Looking to buy One X

Hello all i currently own a Galaxy Nexus and thinking of buying a HTC One X.
I have read lots of good things about it but mixed reviews on problems but have many been ironed out now ?
Is it worth the jump ?

Make the jump dude. But you got jb. Why would you want to swap that for. Anyways word of warning. Next time search dude loads of threads about what you are asking and most of them got shut down.
Best thing to do watch YouTube videos and there are threads here giving you reviews also.
You need any more help PM me

With JB currently being available for the nexus there is nog real world difference in performance. I'm now running a miui rom on my HOX which makes it much faster than stock, but still slower than an nexus running JB.
I would wait out some more development for the HOX (official camera hack, Good JB port, Tegra 3 optimisation from the nexus 7 etc.) before switching phone's.
Give it a good month or 2. Will also save you some cash since the HOX is still dropping in price.

funny, I'm about to buy a Galaxy Nexus and go away from the One X for the sake of quicker updates and a bit better battery life with the 2.000mAh battery pack. I'm sure I'll miss the One X build quality though, HTC has done some really nice work there..
but to answer your question, i found the camera to be better on the One X, and of course the build quality is a major factor, the unibody design feels really nice in the hand and looks super good.

Galaxy Nexus New Phone

I currently have the sensation. Always had HTC my whole android life. Love HTC but thinking about diving into the Samsung life. I'm thinking about buying the unlocked gsm galaxy nexus from the play store.
I can't always afford the best phone at the time, I pay cash. That's why the one s and galaxy s3 are of limits. I am on T-Mobile US
You guys think it's a good idea to switch? I realize this is the nexus forum, and it would be biased. But I want to know if it is a good idea, or if I should wait for something else. Is is too late to buy one of these?
Just give me all opinions. Thanks in advance.

I literally just changed from a Rezound to the GSM nexus. I can almost gaurantee you'll like it more. HTC sense drags android down so much. I also really enjoy the plainess of stock android. Also if there was ever a good time to jump ship on HTC its now. They are dying off quickly right now.

From what I have seen so far it is decent. You can get a 2000mah battery that negligibly increases the size of the phone if the stock isn't good enough (1750mah). I don't use my phone a whole lot during the week because I can't carry it into where I work but it has been better than my rezound was. My typical use with my rezound would give it all of 10-12 hours of life, I see my nexus getting about 14-16 especially with power saving kernels and simpler roms.

I was Verizon + HTC for years and I just switched to the GNex on Straight Talk. I could not be happier. It's an amazing phone at a great price. JB is what Android was meant to be. Battery, signal, camera; it's all been great.
You won't regret it.

if u are a heavy user like me id recommend getting larger batteries. the stock battery only lasts me about 8 hours with medium/ heavy usage ( using facebook/ twitter/ youtube and playing huge games like max payne)

Most seem to think there will be several of them, not just 1 this time. And that they will be out by Christmas. But there's no official word this is just the rumors. They for sure won't be US$350 though, which is why I just bought this one. I, too, am a to-hell-with--your-contracts kind of guy, so I pay full price. And frankly, 600+ for the new Nexus is just more than I am willing to pay. Especially when I care nothing about being the fastest or having the newest. I'm happy with my OG Evo right now, in fact. But DONE with Sprint!

Need an extra opinion.

So. I've got a friend who tonight just offered to trade a 32gb HTC One X International for my AT&T 16gb Galaxy S3. I've already got two friends saying it's a good trade, and I'm inclined to agree because of the Tegra 3 and the LCD screen. Just curious to see what anyone else thought and if they'd give a thumbs up or down.

Yes its a good trade. Tegra 3 and 32 gb, but you will NOT get LTE with the hox, is this a deal breaker?
Also the battery life on the hox is a lot less than the s3, but if rooted there are a couple of roms that utilize battery use very well.
Another good reason to trade is the latest sense, its brilliant.
Check the hox thoroughly, make sure its a perfect runner before you swap.

Don't now about circumstances in us, but here in Germany its not good, better to sell your galaxy s3 on ebay or Craig list and buy hox, it'll give you some extra bucks

Check what your network uses. GSM or CDMA. If you haven't, go read some reviews. I've been debating getting the one x international myself but I've read the battery life is god awful.
Been holding out on getting a new phone since I wanted one with a decent physical keyboard and other specs. Since HTC decided they don't want to anymore and I love sense its hard to look at anything else. Can't stand AOSP stock look or touchwiz for sure though personally.

Your out to date, mate. The battery life with last stock rom is pretty good. With 4-5 screen on time hox can live for a hole day. Gaming will cause some battery drain, bur even playing 1,5hrs Sega virtua tennis my phone gives me 3hrs screen on time.
P. S. : typing on 4,7 display with swiftX keyboard is such a pleasure after some time it collects your type of lexicon and it becomes really hard to use something other than that (ok, full qwerty is still nice on PC, but everything alse kind of suxx)

What is your next phone after HOX and NO S-OFF

With HTCs latest move of removing htcruu.com and no s off.
As well as build problems. I.e, sensation death grip and hox, yellow spots, wifi.
What will you be moving to next and why?

I have 4 choices , note 3, iPhone 5s , next nexus or the one x successor with TegrA 4, I love my one x but u think that Htc should improve the audio and optimise the os better.

Re: What is your next phone after HOX and NO A-OFF
To be honest my first android phone was HTC ,I had all the phones with all the problems you mentioned ,I think I need to get away to Samsung phones and see the performance ,get accustomed with rooting and all with Samsung and then decide if its worth it ,cause honestly I couldn't care less about sense and built quality if performance and battery life is good ,the end of the day phone life is 2 years.im Sure a plastic Samsung will last 2 years rather than good built quality with component deffects and all the crap that HTC is doing now

htc one x
htc again

Me too. I like sense but feed up of HTC and their antics. I'm going to move to xperia z
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium App

i had the htc tytn then desire and now one x ,next phone will be samsung,there so much easier to mod ,cant htc see thats why samsung have a huge customer base,

My OneX stopped working due to water damage. Not stocked anymore so insurance gave me a GS3 32g.
Had one when released and hated it.
New one on jellybean is good though.
Still miss the one x but Samsung aren't really that bad. Stock vs stock goes to HTC with Sense.
That being said I can't wait for Xperia Z.

My next smart phone will be a samsung, would have considered iphone5s but 4inch screen to small for me.

No more HTC i'm done with them. I might go for Xperia XL or any other device .. Maybe the next MIUI device rumored with T4.

I dont know yet, i have hox and sg3, so i guess no one this year, no more HTC for sure... No soff, so, by htc. Gonna break for sure, at least phones. Will keep building only windows phones, so i predict competition with nokia only.
So the only brand is Sony and Samy, Sony will see no updates as it should, son maybe ending with Samsung.
Thanks for everything Htc, great phone, tegra is great on gaming but battery sucks in JB. Uncontrolled ota, ruu encrypted.. And more.. But well, hox still a great phone but .won't buy an htc phone anymore. Even if they give us SOFF.
And i dont lie.

Samsung S4..

Απ: What is your next phone after HOX and NO S-OFF
If S4 has awesome design then I ll go for it. Otherwise HOX until sth nice pops up!
On the road using my HOX

Unless HTC goes back to its glory days, this November I am getting a GS4 or the GNote 3.

I'm done with HTC. If I want to have a expensive peace of crap I will buy a IPhone. Because of there strategie to keep the devices locked within the future they should keep this trash!
I'm waiting for my Note2.

Some interesting comments. Seems there is abit of frustration with htc. Was going to go for the butterfly but All butterfly has is a bigger screen and krait.
but I'm moving to Sony Now. Atleast they do not break promises or let customers down

But at least they have a damn good hardware. The best base to build own ROMs.

HTC One Advice needed.

Hello guys. I am a N4 user and have been since October. I had a HTC one S before this and loved it. I decided to buy a N4 16GB to see what the hype was and I'm not sure if I'm happy with it to be honest.
I am a HTC fanboy really. Had the HTC Desire when it came out and loved it.
What I am asking is stepping down to HOX will it be ok. I mean the N4 does a lot but the Camera is terrible. Would I be silly to sell my N4 and go back to a HTC handset.
Just looking for honest advice really.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

It would be really god damn silly.
You'd have tons o' problems: bad battery life, no S-OFF, etc
Never do such a horrible thing, One X is previous generation and already getting oldish...
I, however, would switch to N4 any day if I had the chance.

TToivanen is right
The N4 is a great device
HOX is great as well, but not for developers
I AM an HTC fan boy myself , but to be honest I wish I had N4
so
HOX:
-bigger storage, 32GB
-sense (if you planning not to flash AOSP ROMS)
-camera is slightly better (some might think)
-tegra 3
-better design
-beats audio
N4:
-AMZINGLY FAST UPDATES
-though they are both 1.5 quad, but N4 is way faster
-2 GB of ram
-better stability
-louder speaker
-faster WIFI (I KNOW THIS FOR A FACT)
-better battery life
I would choose N4

Nexus 4 is better than the One X unless you're looking for a slower device.

So basically stick with the N4.
