What? From what I heard they come with beats audio, no beats headphones, the headphones are whatever htc bundles with, o beats brand on them. Beats audio is only better if you buy the headphones which means more money to invest.

Beats is hype altogether, with or without the headphones.

Your command of the english language underwhelms me.

Yes, history repeats, gs2 outperformed sensation last year.

So if any one buys HTC one x international ,.. wil see again what they say lasy year,.. galaxy beating htc..again.

But in US version SoC are same crapdragon s4.. so difficult to choose.

Samsung Fanboy

You're actually the Samsung hater. =]

108. thelegend6657 posted on 18 May 2012, 10:10 1 2

Not the biggest fan .
But i dont hate Samsung
I hate their loud Fanboys always bashing Apple's tail keep saying themselve on android side but actually on Samsung side , check this article for example .
Samsung make a lot of stuff in house and supply it to other companies .
So like it or not your phone will have something samsung in it and i prefer it that way

The availability depends on your location geographically,Initial batchs of the phones didn't have beats headsets bundled in the phones but in the last few weeks they have been. I've even seen the One V with beats headsets bundled with the now. Bare in mind they ibeats inear headsets which are bundled with the phones not over ear headsets.

I've read all of the article already. It's a good review although i think it'll be better if there is a comparison video.

The video will be up very soon! :P

The s3 comes in 3 versions, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB with ability to expand with 64GB and also there is 50GB of dropbox for 2 years you should correct your reviews and head-to-head against the One X, it was officially announced from the beginning don't know why you keep rehashing your words without getting your facts straight as a reviewer

If only one can understand what the designer and technologist had in mind than seriously honestly than we can give the guys the best credit of their marvels.

are you going to use it or boast about it?
that's the main question.

htc is much much ugly and if you did't see both devices with you eyes don't say such things. one x is ugly

15. wendygarett (limited) 3 days ago posted on 16 May 2012, 08:50 6 1

Just wait and see the comparison with iphone4s, then you may have different conclusion :D

20. kshell1 posted on 16 May 2012, 09:05 5 2

Im actually starting to respect Ray actually. If he doesn't like HTC or android in general and prefers the iphone its his opinion not mine. I have mine, he has his, you have yours, and so on

Ya you're probably (definitely) right...

same here. if Ray or someone else likes iphone or any other device, then its a personal choice. all we want is an unbiased and honest opinion. again a good job done Ray.

If someone was to write a review for a professional tech blog, I don't think a writer should hold any personal opinion in the article that he/she wrote. The comparison reviews should provide the pros and cons, the advantages and disadvantages of the devices. Then based on the facts given in the article, the readers could decide themselves on the winner.

If it's a personal blog, then it's a different case.

What you asking is logically not possible. Every tech site will have different ways and different opinions of a phone, you have to have a personal opinion.

That's where you're wrong, the personal opinion come from unprofessional writing. Anyone who at least took high school English will be taught to be objective within a research assignment without leaving personal opinion. So it is possible, is just most people choose not to.

I do agree that the One X has a lot of problem, but none that can't be fixed. The writing of this article needs to be more objective, especially the conclusion, where the writer just pretty much bashes the HTC device. To me, GSMArena's comparison shows much more professionalism even tho they do show opinions.

there is no such thing as objectivity. There is always something which is not objective and that why people have different opinions. For you one thing is objective for me is other thing so there is objectivity

s3 is not polycarbonate unibody , just regular plastic right ?
After holding a Black OneS i can say that its the best phone to hold and feel for now .
But would i buy one ? No , quad core OneX for me please .
Although my friend says OneS better as cheaper , snapdragon 4 , amoled screen , better design

60. taz89 posted on 16 May 2012, 12:38 4 0

no its not polycarbonate unibody as it has removable battery but the back is made out of polycarbone still so if the material of the one x and lumia is considered premium then so should the s3's...the fact that the battery is removable should be considered a bonus...also regardless if a phone is unibody or not it should matter how the phone feels when all the pieces are together.

85. thelegend6657 posted on 17 May 2012, 07:14 0 2

Apple and HTC is always talking about their unibody design

s3 is polycarbonate

32. ph00ny posted on 16 May 2012, 09:24 3 0

Not to mention the fact that samsung uses magnesium frame under the plastic. GS2 was damn impressive with 0 flex or creak

36. thelegend6657 posted on 16 May 2012, 09:31 0 4

really ?

37. kshell1 posted on 16 May 2012, 09:35 4 2

Actually yes i can vouch for him. My epic touch has betterbuild quality creak wise and sturdyness wise than my old evo, my inspire, the echo i had, and every other phone ive owned

all i know is the s2 is a tough bitch
My father dropped his on shoulder height and its still works fine
But isnt Unibody better ?
There is a survey that most people dont want SD slots or removable batteries why samsung put them in anyway

it depends how the phone is built to be honest,sometimes oems make removable back so when it drops the back cover comes off which somehow reduces the chance of damage...lol cant remember where i read this again but its what i read..again probably not with all phones and depends on the design..personally unibody feels better in the hand but for me i need the removable battery and sd slot so for me the sacrifice of a unibody design for those 2 features is worth it.

But thats a good thing as it may boost apple's sales more

140. Dark4o90 posted on 28 May 2012, 07:24 0 1

it is not plastic and if you want phone made of glass and when you drop it to throw it into the basket ok then buy iphone (iphones actually) and both one x and s3 looks better enough
