Hi Guys,
I am planning to buy either Incredible S or Sensation. Their Price difference is 2K.
I have read somewhere that Incredible S will be stop from service soon.. Is that so??? If so, i hope the ROM development activities will be carried forward here..
So , Which one should i buy??
Cheers!!!!
Personally I'd get a sensation. I only got this due to it being on sale and I needed a phone quick. .....2k? What currency ?

Indian Rupees,, Incredible S 20K INR and Sensation 22K INR
Check the specs but I'm pretty sure sensations are more powerful for pretty much the same price.

HTC Sensation is a little bit more powerfull ( at least the processor ). The mobile itself isn't that much better than Incredible S but it has a better support. It is more recent so it gets official updates first and will probably still get more updates than Incredible S. HTC Sensation also has been a very popular phone so I guess it also has a better comunity than the Inc S. The only thing that would be making me bying an Inc S (besides the price but the difference seem low) would be the design. I like a lot the design of the Inc S and it is a little smaller.
Hey guys! my Incredible S has been habi g issues with the charging lately, and dust has got into the front facing camera so I'm thinking some time soon it might be time to upgrade.
I have recently been offered a few phones and would appreciate your input,
The first is a HTC sensation, also a HTC vivid, a Motorola DROID RAZR, and a galaxy s2 lte
Which one would you go for? Or should I wait until my ics completely dies? All phones are being offered for 300 except the sensation at 250

Check each forum to see how active the devs are.
Personally id go with the galaxy or wait for other dual cores to drop in price.

I'm on AT&T and looking at getting the HTC One X, SG3, or waiting on the note 2. Any advice as to which phone I should I get?

Well, if you had to buy now, I would say you get the Galaxy SIII. You might hate Touchwiz, but if Sense is your thing, there's a port of Sense 4 coming from the Sense4all guys. Performance is good, and you should expect a Jelly Bean rollout soon.
The One X is a good device, but if you plan on rooting it, the 2.20 update (which is on all shipped S4 One X/XL devices) essentially puts you out of luck. The international version is fine, though, and you can also get an official bootloader unlock on it.

i say Siii or wait until the new Samsung note comes out
I say hold off a little longer til you can compare the s3, and note 2 to the One X+. Remember, a variant of the X+ just passed through the FCC, bound for AT&T, just 2 weeks ago. We should hopefully get a definite release date at their events scheduled for tomorrow. My opinion, wait for the Note 2 and X+ to release and compare those 2.

Gonna upgrade too... But waiting on the one x+.
Sent from my HTC Velocity 4G
same here looking at the X+ but will it give issues like current HOX users are having now, no root and bootloader locked
Thanks for the recommendations, I'll wait to compare the S3, note 2 and One X+. Maybe the One X+ will be easier to unlock and root versus the current One X.
One X+ looks great, just the thing I've been looking to upgrade to. I really hope its easier to root and unlock bootloader than the current One X.
On a design note, am I the only one who really hates the red soft buttons?
EDIT: Actually it seems as of the AT&T version of the One X+ is going to keep the white capacitive buttons

I had a Vivid and upgraded to the One X, could not be more happier.
Yeah I was just looking at the One X+ and comparing it to the note 2, at phone area and both are great looking phones.
If the One X+ is easier to root i might go with it rather then the note 2 sense i really don't like the touchwiz ui.
Any ideas on what to get? I am so over the vivid that I'm not even going to root or s-off. I filed an insurance claim cause I thought it broke and when the new one was sent out, I fixed the old one. So fml on that. I don't want to be stuck with this much longer.

Go with the s3. My mom just got one and it's a glorious device. Easy to root and plenty of great ROMs to flash. HTC will more than likely continue to give the development community the middle finger.

It does seem like the device to get, but the glass back and lack of lte is a bit of a downer. A reviewer for some company dropped it off a desk and wound up with a major crack on the back. Seems like they could have used a bit more common sense in the design. A case should protect it well enough, but it's still ridiculous that a device of that quality has such a weak exterior.

Yes it does. Just below the screen. Likely full RGB, too.

Nexus 4! Just pay a little more and no contract. In fact, drop AT&T and use StraightTalk.
Nexus 4 ftw!

After two years with the HTC Incredible S, the phone's USB port has broken for the second time, forcing a change decision. The contenders are:
1. HTC Butterfly. 2. Sony Xperia Z. 3. HTC One.
Discussions of Pros/Cons:
Screen size: HTC B=SXZ>HTC 1.
Display (PPI, Brightness/contrast/technology): HTC1>HTC B>SXZ.
Processors/RAM/GPU: HTC 1>SXZ=HTC B.
Battery: SXZ>1>B.
Build quality/aesthetics: SXZ=1>B.
Root/boot loader unlockable/ CID Unlockable: SXZ>>1&B. This aspect is most important for future usability once OEM discontinues support (ref HTC HD2).
Memory/storage: SXZ (16+32/64)=B(16+32/64)>1(32/64, only 32 planned in India, as yet).
Price low to high, India only, sim-free, carrier-free: SXZ(<40k)>B(43-45k)>1(>50k)..
After solving the matrix, I've come to the conclusion that I'll buy the SXZ. Your comments/advice?
Dead cookies leave no trails...
PS.The same question is also posed on the SXZ,HTC B AND HTC 1 Indian buyer forums.
Well I'm getting a note 2 within the next week

HTC One im getting. The dev support seems its going to be as great as the HOX. I doubt there will be any issues in unlocking and s-off. Especially since HOX got facepalm s-off.

Well yeah, but might as well check out the best upgrade available? :laugh:
As for me, getting the HTC One, my Inc S is still good for at least another year, but I'd really like to get a new one.
Thanks for all your help and advice. I bought a Sony Xperia Z three days back,and am loving every minute with this new phone.

I'm sticking with Google phones going forward. They are the only phones that can be brought brand new for under 400.00 US dollars. The One is almost 600 and the GS4 will probably be around 600.

Probably go Samsung s4
I wanted to see a visual representation of which device people in the Vivid forums are switching too. Im with the S4 :highfive:
S4 for me as well...probably use my upgrade to get the att variant...then ill sell it at close to full retail price and use that towards the international version

Neither. Something better will be out before the end of the year. Picking up the Nexus 5 and holding onto my upgrade.

HTC One all the way , I know they sometimes disappointing but im inlove their phone LOL
If I had to choose between the two phones, I would choose the S4. The HTC One's issues with battery life is my biggest concern. I am probably not going to get either phone as my contract doesn't end till June 2014. If I was going to upgrade I was thinking about getting the Blu Life One, it is half the price, comes unlocked and there is no overlaying OS on top of Android.

While the one looks impressive, after having 3 HTC phones and **** support for all 3 including the major issues devs have had with the devices I'm def going Samsung next. All HTC care about is selling devices then abandoning them, and while I still love the look and feel of HTC they have dug their own grave.

ill be upgrading to the S4 as soon as it comes out
