HTC Sense 3.0 is a polished and user-friendly UI; great camera; good battery life; solid build quality; qHD display.
Speakers are too soft, power button placement requires some getting used to; the weight may be too heavy for some; 8GB microSD card bundled might not be enough storage.
The HTC Sensation is one of the most polished high-end Gingerbread smartphones that we've come across so far. At S$838, it is one of the cheaper high-end handsets around and one that doesn't compromise on quality. ...
