That's true but can sum up some points which are agreed and encountered by most users.. at least something for us real noobs to be awared about hehe.. this is my first time getting an android smartphone, so really noob n dunno what to test about myself also haha

ill be getting 2x sensation today...1 for my brother and 1 for myself...will be COD-ing with bruceleestore later in the evening lol..couldnt sleep the whole night last night..so freakin excited

What phone are u currently using now? It would be good for us to know. At least we can provide you with a guided expectation when comparing with you phone.

The thing is, everything is subjective for this phone, only because the Samsung Galaxy S 2 is a dead close competitor for almost every single spec. It is very natural for people to compare these 2 phones. Hence, if i said, "wow the sensation is fast..." someone else might say "the samsung feels faster" Or if i say "the screen is awesome" then someone else might say "But Samsung's Super AMOLED Plus screen is nicer" U get my drift?

At the end of the day, you need to test both of these phones and ask yourself which do you prefer.

Its quite hard to convince you that a car is very good when you have not gone for a test drive.

i know this might sound abit silly.. is there any app on android tht is very close to the iphone's igun?

the terminal emulator said that my dmesg.txt cannot be found..

Just try typing 'dmesg' then press enter

After that send the log report to yourself via email. Then press 'CTRL F' and search for "Panel" If it does not appear, reboot the phone and repeat the process.

As for me, it did not show the first time, i had to run dmesg twice to get the results i want. And make sure the phone isnt charging when running that command.

Panel Type = PANEL_ID_PYD_SHARP
which means from sharp?

update from xda-developer regarding the screen. it seems that there are two screen manufacturer here. 1 is from sharp and i think another 1 from Acer. Anyway, they did a comparison and the result is in here

Correct. So far all reports here has shown Sharp. Over at xda, some members have other unknown panel maker brands. So now the question is, which one is better in terms of contrast and battery saving.
I don't know.

most of them does not found much difference with both manufacturer tho..both of them seems quite ok to me only 1 is more saturated(acer). It seem tht the acer 1 are slightly washed out when viewed at an angle

Guys try Elexir app..the power control widgets are awesome

Phew! Then thats good to know!

there is 2 questions that leave samsung fanboys staring at u dumbly (just joking)

a) samsung fanboys have no sense.
b) qHD. it's the closest thing to Retina display on android.

Haha all these while i've been using 2nd hand phones given by my family, now im using N70 n already having screen problem where sumtimes it will turn black/white

So i've been waiting now for once to get a smartphone.. what u guys really look into for a smartphone? I know it's about your own preferences, like nice display, nice audio, etc.. ermm im not really sure what i really look forward to, only to hope that the phone wont give me problems when im using it haha.. maybe i would start using it to surf web more, sometimes games and perhaps use it as my music device (with earphones), smoothness of the phone, user-friendliness, etc... S2 is tempting but i dunno y i dun really like Samsung brand, mayb cos i dun feel its interface isn't user friendly enuff.. my heart still wanna try HTC.. but could S2 be better?

@accelerator7
If you are new and wanted something out of the box to work well with you, I would say the Sensation is a good start for you. Sense 3.0 features and widgets would cover most of your daily needs. IMO, Sense 3 is better than TW4.

Audio (sound quality and loudness) and visual (available build in codecs) part is always weaker in HTC. SGS2 is better in this area. Plus customisation is abit higher in TW4 compared to Sense 3

did you all apply any screen protector? and how did u all manage to do it with the contour glass? please give me some pointers coz i am gonna apply myself

As far as i know when i apply for my friend's set the screen protector only cover the center flat portion, the curve portion will not covered.

No one wanna buy my sensation?

oh i see...i dont wanna mess up the edge with bubbles lol...
