How do you tell? I know it TMOUS, the ring around the camera lens is blue, the phone is silver.
EDIT: LOOKS LIKE ITS AN S4...tmous ONLY DSITRIBUTED THE 24 ACCORDING TO THE NET
why would you get rid of a one S for a sensation? the one s is an upgraded sensation (s3 or s4, either way)
although that pentile matrix really sucks, its not enough for me to downgrade phones

I'd go for it then
No unless it had 32gb of storage. Assuming this is the t-mobile one s without removable battery and without micro sd card slot
One S... nope.
One X... sure.
The One X+! If tmob ever gets it.
Tmobiles not getting the HTC one x at&t is only getting it.I know it sucks.

And to get inferior (IMHO) pentile Amoled screen.
Neither One X, One S or even GS3 are worth upgrade from Sensation tbh. Might as well sit it out till Xmas or March next year. And i'd avoid tegra3.
There won't be anything worth the upgrade until next year at least on T-Mobile. Unless the OneX+ comes but it's not going to happen

Opinions are like... Well you know... And I'm offing this thing ASAP to get a note 2. Easily a worthy upgrade. As far as on topic, as has been said maybe for a one x but one s just disappointed the hell out of me. First smart phone I ever had was HTC and every one since; but they need to open their eyes. This year was an abysmal failure by HTC. Especially for tmo customers. I honestly want to know who thought no removable memory/battery was a good idea. When's the last time you heard someone say "this phone is great but I just wish they would lock the battery up and not let me expand the memory." Just because Iphone does it doesn't mean it's right. I'd be hard pressed to even find an Iphone user that didn't want to take the battery out and expand the memory. That's not even a feature, it's a lack of a feature. 2 at that.

I wouldnt lol. I'll still keep my Sensation and just get another device. With Sensation's removable battery and microsd card, my Sensation can be media device for my car.
The problem with the note II is that if I wanted a tablet I'd just get a tablet. Its size is just too large to carry as a phone.

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.
I couldn't wait any longer, didn't want to wait for HTC's 2012 flagships, didn't want to wait for the official T-MoUS Galaxy Nexus, didn't want to wait for Huawei's Ascend P1 S, even if it is 6.69mm thin. I decided to go for this phone, I'll have it by the end of the week. So, of course, besides rooting it, murdering Sense and having some fun with Virtuous Inquisition, what else should I do? I need some ideas, because once I get the phone I'll pretty much forget everything I wanted to do.
So, what do you suggest?
Case and a screen protector?

While having virtuous inquisition, flash HTC music app, then Beats. stick witch the HTC camera app, it's way better then aosp one. Also, I recommend flashing SebastianFM 1.5 oc/UV kernel. System tuner pro also come in handy to set everything up. Don't forget to use 4ext recovery beta 8
Try out the hypersensation rom. ICS + our camera + zero compression makes for great photos.

If you're getting the normal sensation you have to buy a bigger battery. I bought the mugen htc evo 3d 1950 mah, and it works great!
Sad to say but first thing you should do is see how hot it gets while running GPS, just to make sure it wasn't a defective unit like mine. Then obviously root, recovery, and have a ton of fun

Sensation = good phone with very bad battery....
Battery isn't that bad but the Anker and Mugen ones are slightly better. I've come to accept that smart phones need to be charged every day. Anyone who claims their phone lasts 2-3 days actually means "luckily I have no friends so I never need to actually use my phone" or "I left my phone at work over the weekend and amazingly it still had 10% charge when I got back in on Monday".

Not as far as I'm concerned. I originally bought the Sensation cash, then a month later I qualified for a free hardware update from my carrier. I opted for the Galaxy Nexus 16Gb, but after using that it for another month I sold the GN and kept the Sensation.
Other Samsung models may be different from the GN, but if the GN is any indication, the Sensation is a very good choice.
I can guarantee u won't be disappointed with this phone bro. The qhd display is an awesome step up from the mt4g. Im running ARHD 4.03 with sense 3.6, oc kernel 1.7 and all I can say is damn lol..

Man,you should've waited for the Xperia S instead.I myself am selling the phone after 6 months of usage because of the mediocre screen and speakers.As fast as it is with ICS it's no use if you can't use it under sunlight and you can't hear it ring when it's in your pocket.

They're not that bad. There's just one undesirable thing is almost every single phone of theirs. The Galaxy S II has a freaking HDPI resolution, I mean qHD wouldn't have killed them. And T-Mobile's version is tainted with Snapdragon. The Mali 400 is awesome. The Galaxy Nexus is nice, but the camera... ugh. I wouldn't mind the 5MP, but the sensor is awful. There's noise all over the picture, and the ZSL seems more like a rushed photo than a good picture taken carefully and quickly.

Well, Class 10 cards are generally better for large files i.e. films while lower Class cards are better for normal phone usage.

Considering this phone does full 1080p recording, Class 4 doesn't seem sufficient. I don't take videos very often unless I am travelling, anyway, so even a Class 2 microSD would cut it.
So I'm looking for my next phone.
I was all set to buy the One S but no expansion and removable battery.
The One X is too big.
So where do I go.
I want the One S but 12GB isn't going to cut it.
Whats coming and I am considering non HTC as I;m not big on the current direction.
Current favourite is Sony Xperia S but not completly convinced on this one is there anything coming soon worth waiting for?
Nothing in the very near future which would represent a noticeable upgrade from the sensation. Personally I'm waiting a bit longer.

Just hang on longer to the Sensation if you can't find anything. Mayne the SGS3?
If not, just keep the Sensaion and wait for better phones in Q3. Sensation is still a powerful piece of hardware

I was thinking one S as well but like you said the low amount of storage has put me off it. I mean, the non-removable battery I could live with but only 16 gb's of storage....HTC, what are you thinking???
One X isn't a phone it doesn't fit in many pockets easily far a start.
Nice screen for movies and browsing but a little too impracticable for everyday life.
I go into the highlands in Scotland a lot what use is 25GB of dropbox if you can't access it.
A mobile device is for when your out and about we don't all live in London with permanent 3G and WiFi hotspots around every corner and that's when you want to access the content.

I absolutely agree with you. My concerns are the same. Everyone around me was impressed about this 25GB of storage with dropbox and I know for instance Three UK offer "all you can eat data" plan but they are the only one (as far as I know) and other carriers have their limit. And not to talk about still having gprs and edge connection in many area what I can't even use to fart on it... Anyway, brilliant phone is the One X but I still love my sensation and I'm sure I will sit on this phone till something similar will be released...

After seeing the specs of the EVO LTE and the European ONE X I was greatly displeased and turned off by the ONE S. EVERY nextgen flagship phone coming out seems to crush it spec wise.
given the fact that i have had multiple HTC phones I have no faith in their ability to make a battery that is sufficient for the phone it supports. So to embed a paltry battery like the one in the ONE S was an immediate deal killer. Then to find out about the memory too...it was not even a second thought.
As for blaming HTC, I have seen the light. The new EVO will be a beast. There is an on board 16 gig memory PLUS its expandable for an additional 32 gig. There is also a 2000 Ma battery if I am not mistaken. HTC "can" make a desireable phone, but T-mo has not required nor demanded a game-changer or a true flagship from them which is sad. Until t-mo stops slacking we will have to sit out cycles (like now) or switch to other brands.
I think I will be sticking with my Sensation until Q3 or Q4. So I won't regret any purchase because by that time all of the flasghip from every manufacturer has already been released. The sensation is still too powerful anyway.

Get the GS3. Sure, there's a lot not to like about it, but there's a lot going for it at the same time. When people complain about the screen, its not because its bad, its just because its not as good as the HOX. It's still probably better than the Sensations (even with pentile it has higher density than Sensation). Also, both the exynos and s4 are blazing, and I can guarantee the GS3 will be much faster and smoother than HOX (even though HOX can also have S4, Samsung makes snappier phones period). The multitasking is the best I've seen, and the camera is top notch too. It's overall a phone that would keep you happy well into next year.
