Yes, I'm a funny guy, but you troll are funnierrr... No roms to flash? That bored huh...and coming telling SGII can play mkv files.. who give a sh@t. A phone is a phone I have my PC and big monitor and kick ass graphic card for gaming and watching movies
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
@Alex9898 actually you are dumb...ugh no only a moron willing to pay 200 - 300 more just to play mkv at 1080p
[HTC Sensation] alex9898:
No, I say you can play a 1080p MKV AND display it on your TV. It's different you know lol.

And effectivly, you can do the same and better with your powerfull PC but... not with the Sensation because it is too weak lol (Now that's a troll).
[HTC Sensation] alex9898:
Where i leave, Sensation and SGS2 has almost the same price.
[HTC Sensation] Beowulf_pt:
How about the GPS?

I've owned the Samsung Galaxy S.

It was a total GPS fiasco. Never got it to work right. A zillion fixes and rumours. It was a mess of firmware and hardware design failures. Couldn't hold to locks, kept losing them, lousy SNR, etc. Very bad for car navigation, useless for walking or geocaching, etc. And I'm ignoring the lag issue.

How bad is the SGS2 GPS implementation? As ridiculous?

I was lucky to be able to return the SGS and recover 599€, I sure as #%)= won't be giving my money to Samsung again without being sure that their product matches the specs on the box (including GPS and functional Sat nav). Not that I'm a heavy GPS user, but it has to be decent enough... that alone might push me to the HTC side this time as Samsung's QA is definitely pretty lousy.

I did love the SAMOLED tho. And the audio quality on the 3.5mm jack. Excellent.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Let me ask you something, do you travel alot? Or travel for business alot? That's the only thing I can think of for using that feature. Even if you're at home you're gonna gonna have to tranfer those mkv files from your PC to your phone. And since you're at home you might as well watch it on your pc with bigger monitors or you can stream from pc to your TV. Damn.... you're really a Geek.
[HTC Sensation] chalid:
seriously, who cares? nobody holds pinch-to-zoom like that. what really matters is overall performance in day to day usage. and the sgs2 beats the sensation in that aspect easily. not only is scrolling smoother, but flash-playback too.

but ofc the sgs2 isnt PERFECT. no phone is. but nobody can deny, that the sgs2 performs better in many things (camera, browser, ui-smoothness, gpu/games, cpu, supported file formats ...).

gps on my sgs2 works fine.
[HTC Sensation] alex9898:
Effectivly, I travel a lot and I will enjoy to not have to re-encode my movies.

But I also have friends and sometimes we watch movies together and it's really cool to can simply connet your phone to a HDTV with HDMI and play some good quality files.

Actually I use DLNA on my phone to do this but it's to complicated, you have to re-encode files and find a TV with DLNA and you can't do that with 1080p video.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Hahahaha, like i said you're a geek
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Well where we live there's no SGII till November for at&t
[HTC Sensation] alex9898:
Watching movies with friends or when you are in transports are nothing to do with "to be a geek" IMO.

Re-encode files to watch them on Smartphone is much more geek I think.

But as I already said, if you want just listen some MP3, web browsing a little and play games, you must go for an iPhone IMO. It's a really great phone.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
How many geek like you gonna use that feature?! 0.001% Sensation can also use DLNA too but i cant confirm if it can stream mkv files.
[HTC Sensation] beWater:
I feel you are the one who constantly calls others trolls and consistently uses the term "samsux" and "hahahaha".

You know, you can be more conniving by not doing that.
[HTC Sensation] :
You do know their apps that play 1080p mkv kinda and you do know the sensation can play can do 1080p to the TV as well. It just can't play natively that's all both phones are good its a matter of choice.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Samsung = SamSux plastic crap, TouchWiz = TouchCrap

enough said!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
I agree that the better codec support for sgs2 and bigger storage is nice to have
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
If sgs2 performs better then how how come it did not peform better in that test?:p

gpu/games, are you so sure about that? because I read somewhere that many games dont play smoothly on samsung devices including sgs2. I think the sensation camera is better than samsung. samsung has jelly camera. I think you put too much importance on benchmarks scores. I give you supported file formats though and internal storage size. :rolleyes:
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
I just don't understand why samsung guys come in this forum and trash talk the sensation and praising sgs2 like it is better by far. Does it make you feel good about your purchase by thrashing the sensation? I don't go to sgs2 forum because I don't really care about sgs2 and I don't plan on buying it. Never even considered buying sgs2. If I buy the sensation I wouldnt go to sgs2 forum to say good thngs about it and say bad things about sgs2. So to all sgs2 owner out there, this is the sensation forum, so if you dont have anything good to say or you're just gonna say that sgs2 is better in this and that than the sensation, please take it to the sgs2 forum because sensation owners don't care about your device. By the way, I am not a sensation owner just yet.
[HTC Sensation] saveferris:
Oh dear aren't you a petulant child......the only fanboy thats here is you, get a grip, you're embarrassing yourself.
[HTC Sensation] globiboulga:
The main advantage to the Samsung for me is the good dedicated sound chipset _ >Wolfson if they did use the same as the S1. That and the extra internal storage means it's close to replacing my music player.

HTC are crap soundwise. SRS sound enhancement are ok; albeit still underpar compared to BBE.
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
I read a review of the sensation that says its sound quality through the headphones is excellent provided you have a good headphone. I don't own a sensation so I can't confirm this. I do agree with th big internal storage as a plus though
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
SamSux fanboy = trolls, dumb, ignorant, stupid, paying 700+ for plastic crap period.
[HTC Sensation] :
I can understand your frustration. It feels sad when you see someone with such a condition. Is this hereditary?

Please check with your doctor regularly.

Get well soon.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Thanks for the advice, tell the SamSux fanboy to go back to their caves then I will be cure. xD

[HTC Sensation] epsix:
It's go to you sir for for trolling in the thread that doesn't have to do anything with PLASTIC CRAP!!!!
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
can both sides of this stop.. gs2 fanboys congratulations you guys got a great phone... sensation fanboys congratulations you guys got a great phone... now stop with all this bickering and lets see real facts not oh i think or someone told me. i am tired of this sh!t.. and yes i am buying the sensation.. just cant live without sense and 2 i have a sour taste after the galaxy s 4g i spent 500 us on.
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
Didn't particularly want to get involved but...

So plastic crap in your opinion is the GSII, and your saying that a thread entitled

has nothing to do with the Galaxy S2....that makes sense...
[HTC Sensation] ujkadusko:
+1.....only difference is that I spent 500 euros on phone equvalent of Hyndai S coupe car ,this time I am buying proper car...er,phone:)
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
lol... i get what you are saying... and now i have a serious question. rom wise i see cm7, a partially working aosp and rehacks of touchwiz... is that what there is to offer for custom roms for samsung devices?
[HTC Sensation] :
Yes pretty much it's miui Samsung builds off its own software and cm7 when ever they get that to work. Samsung seems to take twice as long to get to a stable stock build for cm. I'm guessing the drivers most be difficult to work with.
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
What a ridiculous post. The phone's been on the market for six weeks. Do you really think a phone that has pre-orders of 3MM units isn't going to get development support? I'm sure the Sensation will get development support too now that the bootloader is unlocked. It's not going to happen overnight either. This thread has denigrated in to being totally useless. The mods should close it.

And epsix, one of the biggest benefits of getting an SGS2 is not being on a board you contribute to. I can't tell if you're really as petty as you come across or if the English language is a challenge for you. I'm hoping its the latter. If you're confident in your choice of the Sensation there's no need to harass anyone who posts something you don't want to hear. It comes across as childish and no one will take you seriously when you have something legitimate to contribute.
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
im not only going on the sgs2 being out for 6 weeks.. i was going on the first galaxy which has been out for a while and all i have seen is rebake after rebake after rebake of touchwiz which is cool.. just that honestly touchwiz sucks balls. and you can cry that the phone has only been out six weeks blah blah blah. its just harder to develop for samsung devices. that all i have noticed and i was asking a serious question.. not need to cry about it.
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
BarryH_GeG, troll troll go away we don't want to hear your plastic crap another day!!!!!
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
lol you are epic
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
We're not the one going to their thread and start trouble. SamSux are bunch of chest thumbing biggots, as long as they keep coming in HTC and trash talking they will be considered TROLL
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Also the reason why SamSux can't port crap is because SamSux uses the entirely different file system. TouchCrap 4.0 is totally different then the old 3.0, good luck getting cm on it
[HTC Sensation] Beefheart:
I can't stand Touchwiz myself, which is why I turned it off and used Go Launcher pretty much straight away. The good thing about Touchwiz is that, unlike with Sense, once you turn off the launcher itself and use a superior alternative, the rest of the UI is pretty damn close to stock Android.

Oh, and I have come to the conclusion epsix is a WUM, albeit not a particularly good one. I mean, surely no one can be that hard of thinking and still be able to operate a computer or mobile to post on a forum?
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
lmfao... a WUM... dying... this is more entertaining that watching a sitcom
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
What's wrong with me posting with my phone? Unlike you I have to manage my bussiness. But you know what? I feel your pain... got nothing to flash and bored? That's why you come in here looking for roms and start ****.. heh pathetic
[HTC Sensation] Beefheart:
*shakes head*
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
hey lets all watch the finals... champions league.. man u vs barca... not gonna lie i am a barca fan so i am routing for barca if they loose i will buy a sgs2 instead of the sensation
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
Yeah... me too, go and enjoy your plastic ugly phone. Stop trolling in here. You SamSux fanboy just prove my point. Chest thumping biggots
[HTC Sensation] FlaTEriC18041983:
*like* ;)

so you can have the sensation then, that was too easy for barça ;)
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
easy was an understatement... i was saying it would have been a little harder but oh well i guess the gods have spoken and sense 3.0 here i come
[HTC Sensation] epsix:
In all my posts did you guys notice, i never said the Sensation is better than SGII.
[HTC Sensation] boostedb16b:
so true lol... just you say samsux has plastic crap and touch crap 4.0.... lol
[HTC Sensation] illuzi0n:
i hear HTC will be releasing a successor of the Sensation in the Q3 of 2011 with NFC which would be a bonus :)
[HTC Sensation] daivik:
Yeah. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me! They come out too quickly after each other - It's the same with Samsung.

HTC Holiday 4.5" qHD - 1GB RAM (that is quite odd) - 1.2Ghz.

Samsung Hercules - 4.5" Super AMOLED Plus (amusing) - 1GB RAM - 1.2Ghz.

Although some say the Hercules is an adaptation of the GSII for "t-mobile" or something (not sure how the carriers work in the US, I just know some phones can only work with certain carrier)

However this "Hercules" IF release in Q4 of 2011 COULD perhaps have a 300+PPI Super AMOLED Plus screen - because Samsung are "reported" to be upgrading their manufacturing methods/machines to allow them to create laser based screens that allow much higher resolutions. OFC it's too early, but that's the logical thing for them to do, if the circulating rumours are correct.
[HTC Sensation] ashasaur:
Hey guess what! I warned you all about spamming and trolling in this thread...and well none of you listened AT ALL so...

SHIELDS UP!

RED ALERT!

Thread closed.
[HTC Sensation] pkilla:
The nexus s still has it beat...first to get updates and I think the super amoled screen on the nexus s

Is better then all that HD ****
[HTC Sensation] dario3040:
...blah......blah......blah...

In all benchmarks (even Adreno optimized ones) it comes at the bottom of the list, it looks like ****, it has HTC's horrible sounding speakers, and no voodoo sound.

And for you information: Samsung said on their official site that the Galaxy S hardware is fully capable of mirroring 1080p, but it has bandwith restrictions that cap it though.

...blah......blah......blah...

...blah......blah......blah...
[HTC Sensation] Vandam500:
Yeah they probably both will be but HTC always gets more dev support than Samsung ie. Nexus One vs Nexus S
[HTC Sensation] MarkusPO:
uhm, for phones this is horribly wrong. the sgs II is a 1.2ghz dual core a9 processor which will be here in may... some using tegra and exylon.
[HTC Sensation] sourabh9agrawal:
People who are tending towards sensation just for the screen resolution edge might have to bear with the lack of support in applications for that resolution screen and might have to deal witht the black edges.sorry if iam wrong.
[HTC Sensation] MarkusPO:
yeah, these are my sentiments too. and with these early dual-cores, well i don't buy it. there's going to be major teething problems i feel - and the specs always say "dual core application processor". i haven't checked out the details, but that sounds like marketing bluff and something is being fudged somewhere. anyway, dual core phones won't offer much for the moment other than increasing the size of your ego and bragging rights because you need to overcompensate for something...

really? a dual core phone means i can slide between android pages faster? it means the phone is going to run faster? are you stupid? i could do that on a 250mhz single-core processor. without the (very cool) features that android will hopefully include in the next release - the 2 cores are essentially useless...

the nexus s ticks all the boxes for future support, nfc, gyroscope, pretty solid guarantee of android updates - samsung haven't committed to a android 2.4 update for example and refused to confirm the sgs II would be getting it - if i'm spending that much on a phone, i'd like to know that i'm beng supported by the manufacturer.

as an interested android developer, the nexus s offers me a lot more than anything i've seen so far in the new batch.
[HTC Sensation] AllGamer:
updated the specs on first post
[HTC Sensation] EinPaul:
Is there any official confirmation for Gorilla Glass?
[HTC Sensation] devteam:
Probably been asked before, but would it be possible for Samsung to bump up the screen resolution? Or is 800*480 (or w.e it is) max for SA+?
[HTC Sensation] lorddart:
Maybe I'm the only one who uses my device to hold a lot of media (not even including videos) and don't think i could live with the 1gig internal right now running my samsung vibrant with its 16g internal plus a 16gig card about full. High quality audio and such. Too bad because the other things are irritating but that

Is the deal breaker it would be nice to get at least drivers released so we could get a 2.3 rom with working gps. If i have said anything that seems lacking in factual knowledge i apologize. The screen being lcd also would be tough to go back to.
[HTC Sensation] AllGamer:
count me in, i'm suffering on a daily basis with my Nexus S due the lack of microSD support :(

when i order the SGS2 i'll definitely get the 32GB version if available, else the 16GB version + 32GB microSD will make a pretty decent combo for me
[HTC Sensation] kwokwchoy:
Nope, not at least for another year or so.

Higher resolution means bigger screen at the moment at least. To keep it at 800*480 they had to increase the screen size by .27 inches.

Do the math if they have to give it a Iphone 4, htc sensation resolution!
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
Would love to get the Sensation. But the lack of storage throws off media hogs like me.
[HTC Sensation] alexinmontreal:
Unlocked Bootloader?

Has anyone with the Nexus S (Rogers preferably)unlocked their bootloader yet? That is the question I need answered after having gone through this Atrix debacle.

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] Intratech:
Thanks for posting that. Based on that post I changed my mind and will not be donating to you. Good luck and I hope you enjoy whichever phone you get.

Also, from all the videos we've seen TW4 is not slowing down the phone even on unfinished software. The phone looks so much faster and smoother than anything we've seen so far from any other manufacturer.
[HTC Sensation] sckc23:
I know benchmarks don't necessarily reflect real-life performance but its surprising to see HTC Sensation score so poorly on quadrant.
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
SGSII or the HTC Sensation? I'M SO TORN!!

I love both phones but for different reasons. I love HTC's designs on their phones and I've been a huge fan of Sense since the beginning. Samsung however, has hands down the best hardware so far with SAMOLED+, Exynos, and the DAC's (Wolfson Media Hub 8994 <3). Also, I hear HTC has the worst DACs ever which is a huge deal to me. So what should I do?
[HTC Sensation] teh_pwnage:
samsung is likely to leave the bootloader unlocked/unencrypted so if the DAC support is that important to you i'd say SGS II and wait for a custom rom with Sense in it

If i'm completely daft on this being possible let me know
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
Wow. One of the most active topics in this forum asks the same question or similar, yet you still open a most redundant thread just for the sake of reducing the reading you have to do and the amount of clicks on a computer necessary for the reading, all whilst sitting on a chair.... Wow.
[HTC Sensation] Intratech:
I hear ya bro. I have a massive music collection on my phone, loads of pictures and videos so the 16 GB on the SGS II will be welcomed.
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
From what I just read. it seems a lot of the potential customers for the sgs 2 are media hogs. :3
[HTC Sensation] Intratech:
Massive media freak here. I use my phone to record training sessions and study the video to work on improving my technique. I also use it for music on the go whilst travelling, whilst doing my cardio sessions and I also from time to time watch videos on the phone. Thinking about it now I might get the 32GB version if it's launched at the same time. Si wah mi a seh brethren?
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
Well you probably wouldn't believe me if I told you this but I it wasn't in the similar topics box you get when you're trying to start one. I didn't think one existed (silly me) so I just started this one.
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
Lawl, yeh, mi zee it. I'm hoping for the 32 gb model also, but it doesn't seem to be coming in the same month as the 16gb. T-T *cries*
[HTC Sensation] Virtue94:
Now THAT is fast. Screw the Sensation, I can't even believe I had a lapse in judgement thinking the Sensation was more or less on equal footing with the SGSII.
[HTC Sensation] Intratech:
Well den, mi mite need fi get a 32GB microSD card cause di 16GB wan weh mi hav alreddy full and mi mite need sum extra space.
[HTC Sensation] EleCtrOx666:
Look at my post:

BTW I Forgot NFC for Samsung Galaxy S II, where HTC Sensation doesn't have NFC.
[HTC Sensation] EleCtrOx666:
Wait ... What?
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
Same ting yute. But mi no nuh if only 48 can fill mi, so mi wan a 32 phone jus in kyase. Unless wah di reviewa did seh bout it can tek 64 kyaad, mi would buy di 16.

Anyways on topic, I see the sensation also sports a MHL port. Guess the galaxy s 2 lost the pride of being the only device that sports an MHL port.

I like the HTC body and some of their interface work but their poor sound and camera quality is a massive turn off for me.
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
True dat. HTC isn't known for putting in great cameras or speakers, or jack. e.g. Mozart/desire hd.
[HTC Sensation] shorty083:
I've had a couple of htc smartphones, and liked them, but I'll stick with Samsung, since audio and camera/video quality are important to me,

and I haven't had one really decent experience in that department with htc.

Aside from the resolution and maybe build quality, GS2 still owns it in my opinion.
[HTC Sensation] MikeyMike01:
SGS2 wins hands down in Display, RAM, Internal Memory, Weight, Size, and Battery. Camera and Processor are at worst tied.

It's nice, but it's not as nice as the SGS II.
[HTC Sensation] nomisunrider:
If SGS2 BL is unlocked it wins for sure. Word from Paul at modaco is that the Sensation is locked.

http://twitter.com/PaulOBrien/status/57824611701760000

HTC on Sensation bootloader: no changes to current bootloader security strategy. *sadpanda*
[HTC Sensation] android_master:
So SAMSUNG MOBILE yearly event will start from today in New Delhi:D,it's a 2 day event,we will know regarding SGS 2 launch & Price in India & in other Asian countries.:D

If they screwed up the launch date till June,then it'll be a tough choice as Sensation will also be available around at that time
[HTC Sensation] RedBlueGreen:
Funny thing is i understand that.

I think every one can understand it. They just have to read it out instead of reading it in their head/ reading it without even thinking.
[HTC Sensation] digitaldw:
In one of the videos the rep states that the Sensation uses Gorilla glass
[HTC Sensation] Kailkti:
Yes it is relatively easy to understand as long as you pronounce the words.
[HTC Sensation] FLAC Vest:
I'm going with the Galaxy S 2. Aside from the point that out of the two, that's the one that I'll be able to use on my carrier, I like the design of the GS2 more.

They both have amazing specs and I really wouldn't care whether which one I got, however I like the Galaxy S more.
[HTC Sensation] android_master:
So it seems,like SGS 2 has virtually sweeps away all charts for quadrant{the CPU, the I/O, and the 3D graphics performance of the device it’s being run on.}:eek:

SGS 2 {Exynos} - 3053

LG Optimus 2X {Nvidia Tegra 2} - 2471

HTC Sensation {Snapdragon Dual core} - 1163
