HTC Sensation user reviews

Milkshake 14 June 2011

Comment: Most owners have highlighted battery life to be a problem, again another Android which i'll be giving a miss after ditching my Samsung Galaxy S2 for not even lasting me the day!

Good: Great looking, HTC sense, plenty of app choice,

Bad: Signal keeps dropping to nothing very frustrating

Comment: This is my first Smart phone and found it so user friendly, great screen size, great colours. Several home screens to personalise. Plenty of apps available via Market Place. Ideal for networking.Quick downloads.
Bad bits
Only got full days use from battery minimum usage.
Signal keeps dropping which is very frustrating. I love this phone but if signal keeps dropping i'll send it back!
No weather.........off to poke it

Forgot to mention..............Earphones are made for elephants!
HTC really need to pay attention to quality and detail

Comment: In this review you criticise the Sensation for only lasting 2 days, yet in the Samsung Galaxy S2 a 1 day battery life is not criticised and in the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc Review you give it a 'Poor Battery Life' negative and say 'The phone's battery life is unremarkable. We got a full day of use'.
I just want a bit of clarity as to be honest its pretty confusing comparing battery life as it is, surely the Sensation has a pretty incredible battery life compared to the other phones?

Comment: Reading about HTC Sensation and finding it almost similar to Samsung Galaxy SII, i personally would go with Samsung Galaxy SII...

Good: Massive 4.3 inch display, speedy dual-core 1.2 Ghz proccessor

Bad: Not so smooth sense 3.0 interface, thicker and heavier than direct competitor

Comment: I personally would prefer the Samsung Galaxy S II with near-enough identical specs, yet a slimmer design and a slicker interface. The lighter construction and massively bright Super AMOLED are my reasons.

Good: Nice Metallic Body, Excellent Screen Size, Great qHD display resolution.

Bad: Medicore Battery Life, Why Not 1650 ?

Comment: We Expect That Sensation Will Come Super Amoled Display With Good Battery Life, But They Disappointed Us, Accessories Like Headphone Must Be Changed Coz, For Music Play Earlock Headphone Like Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Nokia HTC Must Follow Them.

Othewise Performance Its A Passion For Android Lover's.

Good: Great screen,fast,sense 3.0,not so bad battery life.

Bad: Lack of accesories.

Comment: As a previous owner of an iphone 4 and a desire HD this phone had some work to do,but i stopped worrying after setting it up.
IT ROCKS! Great screen,ok its not a retina screen but still very good considering its extra size,all apps load up immediately with little or no lag at all and HTC Sense 3.0 is lovely to use,an improvement on old system.
Overall a good step up but not a giant dual core leap in terms of overall performance,well worth a look though.

Good: Looks great, high resolution, 1080p video capture, fast, new lockscreen

Bad: Mediocre battery

Comment: Currently using a Desire HD and tempted to upgrade after trying this. Nothing beats a unibody aluminium case and this one is even more stylish than the DHD, with a curvier design and thinner body. Feels much better to hold than an SII or other plasticy phone.

The QHD screen is a big improvement, especially on a 4.3 screen like this. 1080p video is incredible and front camera is a nice addition, even though I'd probably only use it for the mirror.

The dual core processor is a nice to have but the only place I felt a difference was scrolling through the app drawer, and I can live with the slight lag here on the DHD. Maybe when Android market gets some really good 3D games it'll prove more essential.

Sense doesn't bother me much as I use Launcher Pro and other apps to replace most of its functionality. Glad they improved the lock screen though, as I find app alternatives glitchy.

Not tested long enough to comment on the battery, but various sources suggest that it's about the same as the DHD. Which isn't great.

Overall I don't think I'll be upgrading yet but for anyone looking for a high end phone, this is by far the best one I've tried yet.
