Galaxy SIII vs One X vs Galaxy Nexus!

2012-07-13
hey what's up guys I'm Kay PhD here now I've reviewed three really high-end phones in the past couple of months or so Samsung Galaxy s3 the HTC One X and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and ever since I've reviewed the third of those three the Galaxy s3 I get this one very specific question almost everyday and that's which one should I get so I figured I'd address all three with this video and hopefully I'll be able to help you guys out and make the decision and if you enjoy it give it the thumbs up so here's the thing the biggest difference between these three phones is really the newness and the price Galaxy s3 is the newest of the bunch is the most recently available and it has the highest price second up would be the HTC One X which has been available for around in about a month and the oldest of the bunch which is actually released in November of last year is the Samsung Galaxy Nexus if you're stuck between the galaxy s3 and the HTC One X I've to tell you both of them are very different in terms of software but they're pretty similar in terms of hardware internally they're both quad core devices the galaxy s3 happens to have two gigs of ram but it has a sort of a lower quality outside build they both have an eight megapixel camera but they're both really really high-end internally and externally so if you're picking between those two I actually think you should pick between you're really picking between Sense UI and TouchWiz seriously you should take a look at the way HTC has handled their updates which is probably not the best out of them all and the way Samsung has handled their updates with TouchWiz TouchWiz is a very very different user interface than the way HTC has handled sensi why and then the Nexus comes into play for those of you with a lower budget because this phone is a little bit older but like we said this is running the latest version of Android because it's Nexus so you're gonna have Android 4.1 when you get this guy out the box now there's a small group of people that are stuck between the HTC One X and the Galaxy Nexus some of those people I always just say go with the Galaxy Nexus is just as sort of a default for me I have a hard time recommending the One X over a lot of things right now there's a larger group of people who are stuck between the galaxy s3 and the HTC One X like we said these are both high-end phones but you're going to be choosing between TouchWiz and Sense UI and lastly there's a group of people who are saying well should I get the galaxy s3 which is new or should I get the older and Galaxy Nexus and actually save money and there's a valid point here the Galaxy Nexus has gone all the way down to about $350 from buying it directly from Google in the Google Play Store whereas an unlocked Galaxy s3 is going to cost close to twice that so here's how you decide if you want hardware you go with the galaxy s3 but if you're a real Android person or if you value software you're going to want to go with the Samsung Galaxy Nexus it's pretty easy to see that the hardware of the Galaxy Nexus it isn't bad but it is outclassed in pretty much every way by the galaxy s3 the s3 has a higher resolution and better quality camera it has a louder speaker it has a larger display it has twice the RAM it has twice the cores and a faster clock speed and the processor its overall just every single bit of that hardware is better and that's why you're going to want to go with that if you value hardware if you value software if you're an Android person and Android enthusiasts a google enthusiast if you're someone who likes to get into different rums modding hacking rooting for someone who really values the Android ecosystem and having the latest updates because you're pretty much promised that once you get the Galaxy Nexus that's Google's baby right now Android 4.0 on the galaxy s3 Android 4.1 and Counting on the Galaxy Nexus so if you're a software person then you want to go with the Galaxy Nexus and last but not least if you're on a budget you're gonna want to go with the Galaxy Nexus because that is just a great phone for the money the bang for your buck you get that phone it still has a 1.2 gigahertz dual-core processor 1 gig of ram and project butter which makes it fast I think you'll be happy with that if you're on a budget so let me know which one you would decide to have if you have the choice in the comment section below and give it a thumbs up on this video if you enjoyed it what was this thumbs up if you liked it and I'll talk to you guys in the next video I'll definitely be going in a much more in-depth video comparing some of the hardware I mentioned in this video stay tuned thanks for watching and to air it you
