I just cant see how anyone could disagree.
No removable battery with less mAh
No MicroSD card
No Hard Home button
Smaller screen
And speaking of screen, Ill always prefer amoled, the black is too amazing on an amoled phone.

The sad truth is these threads are not on the htc one forums. They are just on the s4 forums. I'm not a Samsung hater but about every tech magazine will disagree with your statement. Expandable memory and removable battery I had on my htc rezound. I still have it but don't use it and those features would not in any way determine that I would continue to use it. Samsung will still sell a zillion s4s though.

No they have not shown up. They would still show after they were locked. And I'm no fanboy I've been criticizing htc all day for their botched launch. I have never seen a phone reviewed as positively as the one.
The thing is the design is that good. When you have apple fanboys falling all over it than you know they have done something original.

BTW: I came to a S4 forum only to find a bunch of HTC fans(not pointing anyone) trashing and trolling all over the place. I can give the credit that HTC one deserve why can't HTC people do the same thing with the S4? If people were objective in their comments I wouldn't have to rectify the facts all the time.

Be in reality, Samsung great sales not means it was the best, Samsung success because of Samsung throwing 400m++ last year on marketing - advertising. hehe....
I think, look doesn't always welcome. Yes i do agree that Samsung never works over Looks but you can compare with hardware also.
HTC one has given marvelous look & Ultra pixel camera, but what about other features..?
BTW who has seen HTC One or Galaxy 4 in hand..?? I think no one..?? ( Its my assumption )

Some people enjoy having an extremely large resolution, like me for instance. I would love to see this fully functional, as I usually change my density to a rather large resolution so as to make things smaller and have more screen space.
I'm a rom-whore, and I'm damn proud of it
If you read my threads and ask the devs, you will find that I set up bounties, and donate unlike most freeloaders on these forums. And I help some devs test their roms/kernels. My opinion is based on a desire to have our phone be a really cool dev platform but not go in directions where devs try their best to please 4 or 5 ill informed people and then give up. That would just lead to disenchanted devs. I don't think most of us want that...
By the way, I have an iphone, and will be getting a webOs tablet too. You know why? Because its pointless to be faithful to one thing when you can learn from many... Monogamy is meant to be practiced with a spouse, not a gadget... I'm not a fan of any. Just a shameless user of all.

Adjusting the DPI is a personal preference and doesn't change the overall resolution. In my opinion our screens don't really benefit it because the overall size and resolution is small.
A device like the Tab which is scaled like a cellphone screen benefits from the DPI adjustment since it has a much greater screen resolution.
Dell Streak is a fine example of why DPI adjustment isn't needed. Things just aren't right because of the 480x800 screen.

Either way it's going to be a tough choice when my upgrade comes around. The verge review of The One X said the display was the best they'd ever seen. Since they usually lean towards the iPhone in every phone comparison I'll take that as the phone is nearly flawless.
Galaxy SIII is going to have to be pretty awesome to trump this imo.

Expandable memory yes, removable battery no. The battery, however, still packs a 2000 mAh battery; it should easily get you through the day (considering the One X has an 1800 mAh battery, and it gets through the day easily).

Sort of on-topic: Can someone explain why a removable battery is so important to some people. I don't get it. The comments on a lot of the reviews for the one x and inevitably the announcements of this phone are like:

I seriously don't understand why it's important. I could not care less if I dedicated the rest of my life to caring less about it.

1. Batteries wear out over time, may want to replace it if you plan on keeping the phone for a long time.
2. You're going to be out all day and can carry a spare and not worry about micromanaging your battery life all day. (I've got 3 for the Epic)
3. You can use a better battery of the same form factor if one becomes available, like all the OG Epic users with the 1800mAh from the touch.

Yeah I get that. I think it's a nice feature to have but I won't take a phone I like less just because I can remove the battery.
No brand loyalty for me! I will consider this phone as one of my upgrade options that I have been sitting on. I like the specs and looks.
Are you guys crazy? They took a truly amazing phone design (one x) and butchered it to all hell. Now it looks just like the other evo phones (i. E. Dated). Yes the guts are awesome but half of what made the phone so nice was the physical design. So sad. Why can't sprint leave things alone when it comes to these matters. We don't have to look any further than our own phones to get another example of completely changing an already great phone.

I'm turned off by the size, and TouchWiz. So much so that I didn't regret springing for the One S after seeing it. But not having a removable battery is really bugging me, so I'm considering it for the first time. Not to mention HTC pulled a fast one about unlocking the bootloader. Sure, they'll unlock it, but you still have S-on, and they won't change that. That's a huge advantage to the Samsungs. They don't lock anything. Might give the HOS to the wife if I can bring myself to get the GS3...but the size really bugs me. I need to see it in person to decide.

The size really won't get less. I honestly hope it does not get bigger than this, because after this it should just be classified as something along the lines of the Galaxy Note, which is huge for a phone.
Touchwiz, I don't get why people hate it so much, is it just that they hate the manufacturer modifying the look, or is it just touchwiz?
I have loved Touchwiz since the first day. Their music app is superior and has more eye candy than any other music player I've seen (not too many options like poweramp etc. though) I do agree they theme it too much, but after all it is all eyecandy and don't tell me that once your on XDA that you won't flash a custom rom on your phone.
Samsung phones are where all the developers flock. You can call me a Samsung fanboy
Just curious, how big is the Htc One S?
Mind taking a pic of the phone with your hand next to it or something like that? I thought GS3 and the one series were all the same size.
The One X is close to the GS3, the S is just a little longer/taller than the Vibrant, 1/4" maybe, and damn near almost identical in width. And just a c-hair thinner. I'll post some photos tomorrow (technically today, I guess ).
Btw, your cwm flashable that's on the dl worked perfectly, thanks . 48gb never felt so free.
Now ask yourself, did I really just read that? Yes you did.
Personally I think this phone is great looks amazing will most likely perform great. I'd go with the white one I think the color blue they picked gives it that prepaid phone look

Oh yeah, what I don't like about TouchWiz is the candy-like backgrounds on the icons, and it tries too hard to be iOS. There's some advantages, but for the most part I feel its mostly fluff wasting valuable resources. ICS Holo theme is gorgeous, no need to play with it, unless you improve upon it with tweaks like Team Kang did with AOKP.

I agree, for some it may be a bit "cartoon" type of look, but its just hurtful to say it looks anything like iOS
Showing them together with the GS's app drawer open would be more representative of what I'm taking about. Obviously iOS on the iPhone doesn't have a "desk top" home; that would be to handy and admitting Android is better. Wait, they admitted that when they put a status bar in that could be pulled down for notifications.
I don't like the dock layout in TouchWiz, or that it can't be modified (maybe changed this time?), and the app drawer looks like a clown puked up a bunch of candy, just like the iPhone. But like you said, stock ROM doesn't have much chance of staying on the thing anyway. So it boils down to whether I can fit it in my pocket, and don't look like an idiot holding a VCR to my face when making calls (sorry Note users, I'm looking at you). And the cherry on top would be if app devs started seriously optimizing for quad core CPUs before the GS4 drops in 6 months.

Do you really think even a 10 times more powerful processor will make a difference with Samsung always laggy Touchwiz?

You have lost the sense of reality man... I owned every Samsung device since Galaxy S. So no trolling from me, but if everybody that has something with the Samsung way of doing software is a troll, then you're worse than an true Apple fanboi.
Back to the topic, a smartphone is more than a gazillion Ghz processor, it seems that even S600 clocked at 1.9Ghz is a little too much as temperature values are high as is also the battery consumption.

U do realize your still trolling right the Guy asked y didn't Samsung use the snap 8 processor the guy above said it isn't released yet answering the question
U on the other hand made no attempt to answer the question just said that that processor wouldn't have made a difference in laggy touchwiz that was completely and grossly off topic
Hence trolling
But this seems to be going nowhere so ill leave u to do whatever it is u trolls do

What a horrible attempt at deflection
I only commented because of your first post which insulted Samsung along with making zero contribution
Your second post said something that was already said
And your third post makes it out that your first post never happened
Anyway can u explain how your first post was contributing anything at all

Insulted Samsung? Really? Oh my! Probably they're all depressed now. I bet you were/are the ass kisser champion in your classroom. But relax, it's my last post on this thread... I'm no match for you, you beat me hands down.

This isn't about winning how does one win in a situation like this? I imagine the community could possibly benefit from meaningful contributions but someone winning? The fact that u said that shows me where your head is at that there is some imaginary competition that could have a winner going on now your trolling makes a bit more sense
Though said sarcastically ill take it as the end result is you leaving
Godspeed

Now finally someone I agree with

i recon Because they wanted to make it a close as possible even performance mach with the Exynos??? The S800 would of been too much for the exynos Im betting and the closest competitor was the S600 although samsung could of underclocked the S800 but this would cost them more money, why Buy a more expensive chip amd not use its full potential because you have to create an equal performance to the 1.6ghz Exynos.. No point

Because it's not available until later in summer, simple as that.
Guys,
Welcome to the smartphone industry,
As short as 3-6 months,
Your device wont be considered "latest and greatest" anymore,
We have the best processor this current date, and i recon this is still future proof until the next 2-3 years and it will serve us well for sure.
We cant keep complaining since this industry is booming and competition is rather stiff.

Just so nobody gets their hopes up too much, Samsung is about as close to producing these as they are producing a device themed after your favorite porn star at the moment.
Take this information with a huge grain of salt.
I'm a huge fan!

Yeah as of now its just speculation but I really do hope they make some, even a limited edition kinda thing. They just look too good IMO.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
samsung likes to hype and brag about a lot of stuff, but when come release time none of what they bragged about can be found to be purchased.
Samsung never 'bragged' about this... It is speculation from others.
If these do get made, I can't wait to see the posts on swappa/ebay/craigslist with huge mark ups, with words in the description like "rare" and "limited edition"
Isn't saying Samsung "might" release these based on fan renders like saying they "might" release a version with SD card slot and removable battery based on a fan render?

Nothing necessarily.
Thing is, people aren't always (read: usually aren't) intelligent enough to comprehend the difference between something that is going to happen and something that in all actuality is a nice idea that really isn't on the table.
For the sake of XDA, generally speaking, information spoken of around here tends to be factual. This is pure fantasy.
With that said, people around XDA would likely be the ones who can also tell the difference. So I personally don't have a problem with this thread. I think it's a little irrelevant and I think the title is a bit deceptive, but ehh... it is what it is (not to mention this is just the "general" subforum anyway). I get what the guy was saying though.
It sounds like this has come about because Samsung has provided a lot of stuff for the new Avengers film and people have put two and two together and got five.

This would be interesting if it wasn't listed as an "accessory."
Now It's just strange. Avengers-themed cases maybe?

Well sure, I'm wrong on May 4th.
This was posted nearly two months ago when there was no evidence of such a thing.
Time frames matter. Cute poke though.
Nontheless, this'll be cool to see for those interested.

It was rumored 2 months ago and now its coming to fruition. What a coincidence. Devices get rumored all the time before becoming official, just saying.

GASP! I had no idea. And would you believe it? Things get rumored all the time before staying rumors.
Your point?
