[HTC One X+] daytontp:
I went by my local AT&T store on my way home form work to look at a One X+. I spent about 20 minutes using the device on the stores WiFi network. I have a Galaxy Nexus (unrooted stock Google Play device) with a AT&T sim in it, which I bought just after Google IO 2012.

My first impression is that the speed difference should have no bearing on whether you buy a One X+ or a Nexus 4. The Android UI and software experience differences between the stock Nexus UI and what is on the One X+ is !!VERY NOTICEABLE!! I do not mean speed, I mean the way the OS is setup. I really like the stock Android experience and it would take a lot for me to get used to and/or like the Sense UI skin on the One X+. I will say the 64GB is tempting, and a friend of mine has a Nexus 4 and the One X+ is a nicer looking and feeling phone.

Also, I know there are likely factors at play, but I did not get the impression the One X+ was faster to interact with the UI than my stock Galaxy Nexus. I know full well it is, and I am sure there was something slowing the One X+ down. But, if someone was to walk into an AT&T store and play with the One X+ I was, they would not think it was fast. In fact, some apps were really slow, like the browser. My Galaxy Nexus was faster with Chrome on 3G, than the One X+ on WiFi.

My 2 cents, any speed difference either way between the Nexus 4 and One X+ are not the deciding factor. The software is, then maybe 4G and storage capacity, and speed would be last of this list.

And the brand
[HTC One X+] entropism:
I know that AOSP will come to the AT&T One X+ eventually, so I'm not worried much between software differences.

Plusses for the HOX+:

Better screen, more durable device, better storage

Plusses for the N4:

Better software NOW, on screen buttons (I love them), wireless charging (After owning a Lumia 920, wireless charging is AMAZING)

I'm leaning towards NOT trading the HOX+ for the N4, but it's still a tossup for me.
[HTC One X+] baste07:
How does wireless charging work
[HTC One X+] entropism:
Place the phone on the wireless charging pad, and it charges. Take it off and it stops. Simple really, and one of those things you never think you need (and might actually scoff at) until you have it. Not having to worry about damaging the Micro USB port, being able to literally grab & go, being able to blindly answer a phone call while you're sleeping and not worry about breaking anything... It's wonderful.
[HTC One X+] seanyuan62:
The only downside is that you can't really browse, call, or text while the phone is charging which I find myself doing quite often.
[HTC One X+] baste07:
that's a very good point

also is the charging pad included in the phone package?
[HTC One X+] davidsteele1975:
No, not in the UK at least.

I had a Palm device with a Touchstone and it was wonderfully us able right until it needed charge and I wanted to check something online. I could remove the Palm USB charger from the Touchstone and plug the device in, which is less elegant I admit but still works just fine.

It isn't a deal breaker for me but it is nice to have and once you are used to it, it's hard to go back!

In the end I went with the Nexus 4. I don't believe I can go wrong with either device so went with what I wanted rather than what was sensible.
[HTC One X+] bushvin:
HTC has awesome widgets? I must be dreaming.

I wanted to buy the N4 first as well, but LG decided not to sell the phone in Belgium.

So I went for my #2 phone.

never regretted it.

I did root it immediately, as , hum how would I phrase this... Sense sucks bigtime. It even crashed within the first 4 hours I had the phone.

So I rooted it and put CM10 on it (I'm actually trying out CM10.1 right now), and loved it ever since.

Serously. HOX+ is meant to be rooted and flashed with CM!
[HTC One X+] Mike3of3:
There is some really interesting and useful info on this thread as I decide if this is my next handset.

My upgrade is due in in a week or 2, and this is currently my first choice. I like the N4, but the glass issues are putting me off as I don't like to use cases
[HTC One X+] emerald123:
Guys battery life and heating issues on htc one x +???...Are these rumours true???
[HTC One X+] entropism:
If you really need to charge & browse, you can use the cable if you want. Never really became an issue for me.

The charger came with the phone if you got it from AT&T in the US, or a carrier I cant remember the name of in the UK/Ireland. With AT&T, they shipped it to you upon purchase, in the UK it was a mail in form. I actually got my charger before I got my actual phone, thanks to the high demand at launch.

That being said, they're relatively cheap, $50 USD from AT&T, but I get 50% off through my work discount.
[HTC One X+] omnianick:
I have a hox+ and I bought my wife a Nexus 4. My take is that the HTC is far superior. The colours are brighter and the whites whiter. Both are well built.

I think stock jelly bean is a bit dull. My wife complains that the dialer is not as good as mine. She also doesn't like how the message bubbles in the message app are the same colour.

I think sense is needed, it makes the ui much more usable and interesting.

The mat effect is grippier, the Nexus is very slippy.

Battery life is similar

Sound quality is better on the Nexus
[HTC One X+] alioth:
I have own both, Nexus4 and OneX+

I agree all you said except Sound quality. I think is far better on OneX+, and louder too. This is on stock Rom. In 4.2 betas... there is no good quality yet.

The best of Nexus4 is smooth. Its a little quicker in OS, and very very smooth. I miss that smooth in my OneX+
[HTC One X+] zaki67:
What about battery life
[HTC One X+] alioth:
Better OneX+ for me.

But it is known that there is a bug with 4.2.1 Nexus4 about battery drain, and google is working to fix it.

So it is dificult to say which one is going to be better in future.
[HTC One X+] spray.de:
well did you test cm 10.1 on the htc one+? THE SMOOTHNESS is freakin amazin'!
[HTC One X+] alioth:
Yes, I did. And in launcher, sometimes is perfectly smooth, but sometimes it has noticeable lags.

I don't know if there is a problem with my Hox. I have micro lags with Nova and Apex, in stock Rom, in cm10, and cm10.1

The only launcher is perfectly smooth is Next Launcher, but it is not very customizable yet.

Sense is a little slow, but no lags.

I didn't see any lag with nexus4 in three weeks I spent with it.

[HTC One X+] barondebxl:
There is no lag whatsoever on the nexus 4, its the fastest android device I have ever used. I had it and its great, I got rid of it cause I personally prefer sense or touchwiz over stock (this may sound crazy to some ppl). As great as stock android is, I like the extra features that sense and touchwiz offer. Otherwise the nexus 4, especially considering how offerdable it is, is the best bang for the buck.
[HTC One X+] kratos92:
HTC One X+ the best phone in market!!!Nvidia Tegra 3 is very fast!!!
[HTC One X+] baste07:
To each his own but i agree it's my choice
[HTC One X+] roobeyn:
Nexus4 is the clear winner!

It includes the lastest snapdragon S4 Pro, witch is itself better than the oveclocked HOX+ is running, it also has the double of ram.

The nexus 4 will get more updates than HOX+ and even first of all devices, think of it waiting for an awesome update that has been released of google with awesome features... You wont need to think about it with your nexus 4.

And HOX+ does not have as much support as Nexus4 in terms of modding, custom roms, kernels and MUCH more.

Also i may think that Nexus 4 is cheaper than HOX+ in any country.

Even if the cost was the same, i would have bough Nexus4.

HOX+ have better music playback than Nexus4, but ports are already available so that you can use any quality of music playback from both Sony(which i prefer) and HTC(Beats).

I think the sense UI is ported to N4 but im not sure, check it up :)
[HTC One X+] deeznuts:
Convenient to leave out the memory, what is it an 8gb device versus 64gb? Also how it's made out of glass and worst of all made by LG. Better off buying a TV or washer and dryer from LG than a glass cased phone, lol. Maybe Maytag will come out with the Nexus 5...
[HTC One X+] jmghollywood:
For me it's the gorgeous screen and the 64gb. The only thing I will regret between the two is the missing updates or untimely updates.
[HTC One X+] mrheffner:
I come from an iPhone 4s, so its not the best reference for this discussion, but ...

Battery life on the HOX+ is awful.

I cannot get trough a day of calling/email/surfing without recharging.

No problem with my iphone. I'd say it's close to 30% less battery life. Going out after a days work, is just impossible without recharging the HTC.

Build quality, camera, responsiveness, etc. Are very good though. I like this phone, if only it had better battery life.
[HTC One X+] Andrew149:
I highly doubt what your saying I've owner a iPhone 4s and a iPhone the one x plus battery spanks it. You probably have a rogue app

Spank is right...

Yeah. I'm coming from an iPhone 4. Used to charge it every night. The most I could squeeze out of it was 1 n half days.

Currently with the One X+ I've gone up to 2 days and 2 hours.
[HTC One X+] tzmx:
Seriously ... we cant talk a lot about this, but in the ends it come to what YOU!! only you need and want!

But i will share my experience and things i looked at when i was choosing my new phone 2 weeks ago, so maybe its useful for someone, heh:

So i considered: hox+, gs3 and nexus4.

I started out by finding negative things - well things i dont like on each of the devices.

Gs3: build quality... oh gosh for me personally, i just couldnt stand that cheap plastic phone when i grabbed it in store. Also that one button that all samsung phones have looks bad, at least i think.

Nexus4: I my sound stupid but all i can say here is glass back. And LG as it self. 2 huge minuess for me....

Hox+: at first was hard for me to find negative things. But eventually i came to this: small dev action going on and i understand that it wont ever grow as big as it would be on n4 for example. I coome from good old desire and i like the huge dev community it had/have (?), but this phone atm doesnt get almost any.

Positive things for me:

gs3: somehow its snapdragon or how its called processor is bther in terms of compatibility with old games (games that aint optimized for tegra3 witch hox+ has and some agme doesnt run well till they get update for tegra)

n4: 1. huge dev community and posabily will grow...

2. stock android

hox+: 1. huge storage. before i had it i taught i would never need it. Once you have you wouldnt setle for less.

2. build quality. just great

3. screen.. /drool.

Summary:

Its different things we all like, but for me in the end, i want phone that feel right. And it somehow felt right about hox+ and main thing that made me choose it was build quality, thats it.
[HTC One X+] maxwen:
From a devs "point of view"

N4 is much too boring to dev for :D
[HTC One X+] seanyuan62:
I have bad news guys... I am very very close to jumping ship and going to the N4. I know I'm probably going to regret it, but I'm a flashaholic and I have an international HOX+. I kind of just want to try the N4 just to try it... I'm currently at war with myself. Someone please convince me to stay
[HTC One X+] CirgioD:
:p You cannot flash Viper, Blackout or Elegancia on N4, but you can have AOSP, CM, AOKP on HOX+, maybe Paranoid some day :D

HOX+ IS AWESOME PHONE, at least for my needs ....
[HTC One X+] seanyuan62:
Well we don't have Viper yet. If viper international comes out within the next week or so I'll probably love it too much to leave hahaha.
[HTC One X+] CirgioD:
You know what Turge said, m0narx is your man, patience my friend, you'll be satisfied :)
[HTC One X+] dafreeze01:
had the same question...my choose was hox+ because of availabilty...don't really sea so much difference
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
The dev community for the N4 is huge considering the it was just released 2 months ago. If you like flashing then i would say you should definitely consider the N4. Also, I'm reading the battery of the OX+ doesn't last nearly as long.
[HTC One X+] superchilpil:
Its huge because its a nexus device, last nexus device I had the development was huge but every ROM was similar... Quality is still better than quantity.

The battery is also better because it lacks a LTE radio.

Slithered from my HTC One X+
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
Yep so it's all a matter of opinion which phone to choose
[HTC One X+] superchilpil:
Exactly, so this thread is more or less pointless

Slithered from my HTC One X+
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
Agreed, unless the OP still has questions not related to opinion based matters.
[HTC One X+] drew47715:
I have the OneX+ and the N4

I have both devices and I must say I see pros and cons with both devices. I am a flash addict and the N4 has so many options for me to flash that I can not get enough. Also I feel the N4 has a much better build quality and feels more like a premium device and I love the stock Android look and feel very smooth. The One X+ though has the sense widgets and lock screen that I love as well and wish I could have them on my Nexus. Although the N4 is suppose to have a better battery I find that my One X+ in real life usage lasts longer than the N4. So I guess the bottom line is you can not go wrong with either phone but if you want a more robust dev community and ROMs then the N4 is the best bet!
[HTC One X+] nk7600:
As stated they both are good devices. Its all down to what each person requires i.e. updates, better camera etc... If updates are important, then its N4. If you like a good camera, then opt for the OneX +. If storage is important, again opt for the OneX+. If any fone can be future proof (to a degree), then it will always be the Nexus line of handsets.

I am torn myself but am going to wait it out for HTC to bring out either the Butterfly in the UK or the M7 & then make a choice.
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
I just cancelled my order for a N4 (after owning one and selling it back in November)

Why One X+?

-Better Camera

-4x more storage (some of those games take up ALOT of space)

-LTE (im on AT&T) (It's available, why sell yourself short)

-Amazing Car Dock. (personal big plus for me, but the OEM HTC Car Dock is hands down the best ive ever used. IF the N4 came out with a wireless charging one it would be a big factor for me lol)

-Beats Audio. (Call it what you will, it sounds pretty good on my crappy STi's stock audio system and actually better than many other audio mods ive done on the SGS3/SGN2)

Why the N4?

-2GB Ram

-Very nice feel

-Updates very very soon

-Being part of the niche crowd that is the nexus users (mods/flash addicts/etc)

As far as futureproofing... I dunno. Droid Life and others are reporting this X Phone coming to all carriers in and out of the play stores for "Nexus 4 price range) in July. Rumors are rumors, but damnit if iPhone is gonna do every 6 months why not google!
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
After owning both devices I have concluded the nexus is better.
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
With a prepaid carrier that doesn't get LTE that would make the n4 much stronger a choice for me. However speaking personally, paying for LTE for the next year still id like to be using it.
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
In terms of OS smoothness the N4 blows the X+ out of the water.
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
Understandable but there's a lot more to a phone than half a second faster ui imho
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
Yep there is. I like the design and fell of the nexus better too
[HTC One X+] gamepr:
So I have a one x+ on att and have been thinking of getting a n4....the deciding factor is: through which phone does notification, ringers, music and speakerphone sound the best?

One x+ 's speaker is pretty awesome!
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
A few legit reviews (and I can confirm) that the N4's speakerphone is "tinny" at high volumes.
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
The one X+ has better vibration for sure
[HTC One X+] Ariozo:
N4 is a nice device and did use it for a while, but the camera is not good and storage way to small for myself. (Even with C. services)

So this Days it is Note2,Asus Pf2 and the HoX+ that is the devices i like on market. And if i had to chose ...Note2 is damn nice but if you not use the things that just note have , better get a diffrent phone.

Pf2 has nearly same hardware as N4 but if you ask me, better camera,storage,screen,battery.

And HoX+ just feels better in the hand and have a sweet screen. :)
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
Back on a nexus 4 (for the time being). Super fluid compared to one x + but battery life is terrible
[HTC One X+] zaki67:
Is the hox battery notably better than the nexus ? I also am suffering from horrible battery life on n4
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
The X+ has worse battery. I get about 5 hours of screen time on the N4 vs. 4 on the X+
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
For me on WiFi its the same, on data the one x plus is notably better for me. About an hour's worth of more screen on time in a 15 hour day.

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 PM ----------

How? My nexus lost 50% with 1 hour of screen time on hspa data with Google now off, and the exact same setup as the one x.
[HTC One X+] ac3kill:
I always get 5 hr of screen on time with my one x +
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
It's entirely subjective.
[HTC One X+] ac3kill:
Will this convince you

Screw the nexus 4 it has no where near the battery I don't care what anyone says the battery on the one x + just keeps going and going forever I charge it once every other day and as you can see I have 4 hr of screen on time using barley half my power and I've been on battery going on two days ill prob get 6.5 hrs on screen on this charge.its soil rough at first but once the Rom and everything get settled in the battery just keeps getting better

I Love My One X +
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
The x+ certainly always had a better standby drain, almost zero for me on a non WiFi data connection
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
Custom ROM custom kernel. I always have location and Google now on. I got 6.5 hours of screen time when i was on WiFi one day ;)
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
screenshots? I have franco kernel, modaco rom, google now off, facebook sync off, twitter off, tapatalk off everything off and i cant even get 3 hours.
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
That's terrible. I was on euroskank cm10.1 with franco r31 at the time.
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
were you using the phone at all? your phone was barely awake!
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
Lol of course i did. For some reason my "awake meter" has never worked right
[HTC One X+] zaki67:
I am looking for realistic figures and the n4 an excellent device with horrible battery life I see a lot of people posting astronomical figures but on regular usage that is not the case.
[HTC One X+] robstunner:
They are relatively similar depending on use and setup within 1hr screen on. I'm trying different kernels and setups bit with the x+ and power save on I could get about 4hrs screen on in a 15 hour day without Wi-Fi
[HTC One X+] davidsteele1975:
My Nexus 4 has noticeably improved with similar use over the year to date. In terms of screen on time, through extrapolation, I'll see over three hours a day and for my usage, that's absolutely fine. It's greedy over 3G compared with WiFi, but that's quite normal. There is a standby drain issue, but it's improving - in normal use, it's equivalent to my HTC One S. My One S idles better (thanks in part to HTC's power save option, it's running stock Jelly Bean).

On WiFi all day and staying at home with the brightness at minimum, I'll see five hours of screen on time.

Of course, my typical usage could be way different to yours. I leave WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G, AutoSync, GPS on. NFC is off unless needed. I have one Gmail account with everything synchronising apart from Google+ and including Google Reader, Latitude and Google Now. Few minutes of talking at most a day. Usually lots of text messages. Anywhere from a few MB of 3G data to a few hundred MB.

I'm happy with battery life - it should improve as LG, Google and Qualcomm refine everything.
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
Yeah regular usage I will get 4.5 to 5 hours of screen time with about 12-15 hours total
[HTC One X+] baste07:
That is kinda bad
[HTC One X+] ctowne:
What is good in your eyes?
[HTC One X+] MohamadKarbi:
I moved to Nexus 4 temporarily. It's 8GB but the actual is around 5.5GB.

The first thing I noticed is the phone in hand. HOX+ is better in hand. The screen of N4 is wider and shorter especially with keys on screen. The display in HOX+ is a little bit better. The camera on HOX+ is better too; but not a very big difference.

For me, there was no need to download a launcher on HOX+. But for sure, this is needed on N4.

The N4 is faster with 2GB ram. This is very noticable.

If this wasn't a temporary move from my side, I'd certainly miss my old HOX+ because of the camera, phone in hand, and display.

Not talking about rooting, N4 is easier in customizing software & apps. But I have to confess HOX+ (HTC sense) is more convenient in the way of connecting apps & services.

The battery in my usual use was a little bit better on HOX+.
[HTC One X+] ddean5:
I live in a city with excellent 4G LTE coverage, with the storage, size, and pure speed of 4G. I love it over the N4. It just needs CM10 desperately, which is becoming available to ATT users very soon.
[HTC One X+] gamepr:
I checked out the n4 at the tmobile store and I kinda liked it.

Drawback was the speaker...with loud ringers you can hear distortion on it.

Screen we not as good as hox+.

Camera wasn't as good either.

Imight try one just for trying out out. I like T-Mobile's Napa speeds.

I do not know of any smartphones that have the hardware for this. Your phone needs a FM transmitter. I think you will need to use a lead/cable/wire. If your car stereo has a 3.5 mm Aux input you could buy a small Bluetooth reciever and plug it in there. That way your phone does not have any cables attached.

Good luck.
