Well considering you're an expert bout one x i think it's better for all of us who follow your thread to get your wife HoX tegra version, if you get snapdragon you would spend time on it as well which would mean less time for us and i'm enjoying your thread very much and your findings lol, So forget i ever mentioned s4 version =P.
As for build quality i have a small weird theory about durrability:
Whatever new device i get and care for it as much as i can, screen protectors, cases etc .. device gets either broken by accident or scratched eventually , as for HoX i took different path, i don't use the case nor the screen protector cuz i belive if i bought this beatufil looking device i would like to feel it 100% not covering it entierly , anyway my theory proved me that if i don't care for saving my hox from scratches etc is working, my phone is old 9 months now NEVER had ANY issues with it, i droped it at least 50 times by now since i have it either that be on the road, on the floor once almsot ended up in the toilet but managed to hit it before it ended up inside and hit the wall then floor anyway my hox is like i just unboxed it , for some reason it doesn't have even a scratch on the screen nor the cover which is by far the best build qualitty phone i ever had and i had many phones. As for the software i love sense and everything about it especially with custom roms, the only *Real* issue that i have with hox would be battery , i can't seam to be able to pass over 6hrs screen avarage use which is still impressive but i feel it could be better if i could get me M7 battery , that damn thing should provide me over 10hrs screen time or more another thing would be S-OFF , i'm dying to have it only for bragging rights ( dual boot lol ) cuz i'm surounded by ppl who are always following tech and we literally fight on daily bases which phone is better lol which is fun, some of them have s3 some bitten apple some hox =p , each phone has something better then the other BUT NONE HAS Hamdir muahaha =D So with your pressence in this hox forum i consider as a huge plus for me and other hox users. Anyway can't wait to see your findings about your new phone and which will you get cuz my plan is following you. Anyway thx again for all your effort in here.
