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 ditched my note for the one x. It's a no brainer.

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.

Honestly would current One X user swap for a S3?

Thinking of upgrading my sensation XE to either a One X or a Samsung S3. I've read lots about each, I'm in UK btw.
So any current owners of One X...
do you wish you had waited,
or are you going to swap to a S3,
or happy with One X over S3,
or would rather have an S3 but now in contract?
Cheers

Nope happy with one x its all about sense for me. And one x also looks better plus has better camera.

HTC 1X. Using since 6th April. Awesome device. I would never swap an HTC phone for cheap looking Samsung. HTC is premium.

If by the time the SIII comes out, HTC still hasn't fixed up the One X software, I might very well jump ship. That is of course if the SIII has fewer bugs. I have no loyalty to HTC and I'm really pissed off at their locked bootloaders.

Yes in a heartbeat

You can't really judge the SIII camera until it comes out. Remember how amazing the One X camera was supposed to be, but when we got the handsets it proved to be a very average camera (only with quick shooting).

Only reason I would swap it is for battery life, otherwise I love the One X

No chance of swapping.

Is sense that much different to TWiz? It's my 1st Android, an XE, and never used TW.
Is the camera that much better than S3? They both seem to have same specs?

Is this the battery bugs I've read about? Reason I'm leaning more toward S3 is spare battery and the bugs I'm hearing.

Can I ask specifics please? Is it because of bugs, or extra features on S3? Removable battery and SD?
Cheers

Keep the One X and will buy the S3 when price goes down.
Love the One X but also love the S3 (memory card slot, removable battery, and GLONASS)

Yes! I will, selling my HTC One X at the moment on eBay!
Reason, I don't think it looks ugly (Galaxy S3) but that is my personal preference although the One X looks better, I always use a case anyways.
The Camera is better on the Galaxy S3 with good lightning condition, more contrast and sharper (GSMarena), but HTC One X in low light kills the Galaxy.
Never been a fan of Sense anyways, love touchwiz! (Personal Preference).
And it should produce less heat, due to the 32nm
P.S Why did you get the HTC One X? Because of the Camera and Looks, plus I got it cheaper than retail stores.

Potentially, I'd have to have a good few days with the SGS3 to properly test it out though. I love my One X though, so it's unlikely

Not worth an upgrade if you ask me, nothing really is that much better besides software.

Not true at all. One X's camera is not that good, it is overhyped.
My HTC Incredible S took much better pictures than my One X (and I had 3 X's).
I gave up after my 3rd HOX, as much as I love sense, this is not how premium hardware should be. And even if you have a good one, I couldn't live with the knowlegde that the chance of defects later in the run are very big. I was an HTC fanboy and even I have to admit HTC ruined the One X.
Looking at movies of the S3, I'm starting to find touchwiz less ugly. Sense is thé android experience, it is a real shame
So yes I'm waiting for the S3 to come out so I can take a look at the pentile matrix display. If the pixels are good, I'm going for S3. Shame because I really liked the HOX, but HTC can't seem to get their act together in new batches.

I made a topic about this literally a few days ago - and decided that I would in fact be sticking with the One X.

I am happy with my One X nor need to Swap for S3 features are almost same.

The One X's camera is absolutely fantastic, I've never owned a phone that can take such good photo's. Videos are terrible on the other hand, but the camera does an awesome job for me at least!
Another thing to note is I've read a few reviews where they say the SGS3's screen is indistinguishable from the Galaxy Nexus' which would make the One X's display miles better.
Although many other reviews say otherwise so I'm not sure who to believe any more

Happy with my OneX. S3 design not amazing at all

Honestly, read the rules for general...

Need help to decide: Galaxy Note or HTC One X

Hi guys,
I really need your help to decide on whether or not I should trade my Galaxy Note for the HTC One X. I currently have the international version of the Note but since last week I have been hating it for the following reasons:
1) I installed ICS update on it and it's really garbage. The Touchwiz skin really makes ICS update not apparent at all.
2) Buggy official ROM. As you might be aware, there is a currently superbrick bug on the Galaxy Note even for official ROM. The phone will be bricked permanently after a wipe in CWM. The one to be blamed for this is of course Samsung.
Because of these bad supports, I am kinda leaning toward trading in my Notes for the One X. However, I heard some bad points about the One X too such as bad battery life, bad multitasking (especially since last update) and being too hot and got throttled down.
Can you guys share your opinions on this ? I tried the One X out at the store and I quite like the feels of holding the One X. Just try to look for some advice before I decide.
Thanks and cheers for your help,

Well I traded my note for a one x and I'm so glad I did while I was impressed by the note the one x is such a beautiful phone
Yes the battery life isn't as great but what phone these days has a battery that will last forever lol
Nevertheless HTC are bringing updates out quite frequently so I expect this phone to improve in areas that people are complaining about I haven't had any problems so can't comment

HTC One X why pay $200 extra for basically the same thing that next year will be out of date anyways. Plus the One X rocks! Use the search their are plenty of comparisons.
I have both Galaxy Note and One X I love the One X display compared to the note it really is an amazing looking screen the apps and widgets just sit on top like their floating on water and phones all around design is killer. Everyone that has saw it has been amazed. I can't see paying an extra $200 for the GS3, I just don't see much of a difference yeah the GS3 will probably beat the One X in benchmarks but not by that much that you are really going to be able to tell during everyday use.
The one X has handled everything I've thrown at it so far. and by the time it wont be able to run an app or game it will be time to upgrade anyways.
Its personal preference pay $200 more for the s3 or buy the One X and be happy with a phone that is amazing. 32GB with 25GB dropbox is enough for me I remember trying to fill 16GBs and it was hard and if I need to I can move things back and forth from my computer with a simple USB cord.

LOL, I was asking about the Note ha ha but thanks anyway. I currently have the Note and wondering if I should go HTC One X next. I am sick of how irresponsible Samsung are. The Note will be my last Samsung phone.

Hello
I too came from a note for a one x.
The beauty of the one x is far superior, over the years HTC have worked hard on presentation among other things, samsungs stock, im an oversized iphone look hasnt changed in years.
When it comes too stability browsing, the Note beats the HTC into submission im afraid, but this is because it runs a solid and stable GB os, far superior to the crappy versions of ics we run on the htc, and before anyone jumps in screaming ICS rocks, wake up, if you think ICS is bug free and the finished article then youre clearly not seeing the facts. GB is more stable, but there again, its been around a lot longer, i expect ics will be just as good when it is the polished article.
The note was way too clumsy as a phone, one of the reasons i gave up on it, the one x is much nicer in every design way possible, plus the one x has superior power over the note, and i wouldnt worry about battery, i get a day from my one x, thats no different to what my note gave me.
The main reason i left the note was because the custom development side of the note forum on here became a massive issue for me, too many releases were responsible for bricking peoples Notes beyond repair, it became unsafe to flash custom software from over there, not that im blaming anyone, great group of lads, but the minute that happened i lost all faith.
The development just became a Miui thread in the end practically, it was time to move on, ive had a htc before and i know on here, some of the developers and cooks have a very very good reputation, one of the reasons i chose HTC because i know when these lads finally get to grips with the s-on problem there will be no end to the development, and the note hasnt even had official ics yet, what a joke, i think with android 5.0 around the corner, the future of htc and one x is safe on this forum, youll get updates a lot faster than on samsung.
Horses for courses my friend, it is your choice, but i agree with toonarmy, HTC ONE X, bring it on, it can only get better from here on.

Read my post on the guys thread who was asking GSIII or One X Rom support

Thanks for your informative post. That's true though. I have the Galaxy S, S2 and now the Note and I feel they are pretty much the same. The Touchwiz skin turns out to be worse than I initially thought. To make it worse, they cover ICS native skin with this fugly skin and make it so fugly beyond repairs.
To top it off, because of the superbrick bug, I am so scared to flash any official ROM and to even update my device to official ICS ROM. This really killed the whole purpose of getting an Android phone, which is to do whatever you like with it.
Beside, I did some wipes when I was in ICS and according to the guys in the Galaxy Note forum, my eMMC might have been damaged. I really don't want to deal with all the warranty repair hassle so it might be the right time for me to get rid of my Note.

One thing i hate about Samsung, touchwiz 3 at sgs1 and they didn't update it to touchwiz 4, unlike dhd which one got updated from 2.0 to 3.6 and possibly even to 4.0. Samsung sucks at updates.

I was thinking about buying one X too but reading this forum indicates so many problem with quality built. I just sit out for now because if I buy iy, it will be from Ebay or Amazon (live in US) and very difficult with warranty and stuff.

Take the One X and you won`t be sorry. I had the Note and i didn`t use the whole pen utility`s (notes and drawings). I just loved the big screen and the powerfull cpu. But the amount of pixels slowed it down quite heavily in performance.
The One X seems snappier and more direct imo.

My bad I'm so used to post saying should i get SG3 or One X, man that drives me crazy.... They both are good in their own rights. But anyways once again my bad just a little jumpy with all the SG3 or One X post I see. People need to search and their are already hundreds.................X10 SG3 or One X post.
I should have added some useful info since I own both. Here is how I see it the Note is a good PDA IMO. Its just doesn't have the feel of a phone to me, its not really good to carry around for everyday use. Its nice size screen for certain things I use mine like a tablet basically. I just needed something I could carry in my pocket and the note just didn't really fit right, I don't really like touch-wiz it feels like you are still on gingerbread, the way its designed. The display kills it when trying to watch a video it shows artifacts in the blacks, like really old .AVI videos. Thats just my personal opinion.

I think, htc one x. Sound is good, lighter and more compact than note.
Sent from my Xperia Arc using XDA

My friend has the note, and I did a quick comparison with my one X.
The one X is super smooth scrolling between homescreens etc, wheras there is a noticeable lag on the note, in nearly everything.
The screen is good on the note, but the one X is so much better, in both colour reproduction and of course pixel density
And the one X is really nice to hold and use on an everyday basis, whereas the note is unwieldy and too shiny, so really slippery in hand
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

For me it's simples, build and feel quality. Samsung consistently produce sub-par products in the quality of materials department........and that's being kind.
HTC have always produced premium feeling hardware and the HOX is no exception.

Note or One X
Had my HTC one X for a week now and very happy with it. Previously had a Galaxy S and wasn't impressed with the Touch Wiz interface so that put me off the Note as did the size ,thought 5.3 inch was a little OTT.
Very happy with it so far. The stock Rom runs very smooth even with the Vodafone clutter installed. If it carries on as it is now i wont even look at custom ROM as there will be no point.
Only downer is the battery but as pointed out by someone earlier that's the deal with a smartphone . I charge once a day and although i would like it to last longer i can cope. Think those of us who have had a few smartfones now accept we have to manage the battery ourselves so if im at work and not using it i turn to 2g, brightness down and turn off auto sync and i can get from 9-6 with 91% left then i can go mad with all the bells and whistles on when im out and about with worry. Seems like a hassle altering the settings for different situations but it only takes 20 seconds in reality with a few well places shortcuts.
Love the feel as well, very hard to let slip in the hand unless some more plastic y phones.

Now I think HTC one x quality is perfect rather than the first batch of phones.. I got the first batch also with flaws but HTC swapped it with a perfect one.. ht24 serial rather than ht23.. by the way, I held the note side by side to my one x and the camera and screen of the one x is much superior than the note IMHO.. the guys posted before is right same old style, feel and interface with galaxy series nothing new just the size rather than sense UI..

I could add that HTC One X has a super nice GPS - takes about 4s to get signal in buildings - that's just ridicules

I traded my Note for this bad boy. Well worth it my friend
Sent from my HTC One X

I have both and I like both.
I prefer One X cause it's more portable and has clearly a better screen. GNote has the advantage (while One X doesn't get S-OFF) of allowing to install custom roms without voiding warranty and of the bigger screen, which really makes a difference for e-reading.

I have both and I have ended up using the One X more. There are things that I really love about the note, but the updates and ICS on it are a let down. I for one really like sense and have since win mo days. To each his own

Get the One X ? Or give 100 €/$ more for the SGS III..?

I am considering upgrading from my DHD to the One X or SGS III.
I saw that in most reviews the SGS III is the superior over the One X, now my question is if that is worth the € 100 (actually the difference is a bit bigger even) extra to get the SGS III ?
I like design of both phones, with a slight preferation for the One X. I noticed android development community of the One X has expanded greatly already whereas the SGS III seems to still be taking off.. (much more flashing fun for the One X that means). Sense doesn't interest me that much, I would go for an AOXP rom anyways probably, or if I wouldn't root the phone right away yet use another launcher. I have no experience with TouchWizz from Samsung.
Hopefully some people can help me with my decision.
Cheers
W.

If you need stylish phone get one x
If you need some old design phone get siii
btw both are powerful phone. but hox looks sexier.

The one x already has a great development community. The SIII just got released last week so development is just taking off but it will be one of the best without a doubt. I would recommend going for the S3 which has better battery life and is smoother all around. Especially the fact that you don't really care about sense. The one x is great though, beautiful body and screen but the boot loader is locked and u gotta unlock through HTC Dev and it will void your warranty. The S3 boot loader is unlocked all u need to do is root it. They are both amazing phone but the S3 is better in my opinion.

As an owner of both I say S3, unless you're shallow and only want to make your decision based on design and looks as the poster above suggests, in that case go for the One X.

And which one is faster in benchmarks (Antutu, Quadrant, ...)?

Although you must take benchmark tests with a pinch of salt, the SGS III beats the One X in every single benchmark program.

with most modern android phones the major thing differentiating them is with looks.
the one x and s iii are incredibly similar spec wise, other than a battery and s-off.
the majority of users will not care about rooting so choosing a better looking phone over another is not shallow. if i'm buying a phone i have to use every day for at least two years i'm gonna go for one that i actually like the look of.

the s iii is faster, but there will be no noticeable difference when running apps on the phone. the one x also has the nvidia tegra 3 chip, which many modern games are optimised for (search for THD or tegra on the play store)

Why did you choose the HOX over the Galaxy S3

I'm a Galaxy S3 owner I'm not here to slag off the HTC One X i think it's a great phone, as i use to have a HTC Sensation & actually liked Sence more than Touchwiz.
But i'm wondering what made you choose the the HOX over the Galaxy S3, was it build quality, Sence, Camera ect ect?

3 things:
1. Touchwiz(don't like it)
2. HTC Sense(love it)
3. When you hold S3 in your hands you get this plastic feeling, feels like a cheap toy(but that's just my opinion, I'm sure its a great phone)

1. Better Screen
2. Better UI though a bit laggy
3. Better Design and build quality
4. Tegra Chip - special tegra high quality games
5. Was released earlier and i couldn't wait till s3 was released
6. Its camera's burst feature and Feature of taking pics while shooting a video

I personally didn't want to wait for gs3 to comeout ,I wish I did,I could have saved me being angry at a phone (first time)for 4 months,now I'm happy after I got rid off it and did what I should have done fist place

i chose HOX instead of GS3 because i had galaxy s1 for 2 years and i was tired of amoled screen and crackling plastic.
the screen on hox is really better in my opinion, and colors are realer!
then, design! i loved hox since the first time i've seen it!
then i wanted to try sense, i always loved it but never used!
i'm happy of my decision and i'll never come back from it!

Cuz its just better like they said "the s3 feel's cheap n plasticy ^_^

Build quality
Found GS3 to be overrated
HTC sense is much better than touchwiz
Cheaper
HTC brand
My mums GS2 had loads of issues
Don't care about the very small spped differences. Find one x faster in several cases.
THD game support. Power saver core
Honestly when the next flagship is out (MWC 2013) most people's issues with the one x will be fixed, it will use either tegra 4 or snapdragon s4 which are both 28nm a15 which will boost performance and battery life with both having improved GPU with the tegra most likely 24 core GPU. The biggest reason I would find to buy the Samsung galaxy s4 is because of the Mali gpu but tegra 4 may be better
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Because I knew some day HTC will fix lagging and optimize tegra, so HOX with his diplay and design will simply become better package then sammy And yesss, they already did it with last 4.0.4 update!

i am an avid mobile gamer and the nvidia tegra chip on this phone coupled with the 1.5ghz processor simply provides an unbeatable gaming experience. i also enjoy the sense interface on this phone compared to the s3,which wasn't. to my liking. then again, its juz my opinion. im sure the s3 does have its fair share of advantages.

had my HOX even before SIII specs were released but would prefer HOX over the SIII
I prefer Sense way over Touchwiz. Android's default UI is better then Touchwiz.
Though would like the "Keep-On when watching phone" fucntion of the SIII, though I think it would drain battery.

honestly i regretted getting the hox

Not a fan of AMOLED or Touchwiz, thought the HOX looked really nice physically, and I also don't like Samsung's side power button. I also don't like the look of the S3, although it doesn't feel as bad as I expected.

These threads are not allowed in sub forums, you can post it in the android general sections, it will be closed very soon

Because I knew that the OX would become the technical and developers' successor of the HD2. In my opinion this phone will live for 2.5 years and more.
Plus I wouldn't touch a Samsung with a bargepole because of the AWFUL TouchWiz *spits*

One word: design...
Look and feel is so much better, that I would buy my hox over and over.
Other great point is the display (vividness of my original galaxy s was the main issue with it)
Although I would have better battery, but everything else is just super since I flash custom roms (I prefer stock Android look over sense and touchwiz)
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

IMHO no comparisons can be done! GS3 is a great device just like the HOX but it doesn't have HTC Sense (And all HTC apps)
In general, as regards the software HTC is slightly ahead and the design of this phone is far better than the GS3.
The performance are equal!! I've had both HTC and GS3 and GS2 and iPhone before, and I have to say that I'd never change my HOX!
Best phone I've ever had!!
Even if I must admit that maybe I'm lucky because my unit is just perfect (no overheating, no short battery life, no flickering, no wifi issue etc.)
To sum up, if you have the luck to get a perfect HOX it is the most advanced and beautiful phone in the world for now!
Of course there are my humble opinions...

Choice based on past experience

I chose the One X based on the fact that I used to like and trust HTC.
Their eye for detail is usually sound. The One X's pysical design is outstanding and I was originally in favour of the their new policy of a non-removal battery. Sence has also always been another plus and the reason to choose the One X. I have owned 4 other HTC phone (Hero, Desire, Desire S and the Sensation) and all devices have been enhanced by the inclusion, running alongside the various Android versions.
But having owned the One X, since May, little things about the device now have begun to annoy me. The back of the device heats up after moderate use. The non-removal battery, originally seemed like a sound idea, until you realise that the battery installed is not capable of lasting more than an 6 hours on moderate use.The fixed SD storage, with no option to add your own, like their previous devices, now can be viewd as an idiotic decision. If they were going down this route, it might have been an idea to increase the internal storage on the phone (and the battery's capacity).
Sence has now become too "heavy" for ICS and unfortunately slows the device down, god knows what it will do to the speed of the device once they upgrade it to Jelly Bean!!
Funnily enough, I still love the device

I had the s3 for 2 days and i loved it but then i tried the hox and sold my s3.

Had Samsung phones for years, and loved my sg2 but got impatient waiting for the sg3 so went for the HOX.
Do not regret it at all. Had its issues in the early days as I got it on release day but all has been solved with different otas.
Screen is superior, better build quality. Development is a little slow because of the s off issue but still good. Some very talented developers on the HOX forums. I do wish the battery was removable tho.
I do wish I had my sg2 still though, mainly so I can access skygo and sky sports tv. Oddly, sky release a brand new app a week ago without supporting 2 of the most popular phones on the market right now in the sg3 and hox.
