    Help me decide please... Nokia Lumia 900 vs. HTC One X

    Guys,
    I'm due for an upgrade from AT&T. I am currently using the iPhone 4. Frankly want a change as I have been using the iPhone since the 3Gs came out. I am debating between the Nokia Lumia 900 and the new HTC One X. Can you please help me decide? Also would it be beneficial to get the unlocked international HTC One X? I live in an area where LTE doesn't exist (Columbus, OH) and (Youngstown, OH). So I would only rely on AT&T 3G service. I would probably go for white color whichever phone I end up buying...
    Thank You

    I would go with the One X but I am not sure if it is beneficial to go with the international version --- the performance being the same anyway --- unless you plan on traveling.

    Thank you again.

    If I were to go Android route, is the HTC One X still preferred to the Google Nexus? That phone with ICS is available via google play (unlocked) for $399...

    There is one issue with the One X that appeared in the HoFo review thread (http://www.howardforums.com/showthre...-the-HTC-One-X), which I find to be a deal-breaker: it scratches very easily, as in "may as well be made from bars of soap".

    EDIT: I posted below thinking that the HTC One X was a windows phone ( I was thinking of the Titan) and the OP was trying to decide between two windows phones. I now realize that its between Android and Windows Phone. That's a whole other ball of wax and it comes down to your personal OS preference.
    I'm not a big fan of Android and I'm sick of iOS after six years of it, so that's why I tried something refreshing and got the Nokia 900. Best of luck with your decision!

    Original post:
    I have a Lumia 900 and I love it. The great thing about it is the free nokia software you can download for it. Nokia Drive, Nokia Maps, Nokia Transit, Nokia City Lens (beta but available), the Nokia ESPN app, Creative Studio....these apps are a big deal and they blow any other manufacturer specific apps out of the water.
    I also think the design of the hardware is incredibly sexy, not to mention a superior looking screen (AMOLED Pure Black) where the colors pop out and look great and the blacks are deep and inky black.

    I'm curious as to what attributes the previous posters can list for the HTC One X that would make it the obvious choice in their opinion.

    Not bad. No matter how advanced (even the One X), I would always prefer an unlocked, no contract phone. Plus in some ways, the GSM Galaxy Nexus is better than the Verizon version.
