After owning my Sensation and hearing about all the issues on here. and having one or two myself. im having mixed feelings about keeping the sensation over my Desire HD. Anyone else feel the same way
Just wanted to really know how many people own a sensation now or keeping it or selling it off.
might help me make a decision. or see how other people feel.
After all it is potentially £450 ($600) daily part of our life
Hell Yeah im keeping it :-D! I like it better than my Desire HD and still on stock rom. Imagine the joy when it gets unlocked!

me too, i have noticed that my network signal is not far behind from my dhd. sometimes it sems better but majority of the time it is the same or 1-2 bars lower than my dhd. its easier to deathgrip the sensation.
but dhd does suffer from deathgrip too i tried it.
Also im thinking the problem may be cured a little either by HTC or if different radios are released and roms.
So far, im very pleased with mine. Great screen with realistic color reproduction and resolution, Sense is nice for stock and i really enjoy the shape of the curved glass. The phone feels slim in your hand because of it's palm friendly shape.
A winner

I must say I am keeping mine. the full price @ 648 isn't worth it but I'm a phone addict. This screen and sense 3.0 is beautiful. If you put your hand at the back of the phone to have the audio come up and it bounces off your hand then the speaker is loud but unfortunately it shoots out in the whole room and its low if you don't do that. The phone gets hot sometimes but not as much as the first day. It's was burning up. Beyond that, the memory isn't an issue!

Lovin it.
I thought i'd never see a phone that felt better than the Nexus One. Then hearing it had a 4.3" screen, I thought it would be a behemoth like the HD7, the only other 4.3" phone i've owned. But it feels much smaller and natural to hold. And i've always been a fan of Sense.
Unless some bugs start showing up, this puppy's staying.
I've decided on the evo 3d. Bye bye sensation

I love mine, but the internet connection is very slow most of the time. If I'm not on Wifi, it's pretty bad. Maybe a custom ROM will help, or new radio, etc. But yeah, definitely keeping it, barring some tragic accident or malfunction, in which case I would just buy a new one lol
I own this htc sensation just for a day.. I am very dissapiont with the wifi signal wifi signal can block by one finger! this is unacceptable. I don't think I can keep it, I want to exchange with a samsung galaxy s 2.

i like but facing lots of probs....
when i surf or watching movie, the divice generate heat. and battery perfomance is bad i am using 3G.
also last night it's not charging i have turn of get out battery and than turn it on so many times than it charged i don't know the reason....
device is awesome 3D effect is awesome the audio is good but the speaker volium is low.... when it ring...
tell me abt other review.....
Traded my g2x and 200 for the sensation. Yes, I REALLY WANTED IT lol.
Two days after trading, heres what ive noticed...
Pros...
Nice screen, in comparison to my g2x, I'd rate them equal.
Battery life, GREAT! 24 hours of light use, about 16 heavy use. G2x was 8-16 stock b4 rooting.
Cons...
Lag, naturally sense ui is going to hang more often that lgs' "stock" framework. With that said, unless my battery temperature gets over 40 degrees c, it runs smooth. After 40 degrees? I have to reboot and let the phone sit to cool down.
Heat, my particular device gets rather hot with heavy use over a period of 30 minutes or more.
Keyboard, the "swype" mod on the htc keyboard really can't compete with swype itself. However, its awesome having a rough hybrid of the 2.
What's with the nonscrolling live wallpapers? Dual core processor and it can't handle scrolling live wallpapers? Confused...
In the end, I am happy with the sensation, but I do wish I didn't have the heat issues so bad... Once s off and root are accomplished, I'm sure cm7 will run beautifully on this phone. Until then, I'll get my sense ui fix. ;-P

got my Sensation 2 days ago, really digging it so far.
love the big screen.
not sure if it has to do with qhd's higher pixel but typing seems lot more accurate... this just could be due to the screen size.
the phone is so sexy... Design department at HTC did a great job.
hands down best looking handset currently out.
battery life seems decent.
speaker could be a bit louder but I guess it's typical of HTC product.
having fun with the phone so far.

I just got mine Yesterday and I love everything about it. Its an amazing phone
Got the phone this Friday and love it ... honestly, i didnt noticed any of those major bugs i saw when browsing throughout the forum xept the white lines someone mentioned but thats problem of like two widgets and not the phone itself. Yet theres one thing, maybe its bug or whatnot, whats pissing me off ... imminent audio muting and call autopickup when using any kind of headset, its very annoying especially when u have a call from a person you dont realy want to speak with (example yer boss on Friday and Saturday night ... dig it? )
On the other hand ... iam not realy impressed by the 8Mpix camera nor the so called "fullHD" videos since they look like ass no matter what you do.
Anyway ... on the scale from 0 to 10 ill give it a 12 ... where 10 is my iPhone 4 16GB and 3 my lol HD Mini failphone.
I love it based on its potential. Once its rooted this phone be is gonna special. Right now it feels like the software is underusing the hardware imo.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Loving the phone. build quality is amazing. you are actually holding a phone and every other plastic phoneish stuff feels like a toy from then. Only con is they could have made the speaker and headset volume a bit louder but when we get root i am sure this will be fixed.
People who are complaining about lags. Sense 3.0 is a great interface and my phone does NOT lag. I know people are gonna say their dhd with a custom rom will run smoother but sensation is on a stock rom so please stop telling about this. Sensation is going to fly with custom roms it is gonna be so smooth that it would slip away in your hand.

I've had the Sensation for 9 days now and it's simply amazing. Coming from the HD2, I'm amazed by how fast it is (one of the few who don't whine about how it doesn't feel like dual core phone?) and so far, everything works the way it should *knocks on wood*
Again, coming from the HD2, I also like how the phone feels when you're holding it in your hand, so much better than the HD2.
And I also don't mind the locked bootloader. Of course, it would/will be nice to have it unlocked, but I can live with having the stock rom on it.
Battery an issue
Love the phone so far, except the lack on mini HDMI, battery could be better and of course the low volume, 8 out of 10 for me will see how the SGII stacks up
As the title says what are the advantages is it just the 3d

Reviews of the EVO 3D say it lacks the lag that the Sensation has but battery life, like all WiMax and LTE phones up til this point, is completely lackluster.

damn straight! the evo 3D sticks to HTC almost-tablet styling, where as the sensation has sleek curves is is significantly lighter.
3D is 100% a gimmick thanks to movies like avatar and dark knight, the nintendo 3DS is proof of that!
I think your right looks wise the sensation wins thanks

not only that, but for the price/hardware/capabilities, i think the sensation wins all categories...pending unlock :/ and from everything ive read lately (A LOT, bored working midnights ) the evo3D will recieve bootloader unlock first (considering it was supposed to be BUIB [Bootloader Unlocked In Box]), but when the sensation gets it...whooo boy, watch out!
As for lag on the sensation, i have barely noticed any. Installed launcher pro heaps of Homescreen widgets and its still slick as you like. Multitasking is a dream!
Zero dust either!

Lucky! i have dust, but im on the fence about returning cuz i just sold my HD2 and have no replacement :/ i still use sense 3.0, loving the 3D UI since it was ported to the HD2, and it isnt slow at all, just dont load you homescreens with every htc widget available!
The absence of lag on the EVO 3D is a good thing for the Sensation! I don't believe that it is caused by better hardware but by software optimization! This means that we have to expect the same performance on our sensation when it gets future updates!
The difference is basically more RAM/better FFC on the EVO and a better rear facing camera/1080p video recording on the Sensation. The Sensation also has an aluminum unibody while the EVO is mainly plastic. In the end, it's up to the user to decide which features are more important.

The EVO 3D has 1GB of RAM versus 768MB in the Sensation. That certainly contributes to a lag-free experience.
EDIT: aNYthing24 beat me to it.
Hold both phones in my hand side by side the EVO 3D doesn't feel nearly as good in your hand. Amazing what a few fractions of a MM make, and the way the bodies curve the Sensation feels about 1/2 the thickness of the EVO. The Sensation just dissapears when you put it in your pocket. You can feel the big slab of plastic of the EVO in your pocket. Function wise they perform about the same for me. More RAM is always welcome.
quit making a big deal about ram! yes more is always better but if you owned a hd2 and seen how smooth it ran android then you would know that the ram that the sensation has is more then enough. unlock bootloader and stock android, or an OTA updates is going to do this phone justice! i would stick with the sensation as its just a nicer looking phone!

I bought an EVo 3d a few days ago, and the 3D features were cool, but not cool enough that I'd make it my full-time phone. One advantage it has is it always has 200-250 mb or more of available memory, whereas the Sensation normally has around 100mb.

If it's not software related can you explain to me why the sense 3.0 port on the DHD runs smoother than on Sensation and EVO 3D ????
I love the design of the sensation but i feel they could have made it so much better by copying the evo 3d a little.
I personally love a dedicated camera button so seeing that on the evo 3d and not the sensation was a little disappointing.
The placement of the charging port is a little more than frustrating when trying to text or even play with the sensation with 2 hands, i like how the evo 3d is located at the top instead of the bottom.
Another little annoyance is the over 200mAh difference in batteries between the two devices. Im sure like stated before they decided to go with a bigger one on the evo due the the battery drain of sprints 4g phones
Obviously these LITTLE things arnt that big of a deal as i would still choose the sensation over the evo 3d again and again

It's no gimmick. It's actually a pretty damn cool feature. I thought it was a gimmick too but HTC really did a good job making the first stereoscopic device. The green hornet in 3d looked pretty sweet.
edit: the big difference to me is the size. The E3D is huge...I mean heavy as in Thunderbolt heavy. To some that's a good thing to others its a negative.
I did the same thing. EVO 3D is IMO head over heels faster than the Sensation when i first tried it out. The 3D i thought i was gonna ignore it because i thought it was a gimmick too, but i ended up freaking loving it and taking 3D pics left and right. The front frame is also made of metal so it feels like a tank and i feel better knowing i have more ram also to help with the futureproofing.
What i do miss are the data speeds, Sprint sucks at this since i dont have wimax where i live and 3G speeds are embarrasing. But my bill is chraper so whatever lol

Although the SGS2 is a fantastic device, it's not all that much better than the Sensation. The only real selling points it has over the Sensation is the SAMOLED+ display tech, the onboard storage, and the Exynos CPU. It's also thinner and lighter. The Sensation though, has a higher density screen so even though it's LCD, it's nicer to look at (IMO). The size/weight issue is a personal thing - I had the original SGS and thought it felt too cheap and light to be such expensive device. To me, the extra heft of the Sensation makes it feel a nicer device, but whatever.
If you were upgrading from an older device, it'd be a tough choice as it is. If I were you though, I'd stay with the Sensation because you just won't notice $530 (or even $250) worth of difference
EDIT: as a side note, I did upgrade to the Sensation from a similar device - the LG Optimus 2X. I had multiple issues with that device though, and the Sensation feels like a dream in comparison.
I've just had the SGS2 and got rid of it for the Sensation. I don't regret it. What I will say is this : whichever one you have you will want the other!! But I can tell you that the Sensation is worth keeping. Find a rom that you like and personalise & tweak it. Personally, I'm using xl DI GIT AL lx "digitalized" ics themed rom. Very quick.
The phone is more of a premium handset in other's eyes as well.

This person is right.
Why anyone would get a device that's about to get outdated really, really soon makes no sense to me.
Id stick with the Sensation as well. Once it has ICS, it will be on the same level as the Prime anyways. Not as good, but on the same level.
Matt
I was waiting for the SGS2 to come out as well but now that it is out I actually don't think it is any better than the Sensation. I went to tmobile store to try it out and found that my Sensation feels better because of Sense. The SGS2 was not thinner than the Sensation imo. it feels bulkier in my pocket. I'm glad i went with the sensation instead of waiting forever for the SGS2
I'd stick with the Sensation and just load ICS when it get's released.
why bother with the SGSII at this point? especially considering Tmous version uses the same Snapdragon processor?
if you really feel the need to upgrade just wait out a few more months for the newer phones in the pipeline... at the very least until Nov. for the Nexus.

I would definitely go with the SGSII... Well I did, it's the better phone hands down. Longer battery life, not laggy like sensation as far as stock goes, it's been out two weeks and it's already rooted ( like a week ago) it already has a couple of ROMs and the super AMOLED plus display is stunning. Personally I like having a light device, it may be plastic but I'm sure it has better chances of surviving a drop than the sensation. Now on the other hand the sensation has a great resolution, very sharp and lots of ROMs and devs behind it so if you're into ROMs and customizing and all that than it should be good too. But comparing both phone stock, no contest, the SGSII is the better phone.
people should stop comparing SGS2 stock with Sensation stock!
Sense ROMs will always be slower then stock Android.
Main point of HTC phones are Sense. If you dislike Sense then SGS2 is the way to go.
I would also stich with sensation
Go to a shop and take a SGS2 and turn it on. Take your sensation and turn it on. Place the two displays in front of you.
At this point you will just have noticed the low res of the sgs2 and the blueish display of the samsung, and you will turn it off and return to the shelf.
Problem solved.
Did it catch anyone's attention? Softwarewise I hate touchwiz, but hardwarewise it seems pretty appealing

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.
