We knew that the HTC One X would be landing on AT&T at some point in the near future, but it may be sooner than you think. According to BGR, the highly anticipated handset could land on store shelves as early as next week.
When it does become officially available in the US, the One X will be the best phone in the market, by far. The international version’s sleek design will be retained in AT&T’s offering, unlike the WTF different design found on the upcoming Sprint EVO 4G LTE. The One X is just a taste of whats to come this year, and it tastes pretty damn good.
No longer will the NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core CPU be running the show in the US One X devices, and it will be replaced with a dual-core Qualcomm-made chipset to support LTE networks. This doesn’t slow the handset down in any way but we likely won’t see handsets with both a NVIDIA CPU and LTE support until the end of the year.
While the One X is certainly a force to be reckoned with, there’s another phone on the horizon that can steal all the lime light away from HTC’s new One line. Of course, that handset would be the Samsung Galaxy S III. Now that we have the official announcement date – a mere 17 days away, those of you wanting HTC’s new device may want to hold off to see what Sammy’s new flagship handset will be packing. That said, the Galaxy S III likely won’t hit the states for at very least a month after its announced, so if you’re looking for a powerful device in the next few weeks, the One X should be more than enough.
If the One X is set to land on AT&T shelves by next week, we certainly don’t have much time to wait. So in the mean time, you should check out our review of the device here if you haven’t already.
