Got my set at arnd 3:00 pm. intercepted the seller immediately after he left SIS HQ.

First impressions:
The screen is fabulous and qHD resolution is such an improvement compared even to SGS2's SAMOLED+.
Interface is responsive and smooth. No laggyness detected so far.

Web browsing i.e. page rendering is not as fast as SGS2 but I really don't mind bcos my primary browsing device is the iPad.

Lastly, HTC Sense really rawks, TouchWiz 4.0 is simply no comparison.

Even though some say SGS2 is speedier and more raw power, but as a phone and communicator device overall package, Sensation definitely beats the SGS2.

you sure about the bold sentences? I watch the comparison on youtube sensation is suckier than incredible..which I believe SGS2 should be superior than incredible..so how come sensation can be on par with SGS2 samoled?..

Gaining knowledge from YouTube is good to make some background study. But I've tested both, maybe not side by side but sgs2 screen lose to sensation.

Choosing btwn punchier colors or higher resolution, for sure high rez is better.

So , I'm confused . Some are saying it's the same as the Desire S , yet some are saying it's faster. If money was an issue but budget up to 2.4 K what would you recommend me to buy? I'm open minded by I don't like the basic Android OS . Really into Sense . Not sure about Motoblur cause haven't seen it in action.

sensation of course.
2400 can buy the phone, screen protector and a nice casing.

hey u u guys who purchase sensation, r u satisfy with it??
can u tell me the pros and cons as a user urself? i don wan a review from other ppl who review many phones but not using it.

i was user of iphone, incredible s, samsung galaxy s / s2 and now sensation.
so far, sensation has been the winner.

needless to say, everybody needs for a phone is never exactly the same.

for example, if u r a techno-geek and derives pleasure from trying out different roms, achieve orgasm by having a few more benchmark points, then galaxy s2 is probably the best device for u.
it is the fastest android device available here right now. touchwiz is crap so u shld change it very soon.

but if u r just a normal modern phone user, who wishes to keep in touch with friends and family and social networks is important to you, HTC sense on sensation is the definitive choice.

the differences in battery life, screen (one is punchy colors, the other has sharper display), video, camera is not too much and comparisons are heavily biased.

u must also consider HTC's track record of providing device updates quite consistently.

tried and tested on holding with either left and right hand, wifi and phone signal remains the same, not a single drop. I believe this each and every brand of phones do not have identical makes. Some might have them , some don't. So don't get worried over nothing.

myself also tried it in weak reception areas.
never dropped calls or wifi signal.

as apple showed earlier. all phones do have death grip area and it's not a problem in normal usage.
it is those ppl with NBTD that makes a mountain out of mole hill.

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.

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.
