With the My Touch 4g I'm sure you MT4G users will remember the good screen/bad screen issue. Where one lcd panel was made by sony, and the other was made by sharp. The Sharp lcd screen would wash out more on an angle than the sony. I have read some people speculate that the sensation might have the same "issue"
It has been confirmed that the Sensation has two different LCD panels. One made by Acer (AUO) and one made by sharp. The sensation does not have a good screen bad screen issue. Some people prefer the acer screen and others prefer the sharp. I have had both and they both are really beautiful displays. You can only really tell the difference if they are side by side.
To find out which panel you have:
Use terminal emulator (free from the market) and run the command dmesg (root is not needed obviously)
it will output a bunch of stuff.. look for this line and report it: (if you can't find it you can long press on the output in terminal emulator copy all and then paste it into an email and send it to yourself)
just look for the line (the numbers might not be the same) [ 9178.895111] Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_??????
Mine is sharp so my line is Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_SHARP
If you have searched and can't find reboot and try again.
Pics I took of the two side by side:

Acer, ghosting and slight screen flicker. In the middle of dealing with htc UK over the issue. Telling me to try a factory reset.... Jesus! My friend has a sharp screen on his and it looks perfect to me.

Let me know how you get on.
Mine one is AUO_NT.....& it's Damn Awesome
Most Europe and US Edition are AUO
Most Asia Edition are Sharp
Kazi639, No ghosting? Try settings > wireless networks and scroll up and down. Mines looks horrible when I do this. It's only really noticeable on black background.

AUO isn't bad. Neither display is perfect they both have their pros and cons.
Mine is Sharp,white Sensation XE bought in Europe
I had both, and I like both. Suo has brighter colors and the actual display is more bright as well.
Sharp, is more sharp but it's brightness is much lower.
So both have Pros and Cons like Sdobron said.

OK, because I've only had the phone 28 days t-mobile are sending me a replacement. Just need to cross my fingers that it has a sharp screen. If t-mobile didn't change it htc UK were willing to look at it and change the screen if "the engineer agrees the screen is faulty".
My friend has the xe with a sharp screen, I will make a video with them side by side to highlight the difference and post a link here.

Hello,
my 2-days old HTC Sensation XE has dust under the screen. It's not so much, but could I get a replacement or do they just clean the screen (which would doesn't fix the problem)?
And could you recommend me a good case for this phone to prevent for new dust?
Best regards

Send it back and get it fixed. When mine was fixed, I saw in the list of things fixed that they used some kind of lamination which i guess is to protect against dust getting in again.
I sent mine back and had a replacement screen. Was a pain.

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.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
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.

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.

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.

But so what? As long as HTC sells it for the same price as the black version everything is fine, isnt it?

It looks far better in this colour scheme than the original did.
It's not a bad price either.

Senstation XE by default has 1080p @ 30fps.

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.

I have quick question the Battery Back Door Cover from sensation 4g/xe fits on the normal sensation (europe)? What's with antena it will work good ?
And what's the difference between this two :

?
Yes it will work, and the only difference between the two is the addition of beats logo in the first one.

I'm wondering if these replacement back covers got metal at all? or if they're just plastic... it's always hard to find out
you can always ask before you get them. i ordered white one from ebay and they told me its same as original with 2 plastic parts and core from metal

Most important... was it correct when you recieved it?
we will see i ordered it before 3 days it will take some time to get to serbia
I've got the white one but the problem with it is that you can easily see the dirt and if your hands have anything on them, even small marks of pen, they get put onto the white parts
