Which of these two phones to buy?

---

I'm searching for the best replacement for my good old "Super" HD2.
I'm trying to decide between HTC Sensation or Samsung Galaxy S2.
Anyone can help me decide?
They are both very good phones and i'm thinking of trying the SGS2 because i have been a Big fan of HTC and Sence, but now I starting to get curious about SGS2.
Please give me some help decide.
I'm going to post this same question on the SGS2 forum to compare the answers.

Thanks

I think from this thread you will get everyone telling you to get the sensation and the one on the SgS2 forum they will be telling you to get that

I say try both and decide for yourself, after all it's you that's using it

From all the reviews and tests I read on the net, SGS2 wins all the most important ones, but I'm thinking that HTC is always a better phone for the future becose developers tend to turn to HTC devices more that others.
So I think that with Sensation I will get more costume Roms and more unofficial develepment.

For me the most important is not the present speed of the phones, because I know that will change in the future with new roms and costume roms.
The most important for me is the Costume roms support and unofficial developers support.

Got my Sensation yesterday unlocked on Vodafone upgrade. I have to say that after using SGS2 for 4 weeks Sensation is little bit disappointment. Available memory out of the box with no apps installed is about 140MB (compared to 520MB on SGS2). Can't get used to new Sense UI but I've loved it on my old Hero. SGS2 also is much faster out of the box. Sensation feels nice in the hand, it's more "solid" compared to plastic SGS2 but seems to be a little bulky and not as sleek as SGS2. One thing i've found better on Sensation is wifi signal strength which is really good. As i am quite impatient person i don't wanna wait for unlocked bootloader too. I'm sorry HTC, but Sensation goes on sale. :/

Bear in mind that is my personal opinion.

Edit:
SGS is very easy to flash, you can even unlock it to sim free with no hassle. Regarding custom roms Samsung gave free SGS2 to Cyanogen team, so soon we should expect some CM7 love. Also MIUI port is coming soon.
