[Q] Sensation Display vs DHD - HTC Sensation

I have a Senation device and a DHD. Both should have a 4.3 inches Display, but I am quite positive that the diplay of my old DHD is bigger.
Has anyone the same feeling or did I smoke to much weed in the good old days?

I held both devices (screen on) above each other and yes DHD has a larger screen.

The DHD's screen is a bit wider, therefore the Sensation's screen is a little bit longer. HTC has changed the aspect ratio to 16:9 for the qHD resolution.

Can this please be merged into one of those other threads where people care to talk about devices other than the HTC Sensation and comparisons and such.
Nice resolution and pretty crisp, but the colours and blacks seem washy when put side by side with my Galaxy S2.
This is about the sensation and the screen quality

I got these in stock today and after playing around with it I was impressed by the sharpness of the screen - when you zoom into the text it is very similar to the iPhone 4. The SLCD is definitely better than a traditional LCD screen.
I still prefer the bigger screen on the Galaxy S II and the screen just looks so much nicer. The Super Amoled Plus technology is far superior to the SLCD in my opinion.

Doesnt the sensation have the bigger screen?
I think SLCD is better because it can work well at night

So he have a GSII and a Sensation to compare and just because he prefer the Suped amoled Plus screen on the GSII he's a fanboy ? Does he really have to love a screen that he find weaker to not being considered as a fanboy ? I mean seriously just think a few more seconds before flamming anyone without any valable reason

I think it wasn't about him preferring a screen over the other but about calling it BIGGER when they are both 4.3"
Yes, they have a different area due to aspect ratios but lets face it, the difference is almost negligible and many people don't even understand the difference, they just understand 4.3

The fact is that though the sensation should have a larger display due to 16:9 ratio. Vertically and landscape.

Yes and no. Larger area=definitely
Wider=yes
Longer=no
Remember, the more square a quadrilateral the greater the area for the same diagonal. But some people don't see that.
And as I said, some people don't look past the 4.3" or only focus on one of the dimensions. I didn't say he was right in his comment, just that I didn't think he was bashing on Stesa for liking the Samsung screen more, but rather because his statement of a larger screen APPEARS to be frivolous if you only consider the 4.3 (though Stesa is perfectly correct in saying it is bigger).
Its a personal preference, I have Nexus One and love the Amoled Screen, I have seen SAMOLED and SAMOLED + u wont see a lot of difference except brightness when going from Nexus One. Also OLED isnt really a mature tech yet, It needs a lot of generations to reach a perfectly good place. Has many issues right now though it looks beautiful

(Q) Does this screen seem smaller then other 4.3 inch screens?

after having a hd2 for so long it seems that the sensation screen is a tad bit smaller. Not sure if its the slim body styling but even compared to the Evo it seems a little skinnier in width! what do you guys think?
Felt smaller to me also but who knows..
I don't think it's so much that the screen is smaller, but more so that the phone is smaller. There is a lot less around the screen than what is on the other 4.3" screen phones. This makes the phone seem smaller than what it really is. HTC did a great job in making a larger screen phone seem like a smaller phone.
yes this is my thinking also in that the body is more tapered to the screen verses previous 4.3 models
Yeah it feels slim allright! A lot slimmer than DHD. But I do think the screen is a bit narrower in width but a little taller in length compared to DHD.
I compared my sensation to my friends desire hd and the sensation's screen is much taller and the desire hd's is much wider.
the dimensions of the two screens are a little different. the HD2 WVGA resolution makes it a little wider than the qHD of the Sensation but they both still have a diagonal length of 4.3"
Guys it's all in the aspect ratio. Your DHD was 5:4 your Sensation is 16:9 just like your widescreen TV
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_hd-3468.php
"Dimensions 123 x 68 x 11.8 mm "

"Dimensions 126.1 x 65.4 x 11.3 mm"

Remember not all 4.3" screens are actually 4.3". Some are a touch larger or smaller but "round off" to 4.3". My HD2's screen is the same height as my Sensation but wider. The HD2 was always a large screen. Compared to some other 4.3" screens they are not as tall as the Sensation but wider.
Either way I love the screen and qHD.
Oops... This point was made a couple of posts up. I believe the S4G is at a screen ratio which if different than the other 4.3 screens. Maybe 16:9 which would make it narrower.

Its smaller by an inch or more width wize.. but horizontally, its 4.3 inches. Personally, i would have loved it to be the full size of the evo but because its qhd and has a 16:9 aspect ratio, its sqeezed a lil but its still a 4.3 phone.. its pretty sexy
I'm liking the size just fine. My HD2 seemed just a tad bit fat, but this unit feels perfect enough to touch everything with just one hand (that's what she said).

Thanks for three clarification. I knew I wasn't insane I've used an evo before and I knew the screen seemed bigger.

My HD2 WAS perfect, the screen is a tad smaller in width but like everyone has said the clarity and brightness make up for it
I'm still trying to get used to the feel of the Sensation in my hand. Coming from the monster HD2, this phone feels tiny, but the screen is just taller and slimmer. I'll get used to it.

Sensation vs G2X Screen contrast?

hello, I switched from a G2X to a sensation. My sensation is made in China, AUO screen, dated 6/7. Now I see people saying Sharp screens have better contrast, better black. In comparison, my G2x definitely has better screen contrast and darker blue. in terms of Whites, whites are as white as the G2x in the sensation.
I want to ask you guys, what is your sensation's color contrast like comparing to a G2X? please also state your Screen (AUO or sharp)
I have a sharp screen, it's considerably better than my g2x

How do you tell what screen you have?
I have a Sharp screen and a G2X. The blacks are blacker on my G2X but I could give two ****s which display on my mobile device has better contrast. Now if you asked me if I cared about contrast on my 4 LED Samsungs than yes, I do care about contrast and dark blacks on my HD TV'S. I am failing to understand why people care so much about contrast on mobile devices. People should be caring more about text clarity and brightness in direct sunlight. In both of those categories, my Sensation blows the daylight out of my G2X. When reading or looking at icons on my G2X after looking at my Sensation for a while, the display on it looks fuzzy. Seriously, the Sensations display pros far outweigh the G2X pros.

Once again, ill have to disagree, simply because the g2x's maximum brightness is much better than the sensation. I put both devices at 40%, and the g2x blew it out the water...

It depends on what panel you have. Why would you only put them to 40% when using it in direct sunlight? I have held them next to each other in direct sunlight, both at 100% and the Sensation is much more clearer. I can take a picture or make a video if you don't want to believe me. Even in a picture, the difference is noticeable.

I have an AUO screen and it's fine. The blacks can be just a bit dull but I mean, the viewing angles really are amazing. If I look on from literally 179° I barely notice any color change.

well more contrast is more pleasant to the eyes. to each his own though, I would prefer the bigger screen of the sensation over G2x.

Interesting post.
I was doubting between getting a Sensation or a G2x, and finally bought a Sensation because of Sense and built quality. Well, I compared my old's HTC legend Amoled screen with Sensation's, and with the device in front of me, both are similar, but when the phones are for example in the car near to the radio (using them as GPS) and I have to look from a distance, legends screen is much better. Of course, I prefer Sensation's because of the size and the resolution, but legend's is easier to look from the distance (more color, light and angle vision)
I suposse G2x's is much better than legend's.
Just an opinion.

[Q] Desire S screen

Hi was thinking of getting the desire S. I use to have the original desire (amoled).
Does the screen completely wash out under bright sunlight like the original desire?
Pretty much

Yes, unless at extreme high brightness, but is better than original desire as screen its s-lcd rather than just lcd

In direct sunlight almost nothing is visible. But my brightness set at 50% value.
Does any phone not washout in bright sunlight?

[Q] Nexus One replacement

Hi,
what phone would you recommend as a N1 replacement.
I basically would want a N1 that weights less and has a real multi-touch screen. Do not need more power or bigger screen.
Only things:
- at least 720p video recording (smooth )
- lighter than the N1
- real Multi-touch
- (longer battery life)
Any recommendations?
Nexus S? They're bargaintastic at the moment and even better if you can get the SAMOLED version where you are.
