yep, another happy Sensation user.
With a few minor changes (New ROM) and JuiceDefender, my battery now last at least 3 times as long.
So, yes, buy a Sensation

Gooo Forrr itttt! Happy Flashing!

which one have better camera sensation or sgs2 ?
which one have better natural colors sensation or iphone 4 ??

Lol. The iphone screen is tiny. Sgs has slightly better hardware but touchwiz is even ****tier than sense and Samsung phones just feel cheap. Sensation feels like an executive phone. 1 gb is more than enough for all the apps you could want. I have about 100 apps installed and have filled less than half of it.

which one is faster..1.2GHz Dual Core Snapdragon or 1.2GHz Dual Core Exynos ??
how much ram available in sensation ?? with and without sense 3.0

Hard to say what's faster without comparing them both on exactly the same ROM. I've heard that the Snapdragon has slightly more brute force than the Exynos (45 MFLOPS on the Exynos, compared to 46 on the Snapdragon).
If I can find someone with a Galaxy S2, I'm going to put both phones on CM7 and run a series of benchmarks on them. That'll really show us what's faster.

that's nice but sensation screen 540 x 960 !! CPU will take more from screen

Buy the upcoming Hercules. The galaxy s 2 is supposed to be the best android phone. The sensation is good, but the galaxy s2 is just flat out better.

i know SGS2 is better but for me i think sensation is better because i love the design and 540 x 960..but which camera is better sensation or SGS2 ?

Go for sensation

Exynos is faster at the same clock speed, simply because the A9 is a better architecture than the Scorpion.

The Hercules will have the same processor as the Sensation (well, all the info points to that so far).

Seriously?!?! You would ask that question in the Sensation forum. I don't believe any of us here would purchase a phone of this type without proper thought given.
Find an iPhone forum and ask them which they think is better, I'm sure you can guess what they would say.
In the end you have to decide which features are most important to you and then match that up with a phone that provides those features.
There's no such thing as a perfect phone although in my opinion the Sensation comes damn close.

The camera on the HTC sensation is quite good in my opinion. And I'm very impressed with the 1080 p recording. Now I own a sensation 4g but I will sell it for the Hercules because, my personal experience, sense lags and considering this is a 1.2 Ghz dual core nothing should lag on this phone. Sense is very nice no question about that, but it's a heavy UI and it clearly slows down the phone. But the Qhd resolution on the phone is excellent, the build of the phone is unique and sexy and it is HTC so those are the pros for me. Cons are that the phone isnt as fast as other dual core smartphones, the speaker is pretty much useless and more ram would have been great considering sense takes a lot of it. But there's already S-off for the sensation so if you want to root and install custom ROMs than you should be fine, but then again you could do the same on the Hercules except you would have better hardware. I can talk all day, but at the end it's just a matter of what you're looking for. I want speed speed and more speed and unfortunately the sensation isn't speedy enough for me.

Buy the damn thing

Definitely buy a sensation, perfect phone since s-off is out.

[Q] HTC sensation or Galaxy s 2??

I don't know which to get I am tore in between both o the phones. Spec wise the galaxy s 2 wins but HTC sense is far better than touchwiz the only thing would suit me will be sense on the galclaxy s 2 but I have heard that it mite hard to port :-\
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I dont think TW 4.0 is bad. Its far far more better than crappy 3.0
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4d-wWCf4CQ&feature=feedu
Spec wise the Galaxy S2 lose.
The new snapdragon looks like more powerfull than tegra 2 / exynos, they give you a screen with more resolution and not using pentile, real rgb not 50% more of amoled plus that is less than real stripe.
a little less ram, but who uses 1gb of ram in a phone?
The only things for what I am going to buy the Galaxy S2, is because in 10 years, HTC has not make a decent camera on a phone and a decent audio quality in par with the iphone or the first galaxy, and this are for me totally killer features. Oh, and the internal phone storage.
In the battle HTC sense vs touchwiz, who cares, at the end most of the people turn off that programs and ends using adw or launcher pro.
It's a tough one. Up until HTC Sensation was announced, I was settled on SGS II. But now I'm in a dilemma.
However, SGS II has a better screen - lower resolution, but using SAMOLED+ instead of SLCD (and the difference is notable). SGS II also has a better front camera, more internal memory (a LOT more, 16 GB vs 1 GB), larger battery capacity, and it's thinner.
HTC on the other hand has a better camera, higher screen resolution, dual-led flash, and it's also on T-Mobile. It also comes with a 8 GB microSD card.

You nailed it for me. While I'm not really familiar with processors, the EVO 4G has a terrible camera and sound quality. Now I'm considering waiting for a sprint galaxy s2 instead of upgrading to the EVO 3D. I know that both phones will be good, but having the better quality photos and video will make me happy.

Apart from the higher resolution offered on Sensation, i can't see how SGSII loses in terms of spec. Initial benchmarks show Exynos perform much better than the new Snapdragon (which is based on the older A8 cortex) but i guess we juz have to wait till May when comparison can be done on retail units instead of those prototypes.
Can't agree more about the camera on HTC phones though. and thats why i'm getting rid of my Desire soon=)
I would have liked to get the Sensation, but I am in an AT&T contract.
Even if I decided to kill the contract and move to T-Mobile, I would be kinda screwed when AT&T acquires TMobile and then the Sensation will not be able to use 3G on AT&T since it does not support the bands.
So between the two I am pretty much forced to get the GS2, or wait and hope the a Sensation build will eventually support AT&T bands, which I will not do...
GS2 looks good enough, but TouchWiz looks awful
edit: ok maybe TW isn't so bad

I'm not so sure about that part. HTC has never been known to release phones with great cameras. Average at best, but not great. E.g desire hd, Mozart, HD2, desire, HD7. They're all average in their leagues.
Samsung on the other hand does release phones with great camera quality. E.g. Wave, Omnia HD, Pixon 12.
However since they haven't released the phone or shown any sample pictures, guess it's too early to judge.

Thought it was a joke when he said HTC has a better camera..
You are probably right about being early to judge Sensation but we're almost certain SGSII is coming with an awesome camera which is confirmed in most previews.
HTC the better camera? Perhaps a #sarcasm tag was needed before that.
In terms of whether the CPU/GPU is better, remains to be seen, there are benchmarks which show each one outperforming the other. Furthermore remains to be seen whether there is any difference in use, even if one is better than the other by a reasonable margin.
For me, I don't like the crappy cameras of HTC and their habbit of crippling great phones with underppwered batteries...I love my HD2 but I cannot forgive HTC for putting a 1230 mAh battery which barely manages to last through a working day!

[Q] New fast phone?

At the moment I am using a HTC Desire and I find it to be to slow and the internal storage is to small.
Can someone recommend a fast dual core phone?

This. You've answered your own question.
Maybe LG optimus 2X
My wife has gotten an Atrix 4g (AT&T), which recently got a gingerbread update. It's a beast of a phone, and quite fast.
The whole idea of the "webtop" dock for it, is just ridiculous to me though, especially since it costs more than a netbook.
*edit*
also worth note, it has 16gb built in user storage and 1gb of RAM.

Hi guys, I know I'm a little off-topic, but not that much.
I would like your opinion on weather I should get an HTC Desire for about $330 or a Milestone 2 for about $530, or even de Defy for the same $530.
I ask because the hardware specs are very similar for the three, but i Know the desire is older.
Thank you.

Sorry about that, I'll make my own thread.
As a sensation owner I would say have play with both of them ( and look through the general sections on xda), the sensations gets stupidly hot for no reason and because the antennas are in the back cover the gsm/wcdma and wifi both have death grip issues.. as far as performance I know the sgs II is the fastest and has a better more well saturated screen but if I am no mistaken also gets really hot.... thats bench marks fast but I dont see any slow down on the sensation games play perfectly and the UI with customs roms is blisteringly fast...
hard decisions for you
Oh, I see a few more people have jumped in... Still not sure what to get... I shall look around... I not to sure about the 3d... The one I looked at hurt my eyes...
Probably will keep using my desire awhile longer... Need more memory... Need to decide soon!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
The Samsung Galaxy S II has the better screen, and from what I've seen it makes better pictures. Also the battery for the SGSII is better: Li-Ion 1650 mAh vs. the Li-Ion 1520 mAh from the HTC Sensation. But the differences are not that great, and the HTC Sense from the Sensation is a great UI, and if you use a custom ROM from LeeDrOiD you can get a greater experience from the Sensation.
For day-to-day usage I would get the HTC Sensation, the Phone UI is the best out there. You may find similar apps on the market that mimic the Phone UI, but it's not the same.
And until you get your new device, try a ROM that has data2EXT. This will increase your internal storage to up to 2GB. Most HTC Desire Custom ROMs have this data2EXT option. Go here -> Desire Index - Everything Desire is here!

Is the processor comparable with nVidia tegra 2

I am currently using T-Mobile G2X.
I am planning to jump ship to different phone.
My choice are HTC SENSATION and Samsung Galaxy R.
Can anybody point me to some benchmark that compares g2x with GB and sensation?
most of the comparisons done so far only with froyo g2x and GB sensation and sensation wins.
Moreover do you people find the battery capacity reasonable?
For dual core, 4.3" qhd screen having phone, isn't 1520 mah battery too tiny?

nvidia tegra 2 is way faster than HTC sensation's processor in terms of benchmark result.
Moreover HTC sensation is the slowest dual core android mobile phone in terns of benchmark results .
But I have jumpshipped to it anyway.

That is without Hardware acceleration and stock tests.
I am referring the phonedog comparison of G2X and sensation.
In which they ran 3d benchmark against g2x running 2.2 and sensation runnning 2.3
Sensation got a score of 1900 and g2x got a score of 2300, if hardware acceleration may not be taken into account then it wont be for g2x also no?

The benchmarks don't take into consideration dual cores and the fact that the Sensation is running Asynchronous cores.

I think that Sensation shows bad benchmark results because of that crap heavy Sense ui. Qualcomm's s3 processor is quite powerful.

And benchmarks don't mean you-know-what.
Slowest dual core? lolno.
Ive only been here a couple of months. Ive gathered quite a bit reading all these forums. Ive read up on stuff like these elsewhere. Ive also played around with a LOT of phones. And by playing around I dont mean the 15 mins in a shop opening apps and checking camera of different phones before you buy them. My friends have pretty good phones (O2X, GS2, GS, Desire HD, O3D, Xperia arc, neo etc)
Ive done almost everything there is to do on those phones and always I end up glad I have my sensation. Looks - hands down winner. Sexiest phone ever, tied with the arc imo. Its no slouch. Benchmarks? I get **** high scores on custom ROMS. After I proved it, I uninstalled the apps from my phone cos they meant nothing. People are always gonna claim their phone is better and cos an app gave them a coloured bar with a nice big number, its way faster. Trust me, you're gonna be glad you got a senny. (Unless its defective of course) S2 feels like crap, runs at the same speed mine does if not seemingly slower and the screen is tough to work with. (SAMOLED? lol not as cool as it claims to be) and its less responsive than mine. Im happier with my sensation than I would have been with any other phone in almost EVERY aspect. The xperia Live's speaker volume has me a bit jealous but thats about it. I use earphones anyway. G2X feels awful. I cant work with it. Ever. And the camera on the senny blows the others outta the water. With the crap HTC drivers and the asynchronous system, the senny is bloody amazing and can easily easily keep up with any phone and beat the crap out of most. Wait till ICS. Proper ICS.
Ok end of rant. If anyone says your phone is the slowest dual core - laugh. Then walk away
Oh and all the websites that review phones.. I relied on them quite a bit myself. Trusted the pics of benchmarks they put up and read how they reviewed phones and took tiny little things like the 2MP FFC on the S2 and worshipped it, etc etc. 90% of those sites have no idea what theyre talking about. Any phone with the bigger MHz clock speed on the box is faster. .7MP more FFC is holyshishkebab. phone is .3mm slimmer! OH MY GOD! Thats the basic idea. Dont trust that. Do your own research.
Now - actual end of rant.
Thanks for your rant, as even I am now owning a sensation too.
I am an avid fan of Htc sense ui,
I didn't know any other strength of HTC sensation before reading your post.
Eventhough g2x is more slimmer than sensation, in look wise sensation is class apart from any android Mobile phone and can be comparable only with Sony Ericsson xperia arc and iPhone

The dual cores we have now are fast enough to run every game in the Market smoothly. Just don't go for a Blackberry. Those things are waaaay slower than any modern Android smartphone and there's less things you can do with them.

Sure, they can't do as much, but saying they're slower is biased. The 9900, the one he mentioned, is as fast as any high end android and faster than many others. Blackberries are for people looking for a specific set of features, let's not be mindless bigots.
i'd wait. nexus' are still expensive, and with the new phones coming out soon, it will drop in price significantly. it'll always be a catch-up game, like with anything else that is mass produced. there will always be better things in a few months. ultimately, it's up to you what you spend your money on.
To be fair, Blackberry is for business folks that are lost in a world of technology.
There will be a number of quadcore phones (by HTC, LG, Samsung, probably some others - of course all with custom overlays instead of pure ICS), announced at MWC in two weeks. And it will take some more time (in some cases even months I suppose) until you can buy them.
The next Nexus with a quadcore chip is almost a year away. So you must decide if you want a Galaxy Nexus (pure Android, fast updates, nice screen, NFC - but a mediocre camera and no SD card slot) or wait for phones like the Galaxy S3 with better hardware and an overlay.
But in terms of Sense, TouchWiz etc: If there is a phone with lovely hardware but an annoying skin, there's always the option to install CM9 e.g.
Wait for the HTC Endeavor (or Ville) !
id say go for the nexus, if some say dual core is an overkill, quad core is an over over overkill, concerned bout the battery

I might be wrong but shouldn't battery life actually be better with the Tegra 3? This is because of that 5th core that's used for less demanding tasks and the others 'come alive' when needed.
Sensation xl..
Just read that the Galaxy Nexus 32GB version may well not arrive. 16GB of memory fills up pretty quick with a few Gameloft games, some music, a couple of ROM's, some backups and data from other apps so do consider this when buying it.
If I were you I'd wait for some of the new devices.

HTC One X vs One S vs My Sensation XE

Hi guys not sure if this would be classed as being under the HTC ONE X forum but should be as its aimed at it.
I've currently got a HTC Sensation XE and I'm looking to upgrade to the One X or One S now I'm unsure which one to go with the One X is about £70+ than the One S but has the super LCD 2 HD screen and the other only has the pentile super amoled which is similar to the original galaxy s's where I could see the pixels every now and again depending on the situation etc.
I'm torn between them both as I've been asked to check for any issues with either of them so im wondering is the performance increase going to be there on the one X as I've heard the tegra is slower than the Qualcomm s4 chips quad core wise and the dual s4 chip isnt far off in certain tests, benchmarks and real life?
Could anyone provide me with some useful information and feedback between them and if the performance is a step up from dual core or if its how android used to be not supporting dual core properly till later android builds etccheers

i upgraded from a Sensation XE recently to a One X and i have been loving it. Sense has become smoother (albeit not earthshakingly smoother as the XE on ICS is doing pretty okay) and the screen is awesome.
One thing. I checked out the One S after using my One X for a few weeks. I could actually see pixelation. Kinda surprised since everyone says its not that big an issue. Seems like our eyes adjust very quickly to better display

(true, my hands are kind off small) I used to have an HD2, which is only .5cm smaller yet way easier to hold and use with one hand. As I cycle a lot I find this quite important.
If it wasn't for the screen and dev support (don't get me wrong: both are very important!), I would actually buy the One S. In everyday usage the One S is just as fast (maybe even faster) as the quad One X. Unless you want to play a lot of high quality games. If there is any difference at all with 'normal' usage, you won't notice the 0.05 seconds. Also the S' battery life is better, and it looks and feels better imo. This is something really personal though.
But yeah.. Once you've seen the X's screen you won't be satisfied with any other.. Just don't buy it because you think a quadcore phone will surely be faster/better.
Just my two cents.
Yeah as said the screen on the X is much much better. I compared my X to a S in store and was actually surprised as to how much better it is. Also coming from the GS2 the X doesn't really feel that much bigger in hand, and I got small hands. I got the grey one, which looks awesome in my opinion. Even better than the white, but that's personal preference of course.

The One X has way more dev action, and its is likely to stay that way
As you are posting on xda I'm guessing that it is an important factor for you to consider

Oh look, another Samsung employee.
So, about the Samsung, Why no 3 colour pixels? Why so ugly? Why flimsy plastic?
Get yourself a Samsung, you deserve it!
You should get the HTC ONE X, it has a quad core plus that huge screen. You'll see that it will definetely worth it.

Actually in the US it doesn't have quad core because of LTE.
