem GNote aus Berlin TTTT
A big one is price. The S3 is much newer and fuller featured than the 4S, but the 4S still costs almost as much as it did on release. So if you have to buy now the S3 is more bang for your buck (outright at least).
Still it'll be interesting to see what the ip5 is like. I'm locked into the android ecosystem enough that it'll take a lot to convert me, but it will no doubt be a great phone.
Samsung is going to unveil a new device in their Galaxy flagship - probably a 5.5 incher Note II. I can't wait for iPhone 5 but now I am confused between GS III and the to be released device. It's obvious, I think, considering we don't have to buy a phone at its outright price here in India. Buying such a high end phone is a sort of one time luxury for me. Wish it was the same as US where people switch over their older models for new one as soon as it is out in the market. So, wait for August 15th then or quickly jump on the bandwagon by buying the SIII ?
S3 is galaxies better than any of Apple's i****
If you only use it for texting maybe iprone. But why would anyone get a tiny screen? Video photos browsing all much better on s2 or s3. Beauty? Android. BUT im waiting to get s3 till 4g lte is available in my area.

I see no point asking here, instead, just consider yourself lol...if u have enough money, then just go to those OneS or GLXS2 forum to see which has the most roms and kernels and stuffs so that u won't have to wait or ask for ETA or discuss bout aries and trolling blah blah lmfao...

I've stopped trolling and I don't think the gs4g phone is worth it anymore. I'm happy that devs are still working on it but I think I need to move on instead of begging for a new update. I've almost forgotten there are other options out there.
I don't know if it's still like this but my first android phone was a mytouch 3g slide. HTC made it and that phone was the biggest pain in the butt to get rooted due to the locked boot loader. I got the s2 and have been very happy with it.

S3 or get out of contract while you have the chance and get a gnex+$30 a month plan.

The HTC one s has been majorly upgraded it runs ics and sense 4 ( sense 4 is infinitely better than touchwiz if for no other reason the fact that touchwiz5 can be flashed as a zip onto the one s) with no worries to the one s out of the box so you get best of both worlds) has an awesome 4.3 in 900 by 560 screen res but easily a one handed device due to the thin design. Has an amazing camera a great dual core 1.5 MHz thingy ma bob (not the most tech specific term) and i could definately see the smoothness was comparable to the one x's and the gs3 but it has no expandable memory or access to battery. Oh and a HUUUUGGGE plus is that the one s has an alpha cm10 build already. So pretty much the s one is better than the s2 in every thing except for storage, price, and nfc. Seems like a no brainer right! Its just that with a 2 yr contract the one s is $150 vs the gs2's wapping 0 dollars. I could wait for the price to drop but it was at 50$ back in April when I couldn't upgrade so I doubt the price will drop that much. I feel like this post may have answered by own question lol.

For me the deciding factor would be the development community. Which one is strong and friendly.
SGS III by far.
The best phone humanity has today, with an external micro SD card slot, unique Sammy features and beasty specs.
I would get the galaxy s 2 (or 3 but you didn't mention it). HTC one s has a **** ton of hardware issues that even HTC has admitted

agreed but unfortunately the s3 isn't an option because it costs more than double my budget

I've seen both communities and because they're both popular their community is thriving. Like I said both have jb builds that are improving each day. J doubt either phone will be left behind

I'd go for HTC One S for the looks.
I'd go for [email protected]!ing fake phones from China so that i can have a Galaxy S2 look alike phone running sense, an most unstable phone tgat can be die whenever it like and a cheap phone (just 50 usd or so) that dont have to be unlocked for carriers lmfao

You should get HTC since apparently you have such a hard on for sense

I never said sense is bad. Just that you have a hard on for it.

Go look at the s2 forum, I'm running cm10 alpha on mine right now and it is official lol. It was up in the air for me between the one s and s2 as well. I would rather have reliable hardware

I'd wait til later in the year to see what the new Nexus device/devices will be. The GS4G, and mainly it's dev community, is more than enough to suffice until then

Honestly I didn't know what the big deal was when I was on this forum before I got this phone with jelly bean. And now having used it for a couple weeks I really still don't see the big deal with it. It's nice don't get me wrong but it's not leaps and bounds better than ics like gb was to ics.
All in all I'm happy with the phone. Dual core is awesome, the gig of ram also helps allot. love the bigger screen. And with the 16g internal and the 16g sd card I had from my sgs4g I don't think I will be worrying about storage problems for awhile lol
