Forth hardware and OS, the HTC One X has a 1.5 GHz quad-core processor, while the Samsung Galaxy S3 is equipped with a 1.4 GHz quad-core processor as both smartphones pack a whole lot of processing power.

Both smartphones are capable of running advanced versions of the Android OS. Upon their release into the market, these two came with Android 4.0 out the box, nothing to be amazed by, as they both pack quite a punch, specification-wise.

For battery usage and camera specs, Both Li-Ion batteries are pretty good however, the Samsung Galaxy S3 has the advantage over its competitor, having a bigger and better 2100 mAh unit than the HTC One X's 1800 mAh battery unit.

The Samsung Galaxy S3 has a great 8 MP rear camera and a 1.9 MP front camera, with HD recording and Burst Mode that, however, can capture only up to 20 photos.
