[Q] HTC One X or HTC One S - General Questions and Answers

Hi everyone,
I need some quick, friendly advise think I've bagged myself two good deals for these handsets going to be a quick sale for either of them today.
HTC One X or HTC One S
Which handset would you say is better? I'm aware the HTC One X records at only 24fps in 1080p, that doesn't bother me won't be doing much recording.
Looking forward to hearing your views, ty.

Is there any contest between these two? Is the One X clearly ahead of the One S? I'm can get them at nearly the same price which one is better for the money?

I have htc one X and must say that ic goood phone but only if you root thise device and install custom rom..

The one x is definitely the better phone. The one s is the younger brother of the one x and on the long run the one x is more futureproof.

galaxy note vs htc one x

I am planning to buy galaxy note or htc one x..
What do you suggest?
thanks
Both are great phone.
Latest is one x.

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.

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.

xl has the nicer screen but if you just want the one with better battery life, the s should be it for you. imho though, it doesn't add enough battery to forsake that gorgeous screen, but that's me.
Way to ask a group that's biased.... lol

can u tell me standby battery time of HTC one XL...
The one S would have been flawless to me if it came with a 720p screen. Love its
compact design, but the one X should be the clear choice here.

i don't have one but from what i've read from peter, it's looking like 30 days of standby, lol. seriously though, i'd say the s has maybe 10-15% more life battery wise. the x costs the same. unless you find a 4.7" screen phone to big (which is possible, i sold my note for this reason) then get the x. just trust me on this...
The One X/XL is the better phone by design. While the One X is HTC's flagship device for this year, the One S is merely HTC's midrange offering. Which is too bad, because if HTC had given the One S a better display similar to the One X, as well as the other features they've stripped out I think I'd.actually prefer the slightly smaller One S. At the very least I would have given it serious consideration.

[Q] Transformer Prime or AT&T HTC One X

I have a brand new ASUS Transformer Prime 64gb in box that has just been sitting around my house and I was wondering if I should trade my friend for his brand new in box AT&T One X. I have T-mobile and am not sure if I'd use the One X or not. But in terms of craigslist resale value and popularity what should I do? I've had the prime listed for $550 on there for over a week and no legitimate bites on it yet. So basically I have two questions. Should I trade for the One x? and should I keep it for use on T-mobile or try to sell on craigslist? Thanks
The one x is a pretty sweet phone and I did own the transformer prime with the dock but could only sell it for 500 with dock and tablet kinda hard to sell. I own the one x and I have no complaints about it

ya thats my problem, i can not sell this tablet at all lol. Thanks for your input, i'll probably just end up trading for the one x then
The One X is pretty damn awesome. I've never had such a smooth experience on Android.
And the design is a huge plus
Definitely better to have a one x sitting around in a box than the transformer

I would definitely go for the One X. I am not a fan of any Android tablets just yet so I admit I am a little biased. The One X is awesome.

haha, but now that we've answered the first question, what should i do once i get the One X, keep it and use on tmobile (and hope for S-Off and a flashable radio to get 4g speeds like my skyrocket) or just resell on craigslist?

Maybe you can keep it in the box until tmo switches on their other frequency which will get you the 4g or if you have an extra $45 a month you could get a straight talk unlimited plan with an att compatible Sim. What's better than having 2 phones in your pocket like a big boss

HTC one x vs GSM nexus

I know a lot of people here have a GSM nexus just because its a dev phone
I was wondering about trading my one x for a white galaxy nexus
I need a phone that can work in Pakistan
Also I love having the fastest and best of those two phones and the most options
I love the screen on my one x and just wondering how the screen on the nexus is
So for people who have both phones can you please tell me which of the two is better and why or the pros and cons of both
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I'd only suggest it if you can get it for the 350 dollars it costs from the Google Play Store. In Canada, you can only get it from carriers which charge around 650 dollars for it without a contract.
The Galaxy Nexus screen is... decent. The blacks look great but the whites are somewhat blue-ish. While the One X has the best screen I've seen on a phone, I'd gladly sacrifice that for a Galaxy Nexus if I only had to pay 350 for it.
Whether it will work in Pakistan is a different story. I am not sure what the frequencies are there, and whether 3G/4G will even work.

That's not an even trade at all. You are talking a $550 phone (HOX) for a $350 one. At least get some cash tossed in too if you are serious about it.

This. The only phone I'd consider an even swap is a Galaxy S 3.
I had a Galaxy Nexus and sold it to buy a One X, and I don't regret it. The Galaxy Nexus has a far larger developer community, but aside from that I prefer the One X in every regard. The battery life on my LTE One X is FAR better than on my GSM Nexus, the screen is worlds better, and the One X far smoother (at least smoother pre-Jelly Bean). Additionally, the camera on my One X produces better shots as well.
If you like flashing ROMs for the sake of flashing ROMs, consider the Nexus. For pretty much every other reason the One X is superior.

The One X is a far better phone hardware-wise. The screen is where it really stands out. Since you said you would be trading for a GSM version of the Nexus, I assume that Pakistan uses GSM. Your best bet would be to buy an unlock code for your One X off ebay for $6, and unlock the One X.
As far as development goes, the GNEX has better developer support in terms of quantity. I think our dev quality is equal if not better, considering we have ROM choices and no kernel source has been released. When speaking of development, I ask you "What can't you do on the One X right now?"
Root - Check
Bootloader Unlock - Check
Tethering - Check
Custom Rom - Check (albeit some minor issues)
We don't need kernel tweaks for battery because the battery on the One X is fantastic.
I ran AOKP on my Skyrocket because it gave me slightly better battery life and Tethering support. I run CleanRom on my HOX, and I have all of the same features, and everything just works...no flashing nightlies or kernels to fix soft reboots.
I personally couldn't be happier with my HOX, and I'm glad I chose it over the S3 or GNEX.

You'd be crazy to even swap a nexus. OneX spanks that thing
sent from my fire breathing HTC OneXL using xda-developers app
Gonna have to agree with the majority here. Last year before the nexus came out, I told myself I'd get one. When it did, I wasn't really impressed with the hardware.
The one x has is better than the galaxy nexus in every way other than the true blacks of the screen and software updates. But the one x has a great amount of developers and the only thing left at this point is the source release from HTC. Once its released, custom roms and kernels will be abundant.
Hardware on one x is at least a year ahead of the gnex. Like another member said, only other phone I would trade straight up is a s3. And even then, the feel and build of the one x is still better.

This.
Except that I still love ROMs but I'm also much happier with the hardware on the One X. Side by side, the difference in screen quality is unbelievable.
Sucks losing a larger dev community, but I don't regret selling my Nexus.
Using: HTC One X // Paranoid Android // Tapatalk
I switched out due to wanting to learn how to dev really badly with a Nexus device being the best to learn on, and due to the cost difference for me saved ($70) but I miss my One X dearly.
The build quality is unmatched... the screen is stellar. And its blazing fast, not to mention its sexy as hell.
I don't think I made a mistake, because I really do like my Nexus (the screen is pretty damn awesome and I just like the feel), but I am definitely getting another One X in a month or two when the price drops.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
I'd suggest playing with the nexus as much as you canand just see if you love it more.
Imo, stick with the hox. My pros are screen and speed overall. The available Roms are fun enough to mess with.

One X
One X for its build quality and great screen.
I know the Gnex is a developer's dream but the way I look at it.
With HTC One X - can you have a fully functional asop rom = yes.
With the Gnex - can you have a fully functional sense rom = no.
I always prefer asop but with an HTC phone, you always have the option to go back to working "sense". If that makes any sense lol.

From what I just read on engadget the + is the same exact size
See this is what confuses me did it dat same size as one x or one xl?

I have a feeling it is this case...
http://www.expansys-usa.com/info.aspx?i=237325
but I can't get the picture to load, so I'd be wary until they get one up. Not to mention in the description:
"We have no confirmed lead time for this item - call for more details."
and
"The HC C790 shell snaps onto the back of your Desire X+ "
I'll be watching this though.
If u look over in the one x forum some one posted they got a one x+ and had a case for there one x that fit perfect on there new one x+ so I would assume it has the same specs as the international version as far as size.
