When was the last time a phone was this high? It will probably be like 575 after taxes... after watching all of the videos.. it doesn't seem worth the price of a computer. This is like crime. I always buy my phones out right because I don't like to wait for contract renewals but another 75? I bet if they added more internal memory and a better video camera and screen it would be like 800 huh? Lol maybe I need to back off on being a phone fanatic lol

The Nexus One was $529.. so not much has changed with pricing when it comes to HTC smartphones.

That was still Google branded but the majority of HTC US phones are like 500. I dunno.. I ain't flipping out but if the price is gonna continue to go up, they can be more solid with their product functionality

Amazon lists the Atrix for $599, and the Droid X for $559. I agree it's way too much. Just saying...

Non-contract is sim free?
Tmobile non contract is meaning buying out right.. no half price off

For whatever reason I had $499 on my mind...
$549 plus tax in LA @9.75% equals $602 and some change...
At this price point, I'm reconsidering purchasing this phone now as I'm pretty happy with the MyTouch 4G running Virtuous Fusion 1.1.2.
There's always Craigslist.

That's presently irrelevant in the US, because it hasn't been released in the US. I bet when it is released here, it's under $600.
I paid $650 for my GS2 with tax.
My Incredible was 550 six months after release. This doesn't seem outrageous.
Dunno why you're complaining, you guys have it cheap. In europe the average new phone, no contract costs $700-$800 usd. Currently the HTC sensation costs ~430pounds ($700usd) in the uk. The galaxy s ii also costs ~430pounds in europe and $800 aud in australia. The atrix is even more expensive, costing 500pounds ($850usd).

Well I'm thinking y'all probably get paid more over in the uk or something. Where is the logic of the phones being like 100 to 200 dollars more? That's crazy and yeah we complain if HTC isn't giving it their all and not producing a better than good product for almost 600 dollars.

I'd pay that kind of money for the phone if:
1) It comes with almost no flaws/bugs
2) Its a Pentaband GSM/HSDPA Phone
2) I have full control over it (rooting)
3) I get at least 5 years of guranteed timely updates
Last I bought a Asus laptop for this much

True, but what the warranty covers wouldn't apply to me anyways, so it didn't matter.
Guess phones are going up now. When I bought my hd2 full price last year from tmo us it was like $450
R.I.P hd2 hello Evo 3d

Isn't the evo 3d cheaper off contract than the sensation? That's kinda sad. Makes me wish I was on sprint

Yeah, it's like $500. Confusing...
I just got 2 small questions. Couldn't find any topics about it in the forum.
I cracked my screen of my sensation. The LCD is fine but the digitizer is totally broke.
The local telephone repairman asked 180 euro's for it. He said he won't be able to just replace the digitizer but that he had to replace the lcd too. I found that a bit strange since I can buy a single digitizer for 60 euros online. I'm quite handy with stuff so I could do it myself.
Today I called HTC in the Netherlands to ask what they would ask for it. They said they couldn't give me a price for the repair.
Do any of you know how much it will cost, or at least give me a close indication? Preferably a dutch person because prices may be different in other countries.
And what do you suggest I choose?
Thanks in advance guys!

Did it crack by it self? Or due to fall? If it was not your mistake, why not ask for warranty?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
It fell when I was taking it out of my pocket when biking to school. So I don't think warranty will help here
Why not just say you dropped it in your house? kitchen floor maybe?
In the UK you could claim accidental damage from household insurance and you'd just have to pay your excess, typically £50
Not that I am advocating such action (telling lies) but it has worked for me in the past ;P
Doesn't work that easily here. You got an idea about the price HTC would ask for replacing the digitizer?

True haha. I know about that kind of stuff. I just need an indication how much it will cost me at the HTC repair.
Yep. Believe the pre 3 is a good choice. For a straight swap mainly for the keyboard. What you think?

Straight swap is not a good idea! Pre 3 seems to sell for about £100 on ebay whereas the desire s seems to sell for about double that.
Secondly, webOS is dead! While I admit that it's a beautiful OS and it's becoming open source, there is still a lot of work needed to be done. However, if you are content on getting the pre3, a straight swap just wouldn't cut it for me. I would need cash with the pre3 because you would be losing quite a bit of money
I bought the desire s for around almost 300 quid a year ago. I couldn't find a pre 3 for about 100 on ebay though

Depreciation! Anyway if you look at the completed listings you'll see the price tends to be around £100-£130
Obviously, it is used. Full set with receipt will be given. Please suggest I should buy or not. Thanks in advance.

So its $500 for a used 6 weeks old HTC one x? Its an alright price. Its worth 700 - 1000 depending on the country. If there are no big scratches or problem than buy it. Makes sure you check everything before you buy it.
