That battery is a bummer. 1800 non-removable, and I was looking forward to wait the Beats flagship would be like. I’m still gonna wait for the GS3, nothing to impressive here. I was actually hoping after last years phones, HTC would be improving on battery life.

I would almost get this device if it wasn’t for: the hardware buttons, HTC sense, battery life and the position of the headphone jack input (that should be at the bottom)

So to calm the nerves of paranoid fans who are complaining that there isn’t an LTE version of the device. There will be. The truth is that the NVidea Tegra 3 didn’t support LTE until just recently. So when a version hits the US, there will be an LTE version.

However, adding LTE to a device isn’t easy. A phone works for months in the carrier test labs and it may delay the launch of an LTE version of the phone in the US. However, this is an NVIDEA problem, not an OEM issue.

Everyone in the US needs to keep in mind that most of the world runs on HSPA+, not LTE. Europe hasn’t adopted LTE except for a few small markets and most of Asia is not LTE.

Mobile World Congress is mainly a global forum, not an American one like CTIA.

My “complaints”.

1) Why hardware buttons on front? Those should be software.
2) I like the 32GB of storage, but why not have 16/32/64GB versions? Also, toss in an microSD slot, that can sport the 64GB microSD’s that are out there. (So, you can have a total of 128GB storage capacity)
3) I can’t tell by above, but why not make 1 version that is BOTH CDMA/GSM? 1 phone that can be on MULTIPLE carriers. No need to make “extra versions” for each carrier.
4) Battery 1800 mAh. Why not make it at least 2000 mAh. Maybe 2500 or 3000 mAh. or 3300 mAh to match the Droid RAZR.
5) Also, take the HTC off the front. To either make the display larger or phone smaller.

WINDOWS. With software buttons, you could make 1 phone that can run BOTH Windows and Android. Maybe, not at the same time. You could have a Windows version and an Android version. What does this do? It saves COST because you designed one phone that can do both, than two phones that can only do one thing.

and if they really want to, there could be a webOS version. (if HP is allowing licensing)

The most important thing is: MAKE ONE PHONE THAT CAN RUN AND IS OFFERED ON MULTIPLE CARRIERS. I hate how if you want a Droid RAZR, you have to go with Verizon. I hate how if you want an HTC Titan, you have to go with At&t. etc.. Why not make an Droid RAZR, Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S II, HTC Titan, Nokia Lumia 710/800/900, etc… that can run on all the networks? 1 phone, that you can (literally) switch carriers without a problem and that are offered on all carriers as well? But that will never happen, because the carriers hate that. People would go with the best carrier, not go with the carrier with the best phones or a particular version.

I’ve had a Sensation 4G for a year now and I’ve had no problems with it. Considering nearly 500 people gave it the same rating I would give it (4.25/5) on TMO’s site and 4.4/5 on Wirefly’s site. I would say that most people did not have the experience you did.

21MBps because Europe isn’t LTE yet. Also because the chipset isn’t LTE ready. The HTC One XL will be LTE capable.

Remember, MWC is a global launch platform, not an American one.

@Chris Google decided it was a fantastic idea to not let the launcher be protected from being removed from memory anymore starting in Gingerbread. Make sure you send them a little hate too since ultimately they caused all of the problems you had.

I’m guessing you didn’t know that the Tegra 3 chip has the ability to analyze the screen dynamically then figure out when it can open up the pixels and turn down the backlight to give you the exact same image with less power consumption.

I have an Evo 3D and I can assure you that 1 GB of RAM is more than enough RAM to run Sense 3.5… if you have problems, they were device specific, my Evo 3D runs smooth as butter

I’m lying? Let me tell you a story about my Sensation. EVERY time I installed an app from the market Sense soft reset itself (white HTC screen, then loading circle, then home screen reload). Every time I updated an app, every time I surfed the web, every time I played a game, about half the time I used the FB app, most of the time I used my RSS reader, and about 50% of the time I used any other apps….Sense reset. The MOST free RAM I ever saw in the task killer was about 85mb. That was with no widgets and all animations turned off. Also, I thought my original one was defective because of it, so I took it back. In the first month I had THREE of them, and all of them did the same thing. I kept it for 6 months until I couldn’t deal with it anymore. I bought a Galaxy Nexus a couple weeks ago and I couldn’t be happier. The Sensation was the worst Android device I’ve ever experienced…and I’ve had 8 different Android devices so far. I’m not lying or making anything up, this happened, it happened often and I’m glad that phone is out of my life. My gf has a MyTouch 4G Slide with Sense 3.0 and hers is doing the same thing. Get your facts straight before you go around calling me a liar.

Great specs, but they blew it with no LTE, no removable battery and no SIM card slot. So close…

So there’s the ics. But no SD card? And built in battery? What about that 21mb/s download speed? Does this one come with Carrier iq4.0?
Come guys, this is not the way to turn around two losing quarters buy offering minor upgrades with missing components. This was your opportunity to shine, You could have set the bar so high other companies wouldn’t be able to compete. Sure there are a lot of nice features in this package, but not enough to justify upgrading anytime soon.

I’m not confusing RAM with ROM. I had a Sensation that only had 768mb of RAM and the phone BARELY functioned. 1 GB is not enough to try and run the new versions of Sense.

The biggest power hog in a phone is its display. And with a huge 4.7 inch LCD display, this thing will chew through that battery.

Yup. 1800 mAh? With a huge LCD screen? It’ll have absolutely terrible battery life.

Why folks, why don’t you format your web pages with the text size in ‘%’ so that it’ll adjust to the tablet, display or screen that’s it’s being veiwed with. It’s easy folks and it helps with readability

Don’t mess RAM with ROM! 1gig of working RAM is plenty for the apps. 32gig of storage is also enough for future system upgrades. I won’t buy it though. Too big for me…

They never name the Android version in the spec sheet because they had to update it ever time they bring an update. Don’t worry, it will be ICS.
