That makes sense. Doubtful the 4412 can match the S4 in the CPU department. However, the S4 falls way short in the GPU category, at least for the time being.
FYI, BGR is stating that HTC will release a quadcore krait with Adreno 320 in the Fall. So 2 months after release of S3, it will be pretty much irrelevant. Its becoming clear that HTC brought their A-game this year.
The quad core is for tablets and Samsung has the Exynos 5 to battle that one. They said they're just going to stick a better GPU along with the S4 Dual Core next...
Then the Quad Core Krait will come months after that. You're looking more into next year with a quad core krait phone. By then Samsung will probably have a higher clocked Exynos 4 to match it or the Exynos 5.
They're all on the same page, it'll go back and forth like that.
I hate to be an arrogant SOB, but I called this yesterday... See my personal blog here.
Anyway I think that this is important, because as I wrote, I think it will level the playing field between the One X and the GS3. The GS2 beat the pants off of the Sensation last year, with HTC using Qualcomm and Samsung using their own in house Exynos chip, but now things are different.
Simply put, most of the internals between the devices will be the same, and the main differentiating factors will be based on design quality, camera, and user experience. While I am sure that the Galaxy S 3 in the US will be better than the One S in the US, it may not be better than the One X in the US.

ok guys, help me understand this: What makes the U.S. version better than other phones already available? It's screen probably won't be as good as the HOX; its processor would be on par; its camera would probably not be as good as the HOX; Sammy's battery would probably be better but I like HTC's UI a lot. What in the world!?
We had so much expectations and this is like a nightmare coming true lol

Why do you think that the S3 will not be better than the One X?
Maybe we'll see Touchwiz 5 and be totally blown away and everyone will want. It's possible, right?
@Blitz I'm not saying that the One X will definitely be better tan the GS3, but here are a few things. 1) HTC hardware is usually better built than Samsung. Agreed, I don't like all the plastic from Samsung. Having said that, wait until May 3rd.2) The screens may be similar, but if the GS3 uses the HD Super AMOLED and not a + variation, the One X display will be better. Agreed 3) HTCs sense is toned down and is now a lean mean fighting machine, we don't know what Samsungs TouchWiz looks like for the GS3 so it may be bloated It may also be toned down and may be a lean mean fighting machine. May 3rd.. 4) Samsung has better cameras. Period. Agreed. 5) HTC works better with Qualcomm, it shows. The first GS2 using a Qualcomm chip (T-Mobiles) wasn't quite as well optimized). It required a learning curve, and Samsung improved with the Skyrocket and Note. That does not however reflect on their engineering prowness with the S4.Not familiar with T-Mobile, I'm from Canada eh?
@Snoopy I'll try to keep my arm in place.
And you're right we don't know anything about the phone, some of my stuff is speculative. But, there is a large group of people who just presume that Samsung's phone will be better than HTC based on the fact that they are Samsung. I'm just trying to point out that that may not be the case. The big thing that will make the decision for which one I think is better is where Samsung takes touch wiz.
I was all ready to by the X, but, storage space is at an all time low and I hate cloud storage and I refuse to pay for it. So I figured I'd wait for the S3 to come out and see what they're offing.
Hypothetical...what if everything else about the phone isn't as good as the One X? Is expandable storage that important to you?

@Jeffreii
Nexus Razr? (Motorola) Nexus X? (HTC) Nexus S2? Galaxy Nexus 2? (Samsung) The New Nexus? (Apple) Lumia Nexus? (Nokia)
I'd like an Apple made Nexus... (Is that sacrilegious?)
Not sure what difference Sense 4.0 makes as far as the SoC is concerned? It's definitely not as resource intensive is Sense 3.x if that's what you're referring to.
