The screen is still not as good as on the now two year old iPhone retina display.
One X for AT&T by Book-buyer (May, 2012)
The HTC One X has a color-accurate IPS screen (so does the iPhone 4), but at the whopping 1280x720 resolution (compared to 960x640 on the iPhone).

The manufacturing of the One X's newer dual-core is more efficient than the older quad-core processor, and sites benchmarking the two have come up with almost identical performance scores.
One X for AT&T by Pyanfar-Chanur (May, 2012)
The difference in processing speeds will not be that noticable as the dual-core is actually plenty fast for 99% of the population (the dual-core is faster than the international quad-core, but the X+ is faster than both - nevertheless, read my comments above on "specs).

There is a lower-resolution front camera, but I would only imagine that would be useful for snapping thumbnail pics.
One X for AT&T by Pyanfar-Chanur (May, 2012)
The flash is decent for a phone, but just like a regular camera your image quality is best when you shoot with plenty of lighting.

Pros: Fast processor (apps launch fast, phone starts up REALLY fast, never encountered any lag); Great screen; fast camera; 25GB dropbox space FREE for 2 years (look it up)!
One X for AT&T by Disappointed (Aug, 2012)
I'm blown away by how snappy this device is; the dual core processor combined with Ice Cream Sandwich make everything about this phone silky smooth.

I don't think it will since the most talk time per month I use is only about 20 minutes tops.

Battery size is average, could've been bigger and removable, but the battery life is very good.

Reviews Word on the street

Read the review (May, 2012)
The smartphone's weakest point will undoubtedly be the limited amount of built-in memory - it's non-expandable and 13 gigs worth of storage are not too likely to cut it for heavy users these days, considering the fact that graphic intensive video games easily hit the 700MB download mark.
Rated 72% by 107 users at amazon.com
Overall however, based on stats alone I'd take the SIII over the One X. Also, the T-Mobile version of the One also has a Super Amoled screen and not the Super HD LCD display like the AT&T model, and it is clearly not as good, this isn't subjective, it just IS.

Camera is fabulous, it's better then most cameras in cameras.
Rated 60% by by Vineet-Tyagi--Viny2cool (Jul, 2012)
In fact, the camera on this phone is FAR better than my point and shoot digital camera, which sadly is now obsolete.

Screen

Super fast with a gorgeous display - this phone has one of the best displays I've ever seen.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Daryl-Kurtz (May, 2012)
I've never seen such display quality, HD resolution, great dynamic range, realistic colors and bright.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Richard-L.-Weatherly--RichWeatherly43 (Jul, 2012)
The display with Gorilla Glass is remarkable with about a 178 degree viewing angle.

Battery

Battery is really bad, and since the One X has a unibody design (which I love), there's no swapping batteries.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Linh-Nguyen (Jun, 2012)
No removable battery - the phone has great battery life, and a hard reset option built in, but if you run out of juice you can't swap out the battery.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Daryl-Kurtz (May, 2012)
As far as the concerns in other reviews (battery life; internal memory; bootloader locked, etc) I have not found these to be a problem.-Battery Life: I can get 2 days out of it easily, but I'm not using it for video and gaming on a regular basis.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Disappointed (Aug, 2012)

Apps

Cloud storage has replaced most of these needs for high memory, and with 4G, it is even easier to sync with the cloud.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Billy-Y. (May, 2012)
I've heard of complaints about it being too aggressive, but it seems to work quite well, and memory is managed efficiently between sense, background apps, and foreground-running apps.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Dan-Levy--Dan-Levy (Jun, 2012)
Finally, the HTC Sync Manager makes synchronizing files and information with your PC a real pleasure and a vast improvement over iTunes.

Type

I have used many android and iOS devices over the year and have to say this device took me by surprise.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by michael (Jun, 2012)
Since I been using iphones since 2007 the new Android phone is definitely a fun new experience so far.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by smalltaco--mxted (May, 2012)
The build quality is the best of any Android I've ever seen.

Operating system

The display is brilliant and Android with HTC sense, differentiates it enough from iOS for Apple not to sue it.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by S.-Kolinjavadi--skolin (Oct, 2012)
Using the excuse that the phone only has 1GB of RAM, they're handling multitasking very aggressively.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Linh-Nguyen (Jun, 2012)
This new OS is a remarkable improvement in many small ways, such as being able to customize just about every feature (as I'd mentioned earlier with the upload settings).
