While it's still not as good as a hardware one, it's the next best thing - the 4.7" screen has enough real estate for big, well-spaced keys, which are thumb-friendly.

My favorite upgrade is the big and beautiful screen.

screen resolution

Not only is it remarkably sharp (at about 312 ppi, it's virtually impossible to distinguish individual pixels), but also has great contrast and nicely saturated colors.

The screen is still not as good as on the now two year old iPhone retina display.

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)
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.

There is a lower-resolution front camera, but I would only imagine that would be useful for snapping thumbnail pics.

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)
While this is quite a sharp departure from the quad-core sporting Tegra 3 from NVIDIA, it is the only way to enjoy LTE on the smartphone at the moment.

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.

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.
Rated 100% by by Sean-D-Rice (May, 2012)
Most importantly, call quality and reception have been flawless so far.

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 loved the Retina Display on the iPhone, and although the Galaxy SII has a vivid OLED display, the resolution is significantly lower, and is further worsened by the larger screen.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by C.-Wang--Cheng (May, 2012)
I've never seen such display quality, HD resolution, great dynamic range, realistic colors and bright.

Battery

As it stands, I am one week through my 30 day return period and am trying to decide weather to keep it or return it and wait for the Galaxy S3, which in my opinion does not look as nice, but has a better camera, upgradable storage, better quality and bigger screen and better battery life.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 60% by by Bluelondon
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.

Operating System

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.

The build quality is the best of any Android I've ever seen.

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.
HTC One X for AT&T Dual Core | Rated 100% by by Jerome-A.-Kaufman--JerryKaufman (Aug, 2012)

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).
