Rezound vs One Series

[anon(94115)]

Right now I am stuck in an office, so I am constantly charging. When I am on the road though, I will be carrying and extra battery.

With my Charge, I had 2 extended batteries and I will kill them both after a good day running around. That is with no charging throughout the day, even though I could have...

I think it is a must....but i could be persuaded I guess with an incredible battery....

5 foot phone?

20000 ma battery....

The one series is awesome, but I'm happy I got the rezound. Removable battery and sd, plus the screen is better than the one s. I am however very jealous of the s4 processor

Many will disagree, but I think the one x is too big just like the nexus is. My personal opinion is that a phone with a 4.3" screen and little to no bezel would be perfect size. Basically a rezound with a smaller footprint. I can't stand these ridiculously huge tablet-like phones.

I also have the Rezound and IMO is a better phone. I go for the hardware first and then software. Once the Rezound gets ICS it will be the best device out there. It has great hardware with plenty of storage. (sd-card) Screen is great and great overall feel in your hand. After the Rezound gets the official ICS software the stock sized battery will take you thru an entire day easily. This is the only device I have not rooted and flashed a custom Rom right away and I have had just about every phone out there. The Rezound is that good IMO. HTC ruined that new phone, when you give the custoer under 10gb of usable internal memory you must supply an sd-card. That to me is a joke. I will never buy a new phone without ample interior storage.
PS AT&T has the new HTC's bootloader locked down tite as a ducks ass.

Interesting turn of events since the gsm model has been rooted for weeks now.

it's a beautiful phone but the lack of sd and battery kills it for me at least. i have 20gb of music alone on my card. if they added a bit of thickness to the onex and gave it a crazy razr maxx size battery that would help. then an sd slot. shrink it to a 4.5 or 4.3 screen and then it would be close to perfect.

i wish i had the onex camera, and of course ICS with sense 4.0.

fyi i have 2 standard batteries and 2 extended ones. whichever one i'm rocking on the phone i slide in the spare into my wallet. i've been carrying around a spare battery in my wallet since the first nexus and i don't even notice it.

You should have that music up in the cloud...even though I doubt it would all fit.

I have yet to mess with one extensively, and doubt I will, but it really doesnt do much for me. There also seems to be issues galore with the rodgers one....

Surely, the music would fit in Google Music. Isn't it unlimited cloud storage?

20,000 songs plus on google music. The bad thing is the player is crap. In fact, all the streaming players are crap. DropBox sucks for stuff like music and pictures as well. Amazon's player as well is pretty terrible. If Google lets 3rd party apps access your Google Music, then I'm in, until then, SD card it is.

valid point on the music quality..this is why beats is wasted on me....it isnt bad enough for me to hate it like that

When it comes to options w/ services they never give you to much of a good thing. It always seems like there's always something holding it back from being ideal.

It's called job security for the programmers and they love adding decimal points to builds.

That is becoming googles M.O. for sure lately. Even ICS feels the same way. Stock is fine, until you use Apex or Nova launcher, and you wonder, "Self, why isn't stock ICS this awesome?" Google Music is the same way. It's okay and then you use PowerAMP or something else. Sense 4 is wicked though. I really hope the Devs get what they need soon to make it 100%, and then really the Rezound stacks up nicely against this new generation of phones.

I was talking to my brother about this, and it's true, the Rezound is gonna be the first phone in a while that will pretty much be the best/equal for 2 waves of phones (hardware wise). Also, looks like the One series is gonna be pretty hard to develop for. And in some peoples eyes, nothing matters more than the community of devs that surrounds a phone.

Why make a great phone to start with when you can release something better and make a ton of money. Look at I4 and I4s. "ZOMG, SERI AND A BETTER CAMERA......I QUIVER IN ANTICIPATION!"

THat's fine, because all my friends with Iphones stopped using them around me when i would whip out my T-bolt and be many steps a head of them in pulling up videos.

How many people that have issues with an integrated battery actually carry an extra battery with them to swap out?

Is one of those portable battery chargers a suitable substitute for an extra battery? (I don't know because I dont have issues getting my phone on a charger.

I hate to say this but most likely we will be having most of the phones with integrated batteries.

I am fine with a integrated battery under the following conditions though.

1.) Minimum 3500 mA. (They will need that for 4G and the screen)

2.) They straighten out power management so I do not "need" to tweak my phone for better performance.

3.) Don't F it up.

I have a spare battery that I use on trips and to swap out with my kids when they forget to charge their rezounds. I also have an extended battery that I can use when needed.

Personally two of the main reasons I switched to Android phones were microSD card slots and exchangeable batteries. I was happy to see both of these are in the GSIII. All High end Androids should have a microSD slot.

Great so I can eat up data every time I want to listen to music that I can easily have on my phone. I don't have unlimited data to waste to download something that is easy to keep on my local device.

The new mindset - in which data plans are limited - hasn't really set in for most folks. Once the carriers wipe out all unlimited data plans, this will change (although, I hope that won't happen anytime soon).
