Hi everyone,im a myTouch 4G owner & thinking of buying good android device.I only like HTC phones.So i did research.After my researching I've found HTC Sensation,HTC Vivid,HTC Amaze 4G are good for my Budget & specifications i was looking for.I've chose Amaze is good enough for me,but i have some questions to solve before buying this.
1.According to my experience (on my Glacier) & reviews about HTC devices,i've found that audio quality on a recorded video is not good.Im asking,is that really bad?
2.Im not really sure about this,but i would like to ask.I've seen many HTC phones have Dust Under Screen issue.My Glacier has that too.So is there this issue on Amaze too?
3.Is there BAD EMMC CHIP & GOOD EMMC CHIP thing on Amaze 4G too?
It will be really helpful if you guys can post some best camera shots ever made with your Amaze.
Thanks.
Bro you can find all of the answers you are looking for with a little bit of research.

1. Audio is only bad if you record loud sounds. Disabling stereo recording improves the quality a bit.
2. I've had mine for 5-6 months, and I put my phone in my dusty/linty pockets. I have no dust under my screen. I also use a screen protector though.
3. Never heard of it.

Thank you very much!
I have always wanted to buy the original one x when it first came out. however a constant stream of complaints from users experiencing issues such as screen flex, yellow spots, tints, WiFi issues, poor battery life etc put me off making a purchase. Often i would hear reports of people returning their one x units 3, 4 even 8 times due to various hardware defects.
Now that the One X+ is available, iam curious to knw from current users if HTC has worked on and improved on the faults of the original one X.
Is the one x+ a better phone?...Are there any issues that are still present in the new one x+ that haven't been addressed? would you recommend the One X+?
Iam looking forward to hear yours opinions thanx
I've noticed a slight lift of the touchscreen along the left side. I wouldn't have noticed other than the right side is more flush. The rest of the device appears rock solid. I'll wait a few weeks to see if the screen issue is actually an issue before I contact AT&T.
My international One X never gave me any problems using it and, in the week I've had my X+, I haven't noticed any issues either. in fact, the X+ feels even more solid than the original X.
I'd say it's rock solid so far and much smoother than the one x so it seems as though there was more thought put into it making it better.

Other than the yellowish screen, I'd say everything else is ok.
I must just have good luck because every phone I've ever purchased new has been good to go. Quality of the HOX+ is no different.

Mine has a yellow tone (which I hate). Next to my old iPhone, the difference is night and day. Oh well.

You make it sound like your X+ has a horrible screen tone value. To be honest, I have the One X and the X+ and the difference in screen tone is visible when you look at both devices next to each other, but each by itself, the screen is just beautiful.
The screen tone, may it be yello-ish or blue-ish, is not a quality issue. The screen simply is like that...different manufactures, different screen tones.
Overall, the X+ feels a tiny bit better and more sturdy when holding it. The quality of the build is perfect. But so was the build of the One X. The design on both is something else, really nice to look at.
BTW, I got the One X back in April, and used it a lot every day. Always carried it in a black leather case with a flip open front when travelling. And the screen has not one single scratch or mark. I never used a protector.
the one x+ have a great feel in hand and very good looking phone indeed! with top build quality.
The responses on this thread hav been pretty positive so far, i will definitely be picking up a one x+ soon...Personally out of all the current phones on the market the one x is one sexy looking phone
my first one had a little red stuck pixel and the screen on the right side was not flushed. Second unit was perfect. Both AT&T versions
As far as i read the only "problem" with ONE X+ is overheating (normal for this CPU in heavy use) and not centered back CAMERA EYE (not for all) Am i right?

Overheating would mean that it shuts down or throttles...that's not true. It just gets hot like other devices GSII for example.
So far I'm loving the HOX+ and would recommend it. ...Coming from an Inspire 4g. The build quality is great. Screen looks awesome. Plenty of horsepower. Couldn't have worked out better that I was due for an upgrade on the 13th and the phone was released on the 16th. Got it that night.
The only thing I'm trying to determine if it's a legitimate issue or not is WiFi cutting out when I have GPS enabled. I haven't been able to recreate the issue at the office so it's more likely it's just my home router being a pain.
My pre-order One X+ had a screen issue where it would jump around during re-draw. I haven't posted on XDA enough to be able to post outside links, but if you're curious, put this into a Youtube link and you'll see what I'm referring to: "tkWZ5IsLx38"
Exchanged it for a new one at an AT&T store. Once they saw the problem, they replaced it no problem. The new one I've got works great. It's a wonderful phone (coming from an AT&T Samsung Captivate).

My first was a pre-order unit as well. I just noticed that the box of the the new unit simply has the AT&T logo on it while the unit with screen problems had a picture of the One X+ on it. The screen's maximum brightness seems higher as well. Did you notice that also?
Hi ....Please help me in deciding which one to buy ... HTC One X+ or Iphone 5 or LG google nexus 4 ...I have never used any high- end phones like these... but I want to experience one .. Please give me some suggestions... I had decided to buy HOX+ but after reading WIFI issues and other issues, I want to think twice . I am not a heavy user .My main main requirements are :
1. Perfect sound quality ( without any distortion)
2.Perfect Camera
and 3. Ease of use
You can suggest me other phones also . But shold be flagship phones and the phone should have good resell value
If you can get it I'd say the Nexus 4, but it's been out of stock online. I love my Xperia Ion,not sure I'd change it for anything other than the Nexus 4. My wife has a Galaxy S III and loves it. If I could get a Nexus 4 tho I'd jump on it in a heartbeat. I must say that I'd give the HTC 8X Windows Phone 8 a look for easy of use, good size screen,easy to setup, there isn't alot of customization available for it,but the camera is really good and it has Beats Audio built in for good music. There are more apps for Android,but there are still a bunch for it and more coming up everyday. Go by a local store and give the Windows 8 Phone a look and the Galaxy S III and maybe the iPhone 5, but the screen size on the iPhone isn't anywhere near as big as either HTC or Samsung phone.

Thank u very much for your suggestion ... Actually , I dont like windows phones that much because 1. Bluetooth sharing problem , that is.. windows to windows only 2. Same boring live tiles and no change in background and like that ... Now, the only pne left is Nexus 4 ... Right now , I am in between Nexus 4 and HTC One X+ ....I have read that , the camera and sound quality of HOX+ is better in comparisn to N4 ( May be that would depend on user ), JB 4.1 + htc sence + is better that stock android (again depends on user ), battery life better on HOX+ .
I am ready to buy HOX+ , but the wifi problem and other issues threatens me a lot.

I've had absolutely no issues with my wifi. Infact my HOX+ still gets a signal from my router in my back garden. Where as my GNote 10.1 will not.

I wasn't even aware of any Wi-Fi or other issues. Aren't you referring to the one x Wi-Fi issue? That's not a problem on the one x+ anymore. I've been using a one x+ since it came out and haven't experienced any troubles with it so far, so I don't think you should be afraid of any issues... If anything, you should be afraid of the hardware quality of the n4 I guess. The reputation of LG isn't that great, while HTC is known for its hardware quality.
Hello!
In shorts.
I have HOX+, I had some fun with nexus 4 and i have little experience with IPhone 5
Nexus 4 is best in terms of value for money.
HOX+ is great(i will not use word best,but for me it's best for my need) in terms camera and music* (it depends what type of music you listen and quality of format).
IPhone5 is simpler and safer to use* (controversial,but accorind to my experience people easier learn iOS)
WiFi issue? eee i don't have any and i tried on home wifi ,wifi in train and works smoothly. I will worry more about battery to be honest as bettery is enough for minor use as mobile will struggle badly in intence use (but battery pack connected via usb solved this problem in my case)
I chosen HTC one x+ because as it better my purpose (music,music,music,do picture of bizzare things, all in one tool,android development )
btw. i am not expert.i just told my experience.

Well... The WIFI problem seems to an indivisual problem.
So, I am 95% convinced to buy the HOX+... Now, the Price matters a lot. I mean in India HOX+ costs Rs 40k where as Nexus 4 costs 34k.I was thinking about the resell value of the phone.After 6 -8 months , SGS 4 with a 3 Ghz processor is going to hit the market. This samsung beast is going to reduce the resell value for sure. At that time, I will have to sell my HOX+ for say 25k or N4 for 25k .... If I buy HOX+ , I will going to have a loss of 5 k or may be more ....
BTW : Thank u very much

To the OP, I'd suggest the iPhone 5 for what you're looking for. Nexus 4 is out cus this is 2013, a device with less than 16gb of memory, sad. Also making the mistake of the iPhone 4, would never again get a device with a glass case, lol! You also want a great camera which the new iPhone provides and the hox+ sucks in low light pics. Only good during the day for pics. Also u want perfect sound quality, well if u use Bluetooth to talk than again the hox+ is out of the question. If u don't rely on Bluetooth talking then the hox+ has amazing sound quality everywhere else imo! Even louder and better speaker quality than my wifes iPhone 5.
Now if u can wait at least 3 months for an upgrade I would hold out! New line of smartphones is where it's out. Grf is suppose to come out with the M7 whatever that will be and the galaxy IIII. Should both be out by March, for sure first sister 2013. Hopefully the new HTC flagship device will come correct with quality Bluetooth and fixed camera issues.
@ OP, I agree with deeznuts (LMAO), iphone 5 sounds like a good choice for you. It has FANTASTIC sound quality, both speakers and headphones, its easy to use and its powerful. Plus the design is amazing, personally I'm not a fan of IOS but since you never really experienced any high end smart phones, the iphone 5 is a great start. After that you can upgrade to android ( its not a shot at apple just the truth).

Same here go for the iPhone 5, your new to smartphones so go with that and you will never run into any issues . That being said, ios is slightly dull and boring.
The Nexus 4 isn't as bad of a choice as a lot of other people think, it's respectable in every aspect except for 4G connectivity. And tbh you can't go wrong with any of them. So just have a go at them in the shop and see how it goes.
Sent from my HTC One X+
I agree with iPhone 5 being the best choice for OP. It has incredible easy of use and arguably the best camera / sound quality combo. For me HTC One X+ is the best choice for me, but mine is rooted and has a custom ROM. That's probably more than a 1st time smart phone buy want to gets into.
Since the author of this post is considering the iPhone I would just go for it.
Seems like you are perfectly content with Apple's reign/shackles...

Personally I would recommend the HTC one x+. The only issue I have with the phone is Bluetooth audio quality in phone calls, which should be resolved in an update. Camera is very good, some low light pictures are grainy.
There is no perfect smart phone all have some thing wrong. New iPhone 5 has camera issues with a purple hue due to the lens cover. Aluminium case scratches very easily. Exchange mail/calendar bugs (May have been fixed)
As far as ease of use I had an iPhone for 3 years and find most things easier to do on android since ics+. IPhone does some things better but at a price of loss of control over your phone. If I want a program to be a default app I can do that on android not on ios. ITunes is a nightmare.
Either way they are both high end smart phones and would be happy with either. If you can try the HTC and return it if you don't like it. Here in the USA I get 2 weeks to try a phone before I have to commit to the purchase.
Good luck

Only thing is in 6 months there is already rumoured to be an iPhone 6 coming out according to BGR. The one thing I don't like about the Apple Mac stuff is with iTunes your stuck if you've bought songs, unless your hallways knowledgable about it, it's a pain to pull your music from your ldevice. It's "cool" and "hip" and all, but I think imho I'd stick with WinMo 8 or Android.
