2012 year of the quad cores

So I wanted to upgrade to a new phone like the amaze but it makes sense to wait two more or 3 months for the quad core processor phones right guys? Let's hear some feeback and what are you gonna do? Wait it out too??
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

Yea, I agree. I get bored easily, this is the first phone I've kept for this long (about a year). At first, I was looking at a gradual upgrade, something like a sensation or a g2x... Then I figured if I'm gonna spend $$, might as well just do it for the long haul & look into an amaze, galaxy s2 or even wait for a galaxy nexus... After all is said & done, I'm still using my glacier & will continue to do so. We've got an awesome dev section & something better will always be just ahead of the curve, but I'm definitely waiting for 2012...

Yea bro I feel ya..it'll be best to wait it out cause if I buy a phone I might as get one that will be quad and better camera and faster processor..I love my mytouch it has been with me through alot

I'm interested in the HTC ville. Not quad core but the krait dual core processor looks interesting. Especially since ICS is optimized for dual core.

+1...next phone will probably be the Edge when it drops. specs are pretty awesome

Rumored samsung galaxy s3
currently researching sg2 and nexus prime..

Wait for the quad core nexus. Quad cores will have better architectures and will be more stable,better battery life, and etc.

The Ville is the 4.3" ICS phone right? That sounds so much nicer size-wise than the massive Galaxy Nexus. Should come out more compact than the Amaze or Sensation due to the removal of buttons.
However the render appears to have a screen aspect ratio of 1.64 or so, which is closer to the 5x3 of an 800x480 display than the 16x9 (1.777) of a qHD display. So the render is misshapen.

Yes the ville is the 4.3" screen one. Same screen as the RAZR i believe. Its gonna be nice because the 28nm processor allows for it to be really thin. So it shouldn't be much heavier than the MT4G.

it will come with 1.5GH snapdragon s4 processor and here's the full specification of it. A 4.3-inch qHD (960×540) Super AMOLED display; a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor; 8MP camera on the back with 1080p HD video capture; a 1,650mAh battery; HSPA+-connectivity; and Beats Audio Technology. The handset will apparently measure in at only 8mm thick,will launch with Android 4.0, and will also launch HTC’s Sense 4.0 overlay.

I'm just gonna wait for the next Nexus. Saves me the headache of whether my phone will have the latest Android software.

Ugh, when you say same screen as the RAZR, I hope you don't mean including the PenTile matrix. I thought I wouldn't notice it at qHD resolution, but I tried it in store and the colour fringing was just awful.

If you are waiting for the greatest smartphone you will be waiting forever, there is always going to be a rumor about a supposed OMG smartphone RIGHT before you was about to purchase the smartphone you thought was awesome. In my opinion, to have a really satisfying smartphone experience there needs to be great utilization of software and hardware. Software is something that has always been a bit of a hindered on devices with custom skins (most of the Android ecosystem). The only ways to really circumvent this is to either buy a Nexus devices or root your device in HOPES of finding a solid ROM to flash. I think this makes the decision quite easy, buy the Galaxy Nexus.

Htc One s!

Thinking about getting it. What do you all think?

Oh god no. HTC is no good in my book.

It's not a samsung,so no.just knowing I have Odin at my finger tips alone makes me say no.sorry it's just one mans thoughts.good luck.
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.

gosh no...never
gosh no....that's a complete waste of even producing a phone...the specs on it alone make me laugh when my htc g2 would still out-preform the htc one...to jump ship from the galaxy s2 to that...what can i say but happy disappointment, just like the nexus...my two cents

The amaze drove me from ever using htc again. Htc unlock is hella bogus, if you like control over what you buy than htc has pretty much alienated all its loyal customers. With sammy from now on, or until they piss me off again

HTC one s would be a down grade...now if was the one X....that woulda been worth looking at

Doesn't it use the same processor as our phones?

Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

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.

Good phone!
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...

Both are great phone.

HTC one x
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA

onex, if u can wait. but I like the ability to replace the battery in my phone, sooo that depends

IMO the HTC One X is the superior device.
- Better processor (the AT&T dual core version is better than the regular quad core version!)
- Better screen (but only by a fraction)
- Better size (in my opinion)
- Beats Audio
- Better UI (in my opinion)
- Better build quality
The only advantage the Note has is a removable battery, although I've heard that the one included in the HTC is awesome.
Either way, both are great devices.
If I helped, please say thanks

yeah now the battle is between one x and one xl
the xl comes with the latest snapdragon S4 dual core krait which beats the quad core tegra 3...and LTE.
Really confused between the x and the xl.
thanks for your replies.

Bro ur in India right? So i think we'll be getting the one x only we only have 3g here as of now no 4G. So no need for confusion. I'm also planning to get the one x

2. now i have a galaxy note is a big galaxy s2 very fast the s-pen very nice the size used to it
the htc have nice animations is also a good phone for me galaxy note

The HTC's probably got better hardware, but if you want to scribble things with a stylus you might be better off with the note.

Great support for htc here
How is galaxy nexus? I am getting a good deal over here ...around 160 usd cheaper than htc one x's probable price. I love vanilla ics and nexus series is great with updates.

Hi,
At the moment i have the htc desire. I like to play games and browse a lot. Here are some criteria about a phone:
- dual core or quad core
- screen at least 4,3 inch
- no pentile screen
- sd card slot
- ics

samsung galaxy s3, note

Motorola atrix

Note and s3 have pentile so they arent a option.
I think there are not much phones that have all these things, the one x has no sd card slot, same with the galaxy nexus.
Anything else?

HTC One X

The new LG Eclipse was the name if i remember with 2150mAh and IPS screen.
Don't forget the 2GB ram.
Or you can go with RAZR Maxx

Which carrier?
AT&T : HTC One X or the upcoming Samsung Galaxy 3 (July release)
Verizon: Droid Razr is really the only good Android right now
Sprint: HTC Evo 4G LTE coming out this week
Tmobile: HTC one S
If you're not carrier specific go for the HTC ONE X

Hey, so you don't want pentile screen. Choose the galaxy s2. You'll get a huge amount of roms and development support. Its still one of the best phones ever made ^^

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

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?

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
