The HTC Sensation is practically one of the company’s flagship products, so it is not surprising that there is so much excitement surrounding the announcement of the HTC Sensation XE, the successor to the smartphone. This article looks at the similarities and differences of these two to help you choose which of these mobile phone powerhouses is the best for you.
What is added to HTC Sensation XE?
HTC Sensation XE has been designed as an update to the original, and it definitely shows when you look at the add-ons and modifications made to the original. HTC Sensation XE comes with a 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, a clear upgrade from the original 1.2 GHz processor. This makes it a faster and more powerful smartphone that can handle just about anything you throw at it. The battery has also been updated, and the phone now has a 1730 mAh battery that allows you to use the smartphone for several hours of talk time.
However, the biggest update to the phone is the audio. The phone now comes with Beats Audio, including a pair of amplified headphones designed by hip hop artist and producer Dr. Dre, and the Beats EQ profile. When the headphones are connected to the phone, HTC Amaze 4G opens the Beats Audio profile which allows you to modify the settings to choose the profile you prefer. As such, you get a definite boost in your audio that is tailored to your preferences, whether you like higher volume or higher bass. The bass in particular has been boosted and you can practically feel the boost when listening to your audio tracks with these headphones. Not only have the music files been updated; You are also given the opportunity to update the audio profile of movies played on HTC Amaze 4G, which means saying goodbye to little sounds once and for all. If you don’t want that extra touch on your audio, you can always disable the Beats Audio option.
What did not change?
While the Sensation XE is a clear update to the HTC Sensation, some things were still preserved. For example, the design of the phone is quite similar to its predecessor, although the Sensation XE now has some red stripes and a darker chassis to distinguish it from the original Sensation. The size of the 4.3-inch screen and the 8 mp camera were also unchanged. The phone also has 768 MB of RAM, which is also the same as the memory capacity of its predecessor.
Certainly, there are many factors that were preserved from the original Sensation. However, that’s not necessarily a bad thing, as the first Sensation is one of the most praised phones released by HTC, so bringing the features buyers liked is a logical decision the company made.
While similar to its predecessors, the HTC Sensation XE smartphone has several new things in store for buyers to make it a phone worth having. Not only do you get a powerful phone in your hands, you also get one that is optimized for music, so music lovers will definitely enjoy having this phone in their hands.
