One X vs GS3?

Hi at all! some day ago i broke my HD2 so i search for a new smartphone! my choise is on one X and Gs3 I know that for now the one X with stock rom have a worse ottimization (like with animated wallpaper). so I ask you what's the best phone in this area,if one have the sotck rom or some other from XDA:
battery
performance
with the new rom form XDA one X is better that GS3 or GS3 continue at be the best phone for performance and battery?

I had a look at a S3 the other in day in store and I was quite impressed but at the same time not disappointed with my choice of the HOX.
I do like the sense launcher and some time soon I am going to flash a custom rom to speed things along but from what I've read and seen both phones are nearly identical performance wise.
If you are into flashing custom roms and things I would go with the S3 as they have already released the source code for it while where stuck over here trying to get S-off

thanks so with the new rom you have noted some improvement in the battery life? beacause for now this is the real difference between one X e SG3 for me i Have fear that the one X have a small battery

From a pure hardware/features standpoint, the GS3 is a beast.
Personally, I like the way the HOX looks/feels, though and I'm a sucker for the contact integration of the social networks. Touchwiz has a long way to go before it's that refined.

but for the daily use the one X have some lag with the custom rom? I see in a lot of review a bug with animated wallpaper and the stock browser is terrible with flash respect the one s and Gs3 :/
so with the new updates or custom rom this problem are solved?

The HOX is a better phone but the GS is a better made phone, I love the HOX and the curved look, and sense is awesome, I must have installed all other launchers and ended up back with sense.
The GS is a little too..... simple, or presice, the HOX is a Tegra 3 Daddy, dont worr about the battery as my model and if you buy one yours will be fine and last 2 days easy. Its eraly SN versions having issues not new ones.

sorry,but I don't understend the phrase "The HOX is a better phone but the GS is a better made phone". I want said that SG3 is better of HOx?
I'm worry about battery and lag,beacause in a lot of review HOX have some lag and a lot of people said that is not optimized

sorry,but this is a very big forum,so here I can have a lor of opinion
I saw the video. My conclusion is that with the new update and custom rom in daily use the difference between GS3 and HOX in nearly zero,right?
But I don't understand how much is big the difference in the game. with one X there is some game that go slow?like Mass effect or some other new games?

Go for the S3, OneX is for **** ....

in daily tasks both are the same, no one is going to notice, in games the hox has support for the high graphics tegra 3 games, with development support by nvidia.

making a statement without any justification for your conclusion is pointlessly unhelpful.

HOX: better screen, camera & design.
SGS3: unlocked bootloader, removable battery, sdcard slot.
If you can't make a decision from that simple summary then it doesn't matter, you'd be happy with either.

I just got my one x a few hours ago and I think it is awesome. I'm definitely buying the pebble blue galaxy s 3 though. Just be happy with your purchase. Both great in their own way.

I dont like the samsung TouchWiz interface. HTC Sense is way better in my opinion.
I had HTC Inc S, then got the SGS2, wasnt really happy with it, mainly the interface, so got the ONE X and love it.
Its fast and battery lasts well, I get 2 days of average use before recharge. Allthough when I use it as a Wifi hotspot for 6 hours will only last me 1 day.

in my honest opinion
I have my HOX now for the past month and I am satisfied...
Just satisfied as it delivers where it should as in Graphics, Performance, UI, Integration and sleekness, however the only major downfall I would say of the HOX is the Battery and not having a removable SD card.
Battery life too short and not being able to expand the memory is a downfall
So with only those 2 aspects in mind I would change to a GS3
Otherwise I am happy with my HOX

Please helpp!! One X new 300€ or One X + 360€???

Hello, i'm upgrading my phone and i can't decide.. OK so help me guys i need to decide within 4 hours..
I can buy One X at 300€ new , or One X+ at 360€
So first i want to clear something:
IF i buy the One X i will upgrade the battery buying the hox+ battery so ther'are +30€ for the battery.
IF i buy the One X i will have a better support , more roms than hox+ ..
+ I realy like the White color of One X , also the hox+ black&red is beauty but the stock is better.
What i need to do?? I'm so confused...
Where are so much differences between hox and hox+ on the support? hox i see has more roms.. sorry for my english

You got all your facts right m8! Don't know why your having a hard time choosing between them! If you are a flashaholic then go for One X as the rom development is fantastic!
Both the devices are similar other than the few Mhz in clock speed!

These kind of threads aren't allowed bro, I'm guessing it'll be closed soon enough

I would go for the One X+ for the bigger battery and if you are into music the One X+ seems the better choice as it has a hardware amplifier for the headphone jack, also the finish in the One X+ seems better. But the One X is still an awesome device. I love mine!

Question regarding ROMs on One X and One X+

Hi there,
i have a question that might be just plain stupid, but it is something i'd really like to know. My question is: can ROMs for the One X+ be used on the One X, or is that impossible? I would like to know this because i'm about to buy a new phone, and i want it to be as futureproof as possible.
For obvious reasons the One X+ would be more futureproof regarding the specs, but i'm afraid since there were not as much sold of it as the One X there won't be long-time support for it with custom ROMs. Also, i definitely want MIUI on it, and i haven't seen MIUI for the One X+ yet. So if ROMs for the One X could run on the One X+, that would be great for me since it would mean i can have my phone longer before needing to replace it. Also i would be getting the bigger storage and faster processor. ( T30 vs T33.)
In a nutshell: i want the phone that is the longest time supported by MIUI, and since there were more One X's sold than One X+'s i'm afraid they'll only port MIUI to the One X, and therefore it would last longer. But if ROMs for the One X can also run on the One X+, then i would have a futureproof device that is also a bit faster and has more storage than the One X.
So is this possible?
Best regards,
dbhuis.

Don't be so confused mate!
The only difference between the One X and X+ is the extra few MHz which you don't need
and if you want your phone running latest custom roms, One X rom development is better than X+!

No you can not install a one x+ rom on a hox and vice versa !
They have their own section for a reason

@vin4yak: Okay thanks man, i know it's clocked higher but i wondered if there might be another graphics chip in there but if there isn't there is no point in getting it.
@ Mr Hofs: Relax man. I knew it was improbable ( hence the sentence "i have a question that might be just plain stupid" at the beginning of the post) but it would just have been awesome if it was possible, that's all.

What do you mean "relax" ... I'm just confirming your question. I'm not into typing a massive story. You ask a question i gave the answer !

The main difference is the battery and the memory. The o/c and graphics difference are minimal. There are some carriers in the UK who still provide the One X but say the One X+ is EOL, for some reason.

Then i guess it doesn't matter much. I am using 8GB sdcard now, so 32GB will be enough. Bigger battery is nice but not really exciting, so it's good to hear that the differences are minimal.

I know bigger batteries are better, but if i have to choose between custom ROM support or a bigger battery, i choose the custom ROM support. Also, it has the companion core so it should not be using much energy when in sleep.
And since i don't use it intensively it will be in sleep mode a lot.
And on the HD2 that i have now i can get through a day with about 80% left average. That is with a smaller battery, so i think the HOX will do just fine with a bigger battery. If it doesn't, i'll just fully charge it and delete the battery stats. That has always worked for me very well.

[Q] Should I get the HTC One x now ?

Im about to get a new smartphone at the 10th of next month. Should I go for the Htc one x or Nexus 4 ?
Will it get full sense 5 and android 5 ?

The one x will get sense 5 and android 4.2.2, who knows after that. Any Nexus device will get the latest android version that it can physically handle. I preferred, and still prefer, the one x but everyone has their own opinion, your best bet is to try them out for a while and see which one fits your needs.

I would advice against it. It has lot of issues. Call Clarity, Overheating, Battery not Charging.
I also did buy one 2 weeks back. Tried to update official OTA Update. got stuck in boot loop. Now its not charging and is paper weight.
Get a phone which is reparable easily or at least has a removable battery.
this is my personal opinion plz dont flame me
hope it helps.

I've had mine HTC One X for one year and a few days now. If I were to choose phone again today I would not choose thte HTC One X. It has alot of troubles and the battery life is terrible compared to say Galaxy S4. One minus is also that you can not change the battery easily yourself and no sd-card slot. You have both of these of on the Galaxy S4.
The reason I bought the One X was that I love Sense, still think it's the best looking Android out there. But is it worth all downs?

Of course HOX!!
You can use any style on HOX: make it like googlephone, iphone & etc. But I think Sense wouldn't work on Nexus

Do the HTC One X ROMS work on the One X+?

Just as the title says.
I have the HTC One X+ and notice there are a lot more tons for the HTC One X than the One X+ and would like to try them
Sent from my HTC One X+ using Tapatalk 2

If they did they would be in the same section.
People who have almost identical phones (The One XL) almost brick their devices trying our ROMs.
Don't even try.

The HOX+ and HOX are nigh on identical, internally and externally. But there are minor variations, probably mostly in the way the phone identifies itself to software, but I believe there are differences in the internal partition structure that make the 2 devices incompatible in terms of ROM's.
I don't think I would take the chance of bricking it.
That said...adaptation of any HOX ROM to the HOX+ should be a relatively minor enterprise. Might want to look into porting one.

the cpu is a lil bit another then in the hox and hboot etc is not completely the same...the things which aren't the same are really really small...so don't try...you or another dev could try to port...that would work...
