I've not ordered the X but the S and these are my reasons/believes

1) Build quality - The S has an outer metal shell the X has a plastic shell. I'm
upgrading from a Desire.

Can someone please confirm that both the S black and Grey have metallic shells?

2) Better screen on S?

3) Slightly smaller and lighter

4) 16gb onboard would appear to be enough storage for me, got by with Desire for 2 years only rooted 6 months ago.

5) No current apps utilize the quad core processors.


I would like to hear peoples views from both sides please. Still time to cancel not shipping to 11/4 with Dial a phone and free sky sports via the hub too!

Here are the Stats.....

One X Super IPS LCD2 capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors Size 720 x 1280 pixels, 4.7 inches (~312 ppi pixel density)

V.S.

One S Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors size 540 x 960 pixels, 4.3 inches (~256 ppi pixel density)

From a stats standpoint, the One S screen is far inferior to the One X. Look and the pixel density as one example!? That's a reason HTC made the One X the Flagship phone of the 3 devices!
