I had the international One x sold it because of screen getting yellow spots and it was overheating. Just got the GN and is far better smooth and very fast. Faster then HTC One X. And its still stock.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dimgl:
How is it mediocre hardware?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] side808:
lol @ the galaxy nexus being a "better phone".
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] enigma00:
Mediocre is a little too harsh, but the GNex is one generation old now.

The Snapdragon S4 on the One XL is a beast compared to the OMAP4 (Cortex A9). The SAMOLED HD display is nice, but the SLCD on the HTC is just superb. The One XL also does LTE. The construction on the One XL is very nicely done and the camera is incredibly nice and fast.

The biggest gripe about the One XL is non-replaceable battery (and perhaps the HTC Sense skin).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] louis.b:
Because it is made by Samsung, the world largest plastic consumer.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
I personally like sense4 when its modded a little bit :P I have the gnex and the Rogers hox... The one x is clearly a better phone just in build quality alone. I kept my gnex for tinkering and when the next big release of Android comes out:)

Seriously, with posts like this you lose all credibility.

I returned my one x the other day and I don't miss it or regret it. With the WiFi issue and the horrible battery life the phone was a rip off. The sad thing is that manager of the ATT store I took it back too agreed. He said they sold 28 units since the release date and mine made 12th return since the release date...and he went as far as to shoe me the returned units in the back store room. I'm back on my vivid and going to wait for the new GS3 or order the galaxy nexus. That's what I get for falling for the hype over a new release phone...which turns out that's all the One X was....hype. The manager said the that ATT corporate is already told them to drop the price to 149.00 starting in late June which is the quickest they have ever dropped the price of a new phone. That says a lot to me. I'm just glad I was able to get a refund and he was kind enough to waive the restocking fee and some is able to get the system to show that I still have an upgrade to use.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Lilshaun:
Not sure if serious...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vinuneuro:
I'm returning mine as well. Doesn't feel great in the hand for a phone this size (too flat and wide), battery life isn't great compared to the GSIII, call audio quality isn't great compared to what I'm used to. I'm returning mine this week, will wait and see how the GSIII is when it arrives. Having said that it's a great phone, one that would be spectacular (materials, build, screen, Sense 4.0) if the GSIII wasn't as good.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Dxtra:
Don't see all the smoothness the new S4 snapdragons chip suppose to bring to the table. The Galaxy nexus was way better in this department. The one x still lag.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nugzo:
Its so funny that everyone (everyone that is talking ****) has lost all faith and we havent even had an update yet.. I've owned the majority of flagship phones and this hox is by far the greatest. I'm on the leaked 1.88 ruu and i havent had a dropped call or data issue or any of the crazy network issues since installing this leak. At least wait untill after the first update before you pass judgment. All phones have bugs at launch. i guarantee you the GSIII will have its own set of issues and bugs. Watch, these cats will be back once the bugs get ironed out..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] cloudyphiz:
Mine is going to go back today as well. The camera sucks, build quality is poor (mine has a rattle at the top), no multitasking is annoying, audio quality is poor, battery life on lte is abysmal, etc. I hate the thought of using my iPhone 4 again but at least the GS3 will be out soon.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] curly9:
I own the hox and the gnex and the screen is better on the hox and i can leave the mobile network on this phone and still get 2-4 more hours more then the gnex. This phone in imo better than the e4gt and I don't need to wait for quad core phone cause I believe this is fast enough for anything that i do on it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] roscoejackson:
I'm keeping mine. This phone is tits.

The truth is, in this day and age people like to nitpick and complain. They go on an exchange carousel looking perfection (in their minds). Sick people. Maybe television and microwaves nuked people's brains.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] slippers67:
All of you guys that have gone back to a galaxy nexus...I pity you. Prior to the One X, I had no less than three different galaxy nexus phones, and they were terrible. Just a few of the problems I had:

1. Signal constantly dropped out, making it impossible to make calls or use data. One of my units experienced this. This is widespread and quite known. You'll see people having to replace their phones to fix this.

2. Microphone would randomly cut out midway through a call, and the only way to resolve it was by hanging up and calling the person again. This is a major issue: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24019. All three of my phones experienced this, and was the main reason I gave up on the galaxy nexus.

3. The display is garbage. It has super low maximum brightness, and the color changes as you adjust the brightness. One phone I had was OK, while the other two had variances across the panels and would go from deep purple hue to a teal-ish blue hue as the brightness increased.

4. The phone is exceedingly hot during calls or data use. To the point where you do not want it touching your face. It has nothing to do with the display, as all the heat is up at the top of the phone where the processor and radios are located. All three units I had suffered from this.

5. The call quality is horrible. The speakerphone is absolutely terrible. My two year old Evo 4g has better sounding call quality and a much better speakerphone. All three units I had suffered from this.

Display and heat issues aside, I would have probably kept it, except for the terrible call quality, microphone problems, and data/signal issues. Having a problem with 1 or 2 phones...I might think I was just unlucky with QC on Samsung's part. 3 in a row? Forget it.

Oh, and if you're on verizon, the latest 4.0.4 OTA does not fix any of the problems, nor do any of the custom 4.0.4 roms.

I'm actually amazed that people still tout the galaxy nexus as a great phone, and it has such positive reviews on the big news sites. Spend 5 minutes searching the forums and you'll see tons of people that have gone through 3-4 phones to find a good one, along with a mountain of problems.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arcadia310:
Seriously man. It almost makes me not want to read these forums at all. Hearing these horror stories of people going through 6 units and they're all faulty gives you the impression the phone is trash. I'd like to see how such obsessive and nitpicky people function in society
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] robstunner:
So battery life isn't as great as the s3 yet you don't own one.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Sirgatory:
My phone has back light bleed, a dead pixel, AND the loudspeaker sounds like garbage.

Guess what, I'm STILL keeping it. Why? Because its a god damn cell phone. It fits great in the hand, it does what its supposed to do, reliably; and it WOWs my customers with its design.

All flagship phones have their problems at release. The phone has barely been out for a month.

I think consumers are just becoming pickier with their android phones. Going into an android phone you should KNOW that they come with issues. If you can't accept that, then go back to iPhone club. Just look at the skyrocket and its display problems. Everyone was complaining for the first 2 months. Finally ICS leaks dropped and everything took off. There were good amounts of R/Es but in the end it all worked out.

Go ahead guys, return your phone because you have to retoggle your wifi every once in a while. Its the anal people like you who we won't miss in this community when this device takes off.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kleeman7:
That rattle is the little motor that makes it vibrate. Have you seen a clear Xbox, or ps3 controller? Same thing just smaller. Mine has been great, best phone I have owned. I'm still running 100% stock, and very happy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Arcadia310:
These people shouldn't be labeled as consumers. They're vocal enthusiasts who don't represent the interests of the market in any way shape or form. It's people like them who return the phone 8 times and give the phone a bad name to the general consumer out there.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Aldiggi:
Agreed!!!!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] corythug:
Ive always been on the Samsung side of things, gs1, gs2 , ns4g , gnex. It's humorous to me switching sides and seeing the exact same thing. Both have people that love there device of course. But then you have those who don't...EG

Sammy owners who are unsatisfied complain about the phone, dev, battery etc and compare it to HTC and how much better HTC is.

While here on the HTC side of things we have unsatisfied owners comparing to Sammy and how much better they are.

All of this seriously makes me lol. But at the same time, I'm tired of seeing it. No phone or manufacturer is perfect. All have strengths and flaws, that's the way it is. All get better over time, be it official updates or homebrew. I've owned several flagship phones and there are always issues and people trading them in 3 minutes after buying it because they wanted a horizontal battery icon not a vertical. I think we should have a faux consumer section under each phone, where these people can vent and others don't have to read it, and shortly there after an 86 page argument of Sammy vs HTC vs moto vs LG vs etc. Lol sorry for the long post guys..
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lyall29:
I used to really like HTC and sense. My first android was the HTC inspire and it was a good phone. Then I went to Samsung and purchased the international note, and it was great! I heard about the one x and sold my note to buy the one x. That was the biggest mistake of my life. If the HTC inspire had a HD screen I would rather have that than the one x. Anyways I took the one x back yesterday and bought the at&t galaxy note and now I am happy again. IMO the note has a better screen, I know its not better on paper but I like it better. The note is plenty fast enough for me. The one x was the worst phone I've ever had, although the community of people here are really nice and the devs are doing a really good job with their roms trying to make it better I could not take it anymore and returned it. Good luck to everyone here, hopefully things go well for you. To the OP I would definitely recommend the Note over the one x.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ricktat:
I was on day 30 yesterday and switched to the Note. I ended up missing Samsung along with some odd One X issues.

Random reboots

Pandora skipping songs and buffering

Bluetooth would never stay connected.

I did love the camera... And the screen... but other than that the positives didn't out weigh the minor issues and lack of SD card. Doing ROMS without permanent storage was my real concern there. It wasnt the extra space.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wellsey1126:
I'm going to keep it. Even with the ****ty signal n WiFi. Once it's fixed this phone will be worth it
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lucidlyseen:
wow, I'm pretty amazed by the negative comments here for a phone that is 3 weeks old. Almost all the issues here are software related and given time will be fixed. The hardware IMO is very nice and I look forward to where this phone will go in the future.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] corythug:
With Pandora last update my phone hasn't skipped yet, the update notes did mention some performance enhancements. Fingers crossed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wellsey1126:
Agreed... The thread was not created to be to negative more to get the opinion of others
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
We're suffering from early adopter syndrome. I admit to considering returning the phone and even ordered the international version. I returned the International immediately because upon ordering it I had instant buyer's remorse and was unable to cancel the order.

I'm keeping this device because even running bone unrooted stock it's the best android phone you can buy on AT&T right now.

After the phone's kernel source is released and especially if HTC puts the bootloader unlock in effect like they eventually did with the Vivid, things will really take off.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lyall29:
You asked people what they thought was a better phone and basically what we would do. It really comes down to what you really want. If your happy with the one x that's fine. A phone is a very personal item, that's why there are so many to choose from.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dimgl:
You make very valid points. But I think at the end of the day it all comes down to preference. I loved my One X and I will be following its development closely, but there were too many dealbreakers for me. Sure, it has LTE, the new S4, and a fantastic screen, but the build quality was subpar. Radio issues, light bleeding, front camera stuck in a crevice, no removable battery and hardware buttons were just a few things that hampered my experience.

Is it a good phone? Yes. Does that make the Gnex a bad phone? No. All phones have their problems and everyone has their preference.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] upyouratrix:
Well said! I have a Skyrocket. Loved that phone. Sure, the screen had issues (replaced mine twice and even sent it to Samsung) and guess what? I still kept it! The phone is awesome and I am so sad that it broke from a 2 feet fall :( But I'm getting a HOX as soon as they're back in stock and I'm sure I'm going to love it even more than I did my SR. I'm currently using my N1, which is still working fairly well. I'm not locked into one manufacturer. I just pick which phone I feel is best and that suits my needs.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mlin:
It's a good phone but the camera and screen ate quite underwhelming
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] side808:
You're kidding right? Comparing battery life to a phone that isn't even out yet?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] droidiac13:
I'm keeping mine as it has been the best phone I've had. Had the G-Nex, but the low quality camera, battery life and screen didn't compare to my Epic 4G Touch. I just didn't care for the phone. The HOX is by no means perfect, but in my opinion it's still the best phone on the market. Everyone has their opinion and is entitled to it. No one phone will ever satisfy everyone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vinuneuro:
Compared to the Exynos GSIII. S4 GSIII should be as good or better. This is aside the issue of not being able to swap in another battery if needed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mgfjd:
ditto I love my phone too
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dimgl:
You're being a crybaby.

1. I have had no problems with signal dropping out whatsoever. I have never had a dropped call or any dead zones in my area where my phone simply could not perform correctly.

2. I have spoken over 40 hours on this phone to date and I still have not received this issue.

3. IMHO, the Gnex's colors are extremely vivid and the PenTile is barely noticeable when you're using the phone. While the brightness does not compare to the One X's, it's still an impressive screen.

4. The Gnex only heats up when it's being charged and put to rigorous use, like all other phones, including my iPhone 4 and my HTC One X.

5. I just had my first speakerphone call today and it was goddamned perfect. Best speakerphone experience to date. I was lying on my bed with my girl and we both spoke to the caller perfect, even while she was at a different distance. I didn't get any of the bull**** I'd get with my One X where I'd put my finger by the headset and the screen would turn off and on, making it impossible to multitask with my phone while I'm speaking on it.

It's known the Verizon variant is plagued with issues. Don't blame Samsung, blame Verizon. The GSM equivalent is such a sexy phone and I can't see myself owning anything else. I'm getting close to 4h screen time and I'm loving it. This is the last post I'm gonna leave in regards to this phone, because this is One X general.

My suggestion is: if you paid retail for the One X and it gives you problems, return it. You should never pay $550 dollars for a flawed product. Hardware specs is never good enough to justify a flawed user experience.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] louis.b:
I dont have this phone yet, currently using a sensation XL, but I love it too. :D
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vinuneuro:
I drove 40min to go look an SIII today to make sure I'm doing the right thing in returning the One X. I'm 100% sure it is now. Most should still be in 30 day return window still. I highly suggest you try to find a SIII locally to look at. There is no competition at all between the two. Samsung has won this one by a mile.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] lyall29:
How much are you having to pay for the SIII?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vinuneuro:
I only went to look at the phone. Since I'm in an LTE market I'll be waiting for ATT to release it. Hopefully sooner than later.

The place I went to is a small local store and pre-sold the first shipment (from which I looked at a unit). They're getting a 100 more on Wednesday or Friday and will be selling them for $800. Expansys has it listed for $700.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
I don't suppose you want to give any particular reasons why? "It's just better I swear" isn't terribly convincing.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
At this point the only thing I think the US version of the SGS III has going for it is an SD Card slot.

The US version will have the same processor we have and a Pentile screen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] brian6685:
How do you know what the ATT us version will have or not have?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
because the go to chip when your quad core chip doesn't support LTE is the Qualcom Snapdragon S4 we have. Telus has the same bands as At&T for LTE and the Telus phone has the snapdragon

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sams...-32GB-flavors-pre-orders-starting-now_id30735
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Silellak:
It might also have 2 GB of RAM (some variants do), but it's impossible to say what the US variants will get, one way or the other.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] brian6685:
I wish we could find out exactly what the ATT variant is gonna be
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gunnyman:
it will hit the FCC soon enough and when it does we'll know.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] vinuneuro:
I didn't want to start a whole thing here..

The biggest difference is ergonomics and I'm surprised it hasn't received more praise for it. It just feels much (much) better in the hand and the usability is improved that much because of it. I can get to everything on the screen with one hand with ease whereas with the One X I am reaching sometimes. They both have very large screens, but in Samsung it doesn't feel it. I have avg to large size guy hands.

I know what the specs say as far as weight, but the Samsung feels a lot lighter. I have no explanation for this one.

The build on the Samsung is very good. It is very solid and probably as good as possible for a phone with a removable battery and expandable storage. There's absolutely nothing to complain about on this front.

Screen is a wash imo and will be subjective. I prefer cooler displays even on monitors so the Samsung's inherent trait doesn't bother me. The One X is more accurate, but it is on the warmer side. Overall the One X has a slight edge, but it is slight. Frankly the display on the SIII would have to be close to unusable for me to not pick it over the One X just because of the difference in ergonomics.

Sense 4.0 is much better. There's nothing more to this. But this is Android..

LTE has been the norm for phones this caliber for a while now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] trichrome1:
Just keep the phone :)

if anything, keep it, and buy an SIII and you can switch between the 2. I know I was also considering the same thing, to sell my one x and grab the SIII, but I am really happy with my HOX. I just think the SIII will have more devs working on roms in the end. But for now, CleanRom running on my One X is making me really happy, and my phone is already way more enjoyable to use on a day to day basis than my iphone was. I'm not going to return my HOX (already past the 30 days anyways), and I'm not going to sell it, I'll probably just purchase an SIII when I have a few extra bucks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] wangtang2k:
I'm returning this phone... back into my pocket after posting this. I know some users have reported that their handsets are acting up, but as posted before, it's still a brand new phone with lots of potential that had yet to be unleashed. I can see people returning their phones for hardware issues and QC ones as well, but returning it because of being too nitpicky or demanding someone give the user a new device because he/she chose to modify the phone by rooting and unlocking the bootloader then realizing it wasn't to one's liking is just a bit much. I mean what's next? Throwing a tantrum after waking up and finding the phone didn't do the damn laundry or made breakfast? Will the excuse of "well...I thought this was an awesome device...but I didn't like the way it was staring at me" become a valid reason to take it back?.Coming from an Inspire 4G and a GN, the HOX is what I've been looking for in the Android department.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] robstunner:
I've considered an exchange with a note, but its not because of any major problems. More of the minor pluses of the note.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skizzy034:
I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but it took quite a few months for any development to start for the Note. It's still less than a month since this phone has been out and it has more mods and roms than the Note had in 3 months. I sold my Note and bought this. I couldn't be happier with that decision. I've said this before also that the people and experience within the Note community was awful. A lot of flaming, name calling, unwillingness to help. It may have changed and gotten better but that was my experience. My advice would be to keep the One X. I think it's the best phone on the market right now. The Evo 4g LTE looks pretty good but I can't stand that two toned back.
