Hi all, been to the product launch for HTC one series in Singapore this morning. Sad to say, they will not be bringing in the One S, so only One X and One V are available for all 3 major telcos.
Hands on the One X really have the premium feel like what other forumers described. The country sales manager actually threw or drop his phone several times on stage to prove the durability. As much as it is scratch proof, it is not scratch resistant. You do may get scratch marks if both the angle and force is right. The curve edge of the gorilla glass at the side do resembles the Nokia lumia to answer the questions for some.
I am really impressed by the speed of the camera and the OS. Tried the picture taking while taking videos. The picture quality I would say may not be ideal to some. Focus can be poor due to low light.
Fortunately, they are giving us S$100 off for the phone in a limited period. And if we order in the next few days, they are giving the DLNA link for free! Lucky I didn't miss that out!!
I believe I have missed out several points but do let me know if you want to find out more.

Yes you were able to play with it. Besides that, I happen to hear the country manager answering some questions and he did mentioned that in any case your phone hangs, press both the volume and power button and it should restart the phone.

There are all sorts of info ou there, saying different things as to the release date of the Galaxy Nexus (Nexus Prime woulda been better!) on T-Mobile's Networks, I haven't had the time to research it as much as I'm sure some of you have, can someone confirm a date for Nexus Prime date on T-Mobile?
I'm hoping before Black Friday, so I can get it on Black Friday at Best BUy
Otherwise it may be a little bit till i get the Galaxy Nexus it is hard for my mom to get time off work enough to get me there and buy it!
Anyways thanks in advance.... I looked thru this forum couldn't find the answer... Am I dumb?
sry if this is somewhere already
Nobody really knows
So there all just speculation?

Tell your mom you want her to switch you to Verizon.
No one knows. Thats why theres like 10000 threads about it.
When it comes down to it you can always import and use ur T-mo SIM. If I had to bet I'd say you could buy it unlocked in the USA soon enough as well. Doubt T-mo will pick it up subsidized but we'll see.

It means if somehow the unlocked version doesn't get launched here right away and you really want it, you can import one from Europe (paying extra) and put your T-mobile SIM card in it. It'll be expensive and I wouldn't recommend it if you can wait.

Doubts Verizon will see this before T-Mobile? Was that seriously just uttered? T-Mobile hasn't even announced this phone on their network, much less thought about a release date for it. Yes, it's on Samsung's site as it being available for T-Mobile, but at least Verizon has announced officially that it will have the phone and before the end of the year. T-Mobile ... not so much.
a lot of tail some diseases lots of enemies and maybe child support and divorce! but as for the new nexus...I believe VZW is the only us carrier getting one this year. if u want it on another then its over 700 for the small size 16 or possibly att tmo next year.

You can't really blame the price on Samsung. It seems high because the US dollar has lost so much in value. The actual cost in other currencies is basically the same as previous Nexus phones when you factor in VAT.
I think the GSM/HSPA version will be sold unlocked at launch in the US too. It is a phone for developers so they will want to make sure developers can get it.
OT: greatest thing about google+, I can easily mute thread that aren't useful (like my post).
Hi Everyone,
While I love my desire I think it's time for an upgrade. How much do you think I can get for it? I am thinking I can sell and use money to get a new phone.
Cheers

Depends on which area you are.
In my area, Malaysia it will be around usd150 - usd200.
You could check your eBay - if you do a completed listings search, it'll show you wha has sold and for what price (& what hasn't sold), also bear in mind unlocked vs locked and amoled vs slcd (I think) as some people may more for the former in both instances.
When I've looked for UK they are fetching about £130-150
Around the 200€ depending on the state of it and as waggermama said, the specs
Thanks for the responses. Looking at ebay is a great idea. I am from Canada and with Telus. I am pretty sure it's amoled and the bravo model. Looks like top prices are 250-300 cdn range.
Happy holidays

ive also been waiting for the dock to arrive from amazon - mines been on order for over 6 weeks now and was originally shown as instock, its rather annoying that htc always wait forever and a day to release accessories when they release new phones. Htc must loss a small fortune because of this, i gave up with an official case and went elsewhere - i wonder how many other people do the same.
Not being funny but what does this bar hold the device and pass through the USB?
For 50 quid I hope I'm missing something

Looking like a really nice phone! It's better then Desire Xbut it's more expensive. Gonna buy a Desire X! :victory:
I thought HTC were stopping this crap with flooding the market with phones?
I currently have an Inspire "4G". Where Im sitting, the VX looks pretty good. Not only is it an increase in screen size and processor specs, but also provides a front camera i've been missing since i lost my iphone. To top it all off, its only $50. I know the One X+ looks great and all, the VX just might be more of what i need. I don't watch movies on my phone(i use my ipad), and I HATE touch screen gaming, so yeah, i think this may be my next upgrade.

I'm in the same boat as you, I think 5.7" is too big , but unlke you, I do watch movies and play games in the phone , but I'm missing the front facing camera , even thought the specs on this one are low. A least I'll have one now , I don't have to flip the phone when I'm using tango
Just putting it out there , I check a few stores , and they don't have it . I wonder if is available . Or is on hold , or some stuff like that
$29.99 at my local mall at&t kiosk
pretty sweet little phone. can't wait til the devs get a crack at it
I'm also using an HTC DHD. I'm running AOKP JB 4.2.2and am really happy that the devs have supported that phone for so long, but I'm ready for an upgrade.
At this moment the One VX is 99¢ at ATT online. Naturally I came here first to see what the community has been doing with the device. The early lack of support is keeping my wallet closed for now.
..maybe.

I was really very tempted to get HOX when it got announced last year which I of course bought. Somehow I don't feel that about ONE.

apart from the battery and the camera i dont think the s4 has got that much more.. good looking device but i think the alluminium unibody of the One is nicer. and probably most of the people here prefers sense over touchwiz. indeed two top specs phones!
definitely tempted with One. Also signed up for the supposely $100 rebate from HTC. Who knows...I might buy the One to get the rebate and sell it hopefully at a higher price. :fingers-crossed:...unless I decide to keep it
