[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
It was the right ticket to success for me! This phone is probably the best thing i have ever owned haha (i'm still a student).

All of the major downsides that were posted in other professional reviews have been non-issues for me really. The non-expandable storage is not an issue for me since i don't have that much media that i need to put on my phone. The non-removable battery is also not an issues since i never swapped out the battery of my desire Z anyway. Sense 4 itself is not a hindrance once you de-bloat it and in fact, it's actually very very fast with custom ROMs.

I also seem to have been lucky enough to receive a One X without any of the many hardware faults that have been reported by others due to HTC's lack of quality control at first.

Being honest, i don't think anyone could regret getting either the One X or the sIII though. They're both outstanding phones in their own regards and i'd say that either one of them is definitely worth upgrading to from the HTC Vision. Obviously though, if someone asked me which one i'd personally chose, i'd pick the One X any day ;) haha.
[G2 and Desire Z General] mazdarati2:
wait are you talking about the RAM?
[G2 and Desire Z General] kbeezie:
ROM not RAM, having 32GB RAM in a phone would be kind of ridiculous.

PS: The HTC One X has 1GB RAM.

For those who are still having confusion over the two (though read-only-memory and random-access-memory hardly apply the way they do now days):

RAM : your temp memory that active running processes use (like RAM in your computer).

ROM : Storage, much like the hard drive in your computer, when the device is off all the data stored is still retained even if the power were completely shut off, typically your OS, cache, system-data and user data is stored on the ROM (especially for phones that don't have an alternate means of storage like the SD slot).
[G2 and Desire Z General] MIkeRD03:
i looked around, too, for a possible substitude for one of my two Desire Z and I can say I am not this demanding for what I need to do with my mobile. But there are tree points where I never would make a compromise:

My mobile has to have 1. a hardware keyboard, 2. the battery has to be changeable and 3. the phone need to be rooted.

I guess its is clear that iOS never was or will be on my personal list and even the HTC OneX fails in two point. Is there an alternative out there?

The Droid 4 if you are in America. I wanted one but alas it doesn't support the 3G and HSPA bands that Three use here in the UK (apparently).

[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
No no no, I was talking about the storage on the phone that can be used by the system, data and user partitions separately. The phone itself has 1 gigabyte of RAM.
[G2 and Desire Z General] MIkeRD03:
No, I already checked the Droid 4. Seams to be a good choice on first glance, but here in Germany I do need 3G and AFAIK rooting is a problem with Motorola and the Droid 4 in special.

I guess that's the reason for this very active comunity around the DesireZ/G2 - it is still without alternatives, even after years now. But it is amazing to see what devs are squeezing out of this "old" device. Reminds me of an well known computer named C64..

headset

thank you very much for this useful review.

how about the headset? beats or HTC ?
[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
You're welcome, the headset that comes with the phone is a small set of HTC earphones that are small and sleek and come with a mic. That said, their audio quality is not bad but definitely nothing outstanding. I usually listen to things on my Sennheiser HD 215 headset and i'm quite used to the natural sounds that my headset produces. The headphones that HTC bundled with the One X sound quite muddy in comparison but at least they come with a mic and they get the job done.

Also, i chose not to mention this in the review as it is strictly related to software, but i will mention now that Beats audio is no big deal and is definitely not anything special. When using my Sennheiser headset, i always disable Beats audio as it brings little to no improvement to most things whether you're listening to music or watching tv shows (of which i do a lot of both). In fact, when watching tv shows, Beats audio just makes everything quieter for some reason. My judgement of Beats audio is a bit unfair though as it is meant to be used with Beats headphones for the "perfect" listening experience, but i'm definitely not about to shell out $250 (Beats Solo) or more to get headphones that sound like the stock Apple earphones xD.

I hope that helps. Also when you want to thank people on xda, there's a thanks button under each post which you can hit to show your thanks ;P haha. So if you find any person's comments or posts useful, hit that thanks button.
[G2 and Desire Z General] captainreynolds:
Awesome, extremely well done review. Hits all the relevant points for us G2 users, unlike any review I've read anywhere else. I may be getting this phone (can't believe I'm saying that!) now. My one question is - is there a way for me to be sure that I am getting one of the newer HTC One X models? In other words, one without a hardware defect?

I hit thanks on your posts, magic, and thank you!
[G2 and Desire Z General] santajin:
:confused:
[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
You're very welcome! Over on the One X board, they've documented all the hardware issues that the One X has faced so far. Basically, you *should* get a One X without any hardware defaults by now, but it would be best for you to check for all of the different hardware defaults before unlocking the bootloader and rooting so that you can be safe.

One thing that i did forget to add to the review is that the One X does not have true S-OFF yet. You have to flash ROMs the HTC dev unlock way, which means that you flash the ROM and then you flash the boot image each time. You get used to it after a while and then it's not so bad. In the mean time, many devs are working at getting true S-OFF for the One X.

HTC claims to have fixed the hardware defaults that were brought up in the media though. So as long as you're getting a new One X, then it should be free of any issues. My one came out perfect and i haven't seen anyone complaining of any hardware issues recently so you should be all good.

Here is a list of things to look out for when buying a One X.

Also, if there's anything else you wanna know about the One X, you can find it here in this massive superthread of information!.
[G2 and Desire Z General] skui:
It seems we could hope for an HTC One Z ...

i saw something about that on cellphonebeat site

( sorry, i'm a new user here - not a new follower :P - and i can't post external links )

:)
[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
Unfortunately HTC isn't interested in making qwerty keyboards anymore. They're also not interested in updated their old flagship phones anymore either :(. Hopefully the One X will at least see two major OS updates before HTC gets lazy again like they did with the Desire HD and our HTC Vision.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Steven How:
I just hope they come out with phone with replaceable battery and micro sd slot again :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] magic_android:
Yeah, hopefully they will learn that lesson. The lack of a micro sd card slot is not a big issue for me with my One X since i have nearly 32gb of storage on it, but the non-user replaceable battery seems like it will be an issue in the long run since my contract with my One X goes for two years. HTC to have somewhat selective hearing when it comes to the actions they take for their products. It's a shame that they don't treat their older products with the same respect and loyalty that they treat their new products with.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Steven How:
True story,hope HTC hear to the consumer needs :rolleyes:
[G2 and Desire Z General] Indiwiz:
thanks for this, i think im gonna get the One X+ if it comes to tmobile.
[G2 and Desire Z General] xxx_1910:
that's very strange cause main US service providers are interested in such devices

maybe HTC just CAN'T do it well as we (desire z users) can see

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Running a WinMo app that was so close to the core of the OS is unlikely to work on WP7. However, it's possible that the app's source may reveal how such an app could be re-written on WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magpir:
hmm can u do that?

i beleive wp7 is also based on win mobile?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
WP7 is not based on WinMo. Both WP7 and WinMo are based on WinCE, but WP7 uses a much newer verion of WinCE than any WinMo version did.

In the unlikely event that I find myself without anything more pressing to do, yes, I can go hunt through the Settings apps and ee what happens when you slide those toggle switches. Right now, though, I don't have the time to spare, and I've got a backlog of projects.
