Samsung Galaxy S2 vs HTC Sensation

---

HTC Sensation or Galaxy S2?

Torn between these dual core beasts.

Just a very small overview:

HTC:

Screen
Battery
Internal storage (1GB lol)
VGA Front Cam
RAM
Weight. 148 gr. Holy Moly. We should send the phone to fat ca...errr weight management retreat lol

screen resolution: qHD
HTC Sense

Galaxy:

All things HTC has red are better

The thing HTC has green

Easy decision for me.

I think Galaxy S2 is better.... at least in Korea.rep

sensation is running gingerbread..

@OP, C'mon there are tons of threads to talk about this comparison use the damn search button !!

Sense vs TouchWiz if a slapped on interface matters, sense is lovely! Hardware wise SG2 wins.

both are good phones and you cant go wrong with any. however. i believe the GS2 is better specd hardware. better GPU. better screen in terms of colors. there is no even lag in scrolling at the browser.

the only advantage you will have with the HTC if you call it an advantage is the HTC S 3.0 and i wouldnt call it an advantage.

besides. and the most important factor you need to consider. the HTC now is using a Locked bootloader. meaning you wont get custom roms for sure. and considering how the incredible S is been locked for 3 months now without any luck to open it. i would say avoid HTC phones for now

i will not even buy the HTC for 100$. locked bootloader = useless phone for me.

i learned that the hard way from the atrix. and never again.

Having a lower weight does not necessarily mean 'better'. I think build quality in terms of materials (partial reason of the higher weight) is another plus for the Sensation. On the other hand, I prefer the dimensions and shape of the S2.

Furthermore the Sensation's camera has an instant capture feature but the S2 cam has a pretty fast capture too.

Looking at all the + and - I think the S2 is the overall winner.

Very true, imagine when the sgs2 gets cm7 or darky rom!

It's blazing fast on stock!

I wouldn't want to put CM7 on that as the browser would loose any GPU acceleration and be as crappy as other dual core phone, I'll take it as it is with all the optimization from samsung included for performance and battery life

We don't know that yet, so far the benchmarks indicate that the Adreno 220 GPU inside is quicker than the Mali-400 in the Samsung, I still find it hard to believe considering the mali-400 is quad core, so maybe the benchmark is not up to date with quad-core graphics processor's.
