Smart offers HTC One X on UnliData Plan 2000

mahirap pumili… mas ok battery ng htc one x kesa sa s3… pero ang storage lamang ang S3…

getting the S3 as a gift from relatives. LOL! the best things in life are free… but if I have to choose between s3 and one x.. it’s more cost efficient to get the S3 because it’s being sold on a higher market price. you can get the one x for as low as P23K unlocked then subscribe to Smart’s P1500 data plan.

I like the appearance of the HTC One X more and the 32 GB built in is better value for money for me than 16 GB expandable since I do not see myself using more than the 26 GB (user available) on the One X. I also use an HTC now so I like Sense.

But, the Samsung looks like a more compelling option. I checked with the HTC Service center and it is not clear if the battery can be replaced at the Service Center when it gets old. The Samsung has a user replaceable battery. I like Smart Stay… So the Samsung for me. If the local service center replaces batteries when they age I might go for the One X.

The thing about HTC one x is that it’s battery is not only non-user replaceable, it’s battery is impossible to remove without removing the motherboard. So even if you succesfully open the device, it’s still not sure whether you can remove the battery without damaging the phone.

Just a point to ponder : how come android users are making a big fuss on one x built in battery, yet for iphone users i didn’t hear any complaints, even with iphone 3g users

First, to maximize the battery life of a dual sim android phone, press the “Menu” key on the Home screen. From, select “Settings” to enter the phone’s settings screen.
Next, go into “Data Synchronization” under “Settings” and disable automatic sync. This will prevent the dual sim android from frequently updating mail and calendar, thus using power. Instead, email and calendars will be updated manually every time you open then.
Now decrease the screen brightness and also decrease the timeout length for the screen to switch off when not in use. Additionally, to dual sim android Battey life you can press the red End key when you are done using the phone to turn off the screen.
If you do not use Wi-Fi or Bluetooth often, turn these connectivity features off to conserve power.

Sir abe, any news if globe will be offering the One X as well? This is tempting, but I don’t want to switch carriers for now.
