HTC one x

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

I think the xl is for 4g LTE. i dont think we'll be getting it.
dear (sorry for my english)
1.before i have i galaxy s2 (very fast phone and you have enough roms )
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.

HTC is best!!
i think HTC one x
and i'll get one
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.

Verizon one x

Any info if Verizon will have there own version such as a Rezound II or Thunderbolt II?
They have their One variant already. It's the One S in the Incredible 4g Name sake. Their next big device is going to be a 5 inch device with the quad core S4 coming later in the year
That sucks for Verizon, this is a great device. One worth switching for, just saying.

their one s variant is also pretty bastardized and terrible looking.

Recommend me a smartphone

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
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
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 ^^

Which one to buy

Hey developers need your suggestions......
Which smartphone should i buy
1. Htc Thunderbolt
2. Htc Evo 4g
If you're on AT&T I'd say neither. It all depends on your carrier for the most part.

Just wondering. What made you like the n2 better. The DNA is very fast and gets better benchmarks then the n2.

My only fear with the DNA is that it might lose developer support. HTC isn't in good relations with developers at current time, whereas Samsung devices have awesome support. I like the hardware on the DNA way more though.

Exactly Htc lacks in marketing as compared with Samsung!
Plus note 2 has a removable battery and expandable sd, with lots of progress made on bootloader unlocking on Verizon.
DNA is one sleek and sexy phone, though!

But you know what it doesn't have? A 1080p 440ppi screen.

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.
The htc droid devices usually get sources quicker than their other devices like the Thunderbolt. I think that they are like htcs version of a development device.

Yeah I heard about that. Sounds like a beast. Sony I think is also gonna release a 5 inch 1080p 16 megapixel 128gb storage beast. But sony so who knows how it will be....

Sony phones are generally pretty easy to unlock it seems like. I've never had one, but from tech stories I see, that's the impression I get.

Question whether I have one x or one xl

I bought my HTC One X from Skizmcniz and was told I have an HTC one xl.... I'm confused because I was told the xl in the international, my phone is AT&T branded at the top of the screen and has a dual-core processor... Maybe someone can help me? I'm just confused lol.... And don't base my phone on my signature, its a custom Sig
Sent from my HTC One X using xda-developers app
You are in the correct forum you have the xl with the dual core not the x with the quad core. Stick to this forum like you have been for the past week and you will be fine. I've never even went to the htc one x forum one time since getting my phone there's just no point getting excited about things that brick our phones just because htc names everything f'd up

The AT&T branded One X is really a One XL. The L signifies LTE. This is further confirmed by the fact that it is dual core. The international One X is a quad core tegra 3. The One XL is a dual core S4 that's probably just as fast as the quad core tegra 3.
