Hardware sensation and sensation xe

[Winins]

Do you change HTC Sensation hardware with respect to HTC Sensation XE or two mobiles have the same hardware?

Sorry for my bad english

Same hardware, higher clock for the CPU (1.5ghz vs 1.2 on regular Sensation), 4GB internal memory (vs 1GB on regular Sensation), slightly bigger battery (1730mAh) and Beats mod on the music player...

 

[Winins]

thanks, the roms of the Sensation XE can apply to my Sensation?

 

[Typhoon.X]

Dunno, XE hasn't been released yet, just announced. We'll see

Edit :

Here's some development on the matter : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261911&page=2

Both have 4GB internal storage, you just can use about 1.3GB.
Due to the fact I am happy with my Sensation and there are no real improvements (beside the cpu-clock), I wont change.

Maybe I will buy the XE cover (I like the design) or the bigger battery.

The beatsmod should be software, too - so we can wait for a custom rom.

According to official htc sensation xe page, hardware are exactly the same except for the bigger battery, red highlights back-cover and beats earphones. Oh, and faster rom.

Edit: I also see red capacitive buttons

Is this why HTC under-clocked the original Sensation, so they could release a 1.5 GHz version and say "look we made a new phone?"

They didn't even increase Ram... LAME!

I think it was because of the battery. Now when the new one has a bigger battery, they can use normal speed

Not sure if I buy that it was the battery.

1) HTC could have included a bigger battery with the original Sensation.

2) 1.5 GHz doesn't actually use that much more juice since the processor only runs at that speed under high load.

HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e

After upgrading my Z710e via "RUU_Pyramid_LE_HTC_Europe_1.72.401.1_Radio_10.58. 9 035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_214840_signed" (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559) my model number result as HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e. On hardware information, tab i'm seeing Processor 1.5 GHz dualcore???

settings say 1.5GHz, but actual speed is still 1.2.

 

[uelue11]

I would say both phones are the same ... but the XE-edition has a bigger battery-capacity + improved HTCMusik.apk ... oh and the phone color is red ...

You can compare it to samsung galaxy s gorgio armani .. it has just a special look

 

[galaxys]

true...wish it was 1.5ghz!

 

[gramma782]

get a red marker pen, buy the ear-in headphones, overclock your cpu and there you are.......sensation xe

The new RUU works with the normal sensation?i was afraid to brick my phone, so i didnt try it i guess revolutionary still works, because its the same bootloader or am i wrong? i dont want to lock myself out

 

[fishluke]

It's the same phone but they dipped the metal bits in red.

 

[Karooluss]
