Of all places, it's coming from hong kong aaand sold out for that matter!

Hello, I want some help!
What earphones can I get that can give me Music Control and Mic so I can enjoy Beats software.
I think Beats tour or the other ones doesn´t work. Or there is any way to make them work??
Thanks

The best way is to use the original HTC Headset ans solder earbuds of your choise on it.

Would love to get a one, but too expensive

I got a hold of a pair. I know a lot of people here rip them for being overpriced and such, but they are a good pair of headphones. If you can find it cheaper than retail, like ebay or the like, then I say go for it. I own vmoda lp crossfades and they are my favorite over the ear, but for the in ear, this is a great second fav IMO.
I attached a pic. And comparing to stock earphones, it doesn't compare at all. The bass is def there. I am not a big bass fan, but it's def a plus compared to stock. And to have this answer and end calls this works great for me...until MIUI has it's BT issues fixed

i still got one unused in the box,
not gonna use them because i still got my old shures.

After some research, isn't "iBeats" fake? I mean, yeah they're actually called iBeats but the phones that come with the sensation are rebranded as "urBeats" Correct me if I'm wrong! I wouldn't get these at all!

The oringinal poster made a mistake.
iBeats is a earpiece that beats is selling which looks similiar to what HTC has bundled with their beats phones which is the urBeats we all know.
One key difference between iBeats and urBeats is the mic/control piece which in the iBeats case is diamond shaped while in urBeats is just normally round.
Soundwise I wouldn't know as I have not any access to either one of them.
Hope this clears the misunderstanding!

Should be the same, but that white one is the same price essentially. That seller you posted, doesn't ship to the US. Last I checked.

I bought them a week ago and were shipped. Hopefully I'll know what their like in a few days.

differences between HTC SENSATION & HTC SENSATION XE

Hi all. I just want to know are there any hardware differences between htc sensation and sensation XE. Is the same CPU? What about the speaker?
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3875&idPhone2=4164
Better processor better sound...that is all.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using XDA Premium App
More ROM, bigger battery and the processor is running at 1.5GHz (not underclocked at 1.2GHz like the normal Sensation)...

From what I have read, its the same phone except they didnt underclock it. Exact same processor running at its normal speed. This can be done by rooting...
I say buy the regular sensation (unless the XE release is free from the dust problem) and then root the phone.

No. The xe has a new sound enhancement through software. But root users are already taking advantage of this.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
It's basically the same phone with red details on the case, and not downclocked to 1.2Ghz, with a higher capacity battery to compensate the higher speed on cpu.
If you must buy the phone take the XE, if you have already a sensation, a custom rom will do the work, an upgrade will not give benefits over a rom and is a waste of money (IMHO)

It's not a best processor, both the XE and the normal version have an Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8260. And would be nice to say "better equalization" instead of "better sound", and it's achievable from the normal ones just installing the apposite mod.
The real improvements are a more powerful battery and the better headphones. Neither more, nor less.
Aside from the bigger battery the XE ain't got new hardware.

Would anyone know if the XE will come with the same dust problems or if modifications to glue or screen will have been made...?
The new sensations being shipped us supposed to have the bigger battery and the 1.5 overclock.

Yeah they just over clocked this like me. So I got an XE. ;-)
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio
I personally don't like the red details on the new case, so i'm happy with my normal Sensation and a custom ROM that gives nearly all the same additions.
Karooluss said:

The sound is not better, its just a retarded gimmick eq. Trust me.
Same device compare here, XE has Oced CPU, larger ROM and battery, however, stated specs of XE accessible ROM state 1000mib and standard Sensation 550mib. Dont know about the rest of you but I have at least 1000mib accessible ROM in Sensation.
Somebody know how much the XE headphone cost separately?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App
The headphones are the equivelent of Monster iBeats, which I believe retail at £79.99 in most stores. Might get them cheaper online though.

Other than the colour are there any other differences in it?
I have a black unit also that I bought a week before for my mom, so I was able to do a full comparison.
The phones are identical both in hardware and software, anyone that thinks that the white unit comes with ICS built-in forget about it.
The phone as we already know is ICS ready and will get an official update.
The cool thing that you get everything in silver-white mix: the phone, usb cable, headphones.
I have to say it looks better in silver-white than in black.

[Q] Should I buy a sensation now?

Contract is up, been offered an HTC sensation for £21per month, 24 month contract, 600min, 500mb, unlimited texts. Highly tempted, but the phones been out for a while now and I know others with much better processors will be out soon. What to do!? Would you guys still recommend this phone at this time?
What would you do?
Cheers
Depends, the new phones that do come out will probably be quite expensive at launch.
But that should push the price of the Sensation down further. The contract you're being offered is pretty good though.
I do recommend the Sensation but if I were you, I'd wait a few weeks and see if the price drops further with the launch of new devices.
Thanks for your message, I've been with my HTC Desire for a while now, the Sensation should be quite an upgrade anyway. Any major disadvantages of the Sensation compared with other phones? Most reviews I read are quite generic.
you should wait man the sensation has death grip issues also dust under the screen and overheating issues the phone is also bulky wait quad core phones are about to release.

no death grip here either. For me this phone hasnt had any real downsides. great development, great help, really nice hardware. My worst problems include that the screen can be scratched despite being gorilla glass and the back cover has HTC glued on and some people have had it fallen off. Plus the new phones may have quad core but that just means more battery usage plus who on here other devs are gonna use/need 4 cores?

Try it!,
I never buy phones right after they're released, they are usually overpriced at the launch. £21 is a good offer but if money is not an issue for you I'd go for galaxy nexus. Prices are already down and you can get a good deal. Quad core is just a gimmick, you'll not even notice a difference.

Should I do this trade?

Some guy wants to trade me his PERFECT like new Nexus S that comes with all acesspries, and a Samsung infuse 4g with a cracked screen for my sensation. Any thoughts on this?

Nexus S is a good phone, but I wouldn't do it. I don't like AOSP that much to take a downgrade on hardware. Also I've no use for the Infuse, so I wouldn't really care to fix it.

It depends on what kind of music you listen to If you listen to Trace and Rap and stuff it's good for you because beats have enhanced bass
If you listen to Rock and Metal (like me) I'd suggest you to buy Akg earphones..
or you can buy some Sennheiser earphones which are really good for every one
P.s make sure you're not buying fake ones
Hard to say. I am sure it was my fault though I used them for work. They did last about 6 months

You will enjoy the beats earphones. I know alot of people are antibeats and alot of people (especially on this forum) think that its a ripoff to get em.. But hey for $30 its a darn good price for good quality earphones. I own em and im happy with it. It serves the purpose of what i use it for (jogging, work, gaming, etc) perfect earphones. As for the htc earphones. Not sure what to say man.. The ear piece is too big so it could hardly fit in my ears..plus not good for jogging cuz it would always fall off.. Other than that though, the sound is pretty good. Cheers mate~ hope you enjoy your new earphones.
