Hey guys,
how's it going Sensation-ers ?
as it reads, I wanna buy one of them, is the XE worth the extra money?
plus, will Sensation ROMs work on the XE?
btw, i used to be a Galaxy S user, then stupidly enough I bought HTC Titan .. WP7 suck! , big time, failure on both fronts, fun and practicality !,, just an awesome OS design.
If you go Android,, you never go back ! ... Testified !
Thanks
From what i have read they are basically same and there is ROM for Sensation that turns Sensation into Sensation XE?!
BTW, I'm having the same question as you! Sensation XE is 33 eur more expensive than regular Sensation, but comes with good quality headphones i read somewhere? So are that headphones worth 33 eur if everything else is same? Have XE also stronger battery?
Can someone help us to solve this dilemma please?

how about the screen ?? ,, is it as washed as they say in reviews? I'm asking cause i know when you using it daily it's not the same .. so how's it from your point of view?
I have the XE and the screen looks great, although there is some text ghosting when scrolling through settings menu etc. Nothing that concerns me though.

There are 2 type of screen. If you got the AUO acer, then you got the vivid, pinkiest color, gosting issue and no wash a way screen. But if you got Sharp screen, you got screen with no vivid or pinkiest and gosting issue, but you got wash a way screen. Search thread about the two type screen on general section and you will understand it.

I have been running with the EVO3D battery since my purchase back in June. 1720 or so?
So I'm unfamilar with current prices compared to an older phone/new release.
This is only said if price is a concern.
Enjoy,
I read somewhere that the sensation XE has a slightly larger battery (by 0.3 cm i think) .. can someone confirm this piece of information ?
EVO 3D, XE battery, Anker (sensation) battery and Chichitec (1900 sensation) battery works...
hope it helps
thank you all for clearling this for me i realy appricate it
beside im thinking of buying evo 3d battery for htc sensation
Good afternoon,
I'm thinking about buying an Android device to try and walk since the beginning of the month to choose one ...
I had seen on vodafone HTC Sensation, but a few days ago I saw that HTC released new models sesantion, including HTC Sensation XE.
Like to have your opinion on what I choose, in terms of quality and price, preference the phone that last longer without needing to change. have more support.
I have the chance to vodafone HTC Sensation for 350€ and Sensation XE unlock for 550 €
sesantion specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_sensation-3875.php
sesantion xe specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_sensation_xe-4164.php
witch one i choose?
Thanlks
There the same phone the sensation is undrclocked to 1.2 where as the XE is clicked to 1.5 the XE looks slightly better in my opinion and has a bigger battery, the headphones are also rrp£79 with the XE
The hardware is exactly the same, if you plan to custom rom take the sensation if not take the XE

I'm also still not sure if I should pick the Sensation XE or not, I sure like the red colors in the case

You're suggesting to pick the normal Sensation if he plans to install custom ROMS, why do you have the XE then and install CM7?
Because its cheaper... duh.

Better battery better headphones better looking phone
I wish I got the sensation now tho. My Mrs has stolen my headphones
Sent from my CM7 Sensation XE using xda premium
So for your experience for the diference of the price the Htc sensation is better choice than sensation xe? or the sensation xe is better and much preference of sensation?
Thanks
Get og sensation. With the money you save buy a bigger sd card and headphones of your choice then root and flash xe rom and bam you have beats edition for a lower price. However i prefer cm7 with dsp manager or power amp

Sensation (1st model)
I got the HTC Sensation -
now there's a Sensation XL!! (White!!) Goodness, I think HTC got APPLE virus, "What comes in black, must turn white!"
I agree with some users here. Get the Sensation & root it. But my question:
1) XE model & XL model have bigger internal memory I think. But the RAM is at 768Mb... that's quite unfortunate.
2) Battery life - yes they are slightly larger = 1,620mA (Can't we buy that as a second battery ? - I would. But my battery life looks alright for the 1st month (after rooting, but I realise the charging to 100% is very slow.) I reckon it could be the voltage or the plug. I actually use the old plug with the new Micro USB cable.
Comments?
That will be your charger,
The xe and sensation are the same phone.
The xl gas 1gb of ram a singlecore processor 16gb internal and a bigger screen

So if i bought a regular sensation and put a custum rom, i have a sensation xe?
The normal sensation runs at 1.5ghz and got the beats audio? or just the speed processor?
You can have both, tbh the beats software is pants power amp is better

1GB RAM and 16GB internal? You sure, im buying it next week, all speces show 4gb(1gb usable), and 768 RAM, even on HTC web, gsmarena..and so...
EIDT: Sorry didint notice you wrote XL, its all OK
XL only supports 720p video recording and lacks a card slot. I have just got the XE and I'm super impressed with it.
i like my sensation don't think the other models are worth it.. unless you like red and the headphones...
I was always a Sony Ericson man, then got the Desire - fabulous!
Next I upgraded to the Desire HD and now have the Sensation XE - brilliant, fast, good looking. Great sound & free headphones. Amazing phone... go for it
Are you guys using custom roms on your XE? I should be getting mine in the next few days.

I have a bit silly question : Is there any difference between the Sensation XE smart phones from UK version and US version? or they are the same ones.
Thank you.
cm7 for sensation xe
Is there any stable cm7 rom for sensation xe yet?
if there is, where do i find it? in the ordinary Sensation forum?

sensation XE
If they are built with the same specs sensation cm7 should in theory work with xe version
Hey Guys
Thinking of coming from my old Galaxy S to a HTC Sensation. But there seems no forums for this device ! Can I use the ROMS here on the XE or not? I know it may be biased but there pretty much the same and I prefer the look of the XE plus those Earphones and sound! Is it worth the money to go for the XE model? and where can I find a forum to flash and root ect
Thanks
Kind Regards

Hi,
The two phones are essentially the same in the hardware department.
You can get all the information in this forum.
You can flash the same ROMS . S-off and root is done the same way HERE.
Whether or not you should spend the extra on the XE,only you can decide to fall for HTC's outrageous marketing scam.
You get a larger battery and a excellent pair of headphones. Keep that in mind

Hope to join the community soon and get a HTC Sensation
the XE is overpriced and by the looks of things the normal
sensation can be overclocked and preform the same if better!
I got the xe and tbh no different now the the guru's can produce great Roms you.end up replacing the stock XE Rom anyway, and most people have the sensation on here.

If you use your own headphones or have a separate music player and you are willing to buy the larger capacity battery (or anker) then yes go with the original sensation.

I like the sleek black look of the original Sensation more, but like the XE's official beats implementation + headphones.

IMHO the difference between the Sensation and Sensation XE is just the urBeats earbuds, ROM, battery and the battery cover - all swappable!
Where I am, the XE is now coming right down in price, to the level where it might be cheaper to buy the XE and sell off the urBeats earbuds, if money's really tight.
Otherwise, the regular Sensation is probably easier and cheaper to buy upfront and you can get the white Sensation XE with Beats battery cover if you like it, plus higher capacity battery etc when required.
These forums are great since we can get feedback on batteries, vendors etc and usually find the good upgrades.
I have the Sensation, white XE with Beats battery cover and am hoping to get it onto a reliable beta ICS ROM (once usable, HW accelerated and not crashy).
Let us know what you get!
I have a Sensation z710e - perfect condition/original box, flashed with ARHD rom to become an XE. Must admit the integrated music player is a bonus of the XE rom.
PM a price if your keen.

Agreed, the phones sound quality is pretty hot, and who can turn down a higher capacity battery with the voltage it's going to crank out...
XEbeats to be customised
Hello everyone I cannot see a sector for my phone HTC Sensation Xe....I can see the forum for the Sensation and for the Sensation XL.......The Sensation Xe It's not the same phone !! a different processor, different in many other features. Please make the specific forum for this phone ....It's not a Sensation.....it is a Sensation Xe
only the case is different .
dont worry, i have XE too. anything works on sensation works on sensation XE
It's identical to the Sensation, apart from Beats software and the processor running faster. All ROMs and mods for the Sensation also apply to the XE, this is why there's no separate section.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA App
its one back cover ($25), beats earphones ($45) & flashed rom from being a Sensation 4G
Size is the same so it is possible to flash the same roms that the normal sensation has.
Don't forget the red accents on the camera speaker grill and red LEDs. It also has a larger battery to cover the overclock.
I have a Sensation XE and its the exact same phone. Thought I did notice that the LCD panel on the xe does appear to be a little more brighter and clearer. Might have just being a defective sensation model

You probably had the sharp screen on your first sensation. Much duller than the Acer screen. I just got my original sensation replaced because of dust under the screen and had the sharp screen. The new one has Acer and I am way happier with it. Way brighter and more vivid with awesome viewing angle. Some prefer the sharp though.

Thanks for the info,
Have you ever tried to flash any ROM which is available for Sensation to Sensation XE?
and also can we use the How to root or how to flash.. procedures prepared for Sensation also for our Sensation XE?
Thanks in advance for your replies. Cheers mate.:good:
Yes. The two models are IDENTICAL. The only difference is aesthetics. Overclock an beats audio don't count as custom ROMs and kernels provide them.
Sent from my sleek sexy Sensation with ViperS
The reason the XL has its own forum is because
1)The XL has a single core. The Sensation has dual core.
2)The XL has a 4.7" screen. The Sensation has a 4.3" screen.
3)The XL has WVGA(480x800). The Sensation has qHD(960x540).
These reasons make Sensation(XE) ROMS incompatible with the XL.

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.
