Hello my nerds!
My question is simple, maybe a bit stupid but what'so'ever:
What's your opinion 'bout the device (HTC ONE X)? I'm going to upgrade my old htc desire with one after the Samsung S3 is released but an ugly piece of plastic-stuff.
Is this piece of HTC intelligence SEXY OR WHAT?
Cheers

Stay away from the us one x. It has no micro SD, no quad core and 4g lte is almost non existant

since you are a recognized developer, and from HTC Desire just like me. COme on in. We love devs!
it is sexy and development is hot plus long term software support. stay away from Samsung.
JUST REMEMBER,
you interact with the screen the most
and the one x has got a hell of a good screen
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
The one x is the better choice believe me. Above everything else you should look at a manufacturers past performance. Samsung are woeful when it comes to releasing updates, whereas HTC keep dedicated teams on each model for two years and updates are regular.
Another reason is sense 4. It is the best android launcher ever.

I was going to buy the Galaxy S3... But I got to experience it two days ago and I hated it. The speed and the screen are okay... The interface is yucky though as well as the keyboard.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I heard something about nvidia tegra 3 update in this thread, is it real? will nvidia update drivers for tegra 3 in one x ? becouse now i think it is kind of lame, so much power and still has some lags in the glowing ball app which is made for tegra 3 ....
I upgraded from the Desire to the HOX & haven't regretted it once, when i saw the SGS3 i was glad i never waited.
The screen on the HOX is far superior & the HOX feels like a superior phone too, besides although the HOX had minor overheating until the first updates they weren't as bad as this.

I was initially a Gnex user. Never thought of s3 or HOX. HOX looks cool and awesome but I never want it cuz i want nexus anytime. S3 got announced n I thought it was meh.. Shortly after that, I my nexus had a mobo failure. Went for warranty and sold it. Got one x instead.

I am not sure how it happened. Checking some twitter, laying down on my bed. Then few minutes I can't turn it on ever again. The center said it was mobo replacement. Sold it cuz that time one x just released. I missed my nexus though, if I got any extra cash I would buy it back. But, I never regretted getting HOX.

The New Nexus will probably come at around Christmas time or slightly earlier if I had to guess. Not sure about specs, but probably similar to the S3's specs.

No you bought the right device. The gs3 will still go for around $450 by CHristmas time. I sold my galaxy note for $390 and it's been out for a while now. So you can still get that Nexus.

Yea I mean no doubt that the S3 has better resale value... I'm just starting to miss the software side of the Nexus and all of the customization it has (and I love the virtual buttons and design of the phone). No doubt though, the S3 blows the Nexus away in terms of benchmarks and gaming

Yeah I know what you mean though. I used to have a galaxy nexus. Love the ROMs and the updates. I actually wanted the one x but I got this since I plan to get whatever new device is released this winter so I opted for resale value over what I really wanted. Don't get me wrong, the s3 is probably the best phone out, I just wanted to try the new htc sense.

if you are eligible for an upgrade right, i would suggest to not use it, and either pick up a used Nexus or the one straight from Google's Play store. this way, you can save your upgrade for when the new Nexus comes out, but still have a good phone for right now.
upgrade to the "new" iphone then trade it for both the Note 2 and GS3. :silly:

I hear the Note 4 will be awesome. Why not wait for it? There will always be a better phone on the horizon.
You could just buy the Note2 now, sell it as soon as the Note3 comes out and you will have most of the Note3 paid for.
Lol at the sarcasm. Umm I recently got it and love every bit of it, and don't see any chance of regretting in the futures. I tend to regret if there are issues or anything I am unhappy with, but NONE so far

Get the Note 2. When you get bored, then get the Note 3. :victory:
if they do a note III. There might be something completely different in 12 months!
my personal opinion would be get note 2 now.
because its still new, holds value pretty well, but once we are in 2013, i would consider S4.
to be honest I change phone roughly every 2 years, and I just get the one that I will be happy with, that's future proof ish (eg. LTE) for 2 years.
Note 6 is the best! Full 1080p 3D screen, and the screen is FOLDABLE!
I'd wait!

Do your research, make your mind up and stop expecting to be spoonfed. You give no info as to what your needs are, hence any advice from others is almost as pointless as your question.

i heard about the note 20 , it will include features such as teleportation, transoformation with a hit of a button, 100000mah battery 10 inch screen multiple quad cores in one and many other impressive features
Quad cores? Man who is your source? It has kilo-cores : 1024 cores

I know what you mean, there are two things I want in my next phone: bigger screen and bigger battery. The N4 is a definite pass for me.
Are you planning on selling the gnex? Or keeping it as a backup? Or installing Ubuntu?
I'm going to be moving on to a new device myself in the next couple months, been trying to decide what to do with this one.

Not really, I have never received an ota, I've been flashing since the nexus s first came out, I'll get a new phone at the end of this year so hopefully there is another decent nexus by then. The only I'm anxious about is ROMs getting the bravia engine working and stuff like that.

soo what you guys think should i buy this phone? as the phone being an oldy, we here get it at a price range of 20k rupees .. the phone in the same budget are Samsung grand desire cv and quite higher 25k we get one s .. one s with the s3 processor 1.7ghz oc.. not the universal 1.5 s4 processor.
soo guys what's your view on this? i know a Google device is a Google device with plenty of fukn development everyday
i currently own a one v,

It doesn't make sense to buy any of those devices at that price. Especially not anything from HTC with the ONE coming out so soon.
Many online shopping portals are selling the 16gb nexus 4 for around 24 to 25k. That would be a better option than gnex plus i really feel the next major android update(KLP) will not be as lag free as jelly bean on gnex.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I bounce back and forth between my HTC One S (s4) and Galaxy Nexus.
If you have to choose from both, I'd say the Nexus, unless you love sense. The development community is larger for the Nexus. I like that it has a removable battery and a bigger screen. I'm switching back to my GN after his post.
I don't think there is much development for the S3 version of the One S. I will say sometimes the smaller size of the One S is nice and personally, I think the camera is better.
Goodluck. I don't think you can go wrong with either.
Good luck.

Yeah, I bought my wife an N4 as a surprise and now I have her old Gnex. As I said in my last post, I still the the Gnex has some legs, especially given the large development community. Also, I actually didn't mind running the Gnex on stock for a bit. Of the last four phones I've had, this one made it the longest before getting a custom ROM. I finally rooted last night and am running the lastest CM 10.1 nightly.
I will say this, with all the different ROMs available for the GNex, it'd be like having a new phone all the time (if you're a flashaholic). As much as I like my HTC One S and respect the developers, there aren't nearly as many ROMs available. Viper 2.1 (Sense) is great, and I also like Liquid Smooth (AOSP) for the One S,
Both phones have run smooth for me, on different Roms. I'm still trying to get good photos with my Gnex (any suggestions?), so the one big advantage of the One S is the camera.
Again, good luck and let us know what you go with. Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions on comparing the two.

LG N4 is $489 for 16gb model here which i think is not cheap like it is elsewhere like in the US, certainly not worth almost $500 like it is here.
