They might implement either a reset button or a special key combination that will always reboot the device. Not sure if the newer HTC's have it but on my old HTC Desire I could hold down a couple buttons and it would always reboot.

samsungs claims that its double the speed over the current one with 20percent power savings. if its even half of what samsung claims, it would be totally worth it over the one x.

not to mention all the user support with roms and kernels. look at the xda page for the s2 compared to another one of its counterparts.

For anything that has a curved screen/edge you'll need to go wet apply.

rogers better get the black one, white is too girly. I only chose htc one x over the s3 bcz of the design and colour (black).

exactly, the white model gets dirty easily due to it not having the high gloss back.




AT&T just released the HTC One X in both White and Black 16GB, and both are sold out online. Why cant Rogers also offer the same options?

For those who are interested in the black model, Please show your interest by emailing Rogers @ wireless.inq@rci.rogers.com

So I finally played with one of these phones at best buy today and honestly the screen is . I'm starting to think that I prefer the sense ui more than the touch wiz on the samsung galaxy line.. gonna be hard to choose between this and the s3.

I was using one of these phones today (tegra 3 version) and I was blown away by its all around amazingness in comparison to my note. I'm thinking of getting one but I just don't know if I can "downgrade" to it's screen size now that I'm used to the note *ponders*
