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.

Sensation XE has same hardware as the sensation, except a bigger battery. Read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861.

Hi all. I just want to know are there any hardware differences between htc sensation and sensation XE. Is the same CPU? What about the speaker?

Better processor better sound...that is all.

More ROM, bigger battery and the processor is running at 1.5GHz (not underclocked at 1.2GHz like the normal Sensation)...

From what I have read, its the same phone except they didnt underclock it. Exact same processor running at its normal speed. This can be done by rooting...
I say buy the regular sensation (unless the XE release is free from the dust problem) and then root the phone.

No. The xe has a new sound enhancement through software. But root users are already taking advantage of this.

It's basically the same phone with red details on the case, and not downclocked to 1.2Ghz, with a higher capacity battery to compensate the higher speed on cpu.
If you must buy the phone take the XE, if you have already a sensation, a custom rom will do the work, an upgrade will not give benefits over a rom and is a waste of money (IMHO)

It's not a best processor, both the XE and the normal version have an Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8260. And would be nice to say "better equalization" instead of "better sound", and it's achievable from the normal ones just installing the apposite mod.
The real improvements are a more powerful battery and the better headphones. Neither more, nor less.
Aside from the bigger battery the XE ain't got new hardware.

Would anyone know if the XE will come with the same dust problems or if modifications to glue or screen will have been made...?
The new sensations being shipped us supposed to have the bigger battery and the 1.5 overclock.

Yeah they just over clocked this like me. So I got an XE. ;-)

I personally don't like the red details on the new case, so i'm happy with my normal Sensation and a custom ROM that gives nearly all the same additions.

The sound is not better, its just a retarded gimmick eq. Trust me.
Same device compare here, XE has Oced CPU, larger ROM and battery, however, stated specs of XE accessible ROM state 1000mib and standard Sensation 550mib. Dont know about the rest of you but I have at least 1000mib accessible ROM in Sensation.
Somebody know how much the XE headphone cost separately?

The headphones are the equivelent of Monster iBeats, which I believe retail at £79.99 in most stores. Might get them cheaper online though.

I have been running with the EVO3D battery since my purchase back in June. 1720 or so?
So I'm unfamilar with current prices compared to an older phone/new release.
This is only said if price is a concern.
Enjoy,
I read somewhere that the sensation XE has a slightly larger battery (by 0.3 cm i think) .. can someone confirm this piece of information ?
EVO 3D, XE battery, Anker (sensation) battery and Chichitec (1900 sensation) battery works...
hope it helps
thank you all for clearling this for me i realy appricate it
beside im thinking of buying evo 3d battery for htc sensation
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

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 specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_sensation-3875.php
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.

I wish I got the sensation now tho. My Mrs has stolen my headphones

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.

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.

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
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.
