So i have the one x and im its really little to say dissapointed in the battery life and due to other stuff im maybe exchanging it so im going for Samsung Galaxy S3 or an iPhone 4s but i need to know is the battery life better on the s3 over the one x (i.e like 1h web browsing,20-30min gaming.and1:30h of video playback and a lot of facebook) can i do with the s3 all these and go through the day i mean to have like 10% to 20% left because with the one x that is imossible and i know whit the iPhone 4s i can do much more because before one x i had iphone 4 and its battery satisfied me unlike the one x
Yes, but why buy 4s when there is a new iphone out soon perhaps? Considering rumors its larger and should therefore also have better battery. I think my s3 lasts longer then my i4! And it's much more fun to use

Battery on the S3 is fantastic! Currently at 35% after 1 day, 19 hours of use. Moderate usage.
BTW I had no idea that mt:s still had a service in KS

Well the SGS III does get hot sometimes, but nothing unbearable - compared to my new iPad (3), it's cool as ice. I've heard that HOX can get really hot (57 C), compared to SGS III (42 C)
Reasoned, non-biased and sensible comparisons between the devices is... non-existent.
5 year olds screaming at each other for page after page after page after page are here.
The only negative point about the S3 imho is that the screen isn't so good in bright sunlight compared to the one x. That being said, over all the S3 is a much better phone than the iphone 4s and the one x.

Greetings,
I'm looking for new phone. I have Galaxy Ace at the moment.
Was looking between SGS2 and HTC One S.
One S is way better on papers but all the about it say "don't go for it"
Chipping, home screen button problems, etc
And SGS2 is now almost 2y old phone.
And what about One S battery? What if my phone freeze? I can't remove battery so what then? That sound stupid.
Now I really don'k know which one to buy?
Many thanks!
S2 is far better in overall and has good android development for it I say go for it or u can try xperia s
Sent from my GT-S5360 using Tapatalk
Is it that better then SGS2?
I don't need 12MP camera or more then 8Gb on my phone. So both looks great to me.
Didn't research much about Xepria S so don't know much about Xperia S flaws.
EDIT:
And i'm not sure about battery life on xperia s
EDIT2:
I'm more into better screen, performance and battery life ;D
As you said the S2 is old by now while the One S is brand new. It has a very snappy dual core processor and nice screen. And the build quality is above the S2. I had the S2 and am now rocking the One X and I have to say the build quality is years away in the HTC. And the one S has the same uni body polycarbonate build as the X has.
Plus you get software Beats audio enhancements and Sense 4 UI which I think it's better looking than Touchwiz.
Your call.

Thanks for the replay!
Now its 1:1 = SGS2 / One S
And Ill be on my way to get new phone in about 2h from now
nevrozel what about HTC when it freeze? Battery is not removable
My sister went from an SGS2 to the One S. Screen is better as higher ppi, despite being a pentile its not that bad, better camera, sense is better than touchwiz, better sound quality via headphones. Its fast and has good battery life too. Looks nice and feels solid in the hand. Both are good but it opt for the One S as its newer and more likely to be supported longer by HTC.

Moving to Q&A
galaxy s2 is 1 year old, not 2.
but go for the one s, it's much faster device, higher resolution (still amoled), and ics on non-s3 devices isn't that great i heard... still the same touchwiz 4 feel (not even widgets in app drawer!).
in terms of touchwiz 4.0 vs sense 4, sense wins.
and im guessing htc has probably implemented some kind of emergency off feature such as the iphone, where it'll turn off the phone no matter what kind of state it's in. ask around on the one forums if there's such a feature.
One s is better than s2 but it has non user replaceble battery and can break if fallen frm a hieght !!!!

I second that, S4 (Krait, SoC in One S) is absolute killer.
P.S.:I'm wondering what he bought.
We might not known for a while as he is busy killing his new HTC. Hehe....

Sorry for the long time it took me to reply.
In the end I have bought Galaxy S2.
The price for SGS2 in the end was 200€ and for One S 470€ so no hard choice in the end.
At first both had same price, but 2 days before I went to shop SGS2 got new price. Yay
But had some problems first SGS2 i got was I9100G so took me like 7 days till I got normal version.
So I was planning on buying the s3 but I can't seem to make my mind up on it. There are a lot of reasons why I can't decide. It's not in my budget but adding $100 dollars will do the trick. Anyway, is it worth the price? is it future-proof?(I've read that manufacturers are developing full-hd res screens but who needs it?) How long will it last til dev support abandons it?
I'm the kind of user who's really in to multimedia and tweaking and I want this phone to last two years until I buy a new one. So can anyone recommend me this phone or recommend something else? What do you think?
P.S. I own an O2x right now and I love it but devs aren't supporting it much right now and I just bought this phone last november(which is a really bad step for me considering the fact that it's a year old in the market and i think the processor won't last). Thanks for your help in advance!
Wait till the new nexus comes out, and then see how the comparisons stack up.....but the bottom line is today's technology is always yesterday within 6-12 months.....I thought long and hard but then I happened to go on eBay and got my S3 for £390 brand new, 500 in the shops, so I'm happy :beer:
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
It's the best phone you can buy right now. Dev support is strong as the phone is extremely popular. The galaxy s 2 was and still is today a huge seller with great dev support and this phone is no different.
Future proof? It will still be a good phone in two years. Sure other phones would have come along with better spec but it will still hold its own.
I for one have a compulsion when it comes to phones, I've replaced many over a short period due to shortcomings in one area or another. This is the first phone I'm really happy with and might actually keep for at least a year.
Not much in the horizon anyway in terms of android phones. The only competition to this beast is the one x and that thing is good but no removable battery or expandable storage and battery life also sucks compared to this.

Thanks for your reply!
how does your s3 feel in processing power? I read that theyre laggy at times but not most. I want to know what I can get for the money before i invest on this phone
Low bench mark scores , app monitor missing, no social hub alot of stock apps not there. Google wallet not supported yet. It eats up memory ram pretty good but over all it's pretty good solid phone.

For me it`s not laggy at all, i rooted the phone and flashed Siyah 1.3.8a and undervolted 50 Mv. It`s running stable, fast and has good battery life. But out of the box the phone is also good. It also depends on how many apps and widgets you have installed and are running in the background.

Developer support for the galaxy s1 is still as good as the s3's so it's safe to say that the s3 will continue to be supported for several years.
There will be no next-gen phone until next year. Any phone released this year could only hope to be better in terms of ram. Nothing else.
The s3 will last until at least 2015.

First uninstall your task killer, it`s not a solution but a problem. It messes up android task management and causes lags!
Second it off course depends ho many apps/widgets you have running in the background.
Third don`t say stuff to and about users that you are not sure about or do not know.

Hello guys. I'm trying to upgrade from a Samsung Galaxy S2 to either a Samsung Galaxy S3 or to the HTC One X.
I love my S2, the only think I do not like that much, besides samsung delaying rom releases a little too much for my taste, is that battery does not lasts a full day with moderate to heavy use, it lasts about 6/8 hours, and that it gets really hot.
Both phones have been out for a while already, so on your most objetive opinion, what are the cons you wish you would have known about the S3, and what is your experience regarding battery life under moderate to heavy use, and hotness of the phone?
Do you see any other advantage of one over the other? Do you whish to have bought the other?
I know there are hundred of reviews, but i'm asking for real experience here.
Thanks.
The HTC One X is obsolete in my opinion for 3 reasons:
1. No Micro-SD card slot
2. Non-removable battery
3. Terrible battery life
For those three reasons I don't think the phone is even worth considering over the Galaxy S3. if it had a removable battery and a Micro-SD card slot I would have gotten it over the S3 though.

Source? The battery life on the One X is absolutely amazing. It has better battery life than the Galaxy S3 by far due to the screen.
Engadget says:
Even with LTE enabled, battery life is noticeably better on AT&T's One X than on the foreign version. This was a sticking point in our original review, so we're extremely pleased with the improvement. We recorded eight hours and 55 minutes in our video loop rundown test with the screen set to 50 percent brightness -- most folks will have little trouble getting a full day's use from the 1,800mAh cell. Call quality was decent, but LTE performance exceeded our expectations with peak speeds of 35.7Mbps down and 23.5Mbps up (!) -- the fastest results we've ever recorded on an LTE device.

And AnandTech goes even further. Stating that One X gets a whopping 9.65 hours on 3G browsing , 5.5 hours on LTE and 10.35 on WiFi.
Finally, our cellular talk time charts put the AT&T One X in the upper half of our results. Overall the AT&T One X appears to do very well across the board, but it's very strong in the 3G/LTE tests.

Click to collapse
Edit: By comparison: The Galaxy S3 gets 8.3 hours on 3G (Versus 9.65 on the One X) and a mere 7.6 hours on WiFi, almost 3 HOURS less than the One X USA.
You call the One X battery terrible ?

I have had 2 of both, the one x has awesome battery life as many others have said. the camera on both of my one x's were way better than my first s3 but the s3 i just traded my one x for now is very good and on level with my one x. Anyone having camera issues (mainly bluring whenever its not super bright) i would say try an exchange if you can, I ran almost every rom on both s3's and that wasn't it 1st s3 was definitely a hardware issue.
One X:
Screen Looks nicer (only slightly)
Better Battery
Build Quality
S3:
More Development
SD card slot
Removable battery
more ram
More accessories (with all the carriers in the us and international versions being the same an android device is finally getting tons of options for cases/ etc)
Google Wallet, yes you have to hack it on but it works and with the new update its actually useful as you can use any cards.
Just my opinions, both are great phones but If you are big into flashing go s3.
I've said this in each of these threads thus far and ill say it again... As far as hardware the only thing the sgsiii has over one x is ram. Other then that the one x is a smidge ahead in everything else. Obviously the soc is the same so that a non issue. However development on the sgsiii is staggering at this point. Crushing the one x in that regard. We were one of the first with OFFICIAL cm10 preview builds and one of the first with OFFICIAL cm10 nightly support, the one x has neither AFAIK. Unofficial builds yes, official nope(correct me if I'm wrong there). Development was the sole reason I jumped ship from the one x to the sgsiii. And I definitely think I made the right move in that regard. Get the sgsiii, you won't be disappointed. Or get the one x, it's a kick ass phone. But I think you may get sgsiii envy. Of course everyone here will favor the sgsiii, and I noticed you made the same thread over in HTC land, there everyone will tell you the one x is better. So... These threads won't help much Imo.

You clearly have no idea what "In my opinion" means.
The majority of people close to me who recently upgraded chose the One X over the S3. Pretty much all of them complain about the battery life constantly. Also, while I was taking a train back home with a friend, we spent the entire ride watching videos on Netflix. His battery was nearly 35% more depleted than mine was. If it matters we watched different shows but for the same amount of time.

I have a hard time believing you have a bunch of friends who bought the One X on contract and then ALL switched to the S3 at full price just because of the battery. Also that comparison with your friend is useless. Were you guys both on 100% when you started watching the video? I highly doubt you made a note of how much his battery was at before you watched the video.
And yes, we do have an idea of what "in my opinion" means. It means you have zero facts, source and are being biased.
The One X has an infinitely superior camera in my opinion. I hate the camera on the galaxy. I'm also a big dropbox user so the ext sd isn't as huge a deal for me either. I'd have stayed One X if they had proper multitasking. It was awful on the HOX. Awful. I can't stress that enough. Awful.

2.2 made improvements in this. I keep coming back to the HOX because even with less RAM on a stock based ROM it feels smoother, especially in the MMS app with ~5000 texts. As a test, I did an SMS Backup and Restore backup, wiped both databases clean and cleared data on the MMS apk, then restored the same backup to both. (I also did a full wipe later as well) and the HOX doesn't stutter on the least while the GS3 does, especially when trying to back out of a conversation with over 200 messages. The only way the GS3 is as good is running an AOSP based ROM. Odd I know, but it is empirical evidence based on my usage.

This post deserves a darwin award.
I'm at my upgrade time on Orange UK but they don't stock the HOX+ at all and don't appear to be going to either!
Looks like I'll have to go sim only and buy it but want an honest review as I can't find a store that had it in to play with #frustrating
There are a few on YouTube but they are the generic unboxing & start up reviews. I'm after a what's it like to use, battery life, speed etc...

Concerned about the heating of the handset - is it just on heavy use (as my DHD does that) or all the time?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda app-developers app
I for one don't think there's a phone produced in the last two years that doesn't heat.
I have a One X+, if i would be in your place i will wait for next year. I am convinced that by february they will launch a new model.
I am very satisified with my HOX+ until now, but just have it about 10 days or so... Very fast, battery life is fine (can last for 3 days or 6 hours, depends on operations...) and I except it to get better after a few more cycles -> similar to the S3 of colleagues of me... It get's warm on the backside (about 40°C according to battery app) on heavy operation, but never hot in any way (I am no hardcore gamer). In normal operation battery temp is about 23° C to 28° C... Camera/Video in good light very well. 64 GB is amazing, love that! Sound is very good especially with third party player and EQ...
I come from XperiaS and HOX+ is better in every way, except maybe camera (but not really sure about that until now)... Had to decide between this and S3 and I am very happy I took the HOX+ :good: Looks better and feels much much better! Last but not least I like the look&feel of Sense more than the ones on Sony or Samsung phones (installed CM10 on my 10.1 Tablet to get rid of the Samsung stuff)...
I don't think you can do anything bad buying this phone. Compare it to the competition right now and it's very good. Sure, in half a year or so there will be newer stuff out there, but that's the way it is...

I'm at my upgrade time on Orange UK but they don't stock the HOX+ at all and don't appear to be going to either!
Looks like I'll have to go sim only and buy it but want an honest review as I can't find a store that had it in to play with #frustrating
There are a few on YouTube but they are the generic unboxing & start up reviews. I'm after a what's it like to use, battery life, speed etc...
Thanks in anticipation

Hey
Worth buying the device?
Currently I am using iPhone 4S and is a bit outdated to me,
I really like the deviceׁׁ(ONE) in terms of appearance and data and I want to buy the HTC ONE 64GB version from United States ..
Now I question if it's worth to buy this device?
I realized that I had battery problems, is it true? Knock up a battery is ending so quickly? It is also rechargeable're so slow?
What do you say?
ONE knock up a battery of using iPhone 4S better than mine?
my iPhone 4S is loaded faster for me ..
which is better htc one or galaxy s4 ?
i'm glad for true answer ..
I'm really not sure what you're trying to say, if you're asking if the One is worth it then yes it is

It's a great device the front speakers are awesome and are where speakers should be. The battery is fine. I get better battery life than on my nexus 4. It's def worth the upgrade. Especially since we have s_off on this device.

The phone is definitely worth it and battery for me is awesome, better than my friends iPhone 5, we did the same things on it for one whole day and I got about 2 hours more if that's really a difference. lol
There can only be one, the chosen ONE.
...
How long it takes to charge from 20% to 90%, roughly?
I can fully charge is about 4 hours so maybe 20%-90% about 2and 1/2 to 3.
There can only be one, the chosen ONE.
...
This is such an annoying and stupid to do such a battery is loaded slowly and end faily quickly...
I would like to add on to this question if I may, so as not to start a new thread. Does anyone know what versions of firmware and hboot are shipping right now with the at&t version?
My perfect Nexus 4 just to a jump off my car and shattered (sad). I have five weeks to wait for my upgrade and am considering the one, but after having an unlocked device, I couldn't tolerate anything else. I want to make sure its fully unlockable before I buy.
Thanks all.

Like you, I came over to Android and the HTC One from the 4S. IMO, the device is amazing in comparison to the 4S. I haven't noticed any battery issues but the charging time can depend on several factors such as using the OEM HTC Charger and closing out your apps. I would definitely recommend you give this phone a try.
