What will you choose?
Sony Xperia S is actually available at Class for 600~630$
HTC One X and S would be available at Amhaz beginning/mid April,too bad Class doesn't bring HTC,we would have win warranty ;)
SGS3 is rumoured to be unveiled in April for a summer release!
If you ask me, I will get the One X

A super-fast processor, a large display, ICS, large battery, awesome camera, beats audio, latest Sense interface and a pretty design. What more would you ask for?
Keep in mind people, the best thing about HTC is their HTC Sense... And how "Smart" it is. Apparently, it keeps getting smarter.
While the S3 might (i guess not) be better, and will definitely (i assume) get higher benchmark results, it is still way to ugly to use. It even looks like an iPhone for god's sake!

Are there new players entering the market this year?
vegetaleb
Yep the One X is the first Quad CPU phone!
I tried Sense 4.0 on Sensation (thanks XDA) and it's way better than sense 3.6.
The One X screen as experts saw it on MWC is the best screen on Android

Also Huawei with "Ascend D Quad XL" and ZTE with "Era" phone, both of them quad-core 1.5Ghz speed

Sony Sola with the first floating touch non-touch screen, you don't have to touch it to swap things!!

when will this HTC one X come out??
vegetaleb
Probably add 1 week on top of 5 April and Amhaz will have it.
Though I dont recommend buying it first 2 weeks because price will drop 100/150$ as usual
devilsadvocate
i will be waiting for a couple weeks anyway,what do you think the price will be after the 2 weeks?
plus waiting for the reviews.
vegetaleb
IF the price will be like Sensation then:
-First week : 650/670$
-2nd week: 600/620$
-3rd week: 550/580$
After a month it should reach stability with price bracket 500/550$
Again this is based on Sensation's prices, it can be more or less.
Don't look at actual pre-order price of 700 to 900$ for Europe because they always are super overpriced before they reach the stores

Definitely the hTC One X! Also try to get the "premium" edition, it comes with big beats headphone!
devilsadvocate
its unexpected that i pass up this phone,im ditching apple for this beautiful beast,and tbh i prefer earbuds,having huge headphones over your neck is kinda gimmicky and distracting and a huge hassle imo,i use big headphones when im on the computer,and i wont mind them of course.
vegetaleb
The HTC One S and X are already available in some European countried and will be spreaded officially on Monday 2nd of April!!!

Still debating if i should sell my Xperia x10i and buy an Evo 3D and upgrade it to ICS
Or just wait for the Xperia S's price to drop
Advice ?
vegetaleb
Hehe it's the first time for years that a S(E)ony phone keep high price for so long!
The Xperia S is still expensive because Class is behind it I think, dunno what reaction will have Amhaz once the One X arrive. There will be at last competitivity with Xperia S.
Btw the One X is a hell of a phone,all the end users who got it are amazed!
I don't know if I will stand the wait for a price decrease this time
devilsadvocate
i have 550 bucks to spend on the One X,im gonna wait till it reaches this price,or i might buy a EVO 3D and get ICS ON THAT BABY!,but i will wait.
Vegetaleb,i wont go for the Xperia S if i was you,HTC will always retain that sluggish gritty powerhouse android feel,the xperia S is dual core,plus it feels a little bit more simple,nobody does a better UI over android then HTC
vegetaleb
The HTC Sensation price reached 550$ after 3 weeks if I remember well, it started at 650$.
The One X should be the same or ~30$ more because no sgs3 to do competition...
The-MMMs
actually gave the htc one a look .. seems quite epic
guess ill wait, ill stand to gain either way.
vegetaleb
From what Modaco and Engadget said in the reviews, the One X corrected 2 old default on HTC phones (for me).
The screen is usable under sunlight and the speaker for ringtones is as loud as nokia and Sony phones at last!
Only the camera didn't match the very high expectations but still very good and superior to prior HTC phones
