HTC Sensation Special

[jolined]

Recently I've been thinking about getting the HTC Sensation or the MyTocuch 4G Slide. I haven't had time to get to a store to check them out yet. Which do you think is better? I found a 10% T-Mobile discount online which would help too. It says "Switch to T-Mobile and also save 10% off monthly recurring charges, plus get your initial $35 activation fee waived and FREE 2 Day shipping". Has anyone heard of this before?

Do you know if this is only good for new customers?

This is for student only. If you are a college student, you may want to check if your school has an even better contract with t-mobile than this (ask your school, not t-mobile, or search your sechool webpage)

My school has 15% off, and the rest of the offers are the same. Not wanting to wait for it to ship, I printed out the offer two weeks ago and brought it to a local tmobile store. They did the price match after confirming the offer on the phone with someone else.

I was curious about that. This deal says you just have to be a member of the site studentrate for the discount, and since you don't have to be a student to be a member, I was thinking you'd still be eligible.

Mytouch sucks & Sensation is the best thing out till the Hercules/SGS2

That's correct.I got the deal and i'm not currently a student,just a studentrate member.They didn't ask for my school Id #.

Ok sweet, thanks.


I'm thinking the mytouch slide because it has a keyboard. I'm worried I'll have a tough time texting with the touch screen on the sensation.

I was using the myTouch 3G Slide and thought the same thing. I've always been weary of full touch-screen phones without a keyboard, but with the Sensation's larger screen size texting on-screen is a breeze. Go with the Sensation.

I guess I could always return in before, what is it 30 days? If I don't like it.

Can you get this same discount/deal in stores?

 

[OberonSnowcat]

I used to run a Desire Z because I was leary of the lack of a keyboard on most other phones but I got the Sensation recently because I wanted a solid, one piece, device and the screen on the Sensation is big enough, though it still does take some getting used to.

 

[jolined]

Can you get this same discount/deal in stores?

I don't think so, not the same one anyway. If you click on the link I posted it says you can get it by calling that #866 number or there's a link for the T-Mobile online site

I got my Sensation thru Target online for $99...and only a $18 activation fee.

I looked the other day and it was now $119.

Hope this helps.

You can buy the same apps for both phones right?

Were you just upgrading?

Yep, just an upgrade to my first smartphone.

Got the phone for $99 + $18 activation fee, and my bill went up $10 a month.
