Have anyone noticed no matter what new phone tmobile gets there always something they do as a company to stop if from being a top phone. Example Damn near no marketing for any of there phone except the mytouch wtf. Samsung vibrant no flash or front facing camera. G2x plagued by so much problems . Sensation under powered beast with so much more than what they give us out the box. Compared to at&t where there phones are maxed out with there power and not being cheap with phone features, flash should be a must for a high end smart phone along with build quality. Verizon market the hell out all there phone and it works ,hell i know more about there new phones than tmobile. Im glad at&t bought this struggling ass company cause i was on the verge of switching carriers.

What exactly did T-Mobile do to the phone that makes it less of a phone than the EU version?
They order the phones and somehow they manage to get the worst phones example. The vibrant was the worst galaxy s phone out of all the carriers period. All there htc phones are mid grade at best, sensation high end barely. Just seem like everyone else get more selections and better stuff.

How was the vibrant the worst galaxy s? Its identical to the att version in all the internals.
The sensation is identical to the eu version minus a few things no one needs that they removed. They even kept "free" tethering which is nice.
The g2x is comparable to dual cores in other carriers and has vanilla android and the g2 is much better than the droid if we are talking phones with keyboards.
I am sorry but you are talking out of your ass. The only thing the sensation lacks is s off and that's htc fault

while i dont agree with alot of what you said, tmobile does has THE worst marketing stategy(not even sure if its a strategy). They pretty much have no advertisment when the NBA season is over(i.e.Tmobile Halftime Show, etc.) I love tmobile for the great price, customer service and they really do have some good phones. But marketing is non-existent and they usually try to push low-end to mid-range devices. Like ive read that they arnt getting the SGS2? if thats true, shame on tmobile.

Your an idiot.
Other than the Atrix and Evo3D NONE of those phone compare to the Sensation. Why don't you return you phone and go troll somewhere else and quit trying to stir up crap in the forum.
Mod's, PLEASE close this useless crap thread.
One more thing, T-Mobile pioneered Android. They had 5 Android phone before a single other US carrier carried them. Again, an idiot.
haha, did you see the thread I posted not too long ago?

T-Mobile isn't getting the SGSII, they're getting a better device - the Hercules.
As has been pointed out, a lot of the phones on T-Mobile are quite capable devices and T-Mo was the pioneer of our beloved Android.
T-Mobile leaves something to be desired in terms of device commercials but I've seen commercials for the Sensation AND the G2x (before it was pulled) far more than any other device besides the Droid Charge.
The G2x is an amazing phone - LG just needs to fix a few issues that may be software or may be hardware. It still beats the pants off the crappy ass Atrix.
It doesn't compete with Exynos, no, but no American carrier has a Samsung Exynos device at the moment and rumors point that in America we may get Tegra 2 instead of Exynos so its a moot point.
I have a G2x and a Sensation. The G2x spanks the Sensation on performance but there is significant device lag that is random, sometimes including freezing, which is unacceptable and the reboot issue is a big problem. When it works though, the G2x is the phone to beat. Hell mine overclocks to 1.55GHz with a 200mV undervolt and barely gets warm. In Mandro (one of the only dual-core speed tests), it actually beats the Exynos by a good 15%. The Exynos overclocks as well, however, and lets not forget that the Sensation, having a Qualcomm chip, will most likely overclock at least 50% if not higher as well.
Quit trolling. Go get a phone with a provider that locks down everything, charges more, has terrible coverage, and consistently breaks promises. I'm just fine with T-Mobile and I am sure many others are as well otherwise they'd be out of business.
Also, at&t made a BID for T-Mo. The merger is nowhere near actual approval and hopefully it can be delayed long enough for it to get denied based on wireless competition and at&t will have to suck it up for once and actually build THEIR OWN network rather than piggyback off everyone else's!!!
EDIT: And on your comment about the Epic versus the Vibrant. Note the internal storage difference between the two and then realize that Sprint made a huge trade off with their version just to have a hardware keyboard.
From customer services reps i was told there bought and thing won't change until its finalized and my contact is over and like u said too many bugs in all there phones not just one all there phones .I'm hating i sold my vibrant running bionix 1.3 cuause it runs way better than this funky as I'm staring to doubt duel core sensation smh.

Early launch bugs? Price you pay for having the latest and greatest. Everyone that knows technology knows that when it comes to wireless, you don't purchase the latest and greatest and expect to have no issues. Go cry somewhere else.

I agree with most of this ,but the g2x sucks ,I had one for a couple days and I git rid of it ,I didn't think the camera was worth a crap and it just had too many issues ,ill take my sensation that works than a device that gets good quadrant scores ,which mean absolutely nothing , sense may be a little slower but its wayyyyyy better than vanilla android IMO,but good post though
Latest and greatest my ass i had a g1 that ran for years i had a iphone that lasted for years i had ten faulty vibrants 2 g2s. T-Mobile was great at first now its evident there cutting corners. I can deal with a washed screen ,dead pixels, hell even a cracjed screen but if it reboots on its on and i lose my alarm clock setting that blows or if i try and make a call and it freeze sometimes and i have to pull battery and roboot . Missed calls when my phone didn't even ring . Everyone know in Chicago T-Mobile ain't nothing they fell off period.

Now I know your just a trolling idiot. T-Mobile is NOT bought. AT&T has made an offer. Do you read the news or do you just write random BS that you pull out of your a**? AT&T CANNOT buy T-Mobile UNTIL DOJ and FCC approve it (estimated to happen March 2012 time frame). THEN it will take another 3 months to close the deal. So quit complaining that your stuck with T-Mobile, get off your Mommy's plan and get your own contract with whomever you want. Then, no more Sensation.
Oh, why don't you just take it back and get a Vibrant again? You have 14 days.

Hi, I currently have a rooted mytouch 4g running android 2.3 that I bought used off of craigslist. I got an offer to trade my mytouch 4g plus cash for a nexus s brand new. Now I don't necessarily love Samsung but the deal seems like it could be beneficial to me. Some background:
I have a mytouch with a 'bad screen'
I have absolutely none of the original packaging or accessories.
The phone is a bit scuffed up and it is purple.
Now I was hoping you guys could give me your opinion, if you were in my shoes, would you trade or keep the phone?

too many bad things about the nexus s, and far too many fones that will be released in the next few months that will outdate "kill" the nexus S while the mt4g even with a bad screen STANDS STRONG, i also have a bad screen and this is far better processor, plus you can contact htc through tmoble to possibly exchange now for the scuffs u can spend 11bucks at ur local mall and get watever color gel case u want and.u now have ur fave color mt4g in ur hands
just my opinion do sum reading thru here there are lots of negatives to the nexus s, our (mt4g) gingerbread runs wayyy better

I honestly do not see why not... If I was in your shoes I would do it, if you don't you will probably be asking yourself what if? Plus you should factor in the following which is are you able to fully utilize hspa+ where you are.... Ultimately it also comes down to whether you have patience for Nexus S development to pick up and moreover if the mytouch better suits what you need... The Nexus S in my honest opinion is currently a better offering hardware wise and potentially (support google/dev scene) software wise with the largest omission being hspa+...
Apparently very debatable

I got the NS for 1 week and I went back to the MT4G. Maybe you like the NS, so try it and if not you can trade it again. I had a thread about my experience with the NS and compared it a bit to the MT4G.

I'm returning my Nexus S tomorrow. Picked up the my touch yesterday. So far I think this version of Sense is terrible. That, however can be fixed. Really there are a number off things I don't like about the my touch yet I will still return the Nexus. GPS, accelerometer, and compass all function much better on the my touch. Huge difference. If I'm going to spend 500 bucks on a phone I expect the features that make it more than just a phone to work well. Updates from Google are important but I would rather have well functioning hardware. If the my touch never receives another ota it's still a pretty good phone. The Nexus will probably never have a stable compass or gps. That's my take at least. There were some other hardware issues such as phantom button presses that put me over the edge with the Nexus, but that may have been cured with an exchange.

I went from the G1, which I loved, to the Vibrant, which I loved to hate. The developers did the best they could but the phone was still sitting with no official froyo six months after release, so I got fed up and sold it.
I got a Nexus S after the hype, went through two replacements before I got one that functioned properly. In the end, I still couldn't come to terms with the fact I was essentially buying another Samsung phone. I did some comparison shopping. Turned my S back for a refund and got a MT4G.
I did have to exchange the MT4G one time to get one with a good display, so I wasn't too happy at first, but now I'm much happier than I was with the Nexus S. It's got a more solid build, the camera is better, the buttons are responsive (big problem with the Nexus), the GPS locks quickly, I trust an HTC device 100x more than a Samsung device, and considering that we are getting Cyan 7 nightlies that are already fairly stable, I know I've made the right choice.

Thats what I would do... Make a post, selling a Nexus S you haven't traded for yet, and see how many hits you get... if you get some legit hits.. I would trade the MT4G for the NS and sell the NS, then buy a MT4G or wait for some of these next-gen phones to come out. I LOVE the MT4G....it is amazing...think the NS fails in comparision...and anyone that would pick a NS over the MT4G is prolly just doing so because they are google fanboys, or they don't want to admit to themselves they paid 500 dollars for a phone that is basically the iphone with bugs....I honestly don't think anyone looking at the matchup objectively would pick the NS over the MT4G. Good Luck with your decision making, hope it works out.
You really want to get some unbiased answers post this same question in the Nexus S forms... Btw, I agree with the poster above if your heart is set on a mytouch 4g turn around and sell the Nexus S you acquire and obtain a mytouch 4g with the better built screen and possibly a better exterior color, like black

LOL now now lets not be that harsh, NS can still beat down the iPanzy 4 with its eye closed. But NS does not compare against MT4G as we know TMo Project: Emerald was successful IMO they created a monster muahaha and even its brother DHD can't beat MT4G in speed yet they share similar spec. NS could have been good but its crippled by Samsung due to their inferior management and other marketing factors.
If I am not mistaken doesn't the hummingbird processor take advantage of gingerbread in ways any generation of the snapdragon processor cannot? Or was this a myth?

Originally I wanted the nexus s but my parents got me the mytouch.
To me 2.3 was a huge bonus for the nexus s but now the mytouch has 2.3 so its all good. The next advantage was the better screen for the nexus but now that super amoled two displays are coming out the nexus screen will be obsolete soon enough.although if I was you I would just wait for the phones announced at ces to come out.

Yeah, you're pretty much going to get biased opinons, but I think the myTouch has a better chance of anything at this point. We got the CM7 nightys coming along nicely, and we even have a cleaned up version of the stock rom which runs like fire (Iced Glacier) and overall it supports TMobile's 4G network.
MyTouch all the way. You really don't need the NFC for another couple of years cause they're just starting to put some use to it.
MyTouch all the way, and plus read some of the stuff about the Nexus, it's having lagging issues, random reboots and such. And plus it's a Samsung device, that doesn't mean it won't get the next version of Android quick, but the fact that it's just a samsung device and that it feels like ****. The Mytouch (at least mine) feels solid.
ATM its just a myth as Hummingbird S5PC110 does not stand a chance with Snapdragon MSM8255 was only factor with 1st gen Snapdragon. But however at the same time credit must be given to SGX 540 as its slightly better than Adreno 205. Then again this is where Samsung can only excel huh in graphic and SAMOLED display. Also don't let the whole NS using ext4 BS get to you as we are still not in dualcore world fully but ext4 does have its benefits. Overall MT4G beats NS with its face down in the gutter where Samsung belongs. This device is not any type of flagship but it does have potentials as lineup device, only thing I see holding it back is Samsung lol and then again they tend to do that.
I've had both but ultimately chose the MyTouch because having 4g speeds made a huge difference in the entire experience. On the NS I was always having to run wifi. Also the NS just never felt complete. Running CM7 makes the MT4g a complete phone.

Dont, Nexus S isnt really a that good of phone plus u have gingerbread etc and Nexus S is samsung made. Cheap quality. MT4g kicks its ass in CPU and Some GPU stuff ( shader performance and more) so i say keep it
If you have 2.3 on your mt4g there is no point. That's the only thing the nexus s has over mt4g out of the box. Plus the mt4g has 4g and HTC is better than Samsung by a long shot...

If T-Mobile is good around your area, go Sensation. If not, go Thunderbolt. Like someone else said, the only pro over the Sensation the Thunderbolt has is Verizon's reliable network and LTE.
Sent from my ADR6400L
No such thing as future proof...Just saying.
It's probably going to be down to what network you want more than anything. I don't have a choice. I'm on VZW no matter what really.
I thought the sensation was europe only. Its going ton be sold in US?
Well in my area the choice comes down to network. Maybe the specs on the sensation are better, but the reliable 3g and LTE on Verizon would make it a no trainer. However if I was in a better T-Mobile area and I wanted to wait then maybe the sensation.

Where I live, T-mobile is the only mobile provider that still runs only on Edge... And the cell reception once you leave the city I'm in is spotty just about everywhere... Although the Sensation will be a smoking device... There's a reason why all the truck drivers in these parts don't have T-mobile phones... Keep that in mind...
Sent from my Thunderbolt using Tapatalk
Here's my take...
I needed a phone now... Thunderbolt was the best Verizon had at the time...
When my upgrade is ready there will be a device better than both, and possibly more support in Android for the "newer" technology.
If I traveled away from Hawaii I would more than likely never pick up T-Mobile. Verizon gives the best overall coverage, and honestly the price isn't as drastic people make it out to be. The difference for me is $10 (Verizon gives me nearly 15% more on my discount).
So I will take what fits your wants when you need to get a new device. For me it was the thunderbolt, but chances are in a few months all the current Android devices would be considered "outdated" even though they really are not.
1. There will always be something that comes out that is BETTER. You can only get what you can when you can get it. You can't always wait for the next best thing b/c you won't ever get a phone with that mentality.
2. HTC Sensation has one of the best specs right now.
3. HTC probably sucks at locking the bootloader so HOPEFULLY you can root it.
4. Dual-core is a great concept and will help with battery life, but Android isn't optimized to take advantage of dual-core just yet so its not that big of a deal [yet].
5. Anecdote: I once chose a phone over a network. Never again. Plus things will get ported over anyways.
Last generation phones are sometime better, as well. I for one am a flash junkie, and looking at all of the mods roms and themes for older devices like the EVO I feel a bit jealous. However , by the time the Sensation is released, the Thunderbolt will have a ton of mods and roms for it. By the time the development gains momentum for the Sensation, there will be another better and newer phone coming out. You have to make the choice which you like better. All in all, I wanted an EVO with the guts of a MT4G and the network that only Verizon offers here in the US... the Thunderbolt is the phone I've been looking for

The sg2 official US release will probably come later than the sensation. Every carrier will pretty much bastardize the sg2 from the original one in the UK since. The carriers will take things out to make sure it doesn't beat their flagship phone. Only one that reach the FCC was at&t.

i'm going through the same thing. i picked up my g2x the day it was available for sale from the store. i normally never buy something on release day but since i had lost my nexus one for which i had for 1.5 years at work and no one returned it, i needed a phone.
tuesday is going to make my 14th remorse day. i have already decided that i am going to return the phone and wait for the sensation. it's just that when i look of pictures of the sensation it just looks like a sexy phone. i know the bootloader will be locked, i know that it may have battery issues because it runs sense (never had a sense phone before, always had stock android), i guess i just want to try something different from before but still familiar. maybe i am just partial to htc since my first android phone the original mytouch was an htc.
i figure since i keep thinking about the sensation i might as well wait for it. i thought once i got the g2x the thoughts about the sensation would subside, but it has not. the lg g2x is a nice phone for which i will give it that minus the few little quirks i noticed. i have some back light bleeding at the top corners. i'm bothered by the fact of wasn't the lg optimus 2x out before the g2x got released in the US, so all these backlight bleeding issues should be very minimal, it should be expected for there to be some backlight bleed with an lcd display. the other small quirk i noticed is sometimes when you press the power button to wake up the phone you see a quick glimpse of the screen you had up prior before the lockscreen appears. when i had my nexus one that never happened. i don't know if that is due to the some of the stuff t-mobile added to the phone or any small customizations lg may have put in the sourcecode.
so i am going to return my phone either tomorrow or tuesday and use a feature phone until the sensation comes out. may even come back to the g2x if the sensation is not all it is cracked up to be, i guess i just have to compare the two in person to make an informed decision.
i know i probably could hold onto the g2x and then sell it when the sensation comes out, but i signed up for that unlimited everything plan to get the g2x at a discount didn't feel like paying the 499.99 + tax, so i might as well go back to my even more plus plan for the time being.
the way things are going the sensation should be released in june (rumor is june 8th), since now there is talk about the htc doubleshot phone which is supposed to be a mytouch slide 4g being released in july. i know you can't release the mytouch slide 4g before the sensation when the buzz about the sensation/pyramid has been going on since the beginning of the year.
g2x is that lg? I don;t really sure with lg atm, but htc need making improvement with design, I felt most htc design look the same.

i think that's a pretty good indication
@touness:
The Sensation is a T-Mobile exclusive, whereas the SGS2 will most likely be released on all 4 major carriers. As such, Samsung has to build four different versions of the phone for each carrier. Naturally, four different models (SGS2)will take longer to release than one model (HTC Sensation).
One other thing that points toward an imminent release of the Sensation is that T-Mobile USA has already set up a HTC Sensation section on their forum. It's been active for a couple of weeks. Based on T-Mobile's past actions, this is a sign that the phone is just a few weeks away from release.
While my Nexus One keeps on going, I'm going to wait at least until autumn before I decide. Both phones might have better prices by then. I'm leaning towards the htc, I really like the 'thin soap-bar' design of the Nexus One, the 'flat slab' of the S II doesn't appeals to me. Also, it as slightly bigger battery, I'm always paranoid of running out of batteries.
But Samsungs AMOLED screen is indeed gorgeous. And the S II has already been rooted.
I replaced my G2 with a G2X and am getting a Sensation when it launches. It's pretty clear LG doesn't no crap about s/w. The O2X was buggy when released and the G2X is worse. Unless a miracle occurs I can't see how LG is going to right all the wrongs they've committed with the Gingerbread release that's coming. I spend more time roaming than I do on my home network so modding is out because it has always screwed up my ability to register on foreign networks. The theory of a "pure Google" phone is great for speed, simplicity, and customization. The G2 was truly close to being a "Google experience" phone while the G2X is just LG's ****ty software with the UI removed and a bunch of T-Mobile bloatware embedded in the OS. So, back to Sense (I had a HD2) it is.

Similar experience with the G2x having used a Nexus One for 16 months. It's hardly AOSP or vanilla FroYo on that phone. Quadgate was reason enough to return it, but poor battery life, shady backlight bleeding, and a general feeling of deception were all ammunition.
The Sensation sounds very much like a Nexus Two to me, and I like the sound of that. I've never used Sense on a phone, but I think 3.0 might be something I'd live with.
Still need to see it compared to the SGSII though.

i tried a sense 3 mod last night and boy, is it pretty (the mod ran like a dog so i had to uninstall it) the SGII is just over $800 in Australia, though, and if the Sensation comes out at the same price, i will have to get the Nexus S
I had a G2x and returned it today. I think I am going to wait for the Sensation. I just saw in one of the threads on the G2x board that the Sensation is scheduled to be released June 8th.

The version of the Sensation we'll get in North America with AWS frequencies probably won't work on 3G in Australia, and will be priced at $500USD. The version of the SGSII and Sensation you'll have to get might be available more reasonably through a Canadian carrier, though I don't have quick access to a currency calculator to see if that improves things much.
IM Getting This !!
Development is picking up in the G2X forum you might want to think twice. That locked bootloader in the sensation might be a dealbreaker for alot of people who changes roms alot. Ill play the backfield with my G2X and see if its cracked.

i have the g2x right now, and given the crashes, wifi problems and lcd bleeding i have experienced on several exchanged devices.... i am going to return it and wait for the sensation.
i am sure that the bootloader will be unlocked at some point, and even still... i would rather have a locked phone that works than a truly open one that doesn't.
So I was on the border of whether or not to buy the g2x, or wait for the sensation. The locked bootloader on the sensation sealed the deal and on april 20th, 2011, I was the proud owner of a shiny new G2x! A little background is in order... I've been using Htc's since g1. Fast forward through an mt3g, n1, hd2 (android) and an mt4g. Always happy until the washed out screen on the mt4g. But I'm not one to complain, so it was all good. I gave my wife the mt4g when I bought the g2x. Shes running evild's sensation rom. And I must say, IT HAS GIVIN THE MT4G A NEW LIFE! Ive actually gotten a little jealous... I've had random reboots when ocing, lag with certain roms,, and freezing with certain roms. But nothing a battery pull can't fix. My question is, when the sensation is available, should I sell the g2x and buy the sensation? What is everyones opinion and why...

I agree. Wait until the bootloader is actually unlocked and then buy it. Who knows, maybe by then we might have a stable build of cm7 and you wont want to switch

Do what you feel, I'm having none of the issues mentioned here.
Your phone, your choice.
My advice would be to wait about 30 days. By then the official gingerbread update will be out (hopefully) and with that, new kernel and baseband for the devs to develop new roms.

Ultimately yes ill do what I want. My wife told me to buy the sensation and keep the g2x... I can only use one device at a time lol I have no use for 2 devices... I think I'm just disappointed in the unreliabilty of my specific g2x. And its obviously a widespread issue. Needless to say, as fond as I am of the g2x, I'm seriously considering selling it and getting the sensation. Plus, I'm getting bored with the g2x and maybe even the whole constant flashing and modding in general. Spending hours modding framework and editing .pngs just seems to be getting too tedious I guess. On the flip side, the sensation is a solid respectable device with great hardware. Rooted or not. And I'm sure someone will have the unlock key dropped in their lap soon enough ;-). I'm just looking for an excuse to not sell this monster lol

I agree about the Sensation looking solid, but my G2x and many others where bought fairly cheap. I got mine for 119 from amazon. For that price I'll gamble. So far my gamble has paid back. Great device with barely any hiccups. Makes my Nexus S look bad.

I paid 200 after rebate... In release day. Cheap... Definitely, but the full price of the phone was cheap to begin with, so I guess the contact price is relevant. It will be interesting to see what the sensation goes for a month after release in craigslist...
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
That would be interesting to see what the price would be on craigslist. I've got so many phones to choose from it's really about preference. I've got 5 lines all have net and all have upgrades available. My kids and wife get my hand me downs. For me at the moment the G2X has no competition on T Mobile. The minor hiccups are software related for sure. So there going to be fixed or some great rom will make it perfect. Currently running stock with the bloat removed and it's snappy. No reboots, hardly no backlight issues, keyboard has no lag, so if I compare to my other phones which are Nexus S, Nexus One, Sidekick 4G, G2, and my dads Inspire. I'm definitely liking this phone. It would take the Sensation to really be sensational to make this phone go. My wife already has her hopes up that I'll fall for the Sensation, she loves the G2X. The phone is great, has some issues but I'm sure LG will fix them all. Guess if your phone is screwy, demand they replace and give you a new one. But I definitely waited to see what this phone was capable of before I pulled the trigger, I'll do the same with the Sensation.

Yea, I will be buying the sensation outright if I get it. The support for the g2x has been phenomenal. Which is my biggest reason for holding in to it. Tmobile has always been deutschebags about swapping my handset. Even though I buy atleast 2 phones a year from them. So I'm just at the point where I am tired of dealing with them and deal with my original purchase.

Where did you read that? Im pretty sure tmo is getting the sgs2. I keep saying people should hold off until they (tmo or lg) releases these supposed updates. IMO the g2x blows away ANY of the amoled screens i have seen. and just because it has an xtra .2 processing power doesnt mean its going to be better or faster.
Once the g2x updates are released (im hoping one will be a fix for the lg and the other will be the official GB release for the g2x). ME personally I wont be getting any htc phones until they make some decent cameras. Thats just me though. its funny my g2x is near perfect other than battery drain. And battery charging takes for freaken ever. My d2 charged full in 30 min go figure! BUT my womans g2x which she got a few months after mine has almost ALL the defects: screen bleed,reboots serious battery drain, and she gets the sleep of death contstantly.

you've had the G2X for months how is that even possible? lol.
any who, I'm selling the G2X some time in the next couple weeks, I'm in the same boat as the OP, except I don't have much issues besides a tiny screen bleed top corners and a reboot since I've had the device 4/24... I just love HTC Sense and HTC phones plus I have an upgrade available so selling the G2X and getting the Sensation will not be an issue. I say sell and purchase new phone. Sense is just so amazing compared to vanilla, and I'm pretty sure the G2X wont be getting a sense ROM.

There was a tmo roadmap leaked that didn't show the galaxy s 2 but mentioned the Hercules. Also there was another leak from an accessories manufacturer that showed the names for the sprint, at&t, and Verizon gs2 but didn't mention anything for TMobile. The Hercules should be pretty much a gs2 but with a bigger screen and maybe a qualcom processor instead of exynos and 42mb/s radio
Edit: I love my g2x and the support is getting from the greatest devs in the android community. Just wanted to put that out there

you might want to be careful, one of those two are EOL. My dad has it and it's approaching the end of life.
Honestly my next jump will be to the Nexus, who ever is carrying it. I'm not loyal to T-Mobile any longer.
amaze is sexy stock but that's all its gonna be as development hasn't exploded yet. better hardware though.
sensations got those roms with worse hardware and its already OLD
I go with sgs2 imo why don't you consider that

This
I just got the Sensation. Development for it is booming. I ultimately chose it over the Amaze because it's cheaper. But here are some other factors that will play a role:
1. Ram and memory. Amaze has 1GB, 16GB, respectively. 728mhz (same as mt4g) and
1GB memory on the Sensation is good enough for me.
2. Processor. Amaze has a newer and faster dual-core processor. I didn't care for it much. The Sensation is running graphic heavy games just as smoothly as the MT4G. So this wasn't a big factor.
3. Camera. I definitely wish the Sensation had a dedicated camera button. But it's not a deal breaker and actually looks sexier without one. But still convenient, nonetheless
4. HSPA. Theoretically, Amaze has 42mbps vs. 14mbps Sensation.
All these numbers I typed may be a little off.
The Sensation has a HQ Camera mod to capture pictures uncompressed. So that and video look amazing. Idk how the Amaze is. But with that mod, the Sensation is on par, if not a bit better.
The big factors for me was an upgraded camera over the MT4G and development. The Sensation actually looks sexier, imo. All the Amaze had me for was basically the camera buttons.
Hope this helps. At first I was badly needing to get the Amaze when it first came out. But as time passed, it's still expensive and development is nowhere near the Sensation's. I'm happy with it.
Fyi, there are people on craigslist wanting to trade their Amaze for a Sensation + cash.. Kinda makes you wonder.

I guess that's where there's an advantage to being an old dood like me. I tend to be more content with my phones, the older I get. Right now, other than a larger screen, I still think the mt4g is as good as the Sensation or Amaze. Also the Amaze has been slower in development. If I had to choose though, I would like the Sensation. But for now, my mt4g is plenty. I keep it on my 18mbps WiFi connection 97% of the time & it flies...

I'm wanting to say the Amaze, but i'm going to have to ask him again. He just got it on my recommendation, and something broke on the phone. so he had to replace and the CSR told him that the phone was nearing EOL, which in this market isn't a surprise.
But i'm sick of T-Mobile not having heavy hitters when it comes to power users.

Same. My contract ends in December, and my mom is also fed up with T-Mobile and their service. May leave to Verizon or AT&T, but definitely not Sprint! Or we may stay with T-Mobile and I will get the One S ...but so far she's not letting me spend the money..
My dad hates T-Mobile as well, we will prolly jump to verizon when we get the chance. Service is better but i highly recommend that you stay with htc. They build phones that feel like they will last. I suggest the One S if you have the money. Otherwise, i like the amaze but ultimetly, both will serve you fine for the next 2 years.
