iphone 4s vs htc sensation 4g?

so what do u guys think about the iphone 4s? seems like only now apple caught up to the game......8mp cam? sensation check......duo core? sensation check......1080p vid recording? sensation check..........4g speed? sensation check....iphone 4s? fail.
any thoughts against out beloved sensation? just based on specs?

I lost it at "duo core".

The iPhone's camera and GPU are significantly better than the Sensation's. They also can both do 14.4 Mbps down and 5.76 Mbps up. Everything else is pretty much comparable though.

why???????? yet another pointless thread is this what xda has become there is an iphone 4s vs *** in EVERY Forum now.....

I just came from an iPhone 4. I love them both honestly. I just love smart phones in general.
You need to ask yourself what are you expecting your phone to do for you? Are you on T-Mobile, and if so, expect a terrible web, downloading, and YouTube experience with your Edge only data speeds. Hope you have WiFi everywhere you go. Unlocking and using the Gevey SIM etc. all a hassle. You can somewhat customize the iPhone if it's Jailbroken, but it's nothing like Android customizing. Forget about watching Flash videos on the iPhone, cause they still haven't allowed it. The plus to the iPhone 4 is the amazing camera. I don't care how many megapixels any Android device has, the iPhone's 5 MP camera blows em all away! The iPhones Retina display puts any Android phone to shame too. iPhones apps are genErally better, and there are more of them. Apple products are built better, and honestly the OS is really well put together and easier to use.
The Sensation is faster, more customizable with tons of ROM's, and more being cooked up daily. HTC makes solid devices and are always cutting edge with the newest of everything technologically.
Again, what's most important to you? My decision to come back to the Sensation was not having 4G, or even 3G. Maybe if the iPhone 4S comes to T-Mobile I will try one again. T-Mobile has micro SIM cards at the retail stores now, looks pretty promising to me??

People just want to know what to bring up in RL discussions with those iPhone-fanboys...

I've never owned an iPhone 4, but have spent lots of time playing with them. I honestly like the way the os looks, a lot more, in comparison with android. The experience just feels like more care and attention to detail is put into it. The home screens are also a lot smoother in general. Using the phone is just more fluid in general. And yeah, the camera and screen are awesome.
However, I still love my Sensation. I like the customization ability, the larger screen, and the fact that I regain some of the fluidity and better ui, with launchers and whatnot. I'd take my Sensation over an iPhone.

If 4s had the same screen size as Sensation or at least 4" I'd have it any time over Sensation. Hardware goodness + highly polished and smooth UI = win. I prefer Sense though....

Agreed, another reason I retired my I4, screen size sucks! Imagine our Sensations with the Retina display??? I would give a pinky for a larger Iphone screen. Still, my Sensation is amazing.

No, no, no, I love T-Mobile, I am on T-Mobile here in CA with my Sensation. I am saying you can't even get 3G on an unlocked iPhone on T-Mobile, you can only get Edge. Not bagging on T-Mobile, just can't handle only having Edge on the iPhone, it kills the whole iPhone experience. I need my 4G, so I ditched it.

the Sammy gs3 is pretty darn good. Too bad its made of plastic and has pentile (but I read that with its screen size and stuff, pentile is hardly noticeable). Touchwiz is far more better than the sgsII's one. It would be a waste going for the sgsII when the sgs3 is around the corner (June for America, Samsung said)

HTC ONE X vs Samsung galaxy s3

So I had the Samsung rep in today showing me the Samsung galaxy s3 today, first thing I did was run a quadrant bench mark and antutu, quadrant benchmark for both were pretty similar. On antutu both phone were pretty similar too, I did like the Samsung feature where you can minimise a video window and watch it while carry out other tasks, neat,,, hope fully it can be hacked to make run on other quad-core phones, build qualiy I have to say was very poor for the Samsung s3, the back cover is a flimsy bit of plastic, so for build quality HTC ONE X wins hands down. I do like the ability of removable battery and Memory card which I wish the one x had,
So guys what are your opinions...
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

can already do the pop up player thing with "stick it".
As for HOX vs. GS3. I had 2 HOX that were faulty. sent them back and stuck with my Note waiting for GS3 thinking it would be the don of phones. Watched the launch event and was underwhelmed enough to get my 3rd HOX. this one is spot on. I'm lucky/stupid/daft enough to carry a work phone and a personal phone, so might get GS3 as my work handset, definitely want to try it hands on first though.

Yeah but stick it is very glitchy, I have had many Samsung phones and HTC, that's one of the perks working for mobile phone retailer, I have not had any Hox back faulty yet lol,
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

being a stock feature i have no doubt that pop up player is better than stick it, which i have to say i uninstalled as didnt use it. I'm not sure i'd use pop up player, although i have said that in the past about many things that now form part of my daily mobile life! i can see me using that more than the voice recognition thing.
I have no sway one way or the other on sense vs. touchwiz, i am comfortable with either. I was interested in your comments on build quality. I just sold my Galaxy Note and GS2 shortly before that after getting the HOX, i would say the Note and GS2 are better built than the HOX, not as nice a design, and the materials dont feel as classy, but it seemed somehow more solid?? are you saying that the GS3 is more flimsy feeling than the GS2 or Note? disappointing if that is the case, although i will have to hold it in my hand and judge for myself.

HTC Evo3D was one of the worst phones I ever had in terms of build quality. My SGSII isnt as sturdy as my OG Evo and my old Hero, but its held up quite well over the last few months. As far as the HOX vs SGSIII, not having expandable memory is a deal breaker for me. Ill wait to SGSIII is released or get a note if it comes to Sprint.

Overall build quality of both phones is good, Hox is better feel, the s3 when hold it feels cheap, again its a personal opinion, even the Samsung rep said I agree with you, but at the end of the day he works for Samsung so he was quite reluctant to say any thing bad about s3, lol

The build quality has nothing to do with the materials used. HTC uses metals that are heavy and give the impressions of quality, yet they can't keep dust from getting under your screen ... Samsung may use plastic but that keeps the weight low. My SGS 2 (TMo version) compared to My Sensation is hands down for my SGS 2 and they use the same SoC..

On the One X the browser sucks because it keeps using the companion core, and overall the Tegra 3 gets hammered by the new Exynos pretty much everywhere. Anyway if I had to pick a phone now I'd probably get the One S: cheaper, better looking, not too big and with the excellent S4. I'm really looking forward to those WP8 devices with S4s on board.

It's a smaller One X. It actually beats the One X in bench marking due to it's lower resolution, but yeah, it's pretty much the same phone--if we're talking the american versions--just smaller.

The One S definitely is an underrated phone. Even HTC themselves don't really pay much attention to it.

yeah all the advertisements htc make are about the HTC One X...
for me, the htc evo LTE 4G is the "hidden king" of all smartphones, its the same as the htc one x, plus it has SD card slot, has a kid stand or something like that XD, and has the s4 Snapdragon which beat the tegra 3
hope htc release a GSM version of it soon, i already bought a htc one S because i like the 4.3" phones and because is so thin

OP you are FUNNY!

The HOX and HOS are perfect phones, if you're lucky enough to get a defect-free one. HTC really has shot their reputation w the quality management of this year phones.

I've never seen a One S advert. It's all One X. I understand they're obviously going to push their flagship phone, but the One S has just been neglected and is on par with the One X in terms of performance, just a small size. HTC big up photos being taken specifically off of the One X, when the One S has the exact same camera capabilities.
What annoyed me the most is the release of the Desire C. First the Desire is now the bottom of the barrel budget phones, when the original Desire was the flagship line, and it's the last budget phone HTC are doing, yet it has NFC capabilities, which the One S could have easily had, and should have.
As said above, HTC aren't what they used to be, and seem to be leaning towards Apple's business practices.

There's no way I would agree to this...
My One S can't have a stable USB tethering connection, so much that I went back to using my iPhone 4 as main phone. Before I root it and install more recent ROM (like the 1.84), I had numerous data issues: No data, No data despite having the icon on screen, Stuck on Edge, all required a reboot to fix. The phone have poor network reception barely better than my iPhone 4 "hold in the wrong way". I still can't use Skype. In less than one month I dented the case after a fall of 1 foot high on ceramic and scratched the screen in normal use (first time I scratch a screen without an accident). I won't comment on multitasking performance...

I love the phone but very disappointed we do not have NFC

I got something for you OP, since you decided to make this thread to make yourself feel better. My Galaxy S III bests your One X in almost every way. The only thing I would give the One X is looks. All that slideshow you linked to says is the One X is "the greatest camera phone ever", which I would have to disagree with (objectionable). It also says, "The One X might have snagged top honors, but it edged out the Galaxy S III by a fragment.

Mostly the design. I've had my fun with a brick looking phone (Infuse). You don't really appreciate the curves until you hold it in your hand and get a feel for it. The glass also is curved at the edges like the HTC One and makes swiping feel very nice. The etched back glass looks incredible in the right lighting too. Overall the phone is just simply sexy. The price is absolutely unbeatable and being the first to get updates is really nice too although I'll be going the custom route which this phone as at least 10 different ROMs already.

N4 has 3, 4 & 5 and with a different kernel you can increase the battery life pretty well though it will never be easily removable.

I would support the choice of the Nexus 4. Most bang-for-the-buck Android device since ever imo.
If money isn't that much of an issue, I would definitely look to the HTC One for beauty or maybe the SIV since there will almost definitely be a huge following for that phone..

Not to mention you not only have to unlock the bootloader but also s-off the device if you wanna be able to flash roms away from a computer. HTC one x had a big problem with achieving s-off for a couple months too....
HTC one looks good as do most htcs, but if you want dome aosp deving its def not the device to go for IMHO
Btw, long time no talk guys I'm still trying to decide on my next device as I'm due for an upgrade as well...

I'm personally leaning towards the SIV... about the same size as the Infuse, except a 5 inch screen+quad core+2gb ram....

I love my infuse but upgrade time came about two weeks ago and I went for the note2 and its awesome!!!! once you start using it you really appreciate the size of the screen it just makes doing everyday things on the phone easier and more enjoyable. I was also on the fence about waiting for the s4 but I went for the bigger screen and battery

I'm up for upgrade too and was looking at the HTC phones. I like the solid metal feel, but I guess I should reconsider. What would you recommend especially regarding development friendliness? (Samsung? LG? I know the Nexus is great for that) I'm not opposed to waiting for a while. I am extremely content with the active and awesome development work on here.
Is the large size of the Note 2 inconvenient at all? My beloved Infuse already takes up most of my pocket

I'll likely get a nexus4 or an iPhone. I'm tired of waiting for 3rd parties to support devices when the motivation is to make you buy a new one.
My wife has an atrix 4g, and still on stock 2.3. It's buggy to say the least.
I have a nexus 7, and didn't even feel the need to root it until recently. Stock actually works, and doesn't leave you wanting much more.
Sure, our infuses still work. We can flash firmware beyond 2.3, but the lack of official support means that some things are broken and will never be fixed... HDMI, 720p, etc.

Besides a nexus...Samsung seems to be the best, although I've read good things about Sony as well...

Been debating getting the N2 for a while.. Just not sure if I want to get it 5 months into its life. But honestly, compared to the GS4, the only thing really better to me at least is the 1080p display which is more of just a number selling point almost. Been out of contract for like 3 months now and getting ready to pull the trigger...

Blackberry Z10 or Q10.
I was playing with the BB Z10 the other day and it looks like they have a winner on their hands.
