[Q] Which 1 to buy ? SGS2 or Sensation

Hey guy im confused between two phones Sgs2 n Sensation
Sgs has some problems like Yellow tint , pink spot and some other issues plz can u guys help me in selecting the phone ? does sensation also have these kind of problems ??

Ummm ur asking in the sensation forum..... so opinions will be heavily biased . Optimus 2x user here. But I think galaxy s 2 is a better option. Sure the build quality isn't amazing, but the hardware will blow ur mind. Also, dev support is much better than what the first galaxy had, as cyanogenmod and aosp is making its way to it really fast whilst sensation is still bootloader locked. But I really like the build quality of HTC. I wish Samsung improved the shell of the galaxy series

SGSII hands down.
As for the built quality, I think a lot of people forget that there is a reason behind why a phone is built with light materials....to keep the phone light as possible. The rear cover on the SGSII may look thin and cheap, but you know that it can flex from end-to-end without breaking right? There is a reason...
I've dropped my SGS4G so many times and it endured...it's far from cheap.
The bigger and heavier it is the harder it'll fall...

After receiving my third Sensation yesterday and it having major issues, I would definitely say that for now the SGSII would be my choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The Sensation has the potential to be the best phone out there but at the moment the one's I have received have numerous issues.

I have em both, and must say.... The battery life is much better on sgsII. The camera(with or without high quality fix) is way better, no lag (except wake up 1sec) on sgsII, easy root sgsII. Build quality is almost same, if you think about the weight. And most of all screen on the sgsII is way better in all aspects. And in direct sunlight it rocks in comperment to sensation, witch is almost impossible to see.
For the sensation, the sense 3.0 is GREEEEEAAAAT... Lockscreen sweet, dlna is better. Its better in hand. Software is better overall.

Same thing I was wondering. The SGS II comes out in Canada next Thursday and I'm still going to be within my 14 Day return period. Its been like 3 days and I already got that annoying "dust under the screen" issue. The phone is great, camera takes crisp pics and all and Sense 3.0 is beautiful no doubt, but there are things that I'm starting to question.

when using some apps that use the gpu and cpu, the phone gets very hot, but not so much that it's annoying or a deal breaker.
i'm gonna sell my sensation, cause it is nothing in comparing theese 2. sorry HTC , i always preferred HTC, but now having my doubts.

Just to defend the other guy, umm no, cuz unless you drop from really high places which is not likely with a smartphone, the acceleration to max velocity will be faster with a heavier object thus you are wrong.
so! Physics fail for you.

I love my htc sensation! I wouldn't trade it for a Samsung even if you paid me. I havnt had any issues with mine at all. Had it about 2 weeks.

G2x Vs Nexus S (GSM Version)

I am planning on getting either phone.
Which phone do you think is better and WHY?

Nexus s. Pure Google experience. Get updates much faster, such as Ice Cream Sandwich. G2x seems very problematic from what I have heard. The screen on nexus is better, the only thing going for the g2x is the processor and slightly faster data speeds.

Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium

I've had the G2x i traded to the Nexus S
They're about equally matched
The G2x doesnt have reboot issues anymore (after update)
at first, when dual-core was bleeding edge, it had some problems
The screen is slightly curved on the edges
1080p video
Dual-core tegra 2 (my Nexus S outscored the tegra 2 in Quadrant Video subsection)
Screen is average
Less plasticy then the Nex
Speaker is not loud at all
LG doesnt give the best tech support
The Nexus S will get updates faster
No Micro SD (16GB built in at high speed)
NFC (Google Wallet+MasterCard/PayPass)
No 720p video
Screen is amazing, pentile may look funny the first 2 days, but i cant even tell the difference anymore..
Curved glass feels nice on your fingers
Minor WiFi reception problems
It all depends on what you want. I traded a used G2x for a new in-box Nexus S. I just love the AMOLED screen, you cant tell where the screen ends, that's how good the contrast ratio is

No, its an LG Optimus G2x.
The Galaxy S 2 is a GS2.
But thanks guys .. still wondering. Its hard when you want a phone thats going to last you a bit.
Heres how I see it:
nexus s: Better battery, better screen, nicer design.
g2x: Better performance, more powerful phone, better build quality.
So here i am trying to get convinced lol.

Wow i have had both phones & j was happy with my g2x after i learned how to root n upgrade to g.b. but the nexus is kind of faster. I think either phone is good but there's more dev & mods on the g2x.
This is because the nexus s everything works out the box.
Plus you know were gonna be 1 if the 1st to get ics.

Come back in six months when your G2x still does not have ICS. Why not wait for the nexus prime?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

i used tge G2x and currently now im on Nexus S. These are the reasons i didnt like G2x:
-Battery Life is not as good as Nexus S.
-The LCD is actually really nice and bright, how ever the pixel density and image quality are no where near as good as Nexus S.
-To be really picky, the phone is awkward shaped and proportioned, its too tall for its screen size
+every other reason people have mentioned, HOWEVER i didnt have a single known issue problem with mine
hope this helps

Dude, I did the same thing –bought a G2x and a Nexus S on Craigslist and have been playing with them for about week now. G2X, rooted and ROMed, is fast, stable and a nice looking machine. On the right ROM, the battery can last all day, evening with streaming music, calls and texts, and still be half full. The camera is fargging great, too. There are two complaints I have. One is that the G2x feels a little awkward in my hand, especially compared with the curved Nexus S, which fits perfectly. The G2x is just a millimeter or two too wide for a comfortable grip for me. The other is the ICS situation. I’m sure the G2x devs will get ICS onto the phone via Cyanogen or whatever, but because LG won’t be open with certain drivers it’s uncertain whether ICS will be able to take full advantage of the phone. Oh yeah, and the comment about the sound issue is accurate, too. Although sound clarity is great, the speaker is quiet – if you’re in a crowd or noisy room, it can be a little difficult to hear who you’re talking to.
Basically, you can’t go wrong with either phone. I’ll probably hang on to both until it becomes more clear how the ICS situation plays out and then sell one of them.

Honestly, I dont even care about ICS lol .. I just want an all around better phone.

See that is why ics is so important. The UI will be hardware accelerated giving you the smoothest experience possible. Hardware acceleration on a single core will blow away a software accelerated dual core.

I was in the same position as you a while ago. I got a Optimus 2X (AT&T bands) with CM7 and it just wasn't good. Short battery life, GPS problems, reboots and some other small stuff that made it not worth it. Switched back to my CM7 Nexus One and remembered Nexus is always the way to go and waited until I could get meee Nexus S

[Verizon] May return Nexus for GS3. Questions for those that own one.

I love the nexus, the prospect of getting 4.1 is exciting...I want that project butter.
Questions about the gs3 include: does the back light bleed through on the menu, back buttons, charging indicator light on the white version, like it did on my white galaxy s 2? My hands are average size, the gs2 was a bit of stretch to the top left corner with my right thumb. How does it feel to you? 4.8 seems like a large screen size, hence my previous question...does it seem overly big to you, in your pocket or in your hand? I appreciate any input about the real world use of the GS3, white or blue, even if it's not in direct response to my questions. Thanks!

Not to ignore your questions, but if you want root etc, you may want to wait until they figure out how to get passed the locked bootloaders.
In regards to your questions, the screen is huge, but designed wonderfully to fit in your hand (curves etc). As far as light leaks go, I haven't seen any on mine yet, but I haven't exactly checked for those.

I love my GS3 more than any other phone i've ever owned but the nexus does run a quad core cpu with 2gb of ram where the GS3 is dual core cpu with 2gb ram. Just watch some comparison videos and see which one you like better.

Nexus vs S3

I just ordered a S3 16GB. I have a nexus(not rooted), on Jelly Bean. I love Jelly bean and touchwiz looks good.
Just want to know how you guys feel, who came from a nexus to the S3. Was it a wise decision and would you want to go back to nexus?
I know a lot of people will say everyone is different and everyone has there own likes. Just trying to some opinions. Thanks!

A few folks I know had no end of antenna / signal issues with their Nexus devices. One had so many replaced due to hardware issues Verizon agreed to send him an S3. He likes the S3 much better, actually likes the touch wiz stuff and likes the camera, battery life MUCH better.

Have both use both but most of the time it's the s3. I battery life is awesome and AOSP roms are stable enough for everyday use. So the amazing camera and better battery life make it a no brainier. I just use the nexus when I'm filling frisky and want something different or new rom wise. Or when I go to the gym, since the audio playback on the nexus is a fair amount superior. Highs distort with the s3.

KLIPSCH Image S4's are a popular model of relatively high performing in-ear headphones...
BTW: I have a Nexus and just received my SGS3 today. The first Nexus I received had mad antenna issues. Verizon replaced it and the second one initially had constant 4G drops but after the Jelly Bean update, it's solid. JB didn't help the 1st one at all. Battery does seem to drain pretty quickly on the Nexus compared to other devices (HTC Evo, Evo 3D, etc.). I'll try to remember to provide more feedback after a week or so of using the SGS3.

the sg3 is 10x better than any nexus ive owned.

I have owned both, the S3 is better in basically every way, except I really did like the onscreen navigation buttons on the Nexus. Battery life is far superior on the S3, and everything for me just works. Reception is better also. Some improvements are really small over the Nexus, and I don't mean to down the nexus in any manner, it would be my phone if I did not have the S3. It's just a step up in most all aspects. I use stock ROM with the Apex launcher, as I like the stock android look. I am not ready to jump to Jelly Bean until completely stable. I am unlocked, rooted, running clean ROM 2.5.

I prefered my Galaxy Nexus over this one so far. It fit better in hand, looked better, and ran smoother out of the box. I haven't had a chance to get an aosp build together for this phone yet, but stock to stock I would take the Galaxy Nexus again now that I've had some time with the S3.

It is really disturbing what happened with the last Nexus... that name seems like it may just dissolve into just some marketing crap and maybe get you the latest OS when you buy it and some compatibility later but ... little else. Even more so now that there will be numerous Nexus devices so numerous flagships that aren't actually flagship devices.
Google meanwhile doesn't seem to care.

I came from a gnex. I actually wish I had kept it when I bought my s3. I liked the on screen buttons. The s3 batt life is better tho. Its not much of an upgrade in my opinion. The gnex was rooted and running jellybean. It was smoother for some reason. Now that I've used the s3 for some time. I prefer the nexus.

I too currently have the GSM Nexus and the SGS3 and switch between them swapping the sim. SGS3 impresses other people the most, but I like the Gnex a bit more. Damn good looking phone that runs so smooth. The 3 has more bells and whistles, but I don't use them much. If I could only have one, I think I would miss the Gnex more than the 3.

With my Klipsch ones and the s3 I have a little bit of distortion (almost a harshness of the tone) in the high notes. It's not evident with every song but if the tones go high enough it almost rings out. With my Klipsch s4 it's far more noticeable although honestly I think my s4 might need to be warranty replaced. Regardless it isn't there with my nexus at all. I played with them both on a trip to Chicago and there was very noticeable difference between the phones.

Are you tied to a contract at all with your N4? The specs appear to be better on the newer phones, but you must hold strong and stay away from hype and read some good Vs. reviews. Personally I'd hold on another year to the N4 (quality, solid, well supported device) and see what next year has to offer.

I understand on personal choice but coming from iPhone I don't know to much on the background of each device... On a general opinion which device has better performance base on previous devices... That's all I'm asking... I though I have the best android but honestly my wife's GS3 looks faster and better battery than mine... But I don't like the look and color options... The new HTC looks nice but I have friends that said the previous device are bad...

I used HTC One V, X and S for a certain period of time. They all worked without any problems, except for One V, that one was feeling a bit laggy, but it's the first device in the HTC One line and has only 512mb of RAM. Anyway, I would go for the HTC One

Stay
Nexus for is a good phone! I wpuld suggest you to wait to the end of this year (or maybe little more).

I understand but what might be a better performer for me may be different for someone else and previous devices don't matter, now is what matters. All the reviews online will help you more, trust me. And the nexus 4, HTC One and galaxy s 4 are all fast phones so it won't even matter. What matters is if you like stock android, if you like sense or touchwiz, if you're ok with a plastic phone or if you need a premium looking phone, if you need the best performer in the camera... there are so many factors here and again we all have different opinions, even some of us are having a hard time choosing but if speed is what you're looking for than the nexus 4 is very fast I can tell you that now.

Please use the sticky in this forum or even the one in the N4 forum for this conversation
