i came from the galaxy s2..and i have to say although i love my s2 and i do miss flashing i am very happy with my purchase..so yeah i would recommend it mate..and the led notification is a charm to have
Id hold off till the bugs and flaws are ironed out personally its an awesome phone just want to give honest advice
Mod or Die
if you're desperate then you'll most likely get it regardless of what we advice you
It depends a lot on ur usage and preference...
If u want a large screened smartphone, note scores over the one x...
If u r looking for awesome graphics performance, gaming, etc... Note can't compete with the one x...
One x also has a better camera and sense 4 GUI by HTC...It's a completely different world man....
In the end it's ur choice... :thumbup:

I actually have the Galaxy Note and the Galaxy Nexus and I would say you should switch for sure. The massive screen on the Note is fantastic but to be honest i found it to be slower than the GS2 (probably because of pixel density) and Samsung is really slow on the updates, although the notes isn't actually moving that slowly. I would say without question the One X is far better than the Note's as well as the speed of the device. I do like the active digitizer on the note but i couldn't find a legit use for it. And the lack of NFC kinda sucked for me too.
To sum up... SWITCH!!!! and then switch to the GS3 lol.
Or just wait for the s3

I doubt anything will be better than the One X this year, maybe comparable although in personally in the looks department i think this phone is beautiful so thats hard to beat, specially if the s3 is just an evolution from the s2
but it cant hurt to just wait a few weeks and see what s3 has to offer, i just purchased a one x and love it thought ^.^
I had a tough choice choosing between Galaxy Nexus/One X and Galaxy Note...
I ended up going for the One X as i thought it was such a great looking phone compared to the other two.

I don't know if i agree with all of this but I would suspect the GS3's build quality to not be as good as the One X. I do suspect it will be faster and might have a better screen although i don't see how that would be possible lol. I personally loved the build quality of the Galaxy Nexus. Its the only reason I kept that one over the Note. I also thought the GS2 was solid too but the low resolution made that one lose the battle.
I'm a click away from buying this phone.
Anyone come from the Note? The One X worth it.
I have both since last week.
Note has bigger screen, which is better for e-reading, browsing, games.
One X fits better to the hand ('cause it's smaller); is faster in some very specific tasks (like indexing a stardict DICT to Fora dictionary), but overall in normal games and browsing, it's the same as Note; handle 1080p videos better than Note.
My One X has a yellowish screen, so take this thread I created yesterday with a grain of sault, since many One X's have normal white screens.

Thanks mate, sounds like I'm sticking to my Note then. Its only the size now and again that bothers me with the Note. Very tempted to buy the One X but the GSIII is around the corner but still fancy the One X :-/

stick with the note mate and then just sell that and go for the galaxy s3..one x is a gorgeous phone, beautiful screen and all round one hell of a beast of a phone. but my first android phone was the s2. for me was easier to root and basically i could do anything i wanted with my eyes shut..so far with the HOX is like running a marathon...probs would get easier when there is a one click root procedure but for now to many problems and hassles with warranty if you unlock and etc..
anyways wait till the s3 comes out and then compare and go for the one you want...i know which one i would be looking at though

I've had the one x since release and about 2 days later my wife got a galaxy note. To be perfectly honest, in the current state of both devices (both latest available releases) I can't find anything remotely better about the one x over the note. In fact I am quite embarrased to show my device to my wife after the build up I gave to her about it.
The only possible reason that I can think of for you to chose the one x right now is if all your trowsers have small pockets.

Second thoughts....I can't admit that my wife has a better device than me. I'll just have to pretend for the time being and hope things improve.
As others have said, stick with the Note and wait to see what the SGS3 has to offer, or for HTC to iron out all the software/build issues the One X has right now.
Yeah will stick to the Note. I'm running Stunner rom anyways so its near enough stock android. I'll check the Galaxy S3 and see if that's worth jumping ship.

Gave my note to my son but am contemplating switching with him. Great device but the battery life simply is pathetic. Hopefully an update will solve the battery life issue but if it doesn't am going back to the note with the bigger screen and decent battery life.

Stick with the Note
recklesslife,
Stick with the Note and wait for the SGIII. Your a Samsung user and use to the TW. Further, its in the heads of the general public that Android's best phone is from Samsung (SGII). Therefore, the anticipation for the SGIII to best all smartphones including the IPhone is given. Even though HTC fans won't like it. The marketing Samsung has put into the SG line is great all over the world. HTC needs a more complete package in terms of marketing and reliability of their phones.
Most of you say keep the Note. So I guess that's what I'll do. Was tempted to buy the One X. Can't knock the note really so don't know why I want to get a different phone. One X does look nice..
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
I owned a Note but as of about 5 mins ago I don't have it anymore but I would say go with the One X. I find the One X is far superior to the Note in every area except for pure screen size. For me I would rather have a better screen than a bigger screen. Oh and touchwiz isn't as heavy as sense nor as buggy as sense 4.0
Hate Touchwiz and hate phones with an overly plasticy finish. Why I ended up switching from a GSII to a Sensation.
I you plan to root though, doesn't really make much difference what phone you go for.
I was considering the G-Note also. I wanted something with a larger screen coming from a SGS2. My first choice was actually the Eluga Power. It has a much more modern processor, runs ICS out of the box, and has a smaller form factor than the G-Note. Unfortunately (for me), it only supports EU HSPA bands. But at the end of the day the G-Note really is older tech and just a gigantic SGS2 with S-Pen.
Here's a dimensions comparison:
Samsung Galaxy Note - 146.9x83x9.7mm, 178g
Panasonic Eluga Power - 136x70x9.6mm, 133g
http://www.knowyourmobile.com/comparisons/1328692/samsung_galaxy_note_vs_panasonic_eluga_power.html
No offence to G-Note fans, but they look ridiculous when you hold them to your ear and you can't constantly wear a BT headset to avoid having to use it that way. I also have a 3G tablet so decided that 4.7ish" (HOX, GN, SGS3) was just more practical. Also, Samsung's release of ICS for the SGS2 has been a cluster so I can't imagine the G-Note's being any better.
Just some food for thought…

Note was launched on Oct. Obviously it will be outdated in terms of specs. Were you expecting otherwise?
GN is even more outdated. HOX can't even better iP4s in terms of GPU (forget about new iPad). We have no clue SGS3 -- is it called SGS3 or something else??
Which company have been any better in terms of ICS update? How many HTC/Moto/SE phones have been updated? Most people here don't prefer OEM skins anyway. So if someone is going to root and ROM, why bother about OEM release? You are not going to use it anyway. I can understand for the general mass, but for most people in the XDA, I don't think it's a valid argument.
I would say stick to what you think is best for you. No point in forcing my views and preferences. I have seen people happier with their dumb phones compared to other guys with expensive smart phones.
You need to tell us what experiences you want from a mobile before we can advise one way or the other. I have both so can give you a realistic idea about how each stack up in the areas of importance for your use.
I'm going to be writing a review for the One X for the Telecom Tech blog, and will compare it a lot to the Note, which I already reviewed at my site here (the most comprehensive review on the internet at 17,000 words, well worth reading and a good backdrop to the incoming One X review).
So US Cellular (along with most other networks are getting the S3) and I'm tempted to sign up for the preorder. However, my phone is running pretty stable with ICS, decent batter, ect...
I would love to have LTE, but the biggest turn off is the size of the S3 compared to the Desire. I honestly think the desire is a great size phone and I don't need more screen.
Oh yea and a new S3 would be $200.
Thoughts?

To me, galaxy feels cheap and I have had bad experience with Samsung.
Desire is still a great smartphone, especially when running the miui xj rom! ;-)
I agree. The compared to the rock solid feel of the Desire the S3 does feel pretty cheap and light.
Decisions decisions
Desire is a great phone but a Galaxy S3 per $200 seems like a big deal. And probably you won't care about S3 size by the moment you see that screen on.

If the screen size is really a turn off for you than the S3 really isn't for you, especially with the $200 price tag.
well I'd keep the Desire and wait maybe for the next nexus.
I think that Desire is still great smartphone and it runns ICS quite well, so I don't feel that I need to upgrade. I think I will upgrade only when there is no way to get the latest android
My contract is up on my Desire next week, I've opted for a Galaxy S3 due on Tuesday . Looking forward to it.
Must say though that the Desire has been a great phone and the Galaxy has a lot to live up to
Dudes, when iPhone 5 hits the market, galaxies will be monster cheap. Stay frosty.
I had the Desire on US Cellular and I definitely think you should upgrade to the S3

That was exactly my concern when I signed a new contract last week. I don't get anything out of those new "purse-phones" that are more like a tablet in size than a smartphone.I wanted something equally good built and in somewhat same size as my beloved desire. Let me tell you, the s3 may be a good phone overall, but it feels really cheap compared to the desire and (at least to me) is way to big.
Also the s3 has really bad sound quality when recording videos, which combined with the size was the reason for me to not get it.

That's true, we don't really need a bigger screen then our Desire. But, to surfing and watching video on GS3, it's more confortable then a Desire.
By the way, I don't know if it's a great deal for this time, before the release of the Iphone 5. GS3's price gonna fall !
Seriously, GS3 is a nice phone !
GALAXY S3 specification good
but too expensive now
I have both. Had the desire for 3 years had the S3 for 2 weeks. I really have a liking for sence, touchwiz is different but I'm starting to get used to it.
The biggest difference is the speed (s3 quad core) and the screen on the S3 in simply stunning.
I'm thinking of rooting the desire and installing ics to see how it performs.
I'll never get rid of the desire its still a great phone.

S3 too big, single hand cant use...
I've seen and used the Samsung S3 and HTC One X. They are both huge in comparison to the Desire. One X feels more solid but lacks sd card slot. In the UK the One X is quite a bit cheaper.
If you don't mind having a pocket full of phone and can afford it - these next gen phones are amazing.
I think that S3 is an amazing phone,but in Italy it cost 600+€...too much! Anyway, I love my desire...it win!!!
HTC Desire on the roll!!!!
Wish I was eligible to upgrade to an S3- but I wasted my upgrade on a Hero S this spring. The Desire blew the Hero out of the water but now I can't upgrade until next October...
One thing that I don't like about most new phones is the lack of hardware buttons- I hate having to look at my phone all the time rather than having the tactile input of physical buttons (and you probably use the trackball way more than you even know!)
If I was you I would try a One-X, Samsung phones feel cheap compared to HTC.
Hey people, I am currently an iPhone user and what I do on it is download themes, tweaks, apps. I got tired of using an iPhone and I thought that whatever I do on an iPhone, I can do it a lot better on an android. I was currently looking at other android phones but since there isn't one specific android phone like iPhone, I don't know which one will suit me. My eyes were on the Galaxy Nexus for a while and I have done research on it like reviews and how customization works. I know the Galaxy Nexus came out a year ago and by now new phones came out may have more improved features than the Galaxy Nexus, like the One S or GSIII or the One X. I don't know how custom roms work or kernels and what do they do so if you can explain about it that would be helpful. The sad thing about the Galaxy Nexus is that it only comes with a 16GB model, and I'm not sure if its going to be enough or not.
So my question is that at this time is it worth to get the Galaxy Nexus?
Yes. Unless you want an HTC One X or Samsung Galaxy S3, which are a lot more money.

16gb shouldn't be an issue, lots of cloud services (Google Play Music, Dropbox and Picasa) to take care of that. All are good devices, Galaxy Nexus is the best if you want the quickest updates to ROMs, but generally the wait for Galaxy S3 is only a month more, so compare the hardware, and buy the one that suits you most, since both these devices have lots of developers working on them
Awesome phone, just switched from S2 and its much better. Maybe because its a Google phone so the hardware and software compliment each other. Also the fact that it will get continued software support from Google makes it a smarter buy over many other phone.(Took forever for ICS to land on S2). And not to mention the subsidized price( 350$ now!google promoting android phones). You def wont regret it.
Thanks for your replies, this question also came into mind. Do you guys think I should wait because maybe Google is going to introduce another Nexus device sometime this Fall, probably the new device may be better than the Galaxy Nexus.

Yes I would wait. The fact that in about 5 - 6 months you will have the new Nexus lines out, I would wait. The Galaxy SIII is a sexy phone and based on rumors it will be getting Jellybean soon, but I prefer pure Google.
If you our desperate, get a Nexus S for cheap on ebay that you can use as a throwaway, backup, etc.. type phone but with all goodies of Jellybean.
Thanks for your reply, but when the new Nexus comes out, will the Galaxy Nexus still get the fast android updates like any other Google phone does and will the Galaxy Nexus go up to Android 5.0?

i think its totally worth it, only today i moved from iphone 4s to white galaxy nexus, i was totally impressed with jelly bean 4.1.1 , and i would strongly recommend to consider nexus as primary choice
So I was an iphone user myself until recently, I got an HTC One X and it is an amazing phone, the screen and speed are great, made me love android... however I found the battery life to be awful. When Jellybean came out I found myself wanting to try it and so replaced my One X with a Galaxy Nexus, and I think it has much more advantages. Firstly the battery seems to last longer, and you can buy a replacement spare. The Jelly Bean OS is perfect and all other features match the One X. The only thing that doesnt is the camera in true specs but I find its hard to discern any difference for day to day snaps.

Thank you all for replying, has anyone used a Sony Xperia S, just curious how different it works with HTC and Samsung.
Dont get it. A mate has it and is selling suffers from yellow splotches on the screen and a locked bootloader
Can anyone tell me how custom roms and kernels work and what not to do to mess up the phone. Also is there a way to restore a galaxy nexus back to factory state, as if you got the phone brand new.
You want to know how custom roms work together or you just want to know how they improve the experience?
To answer your second question, yes you can put it back to factory settings.

I've come to think that 16gb may not be enough for me, I had an iPhone 4 16gb and got so many games, movies, music, etc. that I was left with 4gb and my phone became slow. I don't have a data plan so I can listen to music on Google Play while im out. I was wondering if the GSM Galaxy Nexus makes a difference between the CDMA Galaxy Nexus. If it doesn't make a difference with hardware because I saw many people on different forums that have problems with CDMA Galaxy Nexus and I want to get it because it is available in a 32gb model and they are world phones so it has a sim card slot but I'm not sure if it would work with T-Mobile.
CDMA galaxy nexus will not work on T-Mobile. Also there isn't a difference in hard wise between CDMA and GSM but CDMA takes much longer to get updates while GSM is almost instantly.

Considering the source and the need for yet another one of these threads, and after careful deliberation between the two offered choices, I have no other recourse but to disclose to you my final decision.
iPhone 5 ...
iPhone 4 if the price is a bit out of reach.
this is like asking a sales car person at the bmw dealership which car is worth buying, a bmw or a benz
Just a warning if you are considering the AT&T HTC One X the newest update 2.20 is not yet rootable. This isn't a problem for the international or Canadian version though.

Thank you so much, really appreciated
HTC One X has more human touch
As of my experience HTC One X has more human touch in its user interface (Sense 4). Polished look of Sense is a key advantage over Samsung Galaxy SIII. I mean, look at Sense widgets - time, music, settings, gallery, calendar - they are great looking. If you look at SGSIII TouchWiz interface and widgets - it looks like they were designed by techy people, not designers.
In terms of device design SGSIII has an advantage - a genuine Samsung leather hard flip cover, available at most stores. It replaces your standard back cover in a fancy colorful way. HTC also has a similar solution, but it makes One X looks a little beefy.
Regarding ROMs - it is pretty easy to install custom ROM on One X. There are plenty of Recoginzed developers who is trying to improve our devices on a daily basis in their ROMs (ARHD, InsertCoin, MaXimus, LeeDroid...).
As for me, I chosen One X because of its UI design, camera and ARHD ROM.
Hope this helps.

Considering the source and the need for yet another one of these threads, and after careful deliberation between the two offered choices, I have no other recourse but to disclose to you my final decision.
iPhone 5 ...
iPhone 4 if the price is a bit out of reach.

Cant you read? The choice was HOX or SGS3. Ahhh the trolls. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
If you want tegra enhancements then go for hox (wait for the one x +). If you want amazing audio go for the s3 (wolfson DAC). That's pretty much it. Oh and sense is brilliant vs touchwiz that is just plain dull.

Don't forget HOX is Playstation Mobile certified as well.
thank you all
one x of course in my opinion but i have used both an it really depends on what you want it for
one thing I hate from S3 is the plastic look, turn off

If I'm honest, the only difference between the S3 and HOX is a few slight differences such as screen.
THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE IN MY OPINION IS THE DESIGN !
If you want a very expensive pebble, get the S3
If you want the Rihanna of phones, get the HOX its beautiful !

I wouldn't consider screen differentials as slight differences.
To me, the screen is the most important feature of any large touchscreen phone.
And the HOX screen is 'Much better' than what Samsung offer on the GS3.

But if you want a phone to flash a lot of roms and stuff and nearly impossible to brick.. Go for s3. Personally i don't need any rom on my hox it feels better then custom s3
