[Galaxy S III General] Chicken Nugget(s):
Lol I was reading that and I thought it's either deja vu or I've read it before

Well colour me impressed Samsung, gonna be hard deciding between the two... still don't like Touchwiz though (tried it on an ICS S2) let's see if the newer version is good enough.
[Galaxy S III General] LeviathanPT:
Always loved touchwiz, even tho i have an P990, im sure any software issue can be fixed eventually, im more concerned about the physical issues that it may bring.
[Galaxy S III General] Chicken Nugget(s):
To me the home screen flinging didn't really respond to my touch, as in no matter how fast my finger moves, once I lift it it glides at its own pace. It's not very satisfying. Or maybe it was just my friend's phone that's like that...

About the defects (if that's what you mean) all phones will have some when they launch. I wait a couple months for them to iron things out.
[Galaxy S III General] angler:
It is extreme subjective. I have hold my buying decision when One X launched and waited for the announcement of SGS3. I still prefer SGS3 to HOX for switchable battery and microsd. They are with the same surface material. Sense UI may be better and I get used to it for years. Just wait for the arrival in my place to buy SGS3.
[Galaxy S III General] BarryH_GEG:
This is obviously a hot topic in the One X forum also. Here's what I posted there. Keep in mind I'm deciding between the two after a week or so with the SGS3. I also came from a i9100 and have a 3G UK G-Tab 10.1 so I'm no one's fanboi.
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
I stopped posting on the one x section, after they started calling me a troll. I don't know what exactly a troll is but I posted on 3 threads with with the words "galaxy" on the title. Im not going there to start a new thread or whatever and never have. Now that the dust has settled, lets be the bigger man.
[Galaxy S III General] krabman:
In my own opinion these guys don't realize just how many of us have mp3 collections we want to pack on our phones. Not having the ability to get my mp3s on board makes the htc piece a non starter all by itself unless it can offset this by having an apk that makes naked supermodels spill out its guts on command.
[Galaxy S III General] radeonxt:
differences were not huge you say?

have you seen the video comparisons?htc's looked pale as compared to sgs3's.

and the most important thing that everyone waited and wanted to know was the battery life.

"here's a curious little detail about what people are saying that amoleds use more power when displaying whites compared to other screen displays.

"The two flagships were less convincing in the browser endurance test. The HTC One X shut down just 4 hours and 18 minutes into the test and the Galaxy S III went on for 5 hours and 17 minutes. We were actually rather surprised that the S III came out on top here, knowing how badly the predominantly white web pages treat AMOLEDs.""

"Audio quality

The Samsung I9300 Galaxy s III turned out to be one of the most talented musicians around and managed to edge out the One X in the audio output quality test."

not huge difference my ...

:D
[Galaxy S III General] eksasol:
This seems to be nearly flawless victory or smackdown (for the SIII, except screen and body imo), the photo sensor even trump the iPhone 4S. Glad to see the the audio quality is decent, that is a big factor for me.

I still don't understand Samsung decision to not use 5x5 icon rows in the home screen.
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
can someone explain to me why the GS3 has 4+ hour difference in movie playback? That is freakin amazing!
[Galaxy S III General] radeonxt:
the 300mah difference can't account for those 4+ hours for movie playback. lols

let those who can only attack with "ugly design" explain why the hell that is.:D
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
Might be the amoled blacks and hardware acceleration for all codecs
[Galaxy S III General] Basil3:
Nice review. I'd have no problem ditching my one x for the SGS3 if it does blow it out of the water when it is actually released. At this stage I don't think it's enough of a difference to make the switch.

Another reason I'd find it hard to leave the one x is the devs that are on it already are the best of the best from phones I've had over the years. If they make the jump to the GSIII, I won't be far behind.
[Galaxy S III General] pewpewbangbang:
Sgs3 gets 4+ extra hours because HTC and nvidia software/drivers are ****ty right now. Samoled helps.

Gsm arena battery test is outdated. Look at anandtechs with updated software. 7 hours of 3g web browsing.

Still, only thing holding back one x is software. Camera hardware is better than galaxy s3, the software and bit rate and compression just suck.

Galaxy s 3 exynos is hands down better until nvidia works our kinks in tegra 3 for battery saving. Galaxy s 3 design and build is uglier than ever.

Note I had the galaxy s, s2, and galaxy nexus so I'm not a fanboy. Speaking the truth.

I'd still take and keep one x over Sgs3 because of looks/build quality and its not much of an upgrade if one at all.

Too many Samsung and HTC fanboys on xda.....some of the posts are ridiculous

Edit: also, im pretty sure the gsm arena reviewer guy was the one that complained the one x had sharp edges......enough said
[Galaxy S III General] ECrispy:
I wonder what the differences will be between US version of GS3 and the Evo 4G LTE - these 2 phones will be much more similar - same cpu (S4), almost same battery, sd card etc. So it will be interesting to see how much the screen and the oem skins make a difference in battery life and experience.
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
hi pewpew~ good to see you here. Well the whole internet if full of fanboys and it always will be. You know it's in our human nature to be narcissistic. I try to refrain from it but its very hard lol. I even quit my disqus commenting to try to control myself.

I think one of the problem is I dont go out too much anymore. When I see myself being a **** over some stupid phones it's kinda sad. I guess I should word my posts in a more gentle fashion but still get the point across.

Good news is I don't think most of us are like this in real life. It's just that on the net, we are not face to face with the individual.
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
I heard rogers is getting the Exynos with LTE, so I hope that rumor is true. If the GS2 doesn't come to T-Mo with Exynos, I might as well wait for the LG
[Galaxy S III General] pewpewbangbang:
Wasn't really pointing at you haha but ok...just in general.

But yea....what it comes down to mainly is software being crap on HTC part and why its only slightly behind in certain things. Should win in terms of camera quality hardware is better, standby time is probably some of the best possible with the companion core, slcd2 should allow it to get much better battery life, but tegra 3 drivers are bad right now. Updated is better, anandtech updated showing it get 7 hours 3g web browsing so makes more sense and should beat out Sgs 3.

Big thing IMO is build materials and HTC wins hands down.
[Galaxy S III General] avocco:
Indeed. We are talking about build materials here, that includes the inside of the phone as well. You know how you have a tear up off the new devices and they show you what's on the inside. They can never do that with the Galaxy S3, Once they open the covers *BANG* THE AWESOMENESS THAT IS THE GALAXY S3 WILL BLIND YOU! You ever stared into a star that went supernova? Open the Galaxy S3 and you will, its called the "Galaxy" for a reason.

On a realistic note, the Galaxy S3 is filled with quality, and all the recent reviews prove it.
[Galaxy S III General] pewpewbangbang:
Lol.....honestly, if it was a 28nm dual core with new architecture It would be a lot more of an upgrade. Otherwise, krait is still probably one of the best choices.

Exynos 4 isn't that special. It's 32nm build which is better than tegra 3 and has an overclocked Mali. Still cortex a9.

Are you going to feel the build material of the inside of the phone every time you pick it up? Didn't think so......and its plastic inside also.

As I said.....I had the galaxy s, Sgs2 and galaxy nexus...I know what the phone is.

Only real enticing thing about Sgs 3 over hox is bigger battery. All I really care about is epic battery life. We're at a point where so much more speed isn't really being used besides games which I barely play as well as many other people. We play some angry birds and temple run and that's about it. Not gonna sit for hours playing shadowgun or MMORPG on a phone. There's vitas and ds to do that.

All the speed isn't even being used, they can all browse the web perfectly smooth etc....need to start focusing on battery life and all day screen usage.
[Galaxy S III General] Chillz88:
Are you kidding me..?.. This is ANDROID..i repeat ANDROID.... Its CUSTOMIZABLE... i have used so many of htc and samsung phones..so not a fanboy..

TOUCHWIZ- I know it sux... but there are a lot of launchers and modded roms out there..

Looks..- i agree with you that htc hox looks way better.. but gs3 will be one of the most hottest and popular phones out there.. ther will be lots of cases,skins and covers for it..

About the hardware of htc hox- you cant compromise for it.. nor you can compromise for its battery or storage because of its closed back...

Now tell me who wins...
[Galaxy S III General] javelar:
For me the deciding factor is very simply the battery.. the fact that is bigger and that i can replace it when needed. If the HOX had this i would probably go with it because in my opinion it does look much better.. but as it is.. SGSIII will be my new phone in a couple of months to give rest to my much appreciated htc desire :)
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
In terms of looks, here's my honest answer. The front, GS3 looks much better, the back HOX win's hands down. I must admit, the back of the GS3 is ugly as .... But good thing I usually/always lay it facing me lol
[Galaxy S III General] pewpewbangbang:
I prefer unibody.....admit battery is a bit small. Gets thru the day easily though. Companion core drains 0% during standby pretty much.

Storage.....most people don't even use as much as 32gb.....id say a select small minority actually use up all 32gb and need more. Plus flash internal is always going to be better than sd. Good to have the option tho most people wouldn't need it with 32gb already standard.

I like using the phones naked besides a screen protector being a must have.

I like touchwiz.....it works and is highly optimized. Ugly but works and is highly efficient and resource friendly. Everyone on xda flashes anyway, its the whole point of android.

Still think one x wins, besides Samsung software and SoC being better out the box. I've had the past 3 Samsung flagships and the Sgs 3 is kinda a dissapointment.

I think the new Sony flagship with krait pro will be the stunna and beat both HTC and Samsung in all categories. Screen, build quality, SoC, camera and battery.
[Galaxy S III General] avocco:
Your right once again. Its all about battery life, I thought I'd do a comparison with my Note and the One X, but the battery died before I even got a chance to use it. I mean what the flip is that?

I went into a shop and said I need a car charger to bring it back to life, do you know what he gave me? A pair of JUMP LEADS! So I say meh! And try juicing it up with my Car battery anyway, you know what happens! The son of a b!tch kills my Car.

I've got the One X in my hands now and am gonna try plugging it into the Local Power Grid, I wanna see what all the fuss is about. Here I G....
[Galaxy S III General] SiNJiN76:
Theey got one thing wrong. S3, according to the pictures. Does not have a micro Sim.
[Galaxy S III General] pewpewbangbang:
Update. I just hit 4 hours and 13 minutes screen on time with 14 hours on battery. This is after flashing new kernel from Franco, beast dev from galaxy nexus. And a new Rom at 80% battery. Should be able to hit over 5 hours screen time which ain't bad. What I got with fully optimized galaxy nexus, maybe almost 6 hrs actually on nexus.
[Galaxy S III General] chrisjcks:
Actually,

The HOX has:

Better screen

Better camera

Better design

So, mistake by Samsung maybe?

The screen is better on the HOX, end of! - stop chasing or looking for something that tells you differently - anyone can find a difference in opinion on the internet.

no pentile display in the world will beat an IPS Super LCD2 - This is fact, the sgs3 with its extremely over saturated colours (mainly green & yellow), it doesn't, & won't match up to the slcd2, all attendees of the London event have stated as much. (even on all android podcasts they also state the HOX screen to be better)

.... The fact your fishing for that one single lonely review that says differently to all the others, shows just how desperate you are for your fanboy phone to do well. LOL

The screen is the biggest & most important feature of any large smartphone, & HTC won this battle.

& early reviews of camera shots, comparisions if ya will, significantly show the One X camera to be much better in Various lighting conditions.

I noticed Samsung hardly mentioned the camera in London, they failed to mention its f2.6 sensor, it's no match for the HOX with its f2.0, which also has a dedicated image processing chip, instead they placed everyone's attention towards its features instead, the burst mode, the photos while recording etc - all sound too familiar to a previous device?

& design isn't subjective at all, that back cover on the sgs3 is disgusting & cheap, don't you have eyes?, the back looks cheaper than the original galaxy s, & the whole pebble phone design is soooo 10yrs ago.

But let's not skate over the fact that a whole bunch of the HOX has been copied & placed into the sgs3 - I never used to believe it when apple users said it, but damn - how much can Samsung copy from a phone, they even went as far as offering dropbox with the phone, just a larger amount lol - no wonder there was a delay in their announcement, shame on you.

Also - price is worse for the sgs3, the 16gb model is coming out at the same price the 32gb HOX arrived for sim-free customers.

The facts are there for all to see, yet some people on here are blinded to the fact purely for fanboyism reasons, - you have been infected with this bug, you are now a sheep too.

Personally, I ain't attached to nobody, & the screen, design & camera take up nearly all the phone, & HOX is better in all 3.

However, had Samsung produced what we all thought, non-pentile, 2gb ram, 12mp camera & 7mm (we all believed it when sammobile said it would be made with higher quality build, so-called quotes from CEO)- it would have destroyed its competition, but after seeing the announcement of the sgs3, I see absolutely no need to even get the phone now, sadly - disappointed.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
I'm glad this finally debunks the whole "brighter is better for outdoor viewing" BS.

"Another area where the screens differ is sunlight legibility - the HTC One X is very good for an LCD and the excellent brightness contributes to that, but the non-reflectivity of the AMOLED screen gives the Samsung Galaxy S III the edge. In fact, the Galaxy S III emerges from our tests as the best outdoor performer we have seen to date."

It's not just the brightness, it's everything from the glass all the way to the display.

The SGS3 uses Gorilla Glass 2 making it thinner allowing less light to be diffused through it.

"Both Samsung and HTC have turned to Corning to keep their lustrous screens safe. But the Galaxy S III uses second-gen Gorilla Glass while the One X sticks with the original. According to Corning, Glass 2 offers the same level of protection, though it's slimmer (this could be perhaps why the Galaxy S III is 0.3mm slimmer than the One X?)."
[Galaxy S III General] Intratech:
Fatality!
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
This sounds like a bunch of arrogance. The only FACT is that it surely wins when you magnify it by like X50.

Every previewer and reviewer out there has praised the SGS3 and it's screen saying that it has its benefits over the One X while the One X has its own benefits.

Quit BSing and trying to spread facts around which are subjective to the user.

If the SLCD-2 had better contrast, was using a better glass or the same glass along with all it's other perks then we could accept it is better as a FACT.

BUT TOO BAD. The One X uses a thicker glass making it's outdoor visibility lower due to light diffusion in it's thicker glass and doesn't have as much contrast.

Quit using the word "fact" when there aren't any. GSMArena is not the only review site that has praised and acknowledged the SGS3's screen. Quit trolling

[Galaxy S III General] avocco:
I've never seen a post so full of "fanboyism" in my entire life. The review speaks for itself, it was not done by kids in the playground BUT by professionals who review phones for a living.

It was not biased in anyway, as a matter of fact they clearly toned it down at the end. Had they stated the truth the fanboys without a pacemaker fitted would have been rolling on the floor gasping for air.
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
Fan boys are of two types,

1. some do it for purpose

2. some cant agree with the point "their phone is inferior in some departments"

if you people look at the hox defenders they will simply talk about 2 points

* the screen is better

* the design is better

they simply dont have any other points in their favor to talk about :D I would have went for HOX if it satisfied me but it didnt(fanboys dont jump on me , its my personal opinion :p)
[Galaxy S III General] Basil3:
I would add the camera to that list. The HOX seems to have better optics, just need to sort out the software side of things. The daylight comparison photos in the review are a bit misleading, much better light in the SGS3 shots.

I can't see how anyone would be disappointed with either phone though.
[Galaxy S III General] chrisjcks:
They even felt the need to mention the lock screen on the SGS3, yet didn't even mention the numerous lock screens that sense has...

If I can see pentile, GSM can see pentile & android central can see pentile, why do people say it needs 50x magnification to see? - strange.

The FACT is, its pentile, lower ppi and has a screen that is 60%+ less brightness, everyone who has reported from London has said the HOX screen is better.

They also started their review saying the advantages of the SGS3 are software related, then later in the review mention the siri voice copy thing isn't that good, again - strange.
[Galaxy S III General] android_master:
That's exactly the point I am saying,let SGS III come and then put One X and SIII side by side and see the largeeeee difference.

Software & Samsung they can't go along side by side,number 1 cheaters,almost all those software tweaks apart from the gestures will eventually be ported to likes of S2 & Note.
[Galaxy S III General] chrisjcks:
Let me add some more disagreements to the pro-sgs3 review....

I'm not pro HTC or pro Samsung (im pro android), but I do see a lot of rubbish in their review.
[Galaxy S III General] leith51:
Im will admit to be a htc fan and was really looking forward to the hox for the past month I have had 7 replacements I finally gave up and now waiting for the sgs3

Yes the hox looks nice and Erm Erm..... That's about as much as I can say on good points

The bad

Build quality is a shot in the dark had 2 what had good quality with no faults

Display clear bright but to be honest like all htcs to bloody bright in the dark

Camera got beat by an 18month old Samsung windows phone test was open cam take pic upload to fb the time it took was equal the upload was slower than Samsung and the pic quality was better on the Samsung

The power saving chip only 1 handset it worked on

The heat it produces is shocking bad not only does it heat the back it adds to the heat at the front to the LCD screen

Battery life once again shot in the dark best was 18 hours light use worst was 5 hours light use

All 7 had software faults screen flicker screen corruption

Now remember I compared 7 hoxs against each other so they not that good
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
yes , you are right!! gsmarena,androidpolice,phonearena,techradar,anandtech and many are simply lying :D:p

[Galaxy S III General] funb0b:
I think this Sums up the whole screen issue quite nicely.

Source: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s_iii_vs_htc_one_x-review-759p9.php

The Samsung Galaxy S III has a slight edge in processing, the Mali-400MP GPU nosing out the HTC One X ULP GeForce. It's also the one with the better screen: the 4.8" Super AMOLED has superior contrast, viewing angles, sunlight legibility and, thanks to the screen saturation modes, greater flexibility.It does use a PenTile matrix, but it hardly makes any difference at those ppi levels .
[Galaxy S III General] ale0crysis:
Come on please... we are tired to read all the same bullshits...
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
@ funbob

but some people here wont allow to sum them up, you know why! :p
[Galaxy S III General] Basil3:
Yeah, they put down as a pro of the SGS3 is it has a bigger screen. 4.8" over 4.7". I'm glad that major difference is important enough to make the list.
[Galaxy S III General] m33ts4k0z:
Hi Chris, how are you feeling today?

Noone can see pentile.

GSMarena don't state "we can see the pentile, LOOK! Its there!" All they say is the same as everyone say on every review that I've read so far:

"The screen looks gorgeous and you won't notice the pentile unless you look really closely."

and the exact words:

"It's also the one with the better screen: the 4.8" Super AMOLED has superior contrast, viewing angles, sunlight legibility and, thanks to the screen saturation modes, greater flexibility. It does use a PenTile matrix, but it hardly makes any difference at those ppi levels."

Pentile is much more of a stereotype than an issue. Stop using the SUPER DUPER ICDSPSDP LCD23453 as an advantage. The advantage is in your head.

The regular user will just see a beautiful screen. On both phones yes truth to be said, but I personally like the colours on sAmoled better.

[Galaxy S III General] h O r n:
I usually don't write messages in this forum but I'll tell you what helped me choose the winner for me.

The last thing I care of, is being a "fanboy" of one company.. This companies' purpose in the end, is to make money. Our purpose, is to check which of them has the best product.

Right now, I'm the owner of the first SGS, and looking to buy a new phone. So before the SGS III was announced, HOX was my favorite. But there's a reason for that. This phone is super fast, beautiful looking, awesome screen.

But then I thought to my self (and I think everyone should do this before buying a phone) - what do I need the most of this phone? For my everyday usage, what's the thing that bothers me the most?

The answer was simple - battery life. When it comes to this, SGS III was definitely my winner. After using the SGS for 2 years, I can easily tell that the battery has been a huge issue for me.

By the way, I must say, that I usually tend to buy phone by its design, and SGS III wasn't my preferable device at the beginning. But I believe that my high expectations, made me think that (AKA The iPhone 5 Effect). Because I pretty like it now.

And ANYWAY, eventually, I'm not going to use the phone without a suitable case/protector, so its design isn't a big matter.

And about the Touchwiz? AAah come on. Who's going to buy phone without changing rom the moment he owns it?!.

I also guess that for the average users, who don't know how to change a rom, the Touchwiz won't be an issue from the beginning.

So that's how I chose my next phone (:
