Samsung I9300 Galaxy S III vs. HTC One X: Alien vs. Predator

11 May 2012
There's no battle to end all battles in this industry but there's no point either trying to reason with two deadly droids, armed with the latest technology. We have two of the season's hottest smartphones in combat mode and Android supremacy is...

      Cal, 15 May 2012I have a one X and the music playback is OK for my needs vi... moreI don't recommend buying Beats headphones in the first place since it is catered for a consumerly-sound, more bass less clarity and over-all muffled sound, not really a price-performance ratio headphone...but if you do, the Beats Audio in HTC One X may correct the tonality from your Beats as they tend to EQ the bass and the treble to make the sound more balanced. But still not on par with the latest quality headphones.

      If SGS3 has the Wolfson Chip DAC as someone said here, the analog signal would be better - meaning a very good headphone will shine on the SGS3 rather than the One X. Very Good Headphone examples are the VModa M80, Senn HD5-II, AudioTechnica ATH-M50/ASW10 B&W P5, Beyer DT1350 or the Phiaton M9, which are excelent-price-performance portable headphones. Not Beats.

                I have a a liittle doubt here don't know wether its b'coz I m not that techie or something.
                Since in web browsing android gives u the closest to desktop experience like flash etc... than iOS or any other mobile platform so speaking of desktop experience there r some files that can b downloaded only by right-clicking and selecting the option 'save target as' in order to download that file in windows xx OS (dont know about mac) so how to download that kind of files on android web browser.

GSMArena receives handsets from the producers before the handsets get on the market. The SGS 3 is not sold right now because Samsung needs to build enough stock to satisfy all the customers, otherwise people get frustrated if they cannot find a product, and/or the product can be speculated on the market.

                              Anonymous, 15 May 2012Have you used either phone? i havent but i have seen comparisons on youtube and i used to have an s2 and a galaxy nexus, the s2 had a much smoother browser than the nexus which is wierd cause its googles android but with samsungs optimization the experience is flawless, plus benchmarks show that samsung has optimized thier web browser very well while htc only slightly tweak it :)

                                      Personally i prefer the galaxy s3 looks, i dont care if its plastic. And you will feel the difference in the browser, samsung optimize thier browser so that its really smooth and you will definitely notice the difference between one x and sgs3 browser, pinch to zoom will be smoother and scrolling will be smoother too, i have watched the one x browser on youtube it stutters when trying to scroll or pinch to zoom on some sites.

                                        Denzo, 15 May 2012So iPhone is the best using your theory. Single best smartp... moreSure, Denzo. Iphone.
