Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “HTC One X Vs Samsung Galaxy S2 Full Review”.
Okay, hate you: this is going to be a review and comparison between the HTC One X, the quad-core Tegra 3 international version versus Samsung’s Galaxy S, 2 of the previous generation of smartphones. This one is packing a dual-core 1.2 gigahertz processor, and this one, as I said, is a quad core with a 1.5 gigahertz clock, speed, Tegra 3 processor, so I mean they’re them. You know. The main difference is the RAM. Is one gigabyte on both models and the screen size is four point three inches over here versus four point: seven over there, so the HTC One X is also significantly larger.
So we can see it is thinner by looking at the sides, but only slightly and to be honest, it does look better. It has a very nice matte finish, which makes cont holding it significantly more comfortable, whereas the sort of the plastic mesh we have on here. Just feels quite cheap to be honest, we have an 8 megapixel camera on both and they both do snap, some pretty good, pretty good shots. So the display we have on the HTC One X is a full sorry, HD display, which is 1280 by 720, and it’s a super LCD to technology compared with the Super AMOLED plus on the galaxy s2, so you’ll notice, the colors are crisper and more vivid on This display, but there’s a high contrast, although they look like we will enter a quadrant benchmark. This should give us a good idea of the set of advances in performance from the previous generation sort of single and dual-core systems compared with our quad-core current systems. So, at the same time, alter run for benchmark, so we can see can see.
The HTC One X is faster by quite a fair margin, but the scores at the end will tell us really so, as you probably could tell the 1x pretty much ace that benchmark running over to now constant 60 frames per second and the galaxy s2 is not Doing too bad either so wait until both are finished and then we’ll send off the benchmark. Scores just keep the screen on. Why? Don’T you, okay right so Samsung, Galaxy s2 has a score of 3285 and the HTC One X has a score of five thousand. Nine hundred and three so really a pretty significant improvement. I mean it’s one step: we have the internet browsers, so we will launch the stock browsers of both phones and see how they perform compared with each other. So watch that and that and we’ll both visit Apple calm, okay, three two one so I’d say it’s very close.
Both machines, I’d say: maybe the s2, maybe slightly b, b, b 1x to it. Pinching to zoom, is very smooth on both. However, as you can see, with the galaxy s2, you get more of this sort of fracture defect of the webpage when you zoom in the rest of it sort of ask to reload again when you zoom out it’s less prominent on the 1x. That’S still present so both offer a very smooth and slick experience, and we have no problems here.
You know the web page has Flash content as well as fairly high high resolution pictures, and both events have no problem with that. So I’ll try a different website. Three. Two one: okay, quite do that right, so you have to get on the galaxy. S2 beats the HTC One X, which just goes to show that I mean dual-core is not necessarily worse. Okay and now we will load up Jess, I’m arena. So again we can see the the galaxy s2 is beating the 1x, which I mean just goes to show that I mean to course, is not necessarily worse than four in some cases so um, you know both again, they load up very quickly, but the there’s two Did win and, as you can see, the the browser is very well optimized for um the s2 we’ll try some more web pages, and then we will take a look at some gaming perform there. We go about enter the HTC website.
Three two one very quick on both as you can see, the flash content does play and yeah I mean I again. I would say if anything, the galaxy s ii did slightly went out. The One X and I mean the One X – is proposed to get a jelly bean update soon, which should improve the browser performance. But as it stands, you know the the s2 is definitely putting up a tough fight and it seems pretty hard to to justify the quad core HTC being beaten by the old dual-core s2.
So one final website I mean we’ll try some signal on its home ground. It’S just I’ll go to Samsung’s website and here, okay, so three two one and I would say that one’s pretty my case for the gaming comparison, I will be using beach buggy blitz, which is a free game on the Google Play Store and as a fairly good Benchmark as it’s quite a demanding game, so just get that up. So the one X is at a slight disadvantage in this benchmark because it has to run the game at a higher resolution, but we’ll see if it still keeps up the same frame rate. So again, you can see that the contrast is definitely higher on the s2 and so is the frame rate. As you can see the frame rate you know this is definitely a full 60 and this is difficult. I’Ve never driven two cars at once right. There are a few tegra specific features that you can see on the 1x, such as the water droplets, and when you go into a cave, you get a nice lighting effect as you’re. Just about to see you don’t get on the s2 but, like I said before, and they are really just add-ons which don’t really enhance the game experience.
They just add a few wild moments. Perhaps if you could say that – and I mean yeah – the game is not any more impressive on the 1x, even though the resolution is lower on the galaxy s2 screen, the fact that it runs at a higher frame rate more than compensates for that, so I mean To conclude this review, I would say: I’m a little bit disappointed with the 1x, considering that it doesn’t really enhance on the experience of the previous generation of smartphones. It was released more than a year after the galaxy s2, and by no means is it a bad phone. It’S a great phone, but not only of HTC sort of ignored their own handset.
By not releasing the jellybean update two months after they said they would. But the phone itself doesn’t stand up to the the dual-core s2 in terms of performance. I mean theoretically in terms of benchmarking. Yes, it does it’s, it does beat the s2, but in real term performance it really just doesn’t hold its ground, which is surprising and just a little bit disappointing.
