QHD has NOTHING to do with colors that POP. By the way, I am more than willing to take a picture of my Sensation and G2X next to each other. Sensation display blows it away in almost every aspect. Only aspect I like more about the G2X is it's blacks look better.
They say the HTC Sensation has 2 different companies creating screens for them so maybe the one you have isn't from Sharp which is said to be the better one,the thread about the two different screen manufacturers may have some answers for you

You again??? The great android developer who posted that thread the other day that was barely in english about comparing the sensation to the G2x. Didnt you say something very similar to this thread in that thread Mr. Developer? It seems like you are the one trolling because this is the 2nd thread you have created where you say the g2x is superior. So sell your sensation, keep the g2x and stop *****ing to us about it. and BTW, I do happen to own both the G2X and the Sensation. But seriously dude, this is the second thread you have created that I know of where you say something very similar comparing the sensation to the g2x. I love both devices but I do lean more to the sensation side.

The sensation has a qHD screen because its has 960x540 pixels crammed in the screen. Similarly the galaxy s2 and g2x and similar devices have a wvga screen which is 800x480 pixels. Its not a representation of screen quality but more of how clear the text appears. The galaxy s2 has a far superior screen because it has a super amoled plus screen even though its not qHD. The sensation has a s-lcd screen (i think) so the colours are not as rich but theyre still good. I dont know what the g2x's screen looks like so i cant comment on that however i think maybe you should do some research before posting

So you care more about brightness than anything else on a display? If so then stick with the G2X but other than being bright, it's really not that good of a display. Engadget said it's like a mediocre LCD and that LG skimped on this IPS panel.

That says a lot to the Sensation display if the G2X display is supposed to be brighter but the Sensation still performs better in direct sunlight. Want to see a video or pictures? I am on a video roll today!!!
You don't even know the difference between screen resolution and screen brightness but still you open a thread comparing screens? XDA forums are not Google search! If you search and can't find what you wan't then post. Those are the freaking rules! Someone must do something about Sensation's forums!

You're an idiot. The brightness of the screen has zero to do with the *type* of screen. qHD refers to resolution, not a technology. Also, the Sensation's display is MUCH nicer than the one on the G2x. Are you sure you didn't forget to pull the plastic off of the screen?
Oh and the G2x has an H-IPS LCD, *NOT* a NOVA panel.
OP is complaining about something he doesnt understand.

His English, grammar and sentence structure (or lack thereof) is not even on par with that of my friend's 10 year old nephew.

Hey guy im confused between two phones Sgs2 n Sensation
Sgs has some problems like Yellow tint , pink spot and some other issues plz can u guys help me in selecting the phone ? does sensation also have these kind of problems ??
Ummm ur asking in the sensation forum..... so opinions will be heavily biased . Optimus 2x user here. But I think galaxy s 2 is a better option. Sure the build quality isn't amazing, but the hardware will blow ur mind. Also, dev support is much better than what the first galaxy had, as cyanogenmod and aosp is making its way to it really fast whilst sensation is still bootloader locked. But I really like the build quality of HTC. I wish Samsung improved the shell of the galaxy series

SGSII hands down.
As for the built quality, I think a lot of people forget that there is a reason behind why a phone is built with light materials....to keep the phone light as possible. The rear cover on the SGSII may look thin and cheap, but you know that it can flex from end-to-end without breaking right? There is a reason...
I've dropped my SGS4G so many times and it endured...it's far from cheap.
The bigger and heavier it is the harder it'll fall...

I have em both, and must say.... The battery life is much better on sgsII. The camera(with or without high quality fix) is way better, no lag (except wake up 1sec) on sgsII, easy root sgsII. Build quality is almost same, if you think about the weight. And most of all screen on the sgsII is way better in all aspects. And in direct sunlight it rocks in comperment to sensation, witch is almost impossible to see.
For the sensation, the sense 3.0 is GREEEEEAAAAT... Lockscreen sweet, dlna is better. Its better in hand. Software is better overall.

Same thing I was wondering. The SGS II comes out in Canada next Thursday and I'm still going to be within my 14 Day return period. Its been like 3 days and I already got that annoying "dust under the screen" issue. The phone is great, camera takes crisp pics and all and Sense 3.0 is beautiful no doubt, but there are things that I'm starting to question.

Go for SGS2 though I am using Sensation.
samsung captivate display just blew me away and that phone is older then our mt4g's. Yea the mt4g owns the captivate in other areas but side 2 side while i was outside letting my kids play i couldnt read or see a damn thing on my mt4g compared to the captivates superior amoled display. Its just ridiculous and kinda embarrasing actually. I think my choice for the samsung hercules or galaxy s 2 if i go to att b4 merger happens just got easier. I love htc for there superior quality feel and looks of the phone but display while your outside plays a huge factor i think for most anyone considering a smartphone these days. If htc had amoled display i think i would be in heaven lol

You must have the "bad" display. I'd put my "good" MT4G display up against just about anything.
actually i got a good display too and i just realized my brightness was set all the way down haha, but im still sold on amoled vs super lcd that the mt4g has. Even with brightness all the way up, side by side the amoled pwns the mt4g display wether its sunny or dark!

I had a friend with a nexus S tell me that my screen was sharper and clearer than his. Didnt make much sense to me seeing as I came from the Vibrant running the latest voodoo kernel. Not saying the MT4G screen isnt great but super amoled is the one of the best screens that I have ever seen.

I cant say i have anything against the hardware of the SG family, but since developement for those phones is kind of, well, shotty, i would NEVER buy a samsung android phone. i mean just look at the sick amount of roms we have to choose from here, then go to some of the SG phones' dev. forums. its a big difference.

It was FAST! I was consistently pulling 8mb down where the mt4g is struggling to get 3. And the gps was flawless, lol.
Other than that it's identical except for the ffc and the faster connection. No flash though, which I thought was a little odd, and no internal storage, just the 16gb sdcard.

Um what? I just got 4.8 while on 3G. I'll test 4G sometime this week when I have it.
I don't like the high white point of S-AMOLED. Everything looks very blue. Plus I feel restricted to use only dark or predominately black backgrounds in order to conserve battery, and web browsing eats battery at a prodigious rate. All that white...
I did enjoy my Vibrant, which I had before my MT4G, mainly because it was a 4" screen, which is my sweet spot, and the SGS's wonderful Wolfson DAC. Sound quality was phenomenal on that phone.
It almost makes me want to pick up a Galaxy S 4G, but the lack of CyanogenMod/AOSP ROMs really does keep me on my Glacier.
Samsung is mopping up their mess they made with the vibrant(at least with developers) when they offered cyanogenmod and team members those free galaxy s 2 phones it was like hey were sorry please hack our phones and put custom roms on it. Thats a big step forward for a company like samsung to take and win over a community, especially with their superior displays and somewhat easier methods of unlocking their phones.

They are big. I personally think its much higher quality than the Sensation.. (Just because its aluminum doesnt make it a better build quality) infact i think that about Samsung compared to HTC anyways.. Sammy makes strong light devices.
Even with a lower resolution the Amoled + screens are far superior to the LCD screen HTC uses and the Note has an HD version of the AMOLED + Makes me really want one.

Yeah, it's very good. It just simply, works. No waiting for this or that to come out for it or waiting for some dev to fix something that apple should have fixed long before releasing only to have that one dev go buy a completely different device and forget about you.
Android has better hardware but piss poor work ethic from the manufacturers.
Apple has much nicer looking products with lesser hardware, but they make damn sure that your never notice the lesser hardware. This iPad 2 is fast! I am typing this on the on screen keyboard. Something that was a pain in the butt on my dads toshiba thrive.
Android needs to finish what they start. I got tired of waiting for others to make my android devices what they were advertised to be. I got tired of having to devote most of my time learning how to do something on a forum that was supposed to work straight out of the box.
I love my sensation, but not all the drama that I have gone through to get it to where it is today. A lot of buttkissing devs and being *****ed at for eta asking has pushed me closer to apple. If it weren't for tmobile having me by the balls, I'd have an iPhone. People will say to go get what you want, but that is so dillusional. We wind up stuck with what we have and then have to deal with the issues. I was disgusted to see the sensations early problems needing fixing and then watch Htc come out with four clones of the sensation each new month rather than fix and finish what they started. Finish what you start!

Samoled is amazing, better than Sensation screen but also takes up that much more power. Sensation screen is also great not take away from that. 5.3" is a bit much dont you think? I had the vibrant it felt bigger than our Sensation with its 4.0" . Also I didn't really appreciate the plastic but it was/is really sturdy. I don't anyone had their phone break. I also have to say if the Note's glass is anything like the Vibrant's then you will be happy. That screen is almost impossible to scratch. You could literally take a key to it without a screen protector. Wish our sensation glass was like that. And lastly, touchwiz isn't bad at all. Give it a chance, with all the modded twiz launchers and alternatives its a fun device. Also theirs a sense look alike launcher I used for a couple days on my vibrant. So all in all it comes down to preference. But I have to say one thing, Samsung sucks at updating android versions. We got froyo 2 months after gb came out. And its not about to change either.

Agreed.
One thing I do notice however .... the phone seems to be the benchmark the other manufacturers shoot for or want to beat.
Then there's the guys who like to say they have a better option then the Sensation.
It would seem this phone set a new standard.
This is a phone... That is a phone... They do pretty much the same thing. Why make so much of an effort for a bigger better screen with a juvenile u.i. Atleast wait for something like a quad core and impressive games/apps exclusive for the quad. I swear i dont see anything that the sensation does which the desire hd couldnt. IMHO, these frequent minor updates dont make much sense and also ruin the fun after updating to a much more capable phone which is just better at everything.

Hey man.. Sometimes its better to have 160x60 pixels less.

Is it just me or is the sensation very similar to the htc one s minus the adreno 225 where as the sensation has adreno 220?
The CPU has been improved immensely. So has the camera. The screen is also super amoled but pentile matrix :/ so that can be argued I guess.

The screen of the HTC One s is better than the screen of the HTC Sensation.
I prefer having removable batteries, and removable SD storage.
In day to day usage, the Sensation offers me exactly what I need as it is already quite powerful. I don't game either.
Sure the One S is a better phone, but not really worth the upgrade IMO. I'll keep waiting, maybe might get the next Google Flagship phone at the earliest. (And that is a big might.)

they are definately similar but the one s would be better of course i like to think of it as an upgrade to the sensation, 4g, xe, amaze 4g, and rezound which if you look at it they are all very similar in design or specs it is like part 6 of the sensation saga the design is very similar on the one s and sensation just more polished i think so if you combine the amaze+sensation+rezound+new cpu+different screen (not saying better since i like lcd compared to amoled screen)= one s

That's exactly my opinion.
Plus - it has enough power for games.
Plus 64GB sdcard capabilities - and that might not be the maximum - no windy cloud storage and roaming plan for data access necessary.
No One really beats the Sensation
to me, its a load of crap!
same pixel density just super amoled for more vibrant colours
upd the ram by 200mb
camera isnt better, the camera app is, which doesnt mean it cant be ported
processor is better but, tbh, sensation is still a beast at gaming and will be until the next flagship for google comes out
If I had the money I'd upgrade..
To me it is just a perfected sensation - more ram, more unified body, faster, better screen, better camera...
Not sure why they chose to have no SD or removable battery, but guessing there are advantages otherwise HTC wouldn't have done it.

I think it has a new image processing chip too, not just the new software - so a port wouldn't give the sendation the same camera quality as the one s.

No but the Sense 4 camera app does run 99% effective on the Sensation. It's even graphically accelerated so menus and whatnot are easy to use while in the camera instead of sluggish like Sense 3.6
I just picked up the one s today and I had the sensation. The one s is a beast the camera is amazing. And honestly the pentile screen doesn't bother me I can't even tell unless my face is like an inch away from the screen bit who uses their phone like that. And its so Much faster the devs here have done a great job with the sense 4 port but is not even close to the speed of the one s. It really is a night and day difference. And as far as storage I just use google play music and it stores all my songs without taking up space. I did love the development for the sensation but this one s is a beast.it really feels like a premium phone with the aluminum body

HTC did it for quality control. That's why Apple does it. Thats why any of them do it. Makes it easier to troubleshoot an issue if you can rule out another manufacturers SD card or after market battery causing problems.
A jacked SD card or crappy after market battery leads to more warranty repairs for them.
Hopefully there will be bigger storage and more external battery cases for new Android devices if the trend continues, which I think is an absolute certainty.
Good for them, sucks for most of us who want the option.

I went to T-moble today to upgrade from my sensation to the one s, but NOPE. The pentil display was way to obvious for me. I love my display in the sensation. I could clearly see the pixles/blocks without trying. Now I have perfect 20/20 vision. It was just too obvious for me.
Now I knew about and was looking for it. IF I did nto know I might have missed it in the showroom floor, but after playing with it at home for some time it would have become very obvious. Once you see the pixles they dont go away. This was a major turn off for me.
The lack of SD no big deal at all for me. But the non removeable battery AND pentile display, I'll wait for a T-moble version of the One X or the next HTC product.
The offered me a free Samsung Glaxacy 2 or something like that but I love HTC and sense.

The HTC one x, may not be the fastest phone, or have the best battery. But after I browse the web with it, its hard to go from superlcd2 to any other display
Its like a joy to browse the net, whereas on my galaxy s3 (its faster) but its meh
Anyone feel the same?

I have to agree I've was testing the Galaxy Note 2 last few days and whilst the display on that is an improvement over the SGS3 it was still Meh compared to the HOX.
Sure AMOLED has better contrast and blacks but SLCD2 is just sexy. Crisp text and sharp. Whites are better, colours are less over saturated, brighter, and my god SLCD3 is supposed to be even better!

I really can't tell the difference. I used my friends gs3 yesterday and it looked perfectly fine and usable to me.
I know we get better viewing angles but during normal browsing i'm fine with either.
I completely agree. My girlfriend has an S3 and the blue tint is incredibly noticeable to me. The One X has the best screen of any device I've ever owned, by far.
I'm not thrilled with HTC or at&t nowadays.
I'm considering switching to Sprint within the next week.
But all the mass marketing doesn't warm me to the SG3 either.
Sorry but the bawdy home button and ugly camera and sensor holes are butt ugly.
Lots of cheap feeling plastic, roundy corners, and Touchwiz - all with a bluish tint display that's horrible in sunlight?
No thanks.
SG3 has never been on my shopping list, and won't be.

Not to mention the fact that it gets hot when idling... Maybe it would be nice in the cold winter months ahead
After owning an iPhone for 4 years straight, I vowed to never purchase a phone with a physical home button again, and I will stick to it! Samsung dropped the ball with build quality on the SIII, anyone who argues in favor of it over a HOX simply hasn't had enough time with both devices.
