Ok, it has virtually the same specs. Less RAM though??
Good news, we can get a ROM port from it and enjoy the new Sense 4.0
Will you say its a successor to our phone or not?

Advantages over Desire S
1) Actually, the One V has a better screen than us.
Ours is SLCD, this is SLCD2.
According to Paul obrien, it is so amazing, it makes his Galaxy Nexus look 10 years old!
Bloody hell, that says a lot!
2) it also has a better camera, it has a wider lens..
3) larger battery - 1500mah compared to our 1450mah.
Although, the SLCD2 May drain more battery

Definitly NOT, the ONE S is the successor of our DS.
The ONE V is just the ugly successor of the Legend.

Thanks for the input mate
Yeah, I think this is meant to be the successor to the Legend/Wildfire S.
It has near the same specs as us. This is considered a low-end phone. It will be priced around the same margin as the current Wildfire S. This means our phone is now low-end!!
Can you imagine, when the DHD was released, it was a top of thre range high end phone - ann android lovers dream, but now the specs of the DHD are in a low end phone!
IMO, it looks like a sexy device!

The One V will have Sense 3.6 and not Sense 4.0 as One X and One S. This is according to GSMArena.

This appears to be an error from GSMArena as specs from htc's own website for One V show Sense 4.0 on it http://www.htc.com/au/smartphones/htc-one-v/#specs
It also shows that the phone does have a microSD expansion slot as read reader comments from a review site being critical of the phone for not having one
Yes, its still Sense 4 but with less animations (imo not a bad thing).
From what Ive seen on the videos so far, the cube animation when switching homescreens and the new coverflow taskmanager("recent apps") are missing.
As said before, its very similar to our DS, i dont see a reason to upgrade (i will wait one more year).
it have some specs that are a little better (screen, camera), but other are worth (storage, ram, size,battery).
but we can port roms, and get better support for next year
about the new task manager, i liked it, sad it is missing
we have more ram. if we get kernel 3.0 then i say desire s is much better then this one.
What none of you seem to have noticed... is that the One V doesn't have a front facing camera! No 3G video calling on your One V sir!
Also, HTC seems to have dropped the Search key from the entire lineup of the "One" series phones (only three buttons now)... One of the reasons i like my phone is because of that damn button.. it's just too frigging convenient!
So the DS still kicks its ass.
But seriously... is HTC nuts? No front camera? Who does that in today's world man?!

Some things missing, but a direct WVGA port, with no resizing? Makes me smile inside.
Personally, the One S just went right to the top of my list, but still a long time away, when it drops price.

Thanks dan. But i think he just got the resolution part wrong, not the device. (wouldn't want to upgrade to a device without a front camera...)
No front camera then (One V)... so again, driver issues with that one (will have to kang it over from elsewhere).
And if he was talking about the One V, it is hardly worth considering as your next device. We have much more going for the DS... as i posted above. If considering an upgrade, at least think of the One S, or the One X (if you manage to rob a bank!!)
I meant that a direct port of the One V will be way easier than from the other models, due to the hardware similarity (apart from the non-existing FFC).
The One S went to the top of my to buy list, somewhere down the road.

Ahhh, there you go. Confusion cleared.
I'll wait till i can afford the One X though. Might as well splurge on the flagship (don't have any spare cash left anyway, after recently acquiring the Canon 550D, plus a new DS for the wife)

Read the post carefully.
The confusion was regarding the screen resolution on the One S.
I do not know you well enough to gauge your taste in devices, so cool it.
Hi guys not sure if this would be classed as being under the HTC ONE X forum but should be as its aimed at it.
I've currently got a HTC Sensation XE and I'm looking to upgrade to the One X or One S now I'm unsure which one to go with the One X is about £70+ than the One S but has the super LCD 2 HD screen and the other only has the pentile super amoled which is similar to the original galaxy s's where I could see the pixels every now and again depending on the situation etc.
I'm torn between them both as I've been asked to check for any issues with either of them so im wondering is the performance increase going to be there on the one X as I've heard the tegra is slower than the Qualcomm s4 chips quad core wise and the dual s4 chip isnt far off in certain tests, benchmarks and real life?
Could anyone provide me with some useful information and feedback between them and if the performance is a step up from dual core or if its how android used to be not supporting dual core properly till later android builds etccheers

The quadcore for me has been a huge setp up compared to my note. Performance wise it is top notch. I don't care about benchmark scores. In day to day operation it is flawless. The choice is up to you but I would recommend the quad one x.

Much better performance

i upgraded from a Sensation XE recently to a One X and i have been loving it. Sense has become smoother (albeit not earthshakingly smoother as the XE on ICS is doing pretty okay) and the screen is awesome.
One thing. I checked out the One S after using my One X for a few weeks. I could actually see pixelation. Kinda surprised since everyone says its not that big an issue. Seems like our eyes adjust very quickly to better display

Sent from my HTC One S using XDA Premium App
My friends wife has the S, good phone but I would pay £70 just for the superior screen, let alone other upsells. OneX all day long.
Ill be honest I'd go for the x also...although I like my s...still want the x even now.
More for cm9 then the phone maybe...
Still what worries me also with the x is the amount of dodgy devices having to be replaced
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA Premium App
As you asked this in the One X section, 'course a lot of people will tell you to get the X. Though (imo) it really depens on your needs.
I've got the One X for about a week now. I have to say, it is an awesome phone. I really really love the screen. Too bad it is this huge.. It just doesn't fit quite well in my hand. (true, my hands are kind off small) I used to have an HD2, which is only .5cm smaller yet way easier to hold and use with one hand. As I cycle a lot I find this quite important.
If it wasn't for the screen and dev support (don't get me wrong: both are very important!), I would actually buy the One S. In everyday usage the One S is just as fast (maybe even faster) as the quad One X. Unless you want to play a lot of high quality games. If there is any difference at all with 'normal' usage, you won't notice the 0.05 seconds. Also the S' battery life is better, and it looks and feels better imo. This is something really personal though.
But yeah.. Once you've seen the X's screen you won't be satisfied with any other.. Just don't buy it because you think a quadcore phone will surely be faster/better.
Just my two cents.
Yeah as said the screen on the X is much much better. I compared my X to a S in store and was actually surprised as to how much better it is. Also coming from the GS2 the X doesn't really feel that much bigger in hand, and I got small hands. I got the grey one, which looks awesome in my opinion. Even better than the white, but that's personal preference of course.

The One X has way more dev action, and its is likely to stay that way

You should get the HTC ONE X, it has a quad core plus that huge screen. You'll see that it will definetely worth it.

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?

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?

The HTC Rezound is a very solid phone if your on Verizon.
Defo Galaxy Note
I would say you should get the Galaxy Note. The screen is jaw dropping. I would wait until the major bug with the ICS update has been resolved tho.
Yeah the Note is awesome. But the reason I don't want to buy it is because the screen is too big in my opinion. I don't want a phone bigger than 4.3" screen.
The big 5.3" screen is awesome I must say but it doesn't make it a cell phone, somewhere between a phone and a tablet. And I would find it really difficult to carry it around.
The Htc One S is also good. But specs wise the Xperia S gives much more than the One S. That's why I chose the Xperia S. Any other thoughts?
HTC Sensation XE, better than the SXS I believe.

The problem is that I live in India. And my budget is 30,000 INR(approx 550 USD) and the Htc One X is around 37,000 INR which is out of my budget. And the Galaxy Nexus didn't launch in India.
But what do you guys think about the SXS? Is there something bad about it cause no one is even mentioning to buy it. Is it worth the price?

The One S has Snapdragon S4 processor rather than the S3 of Xperia S. That's the main reason why the One S is faster I guess and the main reason I was opting for it before.
But later I heard the news that in India the One S is going to launch with an S3 processor with overclocked 1.7ghz!! (Source) But still its not an S4!
Really a shameful decision by Htc
The processor was the only place where it had outranked SXS, and now its not even that. That's why I am thinking of buying SXS rather.

My opinion was to get the Sensation instead.
The sensation has a bigger screen,but manageable. People will tell you the bravia display is brilliant but there's a price, that screen is a battery guzzler. And Sony don't give much battery.
The Sony has fixed memory.
HTC are built solid. You'll have that phone forever.
Battery pull. I do it all the time when I mess up. You can't do that on a SXS.

Are you talking about just the Sensation or the Sensation XE/XL? And don't you think these devices are old now? I mean in some time they will become completely out dated.
And for the SXS besides the battery life and the yellow tint problem(which sony replaces for free) are there any other serious issues?
I would pre order the Samsung Galaxy III
I'd get galaxy note , International unlocked version as onsale on ebay for 459 USD over aweek ago. I would wait and catch the SALES.

I was talking about the XE. It is a well clocked dual core phone,and was built as a flagship device. The XL has only cosmetic updates but if they matter to you, you can consider it.
These phones they'd like to make you think they're outdated, but they're not. HTC gave the XE ics,and $150 earbuds. I'm not an audiophile so I don't care if there's better buds in that price range coz again, they came free. Big discount. It has Sense 3.6 which is Stable(4.0 was something new and has issues) so only the one update when you open the box and your phone will be perfectly userble. Sony take forever to update,and sometimes not at all.(PLAY anyone?) And their phones don't stay flagship too long(arc-arc s-xperia s gap) and the original arc was abandoned to 2011 waiting list. Sense > Timescape.
I like using my phone abit before resorting to xda.So if I we're to suggest phones
1. Galaxy S2
2.HTC sensation XE
3.Galaxy Note
4.Sony Xperia S
5.Droid RAZR MAXX.
I'm looking for an Android phone with a good camera and it seems HTC One X fits my budget ($250). I read that HTC One camera develops purple fringes. Is that true for One X too? Please advise if it's still worthy buying HTC One X or if you have other suggestions please let me know.
Are you wanting the HTC One X or the HTC One XL / at&t One X? You're asking in the HTC One XL / at&t One X forum. The camera on this phone is fine, I've never had a problem with it.

It's going to be mostly AT&T HTC One X. That's what I find being sold in Ebay. That said I was assuming that there should not be much difference between the AT&T version and the other versions of One X. I could be wrong.
They look similar but they're entirely different on the inside. But you're in the right place for the at&t version. In my opinion it's the better phone; far superior development if you're looking to unlock/root it, the Qualcomm chip doesn't heat up nearly as much as the chip in the international One X, and if course it's LTE too.
Sent from my Evita
That said, it's an older phone (as phone development cycles go) that's not getting the newest Android, so... you know, as long as you're OK with that.
Just to be clear, it may not be getting the latest Android via an official update but I'm currently running 4.4.2 thanks to our developers. Just saying it won't get the latest version might be a bit misleading.

I'm sure you can find Moto X's around 250 on Craigslist or eBay? There is that Monday Sale (300$) coming up as well.
Outside of that, One X is an okay choice. It would be better if you wait though. We're probably only 2 months from HTC introducing their next phone and that could probably drive HTC One prices to 250.
