Hello everyone. After almost 2 years of having HTC HD2 it's time to move on to something newer.
I'm between Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 and HTC Sensation.
Both have their goods and theirs bads. Till today i owned 3 different HTCs and i'm more than satisfied. So i'm thinking for sensation.
BUT...! Samsung has a faaaaaaaaaaar better screen, more ram, more internal storage and better front camera.
Sensation in the other hand has New SENSE 3.0, better outer body (aluminium), HDMI and better screen resolution.
The thing i want to ask the developers is: Is there any possibility to port stably the sense 2.1 or even better sense 3.0 to samsung?
If it is, i'm off to buy the Samsung. If not i'll be with sensation for the next 2 years at least.
Thanks everyone!

Who knows? It might be possible, but I doubt it will be perfect or stable for some time (if ever even attempted)
I personally like the lack of Sense on the SGS2 I'm afraid...

+1 I actually prefer touchwiz. I find sense to be too invasive.
If I chose sense it wouldnt b the new one. Im a fan of nonsense
It is possible if the sgs has one.
The fact that Sense never appeared for the SGS would indicate that it is unlikely to appear for the SGS2.
I had the same choice as you but opted for the SGS2. When it came down to it I actually only really wanted Sense 3.0 for the weather animations. Which was not enough to overcome the points you mentioned which effect me much me.
they actually have everything running on the nexus s and sgs1 except for the camera and bluetooth i believe.
I was like you but HTC has changed from business class to cheap mass ware, they throw phone after phone on the market and never support one longer than some months (bought the desire and was all happy but then Desire x, Desire Y and Desire xaasdfasd lol, so many phones in such a short period tells enough about the quality and I still prefer quality over quantity), I wouldnt go for HTC anymore they just changed too much, while Samsung most likely wont let the S2 down for at least a year until S3 arrives...
Great! Now i'm more confused! haha
OK i'll wait for the live demonstration next week to check the sensation. I have already seen the samsung. Then i'll see.
My galaxy S2 and my samsung captivate gets 4 bars sitting on the edge of my end table close to a set of sliding glass doors, My girls samsung infuse also gets 4 bars in the same spot, My iphone 4 got 3 to 4 bars as well, My htc inspire gets 1 bar and sometimes 2, wifi signal is weaker, GPS is weaker, as well as bluetooth. Why? my guess is the metal chassis. Metal degrades signal. some metals are better then others, but all are worst then plastic. Just my opinion, ive has 25 phones or more since 1998, some metal, most plastic, but the metal always got lowest signal. Just what I found on my devices, i could be wrong
I will be handing down my Swagged out EVO to my wife and I will be upraging. Which is the better option right now the EVO 3D or the Galaxy S2? Or does someone have another option?
I am considering also an evo 3d. I have sgs2 and i like it. it could be nice to hear from someone who has tried both phone.

Well, your most likely gonna get a biased answer in this forum, BUT, I, being a huge HTC fan, but also an honest, unbiased person, would go with (as i already have) the GS II, I used to love HTC sense, and i used to hate touchwiz, but then i tried twiz 4.0, and its much lighter, and in my opinion, nicer then sense. Not to mention the combination of the exynos processor and the mali 400 gpu is better then ANYTHING HTC has to offer at this time. All they have is qualcomm SoC, and Adreno gpu's, which dont get me wrong are great, but they just cant compete with the current hardware in samsungs S II devices, as a matter of fact, IMHO, i dont think ANYTHING can compete. I turned down a nexus and decided to wait for ICS for my gs II, and I will not be upgrading until the gs III or a quad core sammy come around. Go with the GS II, from one previous HTC lover, to a current HTC lover, you will not be disappointed, Not to mention the Dev support for this device is greater then any other device Ive EVER seen. You'll be more than happy with a GS II. Please, update me on what you decide to do.
Edit: My bro has the Evo 3D. IIMHO the GS II is better in EVERY department. IF I was going to go with HTC cause samsungs went extinct, it would be either a sensation (dev support) or an Amaze/Ruby (best hardware equipped HTC ATM.)
First thing, why on earth do you feel the need to use so many question marks. It is a question, we get that or did you face palm the keys while typing?
My advise to you would be to go in the shop and test both out, see which feels the best in your hand. They both have good features on them so the choice has to be made by only you.
For myself, I have a SGS2 and couldn't think of myself with any other phone atm. On a side not I have never been a massive fan of things with 3d. I think it is unneeded for a mobile phone.
I played with a 3D in store and it's pretty cool, although I'm not sure how long it'll last past the first couple of days.
I owned the Evo3D when it came out in the US. The real problem for me with the device was the carrier (Sprint). Their service is beyond crap so I ended up returning the device more because I couldn't get reception. The device itself is very nice. IMO the Evo3D is probably the best HTC device out there with its 1gb of Ram and 1.2ghz dual core S3. I thought the 3D aspects were pretty interesting. I was expecting it to be more of a gimmick but it's the real deal.
Overall though, my opinion of Android devices over the last 6 months has not changed (and that includes the Gnex). There's the SGS2 and then there are a bunch of other phones. The GS2 sits perched atop the Android totem pole and no other device I've used has knocked it off.

+1 your opinion on the GS2.... But how could you say the evo 3d is the nicest HTC right now? The amaze has a 1.5hghz dual-core S3, 1 gig of ram, and HSPA+ rated @42mbps, and the rezound/vigor is the same hardware specs as the amaze but with a HD 720 display. The Evo 3d WAS the nicest HTC maybe back in july, but then the sensation was there as well, so i cant even say that with backbone. There is a new gen of HTC devices out now, the Evo 3D is a tier 2 device for them now.

Absolutely agree. and as I said before, Im an ANDROID fan, not a specific maufacturer, look at my list, I've had em all, from LG to Moto, and HTC to Sammy, if its android, ill give it a shot. (not including huawei or pantech) lmao
Hi guys. I'm going to buy a new phone because my Galaxy Ace don't satisfies me.
I'm a bit unsure about this 2 phones:
HTC EVO 3D or SAMSUNG GALAXY S2
I want buy htc because i very like sense, i like htc smartphones, it's quite similar with the s2, and have 3D (not very important but it can do video and photo in 3D ) and i don't have so much money to buy s2.
But if i want s2 i only need to wait more time. (damn money >.<)
The question is Performance
S2 is very much speedy than HTC EVO?
Write me a comparison between cpu and vga of this 2 phones please. Thanks!!!!
SGSII
EDIT: plenty of comparisons on the world wide web, for example - HERE
Or even do a search here on xda!!
Not trying to be an ass, but this question has in my opinion been explained substantially!
I don't have direct experience with those two phones, but my girlfriend has the s2 for att and I have the HTC rezound on verizon. I believe the processors are the same respectively for both, and I constantly compare our phones to see which is faster and tbh, there isn't much of a difference. Her s2 seems a little snappier at times but honestly, the difference isn't enough to make me jealous. If you like sense, I'd say go for the evo, if you want a larger super amoled screen, and feel like forking out more cash (I think the s2 is 200 where I work and the 3d is only 99) go for the samsung. Neither phone is a bad choice, and as far as performance, both will be amazingly quick compared to the phone you're coming from, and really not that far from each other in terms of performance.
Good luck choosing!
Thanks for all replys. I like this 2 phones and for me there isn't much differences. But i'm scared because i don't want EVO to will be lagger in game performance.
Ah, the qHD display of EVO looks better than the screen of the iphone right? I want a realy good resolution
Amoled is better than lcd but the resolution of evo is very noticeable compared to resolution of s2 right?
I think u should wait for a short time, for the news phone, HTC one V
Oh my god. Htc is copying iphone??? -.- My god... No microsd, need microsim and battery isn't removable. O my god. Why htc need to copy iphone... Looser...
Ah, this 3 model of htc cost too much for my money budget.

In my opinion the best smart phone in SGSII
I never liked the HTC phone . Because they are very rough

Huawei announced the "fastest phone" if that's what you're interested in. Rumor says it'll be stock ICS, and huawei is well-known for its low prices (though who knows if they'll continue that policy with their new high-ends). Seems to have pretty good resolution and size for gaming as well. You would, of course, have to wait till it comes out.
I don't want to wait anymore i'm bored >.<
I have decided i'll buy htc evo, because android don't need too much perfomance to play the mostest game right?
Ah, with ICS the perfomance of phones will improve??
I think huawei is a brand economic.
Please answer. This is my last question about ice scream.
im not sure that sg2 is best choice now. if i were u i would wait for sg3 (comming very soon) or buy s1. galaxy s is very good phone.
Hahhahaha, SG S is a good phone i know but updates are deads :|
And it will not get ICS... I trust HTC and i hope it will not delude me.
SGS2 is the best phone for now but HTC EVO 3D have same hardware and comes with a good software. And have 3D capacity. So i buy htc. Samsung have deluded me. Anyway the question is changed. ICS should not improve perfomance of all devices? So the EVO 3D with ICS should be very fast right?
Phones with ICS are going to be faster because of OS improvements as well as phone release time. There are benchmark results on youtube for the EVO 3D and any other device you're looking at. Based on the benchmarks, I'm sure you'll be very happy with the EVO 3D.
So, I have an Amaze and like it enough. Don't love it, don't hate it. I like it. I want something new though and I am tired of waiting for ICS to drop. I am thinking I want to buy a Galaxy Nexus. Am I crazy? Has anyone here used the Galaxy Nexus and went back to the Amaze? Or is something else that will work on 4G with T-Mobile coming out really soon? Carrier branded or not.
I played around with my friend's Window's phone on 7.5 and it worked really nicely. I couldn't find any "high-end" Windows phones that I liked that work on T-Mobile 4G. Maybe I should stay away from those. Thoughts about a WM phone or the Galaxy Nexus?
Thanks for your input.

edit: yes, you are crazy for wanting a overpriced phone that is already outdated lol
No you're not crazy man, Just don't switch to a new device just because it has a newer Android OS on it
and lol whenever i see the One S I see an Amaze with a new processor and screen
edit: Widows Phones are fun, I have an HTC Radar and can say that was a great phone, but its just too boring for my tastes, and the lack of classic emulators was disturbing, my HTC Inspire with similar specs ran an NES emulator better than the Radar
I was thinking about for a week. And finally made my decision. Keeping my amaze. The galaxy nexus is sexy but the amaze WILL get ics aosp and sense versions EVENTUALLY. Just be patient. I was looking at galaxy nexus on eBay and they're sooo cheap I was so tempted to click "buy it now". But the amaze is simply better except for the screen (which is arguable) and operating system (which we will get eventually) and probably running smoother than the galaxy nexus.
I'm keeping my amaze until around October

much better camera(s), much better processor, much better os, much much better build, thinner, lighter, much better screen.. I could go on lol, its definitely worth the upgrade (if you have the money). also all the accessories HTC is making for the ONE series is worth the upgrade.
If you don't have money to waste id stick with the amaze though since its not a bad device at all really. im probably upgrading to the Nokia Lumia 900 though I miss me some WP7
edit: how does nes run on wp7? is it playable

the galaxy nexus looks amazing, the camera is a deal breaker for me though =l
NES runs ok on the Radar, about 3/4 speed with the sound on, it should run the same on any WP7 phone with a 1Ghz processor and 512 RAM
and lol i read that the S4 smokes the tegra 3s so I can give you that, and I don't factor OS revisions when I look at newer phones simply because Android = portable most of the time nor accessories either. I just look at build quality and specs and work from there, for the longest time i saw "1.5 dual core, 1 GB RAM, aluminium build, no AT&T 3.5G bands"
gonna inject a lil bias here: I HATE pentile screens, everything looks like its through a fishnet to me lol, and samsung scared me away from any AMOLED screens thanks to their crazy color saturation
camera: More megapixels are great but how good the image sensor is is what counts, Amaze is better in both regards
Edit: call me crazy but I like a slightly heavier phone, helps give me a sense of how durable a phone is, even if it has nothing to do with durability

Yeah, the lumia 900 should handle it better. RAM doesn't really matter in WP7. i still would prefer 1gb though
benchmarks don't really mean anything. if the hardware isn't optimized for the software then the benchmarks wont be great. I would pick the one x over the one s anyday I don't like aluminum phones. I like polycarbonate plastic much more and the one x has that. i read somewhere that the one s will come with both though.
yeah pentile is horrible, i had the atrix. but, the pentile on the one S isn't noticeable at the slightness. htc did something, they wouldn't make it have a bad screen considering everyone hates the pentile on moto devices.
the one s, and one x have the same camera. the amaze and one s both have 8mp, but the one s has a MUCH better sensor, and a dedicated image chip.. i don't know what you're talking about lol, the camera flys past the amaze. have you seen the sample shots?
edit: megapixels count definitely, it depends on how you use them though. the way Nokia is on the pureview is great. will be the best camera on the mobile phone market. the one series will probably be in 2nd place and leave the amaze in 3rd

You're not crazy man. Lately I've been thinking about this too.
lol sorry stratax, I was refering to the galaxy nexus with the whole camera comment, I've been really letting my cell phone knowledge slip there after getting the amaze so other than the bare basics I really havent looked into the One series all that heavily, and i thought the one s only had the aluminium shell that was hardened with some sort of high voltage process
and I'm not saying that megapixels aren't all that important, I'm saying there are other factors that contribute to how good a camera sensor is, compare the same photo across all kinds of phones with the same number of megapixels and you'll see a clear difference in the quality is all I'm saying
that nokia phone is rediculous though
Nah your not crazy, I had an amaze with a custom rom but they weren't anything special but a better stock experience. I recently got a galaxy nexus and I love it. HD screen, quality 5MP camera, and ICS plus it has a bigger screen with on screen keys which I like better. Never thought of going back to Amaze, especially with all the roms, mods, & customization but its all depends on your needs

HaHaHa. Is it ever about needs? Nope. For me, at least, it is about getting something new and in some cases, having a phone that not many others in town will have. Before we had 3G/4G on AT&T and TMO, I was buying a new phone every 3 months. Mainly Nokia N series. Remember those bad boys? Buy it, swap out the SIM and go. Now with the different 3G/4G bands on the carriers, it makes it more difficult to just buy a new phone and be happy. This doesn't work, that doesn't work, 2G only, etc. Without fail, the "other" carrier has the phone I want. Then when I switch to get that phone, the "other" carrier I just switched from gets another phone I want. It is never ending and I still to this day have the itch to buy a new phone every couple of months. I swear, I need phone purchasing/carrier switching rehab.
I've had people offer their GNexus for my Amaze and I couldn't justify the trade. The GNexus has a better screen and it's a Google phone and all, but the cons of that phone are too much for me to handle (no microSD slot, terrible camera, etc).

oh I was about to say hahah. no, on one CES coverage someone stated that it will come in both polycarbonate and anodized aluminum. still, I would take the IPS SLCD 2 over super amoled pentile ANYDAY
yeah, the sensor is one of the most important things if you have a decent number of pixels. if you had a badass sensor with a vga camera it would look a bit funny lol. speaking of which, the galaxy nexus has crap mp count and sensor xD fail flagship device imo
edit: the most I would pay for the galaxy nexus is 300 and that would never happen lol
ive owned both the amaze and htc evo 4g lte
i notice no difference in picture quality. they both take great pictures
Owned both the Galaxy Nexus & the Amaze. They are both nice phones. However, the Amaze is just a great phone. I do have my complaints such as the battery and the fact that I am on my 4th Amaze (2 would not charge/overheating problem straight out of box, 3rd lost).
The Amaze has got to be one of the most underrated phones I know about.

I have both the Amaze and the Nexus. Unless Samsung changes how they manufacture their phones, I will never buy another Samsung phone again.
I had my Nexus for about a month when It started exhibiting the famous charging issue. I sent it in for warranty repair (ha), and got it back three weeks later with a note that it had suffered water damage, and therefore my warranty was void. Considering the fact that the phone was never wet, this had to be a bogus claim. I tried correcting this to no avail - it's obvious that Samsung doesn't stand behind their products.
I was able to pick up an Amaze for $69 through Target, and I'm glad I'm back with HTC. The build of the phone is so much better than either the Nexus or the GS II that I have owned, and the camera is the best camera I've seen in a smartphone.
The only negative I have regarding the Amaze is Sense - I would love a stable vanilla ROM that has everything working....
But I digress - I would not recommend going from the Amaze to the Nexus to anyone.
Well I am sure you have Heard of the launch of the HTC one X and Samsung Galaxy SII a couple of days ago but which is better?
Need some good research

I like both phones, and both have their ups and down.
I like both companies new iterations of their proprietary skins, Sense 4.0 looks great and TouchWiz (5?) has a bunch of new helpful features (and I like old ones such as swipe a name to call/message). The One X definately wins in the looks department but I don't think the SGS III is as ugly as most make it out to be. However I hear the battery life isn't so great on the One X, and a portion of the screen is wasted for an onscreen menu button due to HTC basing it on the layout Google set out (which is stupid I think, there's no reason to have a seperate multitasking button when holding down Home for 1-2 seconds works perfectly fine.)
All in all I think the SGS III offers more benefits to the user, even if HTC does win in certain areas (better looking, better camera, more refined interface). If I were actually buying one of the two I'd like to try them out side by side before making a final decision, but at this stage I'm going to say Galaxy S III.
S3 cuz of us storage mode and lte

I think htc is better software and design wise but the s3 might have better battery life and camera also samsung tends to have phone really lightweight but it just depends what you prefer : sense or touchwiz?

After using the sensation for about a month I had to get rid of it because of sense. I seriously do not like sense.. It really annoys me for some reason. I know that you'd probably be able to root it and custom rom the One X but to be honest i would much rather just go with the s3.
I would say the S3. I like every spec that it have. Im not going to say that the X One is a bad phone because it isn't, its a great great phone, but i just like Samsung more.

I like how Samsung is focusing on Software, why make a super pocket computer if you dont have good apps to exploit that power?
S-voice is something that should have been present on Android earlier...
The good thing is that is very probable to see all that software ported to other devices
I'm still very happy with my HTC Sensation XL, but if I would buy a new phone now it would definatly be the One X.
I was really looking forward to the Galaxy S III, but the plastic keeps me away again.
I think the design is just too bad and I've always loved the HTC devices so it wouldn't be a though choice for me.

+1 my exact same thought. except i would never get caught holding a samsung phone.
Hello guys.
This is something I'm wondering about as I'm planning to buy a new device soon. I love HTC's build quality and the Legend was the best looking phone I've ever owned.
On the other hand, I'm currently using a Galaxy S i9000 which I absolutely hated out of the box but fell in love with once I discovered the great work by developers on this site.
Development for i9000 and Samsung in general is very active here. Could an HTC owner please tell me how it is on the other side of the fence? My decision will eventually come down to the availability of custom ROMS from XDA.

Development for i9000 and Samsung in general is very active here. Could an HTC owner please tell me how it is on the other side of the fence? My decision will eventually come down to the availability of custom ROMS from XDA.

Another S3 vote here.
The only thing the HOX has over the S3 is the screen, and that's debatable depending on whether you prefer LCD or AMOLED and their accompanying traits.
Both great phones, but the S3 wins on processor/GPU grunt and software innovation.
The slight camera advantage that the HOX had has been demolished by Samsung copying it's main features and bettering them (burst mode, best shot, voice activated capture) - and Samsung cameras have always been pretty good hardware-wise anyway.
SD card support, removable battery, probably better battery life (than the Tegra 3 HOX), the list goes on - and that's even before you get into the software side of things which I won't bother with as I assume you have/are capable of looking all that up.

I'm still very happy with my HTC Sensation XL, but if I would buy a new phone now it would definatly be the One X.
I was really looking forward to the Galaxy S III, but the plastic keeps me away again.
I think the design is just too bad and I've always loved the HTC devices so it wouldn't be a though choice for me.

2nd times 10. Samsung phones feel so dang cheap you forget about what a good phone should feel like. I hated my GSII and went to the HTC One S and it is just night and day for me. I get signal in places I didn't before. The slim form factor and the build quality and just so superior. Never say never but I doubt I will be grabbing another Samsung. (Vibrant owner and GSII)
Obviously there is no perfect phone as I am not a fan of where they put the volume buttons and how large they are in contrast to the wake\sleep button but overall outstanding device. My good friend keep on about his One X and I see why. Sense has some really nice things about it. Twiz is the devil. Add to that Samsung's update issue and industry worse no looking back to support devices and that is enough for me. I am not saying they are wrong it just doesn't work for me going forward.
I really like the design & build quality of HTC One X.. Both are polycarbonate plastic but HTC did the right thing! But SGS III beats One X in almost every single category.. So SGS III for me.. I don't care about the design anyway since i will use casing.. lol
