Hi guys, I currently own a hd2 but i'm thinking of getting the sensation xe. I can order the original sensation for about £300 on Amazon, but the sensation xe goes for around £470. I'm aware that there are several ROM s for the sensation that clock the CPU at 1.5 GHz and give it a beats audio profile, almost making it identical the sensation xe. Would i be better off saving around £170 to £200 and getting the original sensation, or should i get the sensation xe?
My understanding is that the only real hardware difference is the more powerful battery in the XE. Otherwise everything is just software, which you can install on the stock Sensation anyway
There is a thread somewhere that goes into more detail what the differences are.
Well...get a HTC Sensation and use the extra cash to buy a good pair of earphones that owns beats. Root and install beats mod and it'll even be better den Sensation XE

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 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

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.

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
Hi there, I have on order an HTC Sensation XE White 4GB and just saw the advertisement on the website I bought it with the HTC Sensation XE 8GB version which when I contacted via e-mail, they told that it's the 8GB Internal memory version.
Is this true? Are there HTC Sensation with 8 and 16GB of internal ROM memory? Or is this just a marketing scheme?
Thanks

Who knows

Ah thanks, that's what I said when I saw it. My friend actually bought the 4GB version which was about 15eur less then the 8GB version. In fact, it came with an 8GB microSD as well, so they're kind of getting 15eur for each sale they do lol.
Just to confirm, I've contacted HTC and they also told me the same thing. This might be of help to any other potential buyer
Thanks!

They are all scammers. Sensation has 1gb internal memory. What ever they say its sd card memory luckily they are not advertising 32gb for 50 quid more.

hii folks , soon i am going to buy Htc Sensation . but i found two different models
HTC SENSATION
HTC SENSATION 4G
Is there is any difference between two ?
Can i use GSM network on 4G ?
Can i install custom roms which are made for Sensation on Sensation 4G ?
Same Questions for Sensation and Sensation Xe
I believe that the 4G is more or less the US model of the standard Sensation.
Sensation vs XE do have different processors:
1.2GHz Dual-core vs 1.5GHz Dual-core
and different size internal memory:
1GB vs 4GB

the sensation 4G is of US tmobile one...it is same as normal sensation except for extra antenna to support the t-mobile 4G speeds ..if you want to use it in india..doesnt matter what you got..as at the end we have only 3G
rgarding GSM network each model works fine ...no probs at all
as for Xe...except for the mesh being red..and beats logo on back..its the same as sensation but with overpiriced/hyped beats ear phones...the earphones are good but they are completely over priced
the software which supports beats audio in XE ...has already been ported to sensation via custom roms
EDIT: as for speed sensation XE processors are clocked to 1.5 GHZ and even though sensation processors are same they are underclocked to 1.2GHZ ...but you can over clock your processor using custom RMS/kernels
Also sensation XE got better battery than sensation
you can flash any custom rom made for sensation XE on sensation(4G too) and vice versa
thanku very much Prototypen and Ganeshp

Actually, I remember reading here that some people found a document or something that claimed that the fourth antenna on the Sensation 4G is for A-GPS. I can confirm this because I purchased a white Sensation XE case that lacks the fourth antenna and have zero speed issues. I have noticed slightly slower GPS locks, but only by a few seconds.
Hello! I just bought a HTC Sensation second hand and it has some scratches. Is it possible to put Sensation XE housing on it? I would really like to have that Beats logo on the back and the white aluminium parts. As I know Sensation XE has larger capacity battery. So is the battery bigger in dimentions too? And are the components different in matter of size? I just want to replace the original housing with Sensation XE housing.
Thanks in advance
yeah, you can, battery on XE has bigger capacity, but its te same size, so, go ahead..
HTC sensation and HTC sensation XE are basically the same phone except that the XE has a max CPU frequency of 1.5 GHz while HTC sensation has max CPU frequency of 1.2 GHz.
