It's not that big. To be fare i think it's just right for a high end device, the looks and size of it just shows how good it is!
When friends and family get there little phones out, I just do my evil laugh and slap mine down on the table!

If your going to do it check it for defects first as there maybe a reason behind why he wants rid of it

if u want uncomplicated device with easy to use user interface..keep ur iphone. in addition apps on iphone are better & plenty to choosefrom.
if u like customisation go for htc one x. this device has very beautiful screen n fast too..very good for web browsing.

The fact that the screen is 4.7" compared to an iPhone's 3.5" makes it sound pretty huge, but if you put them side by side, the HOX isn't actually all that much larger physically. It has very minimal space on the front of the device that is not taken up by the screen, much less than the iPhone, which is how it manages such a large display without actually being colossal.

That´s the Fact! Grab the One X and be free
I estimate once u get used to the HOX and its options, you wont touch an iPhone anymore.

@stu_tls something special i need to look for ?
@joewong1991 why isn't it that great ?
thanks to all... picking it up tomorrow around 12:30, getting excited.
1 thing i remember from seeing in 1 review, where the battery indicator is 20% orso off, is that resolved since the dude said must be a software issue, maybe just with the review models ?
thanks.

HOX > Iphone 4s I have both.

Don't even think about it. Just trade! It's a wonderful phone and the developers really love cooking for the device. The screen is wonderful. So much more fun to play with.
So come over to the android side

The problem with asking on a forum like this is the majority of the time you'll get a biased answer - of course we'll all say take the One X!
All I can suggest is go to a store and check out the size of the One X. If it's not an issue then go for it. The screen is right up there with the Retina Display (and miles better than the SGS3) and bar slightly sub-par battery life compared to the iPhone you'll enjoy every minute with Android. Personally, I'd say go for it but I would do the research first before jumping in

Grab it and run man! The HOX is better in every way. My wife was using the 4s until I got my One X. 1 week of playing with my phone, we are a 2 Android family now. haha.

Thinking of selling iPhone 4S for HTC One X

Hello Everyone,
I would like to say that I was 100% sure that I was going to sell my iPhone 4S for the HTC One X until I came to the forum and saw some of the negative posts about it. Now I have owned Android phones before (S2, other HTCs etc.) and the first thing I will be doing is unlocking the bootloader and flashing roms on it. From what I have read here is that there were some issues at first but updates have been released and most of those issues are gone? Would you guys recommend me getting it considering the S3 will be announced soon? Mind you I am a fan of HTC Sense and now that CM9 is being released I cannot see what the S3 can offer over the One X...
Back to the point have all the issues from launch been solved and you guys would recommend it?
Thanks for the help .
I've recently started properly using this forum mainly because I have just got a One X and have the flickering issues. There is absolutely no definite indication at all that flickering issues have been resolved for starters. Nothing yet to indicate that it can be fixed by firmware or not. I'm considering returning mine and waiting a few months and getting a One X again only after that period. It's a great phone, but you might want to let the teething issues get out of the way first, that's all.
Remember that not every phone has issues... Only those that have issues complain, rare for people to join a forum just to say they are happy.
Take a look at iPhone forums.... Read through posts there of issues.... Would that put you off getting an iPhone?
Just to say, my handset is fault free as was my first other than the low signal issue . I took the first one back purely cos it was branded and was too impatient to wait for three to release the latest update that addressed the signal issue.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
I really do not know what to do because I will be buying it from a person in a local deal so I cannot return it or exchange it at a store... You guys are saying the screen flickering issues is actually hardware and not software?
i haven't experienced any issues with my one x. mine is unbranded sim free. picked it up off ebay brand new. screen never flickers, although i have seen some people talking about this.
Screen flickering issues aren't as widespread as the forum posts would indicate. People who have problems shout the loudest.
I'd go for it, worst case scenario and it flickers just get HTC to send you a replacement.
I've been an iPhone guy for a while and have tried multiple android devices. The One X is my favourite so far vs my 4S. Mind you mine is the LTE version. My biggest gripe is the WiFi issues but I think should be fixable via updates.

I'm still waiting to get my HTC one x. How is it? I'm chompping at the bits for it.
What wifi issues you experience?
I got a free one x and have my 4s on craigslist.
This phone has some nuances (quad core gets hot baby), but the screen still gets me every time even on dim. I'm in love with android as I had only owned iPhones till now.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Also no issues here, as they said above,it's the people with the faults that shout loudest, it's exactly the same when buying a new tv etc, people leave bad comments who have the worst trouble it's common sense as I'd never go on a site after buying something am happy with and splash my gratitude at the product, but on other hand if I was having trouble I'd love to get on the site and slate the product am having trouble with... Anyways back to reality, I'd recommend the one x over 4s any day but it's all down to you whether you want to chance getting a faulty one x !

I love iOS and still do. I miss my iPhone 4S and I loved my GSII. Anyways, the One X is a really good phone if you can see past the dismal battery life. That's the only thing bugging me but hopefully in time it should get better with updates. GSII is still the best android phone for me. Would I say buy this? Yeah I would its a lovely phone, and as much as I love the iPhone, the screen is too small. Wait and see what the GSIII offers first. If you can't wait then you won't go far wrong with the One X.

Yeah I am meeting someone and selling my iPhone tonight... Unfortunately for Canada it seems that we will be getting a dual core version because LTE does not support quadcores... I might just wait another day and see what is revealed about the S3. Personally I hate the iPhone, screen is too small the software is outdated things take much longer to do than Android... The only good thing about the iPhone are the apps and thats it.
S3 won't be quad core either in the Canada.
I love my One X
I have decided to buy the One X but I am undecided if it should be white or the glamour tray hmm...

The grey / black One X seems to show up scuff marks more than the White version from what I've seen posted on here. Personally, I'd go for the white version.

Grey! White is for iPhones! Although, I will admit.. if I were to ever get a white phone, this would be it.
I was a long time iphone owner, but when i saw htc one x white one i just sold iphone 4 and bought one x. Screen ,performance plus android 4.0.3, its extremly fast it blows my acer iconia a500 away. Only thing that needs to be improved is battery life, its good for talking but big screen eats battery very fast usually i get two days of usage with screen on 3hours

Why we love the HTC One X!

As I read through the daily posts in the One X forum I'm increasingly finding more and more people needlessly moaning about all aspects off the One X and about HTC and that's fine I guess, people have issues and want to get that out in the open and get some feedback
but I think with all this negative feedback we who love our One X and HTC need to voice that and balance out the pros and cons debate!....
So this thread is for you to tell the rest of the world why you love and enjoy your One X & HTC so much!
Please don't turn this into a thread full of silly and pointless arguments
well we had threads like this
and i'm already the emabassador for the One X so i don't need to repeat myself lol
perhaps you should start
I remember the first time I saw the HTC Desire HD and I just couldn’t believe what a fantastic phone it was! everything about it was beautiful! ...and then came the One X and I new I just had to have one!!
What a phone! HTC made me feel that magic feeling all over again! It looks absolutely fantastic! the shape, the screen size, the colours, sense 4 and not forgetting it’s the worlds first HTC quad core phone! wtf QUAD CORE!?!! I went for the white version, I’ve never had a white phone before but white was created for the One X! there simply perfect together! ...these are just some of the things I like about the One X but I what do you like about it!?

this is lame..
with samsung dominating the market, their phones becoming easier and easier to root and custom rommed..
last time it used to be odin, now there's cwm touch for samsung phones and also hardware hacks that are influenced by software. even modems on samsung phones are flashable.
im giving htc one last chance, unveil a godly tegra 4 phone with superb camera (better or on par with samsung) and also NO wifi pin problems or anything similar. htc better keep their game up, or im going to jump ship too.
software problems are fine because they can be fixed. but hardware as terrible as the wifi pins problem on the hox? no.
if that happens again, i will definitely jump ship
edit : 1 week after the hox came out, the RRP for it was RM 2099. 2 weeks later, it's RM 1899. today, a 1 week old set costs a thriffling rm 1399 and a new set costs another thriffling rm 1649. the s3 stood strong at rm 1999 today and the RRP was 2199

Did you even read the topic of this thread? it's for people you like/love/enjoy there One X
One word: screen. Compared with the ridiculous pentile AMOLED s#it, the HOX's screen looks gorgeous. Sure if you have never seen it, you might think that a 4.7" 720p screen will not suffer from the pentile matrix, but when you look at them side by side, the difference is huge. And when you add the more accurate colors, the CPU which has games optimized for it, the comming of the cheap Tegra3 console which will drive more developers to optimize their games for it, the overall look and feel of the phone (I hate shiny plastic stuff) and you get a device which is truly a marvelous piece of technology.

All three issues already fixed in latest batches and software
Ill donate to have you away to the sgs3
+1
I like HTC because they are already working on jelly bean, that is the main factor of owning awesome smartphone - the updates, samsung lost this battle hard when they couldn't or didn't want to update galaxy s anymore - which is very nice powerful phone even today, probably wouldn't buy One X if they went the other way.
+2
I have not seen One X screen before i bought it, now i cant imagine more perfect screen quality, nothing can beat that.
+3
Just android and google experience, I wouldn't even look at One X if it had like windows phone rubbish, there are differences in companies strategy, Google gives me youtube, android system, mail account, search and maps FOR FREE, Microsoft is completely opposite, its not user friendly - just watch how bad METRO is for desktop and how many ppl complain - they are not listening.

Latest batches ? Am I suppose to look for serial numbers or HTC recall the messed up batches and fix them ? cause its a shame to have exchange 4 hoxes and none of them worth the money I paid for ,none of them feel like a quadcore ,all of them have had faults, repair centers a mess .......
I have had other android phones. Even though I love android over iOS, I never had a phone feel more sophisticated in hand over the iPhone. The HOX is the best phone I've ever had. It feels better in my hand over the iphone for sure! (without a case obviously)
My HOX is better than the IPhone because of the big beautiful screen! Just love playing movies, games and surfing the internet on it!
And of cause the mighty Tegra 3
To the people who are complaining: why do you keep *****ing over your stupid problems in a thread where the OP so clearly states that it is a positive thread ment for encouragement. Take your selfpity to one of the many threads that is meant for whining.

Obviously you're unhappy. Either take it up with HTC or move on. Either way I see little reason for you to keep behaving like a brat here.
I just don't get why people that are unhappy with a device and know they will never be happy with it, insist on punishing themselves instead of growing a pair and growing up.
My HTC One X rocks. I don't twist it like a frisbee so I haven't found this magical 'twisting' that some folks have whined about.
The screen is awesome. No yellow tint or dots. If I had found either I would not have bought it (Or for the slow people SEND IT BACK.)
Very snappy. I haven't rooted or flashed it, but it sounds like half the complainers may have had a bad flash or flashed the wrong version and are now pooping fireworks because they effed up their phone.

htc cutting their smartphones prices????!!!

wtf is that right htc cutting their phone prices because off the losses? i just bought the one x 2 monthes ago for about 600$ in asia! really stunned !
No idea if this is true but it makes sense, they are competing with alot of new phones at the moment (and coming up, like the iPhone 5) and yes bad economical times too for HTC, to keep up with the competition > lower prices.

If you read the source story the liklihood of it being true are slim. Since when does a site called "mydrivers" suddenly become credible? The bad press and rumor mongering are going to hurt HTC more than anything they do at their own hand.

Even of it's true so what? You already bought the phone and I don't know about you but I think I am gonna use the phone for a while and judging by how android phones have been sooner or later the price is gonna go down anyway because there will be newer phones with better specs sold for the same price we bought our phones awhile ago.

You hate the screen which takes 90% of the phone, hate touchwiz, which defines the way you interact with the phone but still think S3 is better... that makes sense. Or at least explains why you trust that source.
Let's get real. If there are some price cuts they will be for the Chinese version (HTC did say they will bet on the Asian market) which means locked bootloaders, internet limited to the Chinese version and all the other goodies the Chinese will make HTC include in the phone. Thanks, but no thanks!

They can sell them for what they want. It's an electronic gadget, they always always drop in price over time. Who in their right mind would be a) surprised & b) angry over this?

I don't understand why anyone would expect them not to cut the price. When I got my hTC Desire, it had to be on a £36+/month contract to be free. Just 6 months later, it was on £20 contracts and the One X is going that way. All phones do, they're never 'current' for very long, it's just something you have to accept when buying electronics these days. Next year, all the midrange phones will have quad core CPUs and HD screens, the the year after, a £99 network operator-rebranded ZTE will. It's a _good_ thing. Don't complain about being an early adopter, it's your choice to make.
Ask yourself this: While you may be able to purchase the phone, or an equivalent phone for less money now, surely you couldn't at the time you bought it? Are you not happy you've been able to use it until now?

Ask yourself this: While you may be able to purchase the phone, or an equivalent phone for less money now, surely you couldn't at the time you bought it? Are you not happy you've been able to use it until now?

when it was first launched, in UAE it was like DHS 2750 and after a month its DHS 2500 and stayed like that for 3 more months, now its around DHS 2300-2400. Thats normal for every phone i've got and even the s3 is around the same price now as well.

Yea banging my head, no one in his right mind would switch from the One X to the iPhone 5
Screen is our equal but we have better blacks and bigger
Cameras are match but we have the fast burst mode and super HDR, i5 wins in extreme macro and video recording but has the purple haze issue
We actually win the build quality area due to their super fragile thin paint
Battery is better iPhone on during average use, half an hour difference in heavy gaming
Current iOS on the i5 have many bugs like our early firmware
Finally the x2 will come in February and we have a much better value for money especially considering storage
U want to try iOS go for the new iPad4, will cost u half lol

Many haven't u followed the Mega thread I reviewed the i5 few times, my colleague has it and he is super iFanatic and yet can't dare to bash my one x because he admits how awesome it is
I showed him how dizzy fast the one x can open apps n multitask we agreed to call it nucleofast
Really they only have the GPU going for them, if ur interested in iOS the new iPad is much more impressive
The battery life on mine is worse than my one x

It's like religion. If you ask your current religion if you should stay you'll get a resounding "yes" along with a million reasons as to why. If you ask the religion you are considering moving to if you should convert you'll get a resounding "yes" with a million reasons as to why. It's your religion, you pick.
You really can’t go wrong with Apple. They’re great products but with more confinement, more expensive content, and less flexibility. When my non-technical friends ask me what they should buy I hand them my phone or tablet and watch them try to figure it out. If after a minute they’re still staring at the device blankly I tell them to go Apple.

dont ruin it barryyyyyy
well i'm contemplating the new iPad myself, if i want to spend that money i rather buy the iPad and keep my One X
so no my advice was not zealous
my wife recently traveled abroad and staying there for a while, i started relying on my N7 for video/voice calls with her and then it hit me, no apple product will ever match android multitasking especially on a quad core processor
i would be talking with my wife, sending her files, browsing and downloading apps all in the same time effortlessly moving between them, i dont think iOS will ever get there
whats more important is how easy it is to handle it with one hand and use it
its funny but more n more i realize the Nexus 7 in particular is Google's hardware masterpiece, i can clearly tell you its the only Nexus they ever released with enough personality
my point is im interested retry iOS myself with the iPad but man i can't let go of freedom

You have 14 days to return an apple product so you could get the iPad 4 and return it if you dislike it.
No selling outside the marketplace please

[Q] How old is your HOX, when will you buy a new phone & why?

The title says it all.
My HOX is 6 months old and I plan to buy a new phone in 1.5 years. The reason for that is the fact that I'll be buying my first tablet this year It's definitely going to be a Windows 8 ( Not RT!) tablet, and those are kind of pricy. If I had the money to upgrade my phone too, I think I would wait anyway.
My HOX is pretty good or the stuff I use it for, and saying that you NEED (not want) an upgrade from a quad-core 1.5ghz 6 months old phone is just silly.
What do you think?
PS. Please write which phone you plan to buy next
Felt cheated with the sudden announcement of X+ now happy with my note 2!
htc history
Knowing HTC, I will wait for a device that launches later in the year. Gives them more time to "fix" any "disappointments" that usually come with their initial offerings. Considered Butterfly, but the improvements are negligible for my needs. In America, it will probably be relaunched as DNA PLUS EXTRA CHROMOSOMES.

I truly think a 5 inch phone is too big.
I am 6" 2 with hands to match and i can barely operate my ONE x with a single hand.
If i do buy a new phone, it sure as hell wont be more than 4.7 inches.
So i would probably hold out until such a phone comes out to my specifications
Well my HOX is 9 months old. I will plan to buy a replacement when there is a new HTC device with big improvement and specs. Like when I had my HTC Desire, I changed phone only when HOX launched (big improvements in term of specs).

Agreed. You should buy a phone which will actually feel a lot better.

Yea, I think that I could go to 4.8 and that's it. Especially with Android because you have to alternate between the top (notifications, toggles) and bottom (buttons) all the time.

Thats true.

Thank htc its a sturdy phone.

I mean ... doesnt it look foolish when u hold a huge phone up against your ear shouting "HELLo, HELLOOOO "|

Well, you get some pretty funky sights in this part of the world, with people holding their iPads to their ear to make a call. Rowan Atkinson once said a banana isn't funny until you enlarge it.
Mine is almost 8 months old, still happy with it.
I'm gonna wait with buying a new phone untill I bought my first car this year (turning 18 ), and I know that a BMW will be damn pricy

Wow dude, you are an expensive offspring did you earn the cash yourself or will it be a gift from your parents? I'm turning 18 in a few months too, but I'm gonna get like 150€ from my parents, and I think that that's really a lot anyway, I'm OT-ing in my own thread...

My hox is from April 2012......i am intending to keep it for 2 years, my HTC desire also survived 2.4 years so i think i can manage. Or there has to be a new top notch phone brought on the market !
Greetings
Mr Hofs
My hox is 6 months old. I replaced it with a note 2, 3 months ago. Haha. Still kept the hox as an mp3 player.
I find the note 2 easy one handed. Im 5ft 4 and can type one handed and reach every corner except the top left

I'm waiting for the phone calls to start......due my upgrade in 6 days, be funny to see what Vodafone/Dialaphone offer me as an "upgrade"!!
I may just let the contract run the 12 months then take a sim only deal for a while until something decent comes out. Or may even just grab another phone to sell on

I can't reach the top left corner of my HOX and I have pretty big hands. But I'm using it with a case, the case adds a but more bulk.

I've had my phone since the first day I could get my hands on it.
I'm likely to buy the next one the first day I can get my hands on it.
I like the size of this, so it'll be something similar but based on quad Cortex A15. Looks like it'll be full HD, although I'm not sure I'll be able to tell the difference.
Really what I want is a desktop monitor with much greater PPI (that doesn't cost the earth), how does it make sense for a 4.7" display to have the same resolution as a 24" display?
