So, as the title suggests i would like to know how many of you are thinking of buying the new Desire S.
I have a DHD now but i don't like it as much as i liked th Desire so i'm thinking of buying the S one.
Hope it will be as fun as the old classic Desire...
No
Desire was the best mobile phone last year at that time, Desire S is only avarage today. I will replace Desire with probably Galaxy S2.
Desire S is just a replacement, not an upgrade so I am not going to waste money on just a little more space and a little better stuff. Dual or even quad will be my next phone in a years time.
I'm just hoping HTC will bring out an NFC phone in time for my next upgrade, otherwise I don't know which manufacturer I might have to turn to. I still want an android but don't want to give up Sense.
HTC Desire S is a nice phone but not an upgrade to Desire , it's just for older phone owners.
I don't think I will ever buy a Samsung. Unless they keep monoploizing the amoled supply.

No. It only have 256 mb of ram more, some internal and newer snapdragon. I don't know why HTC doesn't have any dual core cpu.
And I prefer trackball + physical buttons, not the capacitive ones.
Motorola Atrix looks intresting, but probably it will be hard to hack.
I will wait probably to 2012, Desire is now perfect for me.

I think that trackpad is awesome on the Desire and should be kept on ALL HTC phones. I don't like how they have gotten around the problem by adding arrows to the keyboard. It just uses up screen space which sucks. WTB trackpad please
No, definetly not.
I love my Desire, best phone I've ever had. There's too little differences between the phones that would make a difference in choice.

which i think doesnt really matter, since you have as2d+, data2ext and all that stuff.
i love my desire
I am not ready to change yet. My Desire still dos everything that I ask of it (and more) and whilst the low memory affects me more than I would like for now there is nothing out there to tempt me.
But I think it is fair to say that my next phone won't automatically be another HTC.
One thing I have learnt with the Desire it that Android is Android and the current software setup I have and screen layout cold be achieved on ANY Android device.
So the whole HTC Sense thing (which on my previous Winmo HTC phones was essential) adds little value for me on Android.
So a naked Nexus type device would be tempting keeping me bang up to date but with full control but not just yet.
Nope just got my desire and not ready to change but to be honest i see the s as the way the original desire should have been ie more Space . Hopefully when it's time for me to upgrade there will be something worth saying i upgraded to out but if it's one of these honestly i think i would just end up flogging it on ebay lol
No go for me either.
I'm very satisfied with my old Desire (tweaked it a lot though).
I'm getting the LG Optimus 2x soon to play with.
But I'm keeping both phones.

hey
I wanted to ask you why do you like the classic htc desire (bravo) more than the desire hd? I have the classic desire with a amoled screen and I actually want to sell it and buy me a DHD but now you are saying that the desire classic is better I don't know what to do anymore so can you tell me why it is better to stick with the classic one? thnx in advance
Absolutely not. I had to go through so much trouble just to get some free memory while Samsung and others are delivering 16 Gb of internal memory. I think HTC is cheap and is missing the point. Of course I have rooted and ext2 but still...

If you look at the HTC Desire specs and the Desire S specs there's not much which is different. Just some memory added and a front facing camera.
We know the Desire S comes with Gingerbread but the normal Desire will be getting it soon too.
Desire has been around for around 1 Year and till today it is one of the top phones.Me,personally wouldn't go for the Desire S but it's personal choice at the end of the day.
I've heard good things about the Galaxy S 2,being the thinnest smartphone with a Dual Core Processor .
There needs to be something revolutionary introduced on the phone market for me to switch from my Desire
No way am I getting Desire S. I don't think HTC intended to entice the Desire users with Desire S. I have a funny feeling HTC has an upgrade-worthy phone but decided not to show it at the convention.

That would be the rumoured 'Pyramid' then.
So, for almost a year now, I have HTC Desire and for about 6 months run Desire HD rom on it...
Just wondering what will be the best replacement to it in upcoming summer.
From what I saw, nothing really worth to replace for but was I wrong ?
And it need to be GSM... any suggestions will be great.
Thanks
Lior
I think Desire S is a good option
Sensation is worth it desire s is basically the desire with software we've ported and is as fast on data++
I would wait for one of the new dual core phones. Sounds like there are going to be some badass ones coming out in the last half of 2011.
for me:
dual core,
tegra or better
4.3" or bigger screen (desire is too small for me)
the important ones:
must be rootable and have community support like the desire. can't rely on carriers/manuf to upgrade phone
wait for sensation or evo 3d gsm
these are the future because desire/incredible S
came out at a wrong time they won't be upgradeable to sense 3.0 unless by ports thus, their updates will be very limited like our official gingerbread update we're still on sense 1.9 :'(
but i'm running an S rom
and i know these will be my replacement phones

HTC sensation or Evo 3d fits your bill perfectly

Definetely going for the Sensation!
I will get SGS2. I think Samsung did better job than HTC this year - better hardware in a smaller package.
Thank you all. I think too that desire S is not a proper replacement because it didn't really bring any upgrades so I wait a little bit more.
Not interested in other manufactures since I really like htc.

in november? i'd imagine that there would be something better out by then.
1080p recording would be decent too and i kinda like the way LG is going
The HTC rep gave me a seek preview of the sensation yesterday at the gadget show and it is sensational, it was a pre release and had an lcd screen instead of the super LED that will be fitted, it also had some pre release software but was super quick with the dual core.
That is my next phone after the desire

I'd get the HTC Sensation or a variant of it. Once it comes out, it will be the only real upgrade from HTC that we know of, all other phones are kind of on the same level.
That of course, if you want to stay with HTC.
After I saw it's specs, it is lead replacement for me for now.

Same here! My new phone MUST have at least these features
I'd go for the Sensation if i had to, but actually i think i'll wait till the first 2ghz dual-core hits the floor
Why on earth would you want to replace a perfect phone?!
I really wanted to get an Incredible S its a nice size and a nice looking device. But it like the Desire S seems to have lost the HTC DNA with the bootloader now being signed and it being hard to crack. Its out for 2 months and still not rooted. Desire is still better than these devices IMO. Same might be story for sensation
Hi, I have possibility to change from Samsung Galaxy S2 to HTC One X... I like CM9 on SGS2... So my question is: will One X have official CM release? I know it's hard to tell, but please post yout guesses (for example Sensation doesn't have official CM).
We have a lot of talended Developers now at One X. I'm pretty sure we'll get CM9 offically or unoffically.
So you think it's good choice to switch from SGS2 to One X?

IMO One X is lot better than SGS2. We have already developers started on One X ROM. More developers are getting One X AFAIK. It's gonna be a fun ride with One X.
The jellybean update for our HTC One X is supposedly to be rolled out in October says HTC when they announced the One X+. The new version is dubbed Sense 4.0+ not sense 4.5. Hmm I wonder the difference from our leaked sense 4 jellybean.

Press released by HTC
HTC INTRODUCES THE HTC ONE™ X+.
MORE SPEED, MORE STORAGE AND MORE BATTERY LIFE
MAKE HTC'S BEST RATED ANDROID PHONE, EVEN BETTER
HTC also announces SenseTM 4+ with Android Jelly Bean upgrades for
HTC One X and HTC One S coming soon
TAIPEI - 2ND OCTOBER, 2012 - HTC, a global leader in mobile innovation and design, today unveiled the HTC One™ X+, a refreshed version of its award winning HTC One™ X smartphone, running the HTC SenseTM 4+ experience on Android™ Jelly Bean. The HTC One™ X+ combines the iconic design, amazing camera and authentic audio experience of the HTC One series, with increased performance, longer battery life and expanded internal storage.
"We are taking the HTC One™ X to a new level with the introduction of the new HTC One™ X+," said Peter Chou, CEO of HTC Corporation. "Our customers will have super-fast browsing, an even better camera and more immersive entertainment with Beats Audio."
Performance, Endurance and Storage
Featuring a 1.7 GHz quad-core NVIDIA® Tegra® 3 AP37 processor and 64GB of internal storage, the HTC One™ X+ LTE version is up to 67% faster than the HTC One™ X1 LTE, making the HTC One™ X+ the best rated Android phone on the market. Developed to be lightning fast, the HTC One™ X+ enables quicker web browsing, fluid gaming and graphic rendering, and speedy downloads, providing effortless usage on the go.
In addition to its increased performance speeds, the HTC One™ X+ introduces extended performance with the inclusion of a 2100 mAh battery, giving you up to 50% (6 hours) more talk time, and longer to browse the web and enjoy your favorite music and videos2.
Imaging, Music and Movies
Combining the amazing camera capabilities of its predecessor3* with a series of intelligent features, powered by SenseTM 4+, the HTC One™ X+ has been designed to deliver the most premium mobile experience. The newly launched Self Portrait mode on the front camera helps you capture high quality photos by intuitively detecting the human face at various angles and applying subtle enhancements to skin and eyes. Sightseeing mode makes sure you'll always be ready to capture the moment - one touch of the power button bypasses the lock screen and launches directly into the camera. Two new views in Gallery display images and videos and group them according to where and when they were taken.
Exclusively available on HTC smartphones, Beats AudioTM provides authentic, studio-quality sound that delivers the most immersive sound experience with an enhanced audio profile, crisper vocals and detailed high notes for your music, games, movies and videos. Making it easier to listen to music out loud, and through SenseTM 4+, the HTC One™ X+ introduces a new Tap and Go function, which allows you to connect the phone and your music to Beats speakers'4 when you tap them. To disconnect, it is just another quick tap.
Providing exclusive access to thousands of movies through HTC Watch 2.0, the HTC One™ X+ will appeal to both the avid film fan and the casual movie-goer. Combined with the introduction of video hub, another benefit of SenseTM 4+, for the first time you will be able to put all your video entertainment in a single place.
Easy Set Up
A new feature in the HTC One™ X+ is HTC Get Started, a new web service that guides the user painlessly through the set-up and personalisation process from a desktop web browser. Designed to enhance the experience of setting up a phone for the first time, this feature ensures that users will get the most out of their new phone from the beginning. With the touch of a button, users' phone will reflect the settings and apps that were chosen on the Web. Visit start.htc.com for more details.
Availability
The HTC One™ X+ will be available in Europe and North Asia from October and in South Asia from November 2012. North America will make a separate announcement regarding availability of the HTC One™ X+. The Android Jelly Bean with HTC™ Sense 4+ update is scheduled to begin rolling out for the HTC One™ S and HTC One™ X from October.
some ppl realy dont understand the meaning of the word sarcasm...
FFS why O'why the 0.2 GB update?
Pointless much?! It's only so that HTC can say:
The HTC One™ X+ LTE version is up to 67% faster than the HTC One™ X1 LTE, making the HTC One™ X+ the best rated Android phone on the market.

Woah. Look at this HTC one x hands on video by engadget.
At 2:20, the HTC guy tries to show Google now... on his own HTC One X (no red accents, no AT&T logo).
So Sense 4+ is already circulating internally and looks ready to go!

Maybe HTC decide to change the name to suit the new One X+ so they put Sense 4+. Nothing new. It still Sense 4.5 to us.
