The htc looks amazing and the quad core should be immense .
The galaxy s3 specs haven't even been officially released yet so I can't comment on that one. If however the s3 is quad core and is as attractive as the nexus il probably get that one,

SG3 is an unknown entity isn't it whereas the One X comes out in a week. Best wait until Samsung officially leak the specs.

seeing as nobody has used either device the only way of answering it is reading reviews.

I would wait till they are out and people have hands on experience with then.

I would agree way too early.

Might be just me I went from legend to desire to desire hd. looking at the x and sensation before HTC just dont seem to do it for me right now. I have sg2 but would even go Sony above HTC now and dont really know why.

No answer until the specs are out. It's like saying which house should I buy, before even seeing the plans.

Having said that I have higher expectations for the S3, merely because I think the S2 is so great.

Thanks for the replies.

I currently have the S2 and I'm inclined to wait for the S3.
I'll have to read the reviews on the HTC One X when it's been out for a couple of weeks.

I'd wait until both have been out for a month to see what the comments are when they are in general use. I know it needs patients, but...................

Having a SGS2 at the moment, my choice would be the SGS3 when it comes out. I used to love HTC, but their phones are all very similar now (and your latest and greatest mobile is out-tech'd in a month by them releasing a better one) and Sense 4.0 covers up Android in black... again!

Im looking at the HTC one X, found a deal on o2 with 300 mins 750mb data unlimited texts and free phone for £37. Seems a good deal but I just can't decide.

Its an 18 month contract

S3 by a fraction. Friends that have the current HTC have battery issues. The S2 isn't perfect either.

It all depends what they are like and what reviews / feedback will be when they both come out.


I wouldn't make a decision until they are out.

Don't Samsung cover Android with "TouchWiz" (or something like that) though?

I don't subscribe to the trend of saying TW sucks. Theres nothing wrong with it for those who chose to use it. That said, just changing the launcher takes you away from it, so it's not really a problem.
