[Galaxy S III General] Tsukurimashou:
Hello! first of all I know there is tons of threads and articles about HOX vs GS3, I'm not here to debate which one is the best phone ever I know they are both awesome I just need help to know which one is the best for me and you can help me by giving me your personal opinion on what will follow.

I made this thread because while I think I'd be really happy with either GS3 or One X I'm not throwing 600-700$ away before I'm sure which to choose and I wont regret my purchase or be thinking "I should have bought the other one", I'll keep this phone for at least 2 years and I wanna know which fits the best for me (and my needs).

Please don't come here to comment: "Samsung suck" or "HTC suck" "look at benchmarks" or other stupid trolling comments like that, if you need to say the main concurrent of your phone sucks to convince yourself your phone is good, I think you have a problem.

Now I'll just tell how what kind of phone I'll need, I'll be using it mainly for web browsing over 3G, I'll also use it to watch animes (with subs), youtube videos and maybe streams, MP3 and games (probably more emulators than crappy gameloft games with a bluetooth gamepad because I just hate to play games with virtual buttons on screen...), I need decent battery life (ideally 5-6h on screen time for web browsing watching video and some gaming)

Now I need your opinion on the pros and cons list I made for both devices (some of them are personal I'm not saying sense is better than touchwiz I'm just saying I prefer it, as for the design it's my personal opinion):

(if you see "(?)" it means I'm not sure about that (like something I read on forums but with no source, could be true but not sure about it))

Please give your opinion about the phone you own not about what you heard or read somewhere (I'm talking about people *****ing about the other phone while they haven't even tested it), I want honest feedback, if you own or owned both phones I'd like to know why you kept one instead of the other

I'll post this on both forums (HTC and Samsung) to see feedback from both GS3 and One X users.

HTC one X:

Pros:

-Design

-Sense 4.0 (really love the UI of sense)

-Screen

-Perfs

-HTC updates frequently (?)

-Battery life idle

-Text adapting in web browser when zooming in

-Playstation mobile (?)

-Tegra games (?)

Cons:

-Not optimized (Tegra3 driver still running on gingerbread kernel not ICS, sense using a lot of ram and sometimes laggy (?) may change with updates)

-Multitasking (refresh everytime you switch from an app to another, really annoying when in the middle of a webpage or a youtube video but fixable with script and custom roms)

-Heats a lot when gaming

-1080p recording @ 20ish FPS (fixable with updates?)

-Hard to root (and voids warranty...)

-No USB OTG (yet, may come with updates)

-No S-OFF (yet)

Neutral:

-Battery life (may get better with updates can also get better with custom roms / kernels and tweaking)

-Sense laggy sometimes (?)

-Audio

-No SD card

-Cannot replace battery (in case the battery dies you just have to buy another one?...)

Hopes:

-Nvidia to release soon the ICS kernel update for Tegra3 that should boost perfs and also gives the One X better battery life

-OTG USB update cause since One X don't have micro SD support with this update the phone would support USB flashdrives etc... So a must in my opinion

-Update to fix sense glitch and general performance to use less ram etc...

-S-OFF

Fears:

-I'v read something about HTC not doing really well lately, I'm afraid this could affect updates for the One X

-I'm also afraid that as soon as they release a new phone they just drop the one X

-Also about the Tegra3 drivers for ICS kernel Nvidia could release it in a month as they could release it in a year... Also people are saying it will improve the perfs and the battery life but maybe it will change nothing...

Samsung GS3:

Pros:

-Perfs

-Multitasking

-Battery life

-Audio

-Already optimized

-Doesn't heat even when gaming (?)

-SD card

-OTG USB

-Will have a bigger community, more roms etc... (?)

-Easy to root

-1080p recording @ 30 FPS

-Better blacks (screen)

-You can replace the battery

Cons:

-Touchwiz

-Slow and rare Samsung updates (?)

-Battery life idle

Neutral:

-Design

-Screen

-Saturated colors (screen)

-S-voice and others "features" are nothing but gimmicks

Hopes:

-Sense 4.0 being ported to GS3 (without multitasking issues and optimised)

-I hope Samsung will do frequent updates for the device to fix bugs and keep the phone updated.

Fears:

-One of my bigest fear is HTC to fix the One X right after I buy the GS3...

-As for the One X I fear Samsung to not update the phone or drop it as soon as they release a new device...

Thanks for your time and sorry for my english.
