Why is htc one s more expensive than htc one x

Hi can anyone tell me that why is the htc one s more expensive than one x as one x has a bigger screen a quadcore processor and it is also considered htc's flagship phone.

The One X is more expensive

Where do you see that the One S is more expensive?

I looked it on a website and over there the htc one s was more expensive

well that website got it wrong
the one x is holding at 520$ in my country the one s is 420$

One S also cheaper in UK

The only way I can think of that happening is if they were look at on contract prices for the T-Mobile One S and the AT&T One X(L).

Stores here in Singapore have the One S priced $100 more than the One X. I didn't understand it either.

same here in Saudi Arabia

It's cost for more battery backup....lol
It would be high because its still not released in that country and one x has releases so they have to import one s from u.k or so hence higher price..
Same here in India

Sure its the One X and not One XL ?

I got my HOX free on a 24 month contract (£21.50 a month!). At the time, the HOS was £79. They're both free on that contract now, but the HOS as 200 minutes instead of the 100 the HOX has.

Does the HOX have more reported issues with it? Maybe that hasn't helped sales?

Yup.

It's because in Singapore One S is bundled with Beats earphone/headphone (don't remember which one/type), one X did not have beats bundle.
What I found amusing is in states, comparing T-mobile one S and AT&T one X, off-contract price, indeed one S is $50 more expensive, I don't get the logic...
Back then, in the end I'm forced to get One S, cause AT&T would not sold One X to tourists "you must be AT&T customer... bla bla bla..." T-mobile happily sell me prepaid one S.

A couple of months ago I could have understood it because the One S was superior to the One X. I found that myself when going from a One S to a One X, but now with the latest base it is the other way round.

One S is cheaper than One X in Czech Republic too..

If the HTC One S is selling well in a certain country, The carriers will take advantage of this.
In the US some carriers have dropped the price of the HTC One X by $100 according to a news article.

Which one is better to use as nexus, one x or s3?

Hi,
I wanted to buy the nexus 4 but since yesterday, i know the nexus is not coming to my country (belgium). Since i need a new phone (my htc desire is running on it last breath) i wanted to review my options. The best phones available here are the s3 and the one x or one x+. I would like to make it a nexus via a custom rom. I know it is possible with all three but is one better than the other? l have heard that the exynos soc is a pain for developing for example...
And the buttons on one x are more stock them s3.
Looking forward to your answers!

I have htc one x myself... But you dont get s-off.... Check one x forum.. We all complaine about it.
I would have choosen s3 if i could buy again. But dont get me wrong. One X is a good phone. Just no s-off..

I bought Galaxy Nexus off Amazon Germany for 325 euros two months ago. I also know a colleague of mine who arrogantly ordered a nexus 4 off the internet yesterday and expects it to be delivered tomorrow.

Maybe for the following reasons.
1. OP owns a Desire
2. Asking this on any of the three device specific threads will only yield bias to the device it was posted on.
3. Ran out of ideas.
Hey at least its not another best rom thread.

Exactly! I thought about posting it on the two forums of the devices in question but i figured they would recommend their own device anyway.
And yes i have a desire now so maybe other desire owners are thinking about changing too

I would prefer..
Nexus 4
HOX+
S3
In that order. The price point + longer software support just screams value for me. Just look at the support Nexus S got.

I agree, except pay attention to the nexus 4 forums first. I think the early release has a few problems. Wait for the dust to settle about the nexus excitement, then if the reviews are still good, buy it.

I would choose one s.

Galaxy Nesus!!!

Currently on a 2 year contract so will probably wait for the one x 3

Im the sort of person who won't buy something for the sake off it so I'll probably run my one x into the ground before I even think about a new phone.

I'll use it as fry pan ,it has just the right temperature to fry eggs(no oil though my hox has gaps :-X)

Also in a 2 year contract..lol.. also I feel fine with my one x...and its great to wait 2 years..and really feel a difference to my htc desire...
For temperature..my 2 core laptop also get warm if i play some harder games...
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium App

can we start calling it the two x? can we make it a new thing? pretty please? lol

Well, what I always do is buy the successor then decide which one to keep a month later...this year the One X has grown on me....so it may be a keeper for another year

Probably give it to my partner... She's been eyeing it up ever since I got it. I'll probably go for a Nexus 4 before my contracts up and I'm fairly certain this will be my last hTC device even though I love the build quality and design. That is unless their policy with regard to s-off/updates becomes a lot less sucky.

My next phone would be HTC Two X, then HTC Three X and....

Yep same. Stuck in a 24 month contract but I'm already starting to think about a new device. The One X is great but I'm pretty sure this will be my last HTC. Again, the s-off nonsense and laxidasical approach to releasing sources coupled with being spoilt with the openness of Nexus have all made me reconsider

Depends on what the 2x has, is its too hard to pass up ill sell my one x and get one, if not ill keep the one x and honour my whole 2 year contract

I'm probably done with HTC, I'm waiting a while because I think Google will release a 32GB Nexus 4. At that point I'll buy a 16GB Nexus 4 for $300 instead of $350.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

I think I will buy a galaxy s5 or 6
For now i'm happy with one x,what can they do more ?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

Keep the One X+
Like several others, I'm on the 2yr plan. I really like the One X+ so far.
I had an Aria, then an Inspire 4G before and really like HTC build quality.
Much better than my dad's Samsung Galaxy SII.

I think I'll get a nexus device for my next phone. I actually really wanted a galacy nexus but was spec struck by the one x... And quicker updates wpyld be nice. That said it would be interesting to see what they come up with next.

I'll probably hold on to the one X for a while unless I go visit France or the us next may for break.

Like other people said when I'll change my hox I'll jump ship and probably buy a gphone. The problem is not the s-off itself but the warranty matter that comes without it. It's a pity cos htc always made really good phones and I'm with it since the good old htc magician with windows mobile 2003.

Help TeamAndirc maybe to S-OFF HTC One X..

We're looking for reasonably priced (read that as really cheap) HTC Tegra devices, as well as HTC One V and HTC One S (s3 only)
This is a tweet from justin case teamandirc maybe there are people out there with a spare HTC one x tegra...
These guys recently S-OFF HTC one xl (qualcomm) device so... You can contact them via Twitter @TeamAndIRC

Would be nice to see Tegra 3 HoX S-off-ed but it's much harder then qualcomm devices , many have tried , many have failed , tho i wish to those guys best of luck for getting it done, They might wanna check this thread , there are pro ppl discussing about S-oFF for tegra 3 hox. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2057105

That is all well known lol, hence them looking to get One X devices because they know they can't S-off it in a similar manner like Qcomm Good luck to them!

What do you consider reasonably priced? In GBP please

A reasonably priced s-off HOX would MAYBE help. We even had a dev with an s-off'd HOX but obviously it didn't really helped him=us.
Someone offered me his s-off'd One X....for almost 800 quid...

That's too much if you ask me, tops 350E for used S-OFF hox, not like he can change the real weather with it so it asks for 400E :cyclops:

They don't really need an s-offed HOX to work on the exploit. Maybe if we could gather people and donate 1-2 euros each, I imagine he would be able to purchase used HOX relatively soon?

Let wait and see !!!!!

Why does XDA always believe the most obscure newssites possible like it's law or anything?
Also, the only thing they say is that the specs of the One X meet the minimum requirements.
