  • For everybody that use the pone longer than 2 years and they have the restart issue. Just replace the battery with new one. :)

  • Hi, Using this this phone 2.5 years. Now it is going off and getting on itself several times in day. Is there any solution ? Please share anybody. Thanks.

  • Try resetting your phone.

  • My HTC Sensation XE 2715e Dispaly is broken how can I get a new one from East Africa,Am in Tanzania

  • same here

  • Hi my HTC Sense XE still running good. Except battery support and abit slow. I got problem when use imo and other messenger .. all other is really fine. Now I am considering to buy a HTC 10.

  • It's a nice phone. I have used it since 2012, and it always runs well.

  • buy a new phone, stop trying to flog a dead horse

  • When I turn on the Bluetooth it starts shutting down and light up againnnnn and again!!!! what should I do?

  • i have the same problem what is the solution ??

  • hi , could i know please how many times does it take to charge ?

  • well, tell someone to bluetooth to you an apk of a file manager like Es Explorer...once the transfer is done, just click it in the notification panel... it will install. however, make sure settings>>security>>unknown sources is checked. cheers.

  • Hi can you use snapchat on this phone thank you

  • tsp a nice phone eeeee

  • Hi,,,,my phone model HTC Sensation Xe with Beats Audio Z715e,,,, but now my phone can't show fill maneger,,,, why do i,,,please,,, please,,,, help me,,,,,plse,,,,

  • hey guys do you have broken or not booting htc sensation xe? can i buy t? i need the sim slot , mine's broken

  • loveit with viperS rom, u can make anyting with your phone

  • dev host page there is all what you need to install viper

  • How did you install ViperS ROM ?

  • Don't be fooled. These phones are still amazing phones. You can root them and flash newer ROM's on them and they easily compete with newer phones. I still use my Sensation XE running a custom ViperS ROM and it is very quick and keeps up with newer phones. The real answer to your question is NO. There was no series continued on from this model. Simply the HTC Sensation, XE and 4G. After that they continued onto the Desire (HD) and then ONE's.

  • Z715e

  • It's been almost four years since this is out... is there a newer version of this, or a comparable phone from HTC?

  • really great phone. no hang, no boring like Q mobile Pakistan.

  • I am having HTC Sensation XE Beats Audio. 6 Months back, it has no display. I had been local authorised dealer in Tirupur and also in Coimbatore. I am informed that Battery has exhauted and a new battery to be changed. Based on the suggestion, I changed. Still No display was there. I am informed by the local service people, the display card is not functioning and to change the same. I handedover to my relative at Bangalore who has made a small service and now functioning in a fine manner.

  • Its a pretty good phone.but i wich u make a new version.and thanks.

  • @justWOLF, please get me the link to that specific rom you are using. I've tried Viper 5.3.0 and the Pac Rom but the phone heats up so much while on both. Thanks in advance.

  • to all the people who experience terrible performance with their sensation, such as being constantly laggy or having a poor battery life, i have experienced that too, especially after the ICS update. my theory is that htc wants users to think they need a new phone by suggesting the phone is not capable of running the newer android versions by providing a sucky last official update. the phone is actually capable of running android 4.4.4 without a problem (mine runs on cyanogenmod 11, android 4.4.4. completely lag free and average battery life of 2 days). tutorials for installing custom roms are out there, just do it and youll have an amazing phone. i recommend vipers roms, cm11, and pacrom (which is based on cm11 but has way more customization). peace out.

  • This is an awesome andriod phone.

  • This phone is osm and better than Nokia or Samsung.....but there is some problem in this phone. 1) Take too much time for charge but too short to empty. 2) Touch hangs on some calls. (not regular) 3) No any updates. And some more.

  • ossam...phn....

  • this is about the calling if someone calling me it doese'nt ansering...may i know what may be the problem?

  • mike it work gud? How the battery life before

  • my first smartphone, 3 years on and its still a powerhouse. love it. battery life is quite short though, but i have it flashed with a custom android. Definitely getting another android when it comes time to replace it

  • Since I own this phone, I never ever buy any HTC phone again. How could a flagship in 2011 had silly problem like dusts get under screen :( and I mean dusts (not dust), lot of dusts...

  • Change ur battery bro its available in snapdeal rs 830

  • but after install jet audio plus to HTC Sensation Xe then start that player appear "unfortunetly jet audio has stopped.what i have to do. thx a lot.

  • Yeahh..this is a worst handphone ever that i used,,, i think htc explorer is better than this...

  • are you using cell c as your SIM card?

  • Loved using HTC rather than using other brand.. One major problem.. TAKES LOT OF HOURS CHARGING IT.. And once it is recharged, the battery drain very fast.. No kidding.. And its annoying..

  • my phone is continuous hanging and there is automatic touch on screen pls give me solution.

  • This is the worst phone I ever used. Battery life howww!!! such a terrible thing...

  • my sensation xe problem is....my charges time for the battery is more that 10 hours to full the battery....what's the problem?

  • i used htc sensation xe from 3 month its battery time is so poor its battery works only half hour ,, shall i change this battery??

  • hai is it any lag with your sensation xe after you use viper?

  • No more official update for Sensation..because HTC cant fix the camera bug in Jellybean.But the developers in XDA (Bruce,SebastinFM,Albinoman,Sultanxda,Shantur)ga­ve a life to my Sensation.My suggestion is to unlock your device and install custom rom. Now i have Jelly bean 4.1.2 with Sense 5 Rom with sense 6 Blinkfeed.Even you can install 4.4.4 Kitkat(but has voip bugs)

  • when is the next update for htc sensation xe because my phone only has icecream sandwich

  • can anybody plz tell me about the camera result and battery how it works?

  • open ur back casing n clean all the three copper points very gently... the top two points are for the wi fi... they are the antena sensation has this prob in almost every set used roughly... but be very carefull u could break those points n then no wifi for ever :P if not usefull so change ur casig n then try will def work... u just hav to push the point a lill up so the contact should be tight enough to complete the antena contact to activate the wifi... thankyou...

  • Me too, i cant connect to wifi networks. Why is this update behaving this way? HTC do something quick. In the first place, I didn't want to update but because it was 4.0.3 so I thought I should and here I am left with wifi connectivity problem.

  • My HTC sensation XE battery doesn't last for a day ,l have change the battery but the problem is still there.

  • My phone can not connect to any wifi or wireless connection.pls help

  • this is a really good phone with a reasonable price. but the main problem is the dust behind the screen . i update its software regularly whenever a software update is available. should i do this or not?

  • I am using this phone from last two years !!!! so far no problem !!! the BEST phone ever +

  • i am having a hard time loading a custom rom. m not able to do a s-off. can u suggest me something??

  • XDA keeps my Sensation xe alive:)

  • follow this...

  • There is no Official Jelly Bean update for Sensation XE. You can get even kikat if you Root your mobile. I have Jelly bean 4.1.2 with Sense 6 Vipers Rom. no Lag, no Freeze and stable too.

  • I'll just put this simply, the phone itself is in no way bad, but the OS is just kinda bad as it is. As a phone modder, this phone is one of THE phone to get. After flashing custom OS such as Viper which is now Sense 5. The phone performance skyrockets. And if you want KitKat-y goodness feel free to try anything else, enable ART mode runtime, and feel your phone overpowering even new devices lately.

  • Is it very slow with ice cream os... Okay.... Let me tell you something... If you update to jellybean.... Then your phone gets super slow.... You have no idea how much slow it will be.... Because I am using it.... So, here is my free advice... Don't try to update it... Take it or leave it.... Have fun buddy... Bye....

  • Beats Ear phone one side ear is not working after 6months. Any suggestions how to repair it. There are no updates for this phone for latest Anroid levels.

  • try factory restore, remember to save backup first

  • Best phone I've ever had, htc masterpiece, easy to overclock, best value

  • Hello everyone..... I am from India... But now working in China.... I brought this mobile for 330 RMB.... Which means 3300 ruppess Indian money.... It's a second hand mobile.....

  • I have this smartphone about 2 years. That is very good according to beauty, functions but it have some disadvantages that is solvable. 1- battery will be reduce after 2 years that you can buy the new original battery. 2- sometimes after more gaming, it will be very hot like other smartphones. it means all of smartphones becomes hot in some conditions. 3- This phone is very low in terms of updates. At the end , this phone is the best smartphone in the world.

  • i need help.....plzzzz phone gets hot quickly and sometime hang........ and how to free ram..........

  • Am using senssation xe and it went off when i on it, it just display HTC on the screen and it wasnt coming up. what could have happen to it?

  • pls how about the battery ,is it last longer than samsumg phone

  • To make your battery last longer is to dim down the light

  • Yes i have

  • download file manger from play store and music player from play store and every thing will be ok ;)

  • I love the external capability of this phone, but the battery is weak. What do I need to make my battery last longer?

  • This is my review about this after using it for more than 1 year: +great build quality, from alumunium +fastest CPU at 2011 (1.5 ghz) +good camera(8MP), if compared to the competitor( Galaxy S2,LG Optimus 2X) +bundled with BEATS Audio (urBeats)which gives you a great experience while listening to music inside your Sensation XE +HTC Sense, the nicest UI among the others -Death grip issues (losing signal of mobile network or wifi if you covered the upper back side or the lower back side) -Battery drains fast, less than 4 hours if you use it for full gaming -Audio Output is very disappointing, its not powerful -Free RAM always at 100mb (586mb available from 768mb)because HTC Sense needs more memory to operate it (B*M also eats your ram) -VERY BAD RAM MANAGEMENT, try to use it for multitasking, and it will be VERY VERY LAGGY!! -__- (Already using CUSROM Sense Based) that's all from me.. hope its useful To be honest, I'm disappointed with this phone. Better be waiting for HTC's next flagship phone

  • Guyz is this realy heats alot or not

  • any problems are you faceing in this phone many of them people are so this not good phone my main perpose is music pix messaage facebook calls

  • I've been using this phone for 1 year.. Overall : Very impressed with the HTC Sense, never get bored with this UI. Even I'm still using ICS, but there are many cusroms been made by dev at XDA. And the BEATS AUDIO, absolutely stunning! I like it! If you want to buy it now, it well worthed. The price is cheap. And you can use many cusroms available at XDA! From GB until JB. And who knows, KITKAT'S cusrom will be released soon..! :D Overall I love this phone! :)

  • Been using it for two years, always overclocked, never resting. Stepped on it, always dropping it. Once even a car drove over it. Just some little scratches on it. The magic formula is unibody aluminum case and the inside-curved glass. It protects the phone screen so good, that it never breaks. Also it gives the device a great cooling system. The specifications should state the curved glass and unibody case. Its a very important design feature. One that keeps me changing my phone to new one. I am still waiting a phone that would be at least as good considering the design quality. Also, now with stylus. Stylus is somehow something not worth mentioning as GSM Arena seems to think. I cannot search phones by having stylus for some strange reason.

  • bro r u sure its memory card prb?

  • this problem is due to sd card . remove and insert again, will be solved, either change the memory card,

  • Go to settings, click on 'about phone', then go to 'software updates'. Ensure you connected to wifi and have your phone plugged in, just to be on the safe side.

  • switch off the gps and wifi and make a software update.

  • I feel so upset with this phone,HTC's 2011 flagship indeed but never treated it like one..Since ICS 4.0.3 they literally forget about this Sensation regular and this Beats by audio,Sensation XE...If HTC done this to 2011 flagship,it's for sure that they will do again to their future flagship.

  • I am using this handset. I face very critical problem. Sometime it shutdown automatically. I don't find out "Why". I am not pleased for this. I all ready reset this function but not solve it. I am fad up .

  • I think the rest of the memory used by the GPU( Graphical processor unit).It is usually so for most smart phones.

  • this device have 768 MB RAM but why on task manager show only 583MB?

  • I have this phone for 6months facing the same problems 1. Battery backup is only 7-8 hours on standby if doing nothing i.e. if i don't even touch the phone. However, it last 11hrs with juice defender if i don't touch the phone after full charge with the 1730 Mah battery. 2. Signal loses a lot, my docomo sim works in it but bsnl sim doen't work. Even with airtel during calls the signal quality is poor. However good features the phone may have, but the main feature the phone must have are good battery backup and call quality. These both are bad in this phone.

  • After more than a year with my sensation xe I'm satisfied with it. I'm not a gamer but I'll share some tips for battery and performance improvement: Display: obviously use auto brightness or an app like lux from Google play. Wifi: keep it on all the time but disable performance under wifi advanced setup. Wifi is more efficient. network:use only 3g when possible to avoid changing networks often. Google services: check which services are on all the time, I found them pretty battery consuming. Root: after a year I installed a 4.2.2 cyanogenmod mod custom rom and so far the performance is better, so I recommend this. You first need to unlock bootloader in HTC developer website, then root the device and install your rom. there is a lot of info in the Internet.

  • I've got this phone and I'll tell you everything I found: Advantage -Through 10 months of use, the screen froze 2 times only, so that's perfect because other phones' screens freeze a lot. -Everything on this phone is just useful and helpful. -Audio quality is perfect. -It's very fast, slightly slower than iPhone 4s because of the hTC's sense which is very large but amazing -Camera is very nic -Amazing interface and software Disatvantages: -Battery drains quickly juat like any android phone. -Ice Cream Sandwich and sense update make the phone a little slower. -The back cover is not solid enough. -It gets hot on heavy use. So, if you are a heavy internet use it, battery will have to be charged twice a day and it will get a little hot, but else, trust me it's an amazing phone, with a very nice price range.

  • There's are numbers of issue that I have encounter for this model. No. 1> Whole phone software reset/ reload when press on home button (when open many programs at one time). No. 2 > System performance slowing down when ram memory is almost full (768 GB RAM... haizzz). No.3 > When logout FB completely, people integration takes time to regenerate lists of contact numbers on the phone. When login to FB,... again... is time consuming to setup contact again (good and bad for contact integration).....contact account processing speed very slow....XP. No. 4> Pickup call sometime don't know what happen! No sound, no voice after pickup then Miss call report generated.... XP No. 5> Ringing volume is just too soft .....haizzz.

  • Wich is better i cant decide this or s3 mini since they are close in price in amazon and which is better for play games ?

  • 1/5 GHz

  • If you're into games and 3rd party apps, the RAM difference DOES matter.

  • Can i uprade this to jelly beam.....

  • How much ROM does HTC Sensation XE have? Will it receive at least a Sense 4.0 update if its not getting Jelly Bean update?

IV READ HERE THAT IT REALY HELPS THE XE TO BEE BETER BUT I DONT KNOW.

  • I believe this phone will get JB update as well, however the one v that you mentioned won't get it for sure ( htc claimed ), so don't look at the date of the phone, some newer phones are worse, I think this one is still worth to buy

  • It is not a corning gorlla glass

  • Make sure u have installed all the steps one by one.. If it stuck on htc boot logo then dont panic.. Just take off ur battery and put it again and hold volume down key and press power on button.. Keep holding down volume key untill it boots in bootloader... Now go to recovery and full wipe ur system except memory card After thatchoose install from sd card..and install viper once again... I am sure it will work

  • It is a corning gorilla glass

  • I just want to ask if the screen of this phone is scratchproof? Is it anti scratch like the samsung galaxy s3? :)

  • after installing viper 1.6.3..it stuck on the starting screen...saying sensation xe...nothing else...any idea there??

  • Anything named htc one **, fi you this, youa re buying old tecnology. Old software, and you are way to far from support aka updates. IS a waste, get a one sv, one s , one v or a One vx.

  • I bought the htc sensational recently thw device is great in specification however, I can neither connect with my blackberry phone via Bluetooth .please, I need help.may u reach me by e-mail at [email protected] Thanks

  • I bought the xe , it is a nice mobile but I have a problem in Bluetooth, most of the times bluetooth message are unsucsessful. Any body came thru this problem

  • can sensation xe for video call?

  • can sensation ce for video call?

  • is your phone updated to android 4.0

  • I'm using the phone not for long but I love it because it was cheap and I have no problems with it. Everything is nice and fast. Good that I didn't bought something like S3 because I would not be happy, because of the higher price - for the same stuff. Now I'm just searching for a good rooting program and lets have some fun :)

  • hi guys, can Sensation XE be upgraded to Jelly Bean?? will there be any problem??

  • I recived it too

  • For lag, try the app "Seeder" (free on xda or $1-$2 in the app store). My previous phone was a very old budget phone, and seeder changed it from unusable from severe lag to super fast, and it had like 1/8th the specs of the XE. Beyond that, I guess flashing a custom ROM would be the next step to speed increase. I use ARHD, and its so fast that I underclock to 1.3Ghz (to perserve battery), and there is still no noticable lag at all.

  • I've used four android phones and although HTC Sensation XE still has limitations, it's the best android phone I've used so far. I'm not actually using the phone for heavy graphic games anymore ever since I got an iPad. Having said that, the limited RAM limits your multi-tasking. You have to constantly close applications that you're not using anymore. A few months ago, my unit also had some problems with the LCD but the service center was able to fix it without any charge. But apart from that, I love: - the UI; it's much sleeker than the usual Android UI - it's far more responsive than my LG Optimus 2x although the specs aren't that different - call quality is also good - comes with a beats headset! But it makes me wonder though if I would be better off switching to iPhone. I haven't had a lag-free experience in any Android phone (Sony, Samsung, LG and HTC) and it's a bummer especially when you're looking for a contact in the phonebook.

  • I think almost all the htc phone have a low loudness speaker(I already have 4 different type of HTC). may be its their way to keep the speaker at most performance and dont break cause the loudness.but u can use a lot application on play store that can increase the volume of the speaker.but the sound on headset on HTC is still one of the best

  • I like this mobile because it have remove able battery and can extend memory card

  • I bought the XE right after I lost my Sensation 2 months ago, and realized that I did the right thing. The reason : Beats Audio & Beats Headset. Liked HTC even more since then. :)

  • Guys, are you also experiencing problem in its sound loudness? i think the loudness is too low comparable with other handsets in the market today. I appreciate your feedback/experience sharing. Thanks!

  • hi all im facing problems in play store in my sensation. the images and screen shots are not loading in play store. it displays the message "cant load screen shots". im using wifi connection with high speed but the images are not showing and when using data connection the images are loading. . i have contacted google on this issue and they mentioned to clear cache and data in play store app and download manager. but nothing worked for me i have also unistalled updates in play store app and again open the play store it gets updated to latest version 3.10.14 but the images are not showing. so i cant figured out yet where the problem exist? is there any setting to be changed with the wifi connection? anyone who came out of this issues please help me . it makes me frustrating from many days. .

  • Plz tell me frnds can it play 1080p mkv file through vlc or other video player

  • i have a problm in my phne,the problm is camera settings,any body tell me the ideal camera settings coz a white shadow is come after capturing..

  • For jelly bean I think no:(

  • yes what did it do.also this phone getting 4.1 or not.

  • cons for this phone would be the playback sound after you record videos. and the death grip (losing wifi or mobile signal when touching the top right side of the phone).. sound quality is bad when playing music thru loudspeaker, but works well when using beats headset

  • Just receive a minor update about the personalize ... Did u all get this update too?

  • Can anyone please let me know if in this mobile we can able to upgrade android to 4.0 version? Also after upgrading how is the performance?

  • What would be your opinion about xperia sl?

  • superb phone..recomand

  • If your getting battery issue better you root your mobile and install vipers 1.6.0 ROM its battery backup is good.

  • i just bought this phone few weeks ago. it was awesome and im satisfied with this phone :)

  • I gotta charge it 2 times a day because I use it all day. Im gonna solve that very easy. I will buy one more baterry :)

  • htc sensation xe is a good product,but battery is disappoint me,phone have great features and look,so i think overall it is good product

  • I really had a bad experience with this phone! I've been to the service center for 8 times! each time it took them almost a month to return back the phone. image 8 months without a phone. Their call center sucks! Promise to call back but no one care to call back. This come from their manager! After much complain I requested for a different model, they said my phone value is already drop and only can give me a lower model (they call it upgrade. I told them thats DOWNGRADE!). Image that! I was furious! I was adamant and manage to get a better model. I'm selling that & Trust me this will be the LAST TIME I'LL WILL EVER USE HTC PRODUCT!

  • go to settings power un check fast boot.now 2 to 3 hours charging time

  • what about battery?and touch?

  • I got a sensation xe 6 weeks ago. I would recommend this phone. 1. The camera is very good - a lot of cameras on smart phones are garbage. Don't ignore this point. Having a good camera is worth a lot in my opinion. 2. The processor is very good also. If you don't want to pay for a top of the line phone with 4 cores (which is a waste of money if you aren't either running a business with your phone or overly wealthy), then this is about the best processor you will get for a non top-of-the-line price (it is less than half of those phones). 3. The hardware build looks very solid. It even feels like its a very well built phone when you see it 4. The audio with beats is good 5. The display is great too 6. Price now is that of the newer budget phones, but the quality is higher Overall very good The downsides are: 1. Battery life is meh, but they are on most phones. To improve it, use an app like 'llama' or 'automateit' to automatically change settings for you, such as auto turn brightness down to 30% when at home and up to 100% when out, have sync turned off by default and every half hour automatically have it turned on for 2 minutes. you should also root it to change processor governor, and ROM maybe to change other settings (I am very happy with ARHD 6.8.0). With all that, I need to recharge every 36 hours but I don't use it heavily. you probably will need to charge every night - or during the day also if you use it a lot - basically like other phones like s2, etc 2. Yes HTC seems to not care about upgrading the JB. it is a bummer for sure Honestly though, this phone is so nice on my rooted ICS HTC Sense rom (ARHD), that I would still choose it again even with these 2 downsides. But of course it is best to know of these 2 downsides before you purchase it. I think you will need to pay a lot more money to get a phone of this quality. Good luck.

  • i have resetted my sensation thereafter play store not working and cannot sign into talk. .please help me anyone. .

  • I think the same, we have a lot of hardware power, so we need jelly bean.

  • i bought htc sensation xe more then a month ago and the battery already drop real fast within 2 weeks of rare usage and it took 5 hours to charge it !!!!!!! i took the phone to the htc service center and it took 2 weeks to repair it but when i recharge the battery it still need 5 hours or more to get it full !!!!!!!!so DONT BUY HTC PRODUCTS AND THE SERVICE CENTER IS SUC!!!!!!! the problem is i couldnt return the phone and get my money back!!! in indonesia suc

  • Seriously feel sad fir htc who dont evem give our phone a software update as samsung galaxy s 2 and note already get their update ...do u all think that htc will give us update ?;(

  • i want to ask if i can see outgoing call w8ing i mean that if i am calling x person while he is already talking can i see on my mobile a notification that he is talking i do that on nokia N81 what about the sensation XE anyone helps plz

  • hey there; you see my comment below?! i was thinking about buying Sony Xperia SL; it has great features, but my friend who is familiar with pc and phones, told me not to buy sony phones because sony phones aren't good; Htc sensation xe is a great phone but it's little old; if you can buy galaxy nexus it can have great support from google; :)

  • Hi there. could anyone help me, i'm thinking on a new mobile and i'm stuck between htc sensation xe, sony xperia sl, samsung galaxy nexus I9250 and huawei ascend p1.. wich one do you recommend?

  • Hi. why not the white one?

  • yes, you are right; about the ppi! i am afraid to buy galaxy sIII mini because of it's low pixel density; i found another sony phone called Xperia SL ; it's a bit more expensive but has great features; i think i'll buy that :)

  • good point! my aunt's passing her XE to me. hope there won't be any issues since she took good care of it.

  • You need to reset your phone after you update to ics.

  • Firstly,why u keep comparing their ram and software ??If u wan your sensation on jb,u can just go root your phone...Besides that , sensation xe has a 8 mp camera , 4.3 inch display ( higher ppi density) , 1.5 GHz dual core ,beats audio technology , 1750 mah battery ...All these specs already own s3 mini ...if u really wan JB AND 1GB RAM , xperia ion have it + a 12mp camera and their price almost the same ... lastly, who is ' they' ? Samsung's CEO ? did Samsung said s3 mini will have a better future?? Absolutely NO !

  • To rest your mobile power off your mobile and remove your battery for few second than press and hold volume down button than power on your mobile keep volume button hold down until you go to boot option from there you can find. also search in Google how to reset sensation xe you get help from there also

  • hi can u plz tell me frm where i can get the option of factory reset in htc sensation

  • thank you guys; for your comments; you know what? first i wanted to buy HTC Sensation; but some specifications disappointed me; 768MB ram in front of 1GB ram of GSIII mini; Android 4.0.4 in front of Jelly Bean; and they say that the battery drains more quickly than Siii mini; and sIII mini would have a better support in the future; so why you are saying that SIII mini is a waste of money?

  • No it s not true... One s is better but s2 isn t better beleive me I have sensation xe... It s really good... Better than s3 mini But i can say one thing for you : on sensation xe...speaker is normal not that perfect... But earphones or beats are things that make you adore you phone... I suggest sensation xe but please don t get the white one, get the black one... Hope i helped u

  • Ya i agreed that u said one s is better but s2 is better i can't accept it � seriously s2 is almost same as sensation but sensation has a more powerful processor and beats audio technology � for s3 mini , please don't buy it �it only wasted your money as s3 mini price is quite high just because its name 's3 mini'�.if u compare their spec ,u will four that it actually not worth �if you have these budget,u can go for sony xperia ion because it has larger display and BRAVIA ENGINE while their price almost the same�.

  • go for SIII mini

  • I installed custom ROM viperS v1.60 with sense 4. its very good ROM and battery life is also improved. if I use Tango or Fring than I get hanging problems in it. This problem is by software not mobile.

  • i know that one s or galaxy s II is better; but between sensation and sIII mini which one do you suggest? :)

  • HTC sensation is good phone but now its old phone better you buy HTC one S ora galaxy S2 its better than S3 mini

  • hey guys; i hope you help me; i'm stuck in buying HTC Sensation XE or Samsung galaxy sIII mini; HTC sensation has a bigger screen and a better camera; but it has less ram; and i think it won't get G.B update; what's your idea?

  • Mate dont do it, please for your sake dont get it, yeah it looks good, sounds good, but its the most unreiable handset i have ever owned, HTC seem to have given up. Buy sony or samsung instead.

  • guys i am planning to buy this phone.... is it worth it?? And if i buy it from ebay will i be able to update it to JB and i am a big htc fan, so i wold also like to update itto sense 3.6, is it possible to do so??

  • Ok so i work for Orange, now ee, and i bought this handset, and ever since i have i have had the following problems. 1, first of all, the beats by dre headphones stopped working after the first week,second pair stopped working after week 2,apparently if this happens they must be sent off to holand to be fixed. 2, Started turning off randomly so sent it off, HTC sent it back stating no problem could be found, now the battery works for only 5 hours, htc advised me buy another battery. I wont buy an htc again, and i rearly sell them now also. Really disapionted by you htc....

  • I am using HTC Xe for 8mos now and I havent had any issues with the battery and the System itself. it perfectly runs with ICS, its fast, esp web browsing. It looks really decent and elegant. the 8mp camera is awesome, i keep on taking photos with my XE rather than my digicam, coz this one's handy. i dont know why others having issues with their htc, well i guess it is on how you took care of your phone folks.

  • Our battery won't spoil if we charge simply?

  • -No overcharging -Not letting the battery get dead -Disabling redundant apps and set battery-saving preferences

  • death grip. Is this true on this uni?!

  • What do you mean by "charge it right"?

  • can we update it to 4.1 Jelly bean official?

  • 4-5 days of standby is absolutely impossible dude. Have u upgraded to ics or are u talking about g.b version...? After upgrading to ics my mobile does not last than 6 hrs. I cant believe wats going on with my set.

  • lol 4 to 5 days!!! Its sensation xe dude, not Nokia 1100 or any other simple mobile phone. Even Note II battery is 3100 mAh and it doesn't give 4 to 5 days.

  • Why?

  • If you are planning to buy Sensation XE, better go for One X+, this phone is fantastic! I used Xperia Arc then Sensation and now Sensation XE and ONE X+. The X Plus is much much better in all aspects, all...

  • my Sensation XE battery life time is 4-5 days listening music for 5 hours a day camera using 30 minutes a day texting 3 hours = 8,5 hours a day and still it holds 4-5 days for me you have to charge it right

  • I used sensation xe it's battery runs maximum 24 hours...

  • Can anybody tell me about its battery timing? GSMARENA didn't mention its endurance rate in review. I used Galaxy S2 but battery was not enough for me as I am fond of texts. I don't use mobiles for songs, net or games. If it gives me 2 days after some calls and sending 100 to 150 SMS/day then it will be a big deal for me. Users kindly help me. Have to buy it within this week.

  • yes you can put jellybean 4.1 to htc sensation xe..one of my frined has tried it and it worked.i personally prefer GB to it..dont wanna meddle wid it until it s propelly established n ol the bugs etc r fixed.:)

  • Can anyone tell me please can we updated to 4.1 (Jelly Bean)

  • this is an issue happened to a guy.read it below. Please don�t purchase HTC phones from India ********************************* I was in love with my HTC Sensation XE, till I have to contact hTC Service Center for a touch issue The touch screen suddenly stopped working. It won�t work as soon as I lock the phone, and I have to remove the battery and put it back to get it worked. But the problem will again happen as soon as I lock it. My phone was under warranty and I have given my phone for service on 22 Jan 2013 ( Redington India LTD , Cochin). The local service people inspected the phone and did software update, but as the issue persisted, they handed it over to Bangalore service center. I handed over the phone to local service center without any physical damage. There was nothing mentioned in the hTC C are Service Report too, and they said it�s covered under warranty. Now I am shocked to hear that HTC is not going to serve it under warranty as there is damage in board or something like that and they are asking me to pay INR 13000 in order to rectify the issue. I CAN EASILY BUY A NEW PHONE WITH THIS AMOUNT. I don�t want to spend any more money on this expensive phone which I bought for 34k , I am totally disappointed the way HTC handle their customers. I didn't get a proper reply when I called the customer care. I really regret purchasing this expensive devise and totally disappointed with Service Center experience. HTC India U Sucks

  • Hi guys.. I got HTC One V. before I got it, I have HTC Hero. Same problems happened with the different phone units. when I connect the phone to my laptop to charge it its fine but if I plug it to an outlet its getting hot on top. and the battery life sucks too. easily consumed even if I'm just using it for sending SMS. I think HTC should fix the problem regarding the battery life. the phone itself is good and I really love it it's just that I'm getting pissed with the battery

  • How's the battery life of this phone? Because my boyfriend got HTC One V and the battery life is not good. easily consumed even if your just using the phone for SMS. Please reply

  • hi melissa, you can solve your problem by the upgrade your android. good luck ;-)

  • Hi My phone has the same software and sense version In fact it lasts 30 hrs when you don't use it that much: 2 hours wifi 2 hours music... On heavy usage it won't last more than 9 hours (3G-music games videos...) I suggest you to keep brightness 0 when you re at home, turn off wifi or 3g when not using them and keep don t keep apps runing on the background( press and hold home key and swipe all apps running)

  • How come it's so

  • hi, my phones battery doesn't last 30 hours not even after turning power saver ,minimum brightness etc. android 4.0.3, sense 3.6 etc.. what may be the problem pls suggest

  • hi...does htc sensation xe have slow motion tech just like sensation xl...thanks for reply

  • i think this phone is quite ok, except one serious malfunctioning. sometimes cannot receive sms, and no indicating on this, so my friends will be very sad thought i blacklist them.

  • I've had this phone for around a month now and I can say that I am more than satisfied with it! It's a great phone! Only draw back? Very low memory available. The max amount of RAM you may get is 200MB but the average is 120MB. Despite that point; great great phone.

  • thanks. (^-^)

  • Menu Settings Wifi make a scan and check it on... Then connect to it Anything else might be a hardware or software issue

  • I found this phone amazing...no software issues I got it with ics installed and it's working perfectly Also apex launcher pro is available at the google play store you can install it I recommend this phone Just one thing but it doesn't bother me... You can feel like an echo sound in video just a little bit not a big deal

  • this phone worth buying? it cheap now here in malaysia :) full seal package at price of rm800. any software issue with this phone? ics works fine? can i use apex launcher pro with XE?

  • My Sensation XE won`t connect to WiFi can someone help me out...Damn.

  • Both are the same they can get through 30 hours on medium usage Just one say i forgot to tell you : speaker on s2 is a bit better but beats that come with the sensation xe are so cool But i still recommend sensation xe Feel free to ask anything else

  • Thnx for your suggestion Dude and What About battery Backup

  • I m using the sensation xe and my friend has the s2 I can tell u that sensation xe has a very nice interface...far better tan touchwiz on samsung So if u want a nice interface go for this one... S2 has a boring interface Everything is almost the same Ur choice

  • Galaxy s2 has the edge just for the fact that its up gradable to 4.1 n its got more internal memory and higher ram.....go for s2, i myself am using sensation xe....

  • is there anyways i can return it to htc ?? i just bought it few days ago and i have a big problem with the phone signal which is very poor when i am in a room.

  • Normal, mine only last for 8 hours for heavy use. If on 3G whole day, only last for 6 hours.

  • which is better htc sensation xe or samsung galaxy s2

But just one thing to ask about and I would appreciate any answer or help My phone takes about 3 to 4 hours to get fully charged and it lasts through a day on medium usage Is that normal or it's just my phone's case? Thanks in advance

  • galaxy s 3 far better

  • I bought this phone June 2012 and it was nothing but trouble in the first week I had to return 3 times for replacement False Restarts constant problem slow ui poor battery And battery over heating wi fi poor I WILL NEVER BUY HTC AGAIN I NOW HAVE GALAXY A 3

  • yeah same here, bottom part is hot especially when i play games.. try htc stores i think they have battery for your sensation xe

  • Did any of you guys have this experience on your XE's? The battery is on full charge and works ok in music,games,video, and apps.. but when someone rings the phone it turns off by itself..or sometimes it would just switch itself off..my XE is on 4.1.Any comment on this

  • I am using this phone about 1 month .For me its pretty good.For that money can't buy better.Was cost about 270 EUR,all equal phone are more expensive.It comes with android 4.0.3. don't understand why everybody wants jelly bean.Works perfect with ICS.Can play all 3D games.Market say do not support all games,but i download for free via PC and install in phone.

  • Sorry not Thailand.Taiwan brand and made in Taiwan

  • HTC is Thailand brand,also made in Thailand

  • Just to give you my point of view. I'm using this phone almost a year know. First the answers to your questions: 1) Photo quality is OK in normal light conditions. In lower light conditions it will become gradually worse. I can not compare this to the phone you want it to be compared with. 2) Video quality is pretty much the same as photo quality. In good light conditions it's OK (that doesn't mean wicked, but enough). The audio for the video is terrible (if a lot of noise is produced). If just one person is speaking, or a bird is singing, or situations like that, it's ok, but for the other situations, which appear to happen more, it's really bad (no good audio filtering it seems). 3) Beats audio is wicked, I really like this feature, although it's only enabled with the built in audio system, so if you use other apps for playing music, this will probably not work (or not that I now of). The ears that come with the sensation xe are really really good! Certainly a plus. The quality of the speaker of the sensation xe is not that good (can't go very loud and if it's very loud it will be noise). Now just to give you other advice: Some downpoints I noticed: - Phone falls out sometimes (which means a few times each week, which I find annoying) - Battery can become hot. --> these are both battery problems and I read something about changing the battery or putting a paper between it and the cover to solve the problem (haven't tried that yet). - Sometimes it's laggy. Rest is pluspoint I suppose. I wouldn't buy this phone anymore, because htc is very slow in updating software (android 4.1 came out in like July or something and it's still not on the sensation xe right now in January). Therefor I would probably buy a Nexus (read Google) phone that will support updates right away. Also the fall out problem I really find irritating, certainly if a call comes in. My advice, search a little bit further and you will find better phones now (One X+, Samsung SIII, Nexus 4,...). Good luck on your search. Grtz, D.

  • when i am using my HTC sensation, the bottom is getting hot.. is it normal guys? and the battery is always lowbat.. but, HTC is good enough.. anyway, can i buy spare battery here in the phil?/

  • please help me, I find difficult to use wi-fi on my sensation xe, anytime want to connect, it tell me not in range...

  • bro he is reffering to jelly bean and not ICS, i also have the phone and it seems like XE will not have the JB update

  • the bottom gets pretty hot and drains battery after OTA update. all I wanna do is downgrade back to gingerbread.

  • I'm having a problem with my camera on my HTC Sensation XE. It doesn't work anymore. I tried factory reset but still nothing happens. Could someone help me. :(

  • I have this phone and mine came with ICS so I'm pretty sure that you can get ICS on this phone. (Also, don't say that it is just a custom rom or anything, the moment I got the phone and turned it on and checked the android version it said Version 4.04, i.e ICS)

  • will it support jelly bean version

  • 1. i think the camera is pretty neat. what's more it has an in-built editing system where you can auto-enhance the pic to make it look better. 2. video quality is a so-so. sound for video is crap. especially if youre recording a live concert. 3. yes the beats are pretty awesome it lives up to its name. one of the main reasons i got the phone. source: 1 yr of experience using this phone

  • what about update to 4.1 jellybean.........

  • Lol...who's sensation xe will not comes with beats headset ?? We as a consumer choose sensation xe beacause of its beats headset if sensation xe only comes with the phone who one care about this ??

  • during dual core war this phone was the beast beside s2 in the market...but now quad Core war..I don't think we can compare it unless u buying iPhone

  • Camera for sensation xe(Dual led flash) and s2 are almost same quality Unless u buying iPhone or Sony which is "pure camera pixel making"...but if u prefer variant better buy s2 LTE version pack with 1.5dual core,1GB ram,46mbs 4G speed..but if u want feel HTC sense go HTC phone then

  • Every Os in this world can't run from bugger...duh

  • Indeed old phone but I don't think the different of price between sensation xe and one x are Rm200+ only unless u buying second hand phone....Ori set for both phone are : sensation xe RM1199-1299(no beats) and one x RM1699-2099

  • i love this htc version! and i'm loving the internet pass-through. btw, the hotspot worked while it's having internet pass through :P

  • Seriously go for HTC butterfly or one x if u have higher budget...no point to buy this phone since it is a quite old phone ...even one x have a much much better display and jelly bean ( latest android software ) and their price just different about rm200+ only ...or u can go for HTC butterfly even better display ( FULL HD ) and nicer camera ...

  • Hey man ...we know ics is enough but there are a lottttttt of bugs there ...

  • Hey people :) I really REALLY want to buy the sensation xe, however, some of the comments in this section have been a touch negative and some positive. All I really want to know is a few things, so if you could help me out, I'd really appreciate it :) 1.camera quality- 8mp w/flash, is it great in comparison to the galaxy s i9000? 2.video quality- I always wanted a phone that could record in 1080p, once again, is it GREAT? 3. I have heard a lot of hype about the Beats Audio on this phone in particular. What is the speaker quality like? And do the beats headphones live up to the expectation of "the best sound going around"?

  • Get avast! Mobile Security. Allows you to block unknown numbers, chosen numbers from contact list, block a set of times where u dont want anyone to call, and more...

  • Not confirmed yet

  • Does this phone really support sense 3.0

  • It is not confirmed yet

  • In applications called wi-fi hotspot

  • I don't know how can they give you the Sensation xe without the beat it is made for it, may be you shouldn't trust them find another dealer. I've been using this phone for more then a year now and i still love it...

  • For those who plan to buy this phone, when you have fully crowded your memory, it hangs a lot. The characters and icons get deformed like it was squashed or like it was infected by virus. Ive been using the phone for 6 months now and not really happy with the performance of it. Try getting Samsung S3, its better. I got one of it and its functioning perfectly. The camera and video quality are not good as well. Although it's a high megapixel phone, its quality is like a VGA phone only. Cant be compared to Sony Eric's cam and video quality.

  • I am planing to buy this phone. Hope im not too late because it supports jelly bean also. They have given me 2 options, one with beats audio and one without beets audio, where the difference is only 60USD. Does beats give a good quality for real or its just another headset ? And how is this phone ?

  • How to use the portable wi-fi hot spot?? someone please help me

  • is this phone ready for jelly bean?

  • WHY all the menus under the call settings of my sensation XE are all disabled? how can i enable it? thanks :D

  • Jelly Bean Update Info from HTC

  • YES BUT YOU DON'T GET BEATS AUDIO Any 3.5 jack headphones work with the phone

  • does the other headset brands will work on htc sensation xe?

  • this phone still cannot upgrade to jelly bean rite?

  • ready for 4.1 jellybean

  • Warranty! So the phone it's not old enough to out of warranty, so if board is broke unless you messed with it your covered and HTC can't charge you! SO INFORM HTC UNLESS THEY FIX FREE YOU WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION

  • Please help, i updated my phone to 4.0.3 and since then i have WiFi conection problem, i waited for too long for another update, i can not wait anymore how can i solve this problem. Thanks on advance.

TRY THE ULTRA YOU WILL THINK SOMEONE SUPER CHARGED YOUR PHONE

  • After 2 months of using HTC Sensation XE, I swear I will not buy any HTC device in the future. Because, HTC itself who release the update, but when I go to software update in Setting and complete the update. Later on my device keep re-boot. When, I bring to the HTC service center, they said now my device's board has broken already, and it costs US$225 to replace the board. It's crazy...!

  • @ ronaldo: samsung devices really suck!! htc & sony ericsson has the most high quality devices

  • best on the best hts sens xe .i have on 2 month and i am very satisfait with him

  • htc is good but it lacks and sony also lacks some processor performance.liking ang indulging with android you should go with samsung b'coz it has ability to upgrade and leading company in the world which make mind perfect.As htc is over heated when more number of time is used.

  • is this phone going to have an upgrade of jelly beans and upcomming androids?

  • Am planning to buy one phne..anyone pls tell me which one is better Xperia P or HTC sensation XE??

  • does it really get laggy after installing a few apps?

So can someone please confirm me about it's lags? Thank you....

  • does it really get laggy after installing a few apps? Someone please reply ASAP!Thank you

  • Should I buy sensation xe or Moto razr XT910?

  • Not correct my Sensation XE shipped with 4.0.3 and sense is 3.6 not 4

  • Back everything up and factory reset then works again and you will find useful stuff and better smoother operation With updates HTC forget to mention you have to factory reset to get the new software working properly

  • Buying them over the Sensation XE would make you a fool THEY ARE INFERIOR RUBBISH! Newer does not equal better you can't even change the battery when dies you have to send the phone back to HTC to have changed at a cost to you and can't add to memory because no memory card slot! One X is plastic to add injury to insult! I bought my Sensation XE June 2012 and could of bought the One S cheaper but it is ugly and feels cheap! Sensation XE is the best!

  • this phone is great. it will be more greater when jelly bean comes on it (i hope) the battery lasts a day with heavy use and with less use it will last 1,5 days. but considering that there are newer phones on the market like the one s and one x i would buy them

  • after update restore to fectory setting and chek

  • I have updated software to 3.33.707.151. After that, my Sensation XE get hang many times a day, and everyday since then. Always re-stated by itself. Is there anyone facing problem like me? Please kindly share your experience and solution. Thanks.

  • If you listen to hip-hop then they are good If you listen to classical opera rock pop or any other type of music then no better than a £30 set I have a monster (company who makes the headphones) Bluetooth speaker and a million times better for broad music taste I listen to every genre of music so when listen to hip-hop I use them if other genre then I use an HTC set Value for money 4/10 Quality of build 5/10 Sound quality 6/10 OVERALL 6/10 The biggest problem is you pay £90+ more for with the headphones than without I paid £430 with but could of bought for £330 without so better to buy without and get a pair of Dr dre at Carphone Warehouse for £60 now

  • havinh an idea of buyin this pgone... s this phone worth buying... pls tell your opinion... any suggestions...

  • if you are getting SD card removing error in ics 4 i think this is because of dropbox application. install the latest version of dropbox and check this solve your problem are not

  • Thank YOu!

  • i just updated to 3.33.707.151 i am having some problem with my phone....i hope this update will fix it!!!

  • i just updated my sensation xe to 3.33.707.151. the only improvement I noticed was the CPU consumption w/c is now better than the last software I had.any other improvements that you've noticed?

  • HTC doesn't know if older models (that were upgraded to ICS) will get sense 4.0. So far, only models shipped with ICS have sense 4.0.

  • Rooting is possibly the best thing you can do to your phone. By rooting your phone, you can let your phone run the way it was supposed to run. Sure, you forfeit future updates but you can do a temp un-root to apply the update and re-root after. So far, I have rooted both my HTC Wildfire S and my Sensation XE and they both run 3x faster then they did un-rooted. Custom ROM on my Wildfire S (as it's no longer getting updates) and stock ROM on my Sensation. If they break, they are pretty easy to fix if you look online. But even if you can't, HTC will take the phone and repair at a cost and it's not that expensive.

  • This phone isn't outdated in any way. I recently got this phone 2 weeks ago and I have not regretted it. Super responsive, quick and does everything I need. It's worth the money.

  • They broke within 2-4 weeks with me using them...

  • Hey guys, I m going to buy beats earphone, which is included with XE/XL... Please guys, tell me the review of this ear phone... About sound clearity, bass and all.....

  • can i use warranty to fix earphone? the left one malfunction =(

  • now my htc 4.0.3.. so far all excellent condition..

  • no info is available in this regard. I talked with htc representative and they said they have no information about updation of sense 3.6 to sense 4.0 in htc sensation XE. I too wish htc would provide sense update to 4.0 so that I can make my mind to buy this great phone. :)

  • I bought it last day, everything looks great but max volume level is not satisfying, sometimes it is hard to hear in rough environment. This is disappointing for me as i am nokia user and i am used to clear voice.

  • My phone is SIM free I can use any network worldwide Any updates come direct from HTC not a network Only noob is you by rooting your XE you forfeit your guarantee rights and if your XE goes wrong you will find out how expensive that is

  • Does any one know the Endurance ratting of this mobile?

  • 1. Temple Run runs smoothly, but I can't find FRONTLINE COMMANDO in PLAY STORE, even you downloaded the apk, its still said LOADING, "I DON'T KNOW WHY" 2. Battery life must be the first problem that faced in many android phones. It depends to you, if you using 3G, GPS, BLUETOOTH, AUTO SYNC, MUSIC AND BROWSING (multitask) it should drains your battery quickly. Hope thats helpful for you sorry for the english :)

  • HTC Sensation Xe ( I am using continue is well, i did'nt found any fault in HTC ( sensation XE )... Thanks & Best Regards. Hami - sss

  • maybe your network provider is slow..there is no problem with my HTC Sensation XE so far. running on jellybean pre-rooted with custom ROM. dont read lazy comments here in GSMarena the commentators here are too noob..hehehe

  • can anyone tell me when sense 4.0 will release for sensation xe?????????

  • Sorry I bet even HTC doesn't know they have very slow tech workers in Taiwan they are also very lazy makes you mad!

  • what is the hotkey where you can test you battery and headsets on your phone. i saw the service guy did it on my phone but i did not have the chance to ask him. does anybody know?

  • Link2sd is much better than app 2 sd pro. it can move any app to the sd card. (ROOT REQUIRED)

  • hi i want 4.04 verstion my htc phone

  • Hey I also have the same problem with my sensantion xe...how do I fix this problem. Hoping for a quick reply thanks

  • The problem with all HTC updates is the fact that they are not done locally BUT all done in Taiwan! I complained to the customer services department and the manager forwarded my email to Taiwan I suggest everyone does the same if you want the upgrade quicker! Question the sanity of whoever decided to upgrade or install (newer models come with ICS) the 4.0.3 version WHICH IS KNOWN TO HAVE NUMEROUS PROBLEMS and is a criminal action in your country (check your countries consumer laws first to make sure is) on HTC's part to release/install a faulty OS causing numerous problems to the phone! The evidence is everywhere that 4.0.3 is unstable and should never of left Google its not an HTC issue other makers like Samsung issued to their galaxy II and caused themselves a huge headache with owners accusing them of sabotaging their phones in an underhand attempt to make them purchase the galaxy 3 I believe Samsung issued a 4.0.4 version to their customers HTC are slow their patch did not work!

  • Will the xe have an update to Jellybean? I've had this phone for a year now but it is still at par with all the new phones out there..quad cores and even Crapple iphone 5..very durable too..i tried a hammer test on it and its still perfect..htc..definitely premium build and quality...

  • Well well i love my phone so much, but recently i am like crazy cz everytime i take a picture, it appears right but after some time say 1 hour it goes blank and the phone says cannot open this type of file. Mreover there are times wen the photos appear half only with stripes all across Same is for the songs and fotos i hav transfered frm my laptop via bluetooth. Am desperate now!!!@ please everyone. I seriously need help.

  • Hello Are you from Romania? Me too (Bistrita). Do you have a Sensation XE? If yes, how is it? Do you recommend it? Please tell me a few words about this phone: what bothers you and what do you like at this phone? I want to buy one, too.

  • I just bought the phone two days before and I fell the same signals gone for my telenor network. So how much time before you bought this phone.

  • Thank's for the info. I am interested if you had any problem with your HTC Sensation XE? You said only good things about it. I am glad. But does it has any problem of any kind: death grip, wireless conection problems, have ever blocked. For two weeks I am desperate about this phone but I am not convinced yet to buy it. I also like Htc One S. At Sensation XE if I use it only for talking and messaging (1 hour/day), Internet wireless(1 hour/day), internet 3G (20 minutes / day), no bluetooth activation, no gps activation, does the battery last for 2 days? . Anybody who wants can answer me. Thank's!

  • hi i got this phone but I have so big problem with: when I connect that to my pc via usb cable, touch screen dies.but when I connect that too laptop work perfectly,please help me to solve this problem.

  • Hi, I own this phone and I've been using it for 7 months. All I can say it's really a smart-phone. Yes, the update holds lots of improvements, I can list some: 1. The curve line on the bottom of the screen is replaced by a straight one, smoother and very beautiful. 2. Better performance, short responding time, you can feel it clearly. 3. The battery takes more time to full-charge, but in the other hand, the drain time is increased, so you can count on the battery and use the phone all the day. I'm very pleased of this improvement. Finally, the HTC-Sense is a good experience for android UI, the developers worked really hard, I love this phone its so friendly. I'm not a sale representative, that's what I've experienced. Good Luck :) Marcel Jdid [email protected]

  • Try to change the date of your phone. Change the year from 2012 to 2013 and than try to search for update. I do not not know if it works, i do not have a htc phone but i heard it might work. you can not damage your phone if you do that. try it

  • hi guys, i got a serious problem with my htc sensation xe that when i on my phones wifi for some internet use the signals of my network(mobilink network using) vanished during wifi connection and appears on screen that no network available. i want to know that it just happened due to network or there is some serious issue with htc sensation xe use over wifi...??????? please help me.... and is there anyone who have the same issue with his phone???

  • This phone that I got right now is good. The physical appearance is elegant, beats audio is cool, speed in browsing is average but the camera, video recorder and sound recorder quality are poor. I hope HTC can come up with a unit in the future that will fix these areas. I expected much with the HD video of HTC Sens XE and I got disappointed. There's much noise in it. I also experienced a bug here where the widgets disappeared when I was trying to access the 'browse all HTC widgets" and I had to factory reset the phone for it to appear again which I discovered in a forum as well about this phone.The album art in music gallery does not also update accordingly. It sometimes copies the pictures you have in your stored pictures in the gallery. Overall, these are the things that need improvement but I still love my phone. :)

  • No, jellybean is not available on HTC Sensation XE yet and if it ever will be, I don't think it'll be any time soon as the One series will be HTC's priority.

  • is Jelly bean is available in uae for sensation xe please tell me i need one

  • look mohamed its load speaker is not i think that S2 mauch loader overall its good mobile but in my opinion try to get phone that will get 4.1 jelly bean i think also u may search on new sony mobiles ( S )they also awesome but really i love my phone there isnot any game that doesnot work on it due to its speed except if u get the wrong version that doesnot applicable to ur mobile phone i donot have any mobile internet wifi or Bluetooth prob but it my hangs sometimes after receiving the last update when someone call from time to time

  • WARNING GO MOBILE Is dishonest they are under investigation by Orange and other networks for fraud They have been adding phones to business customers accounts that the business did not agree to one company (a small business) they added 5 phones and when caught out they offered a bribe of £1,500 INNOCENT COMPANIES DON'T DO THAT! THIS MAYBE A FRANCHISE BUT ONE BUSINESS MAN BOUGHT 23 OF THE SHOPS MURRAY Although they have not sold me any phones I did pay for a screen saver on order over 4 months ago and I am still waiting I have not cancelled because they were the only retailer in my area that claimed could get WHY A SCREEN SAVER.IS SO RARE FOR THE XE OR EVEN THE ORIGINAL I DON'T KNOW I shop with Car Phone Warehouse because the lads are honest friendly knowledgeable and very helpful Thanks Dan (manager) Dave and Doug

  • I have updated to ics 4.0.3, sense 3.6, s/w no. 3.33.720.106 yesterday. the update was flawless and the phone performance has improved.

  • nooooO

  • Does HTC Sensation XE has Gorilla glass protection ?

  • Is ICS update safe now ?? can I upgrade my sensation xe to ics...it has been a month using this fon... m worried abt reviews saying ics makes d fon sluggish....can anyone help me in this ?? Thanks !!

  • I have unlocked boat loader of my HTC sensation xe and installed ICS english arabic pyramid ROM and working very somoth on my mobile. also my bettary backup improved.

  • It's all because your sensation had a software problem..just upgrading into a new firmware...if still same,maybe your baterry is damaged..change into a new one....

  • I have installed ICS with the help of XDA developer. after unlocking boot loader and installing s off utility i have successful upgraded to ICS arabic and english version. and now my phone battery backup is better than android 2.3.2.

  • Android 4.0.3 is a failure and why HTC used it I DON'T know! I never upgraded to it my phone came with it IT SHOULD NEVER OF COME WITH IT! 4.0.4 IS STABLE and we should of got that! HTC should dismiss all their developers and employ better ones because a beautiful phone which the Sensation XE most certainly is! If the software is poor then the phone becomes a burden! Nokia are fools they still haven't learned rubbish OS = FAILURE I FORECAST THEIR NEW 808 PURE VIEW will be the biggest flop ever £500 for a plastic phone that looks ugly is very fat and runs on an OS that is ancient and specs of a £200 phone res. 360x640 ram 512 processor 1.3GHz single core HTC should remember this when deciding OS upgrades the Sensation XE is a flagship model and should receive all updates for at least 3 years Email Alexander customer services manager at HTC and tell him you want jelly bean and you want it like yesterday

  • thx xD but does the location works without any wifi or data connection ??

  • I was also having lots of issues. Try for a factory reset. This is caused by some malicious softwares u installed. You can backup all ur softwares using astro or any other available

  • can anyone please tell me how to increase the brightness on the videos? when i play the videos it goes dark and even i adjusted the auto-brightness settings.....but still nothing happened!

  • I'm having the same problem, the two companies, o2 and Vodafone, that I spoke to both said that the updates can take up to two months to roll out to everyone, so I'd hang on and wait for a while, it'll be there eventually.

  • Still no software update, has anyone got a suggestion or is the recommendation , I really wonder ...when I try to update my softwear it says "your softwear is up to date" can any one Help?

  • Why do the sensatoin xe restart every 1 hour or 30 min by him self .....please reply

  • just uninstall locations update from play store

  • I just update my sensation xe to ics but when I use my navigation ,its keep reboots itself ...can anyone help me to fix it ?? Pls xD

  • mine did the same,phone is faulty. get in touch with htc themselves and send phone back they will repair, fantastic service from htc

  • Have u tried to visit a htc shop and check the random number dialing .. it might be related to the audio socket or the software .. anyways the shop is definitly going to help .. just an idea :D

  • not really bro, it just randomly calls numbers on its own, i dont know why, even if im using my beats it occasionally calls on its own..

  • Just bought HTC sensation XE, just test the grip. Not affect the network signal but will affect the wireless. When grip the phone near the wireless source, the wireless drop 1 bar only. If I go upstairs (weaker wireless signal), the wireless signal will drop significantly (4 bar) when I grip it. And I also uncomfortable with the extra charge(USD 70++) of beat earphone, it should be given with the phone. The rest not bad. Hopes it last long enough. This is my comments.

  • Yes

  • yeah bro i'm agree with you that sensation xe must get JB.and htc should give JB to us b'coz samsung is rolling out JB for S2. and bro sensation xe grip is more reliable then sensation...

  • we really want this phone to get a jelly beans update, and plz someone using this phone, can tell me weather this sensation xe is having death grip problem or not like sensation.

  • We are waiting for Jelly Bean from HTC.......

  • i had the same problem with my desire hd, i think it is if, like me, you use the phone a lot for music and you keep inserting and taking out the headphone jack it causes it to wear away, can you hear static before it starts ringing people

  • hi.. is anybody experiencing my problem with this handset, when im just playing music (using my beats headset and normal headsets) without any other apps running, the phone suddenly calls a random numbers saved in my contacts for no reason, and it does this every now and then.. can anyone suggest a solution.. ill really appreciate it.. thanks

  • Very good phone, worth getting it, good Memory, fast and responsive, screen gets warm though. The other only thing is the fact that all HTC have WiFi dead spot on top of phone so try too be careful when holding it sideways. It got good music player and beats headphone really effective... 9/10 phone all together. WiFi death grip is really only thing that's currently an issue but good all rounder In web browsing. Tip: don't get ice cream sandwich because it bit buggy in my opinion.. that's all.

  • HI. when jellybeans for sensation xe? I love this phone... Great Phone...Love you...

  • great phone...when u go to browser facebook,u can chat directly...not other phone...best htc....long live htc...i love htc very much....muuuaaaaahhhhhhh

  • Let HTC take their time in completing JellyBean for HTC,especially for BeatsAudio series,for bug-free JellyBean:))

  • EVERYONE EMAIL HTC AND DEMAND JELLYBEAN they listen if ppl demand so let them know you want jellybean

  • I agree the Sensation XE is brilliant and any problems is not the phones fault it's Google's software!

  • i have use a htc xe i have upgrade to 4.03 ice cream sandwich if anyone can tell me how to downgrade to original setting what can i do for it must i use fatory reset to do it :)

  • You'll see improvement if you have problem like me in wifi and bluetooth connections,that update of software of my HTC Sen XE ICS brought back the connectivity functional again.

  • plz refer to your country

  • I am using this HTC phone since 2 weeks and its works awesome.... though the phone is a bit heavy, it attracts thru' its stunning looks, awesome camera and video quality! android OS, big screen, secondary camera, Radio(many HTC phones don't have FM radio), double LED flash, WAP and much more...... But battery back-up is limited(but this is in case of all smart phones and cant be considered as a drawback!!) when played games continuously for 30 to 40 mins with accelerometer, it shows a warning to charge ur battery! Internet browsing is fast.. I will be using the internet most of the times! ofc mail box wil be in sync and facebook will be used 24*7! the phone is decent to charge once a day with 20 mins games, 45 mins video, all time internet , 90 mins of phone calls and other browsing! :) Finally i can conclude that I am very happy with my HTC ;)

  • I got an update (50,79 mb) with system upgrade to 3.33.707.106 Is it will improve the phone's performance?? thanks

  • sony is a good choice. :))

  • After I got the software update last night to my Sensation XE ICS,my SOFTWARE# now is 3.33.707.106,the two minor bugs from ICS update last March were FIXED,literally FIX,the connectivity of my WiFi is fast and the bluetooth sharing and receiving files are back again to normal job..Thank you HTC:)

  • htc

  • Still no software update, has anyone got a suggestion or is the recommendation just sit tight and wait?

  • htc XE sensation OR sony Xperia S ??? camera doesnot matter with me shape and good material and battery life and performance matter with me

  • for me,htc sensation is number one

  • mine htc is verry good,tankyou!

  • I can't use Bluethooth

  • Hm. In that case, go for Samsung galaxy S2 :) because their rivals.

  • Sir, 1x is much expensive from Xe and its out of my budget.

  • I have it.I think it is so better than galaxy note and xperia s

  • I have it.I think it is so better than galaxy note and xperia s

  • Does the phone have a gorilla glass???? Please answer if you know, URGENT!!

  • If interested HTC, just go buy One X bro. If not, buy sony xperia ion.

  • Thanks for that but I did already know and I still haven't got it, Thanks anyway.

  • Thanks for that but I did already know and I still haven't got it, Thanks anyway.

  • Hi Guys, Can i buy this phone? If its not have any issues? Can you please tell me what is the battery time of it? And easy to use? Because i am first on Android before i have BB. Waiting your suggestions & Recomendations. Ahtesham

  • The update is available to everyone you dont need to go to the developers website just follow the steps and your phone should be updated. Menu > Settings "Now Scroll Extreme Down in Settings" > About Phone > Software Update Now click "Check Now" Your phone will now check for updates and it will tell you the latest update available for your phone just click on the update link and it will start downloading it, once done it will be installed and your phone will be updated. Regards, Felix Dsouza

  • I still haven't got update 3.33.707.106, is this just because it hasn't rolled out to me in the UK yet or do I have to got to a developers website to get it? Thanks in advance.

  • Why i have"nt video call with HTC XE

  • Guys. I think our HTC sensation xe with ics official update has been cured! Not totally. Still found a self restart after using dolphin browser with out exit clearing cache/history. Is it normal a behaviour? Gracias HTC :D

  • I did not have this issue

  • Got update to 3.33.707.106 Status ok. Issue that still exist: WiFi reception ranges still low/not in range for some routers. Any inputs everyone? Thx btw HTC. ;D

  • got another Software update for my XE yesterday via OTA. This update for third time after updated to ICS. yesterday with this new software number 3.33.707.106 and anybody knows this update for what? so far my phone running smooth. Thanks in advance

  • I have just been doing some research and in fact Lithium Polymer and Lithium Ion cost the same to manufacture and produce, in some cases Lithium Polymer is actually cheaper! There is no real difference in battery capacity except that Lithium Polymer can go through more charge cycles without losing capacity. Lithium Polymer is also lighter and can be shaped into virtually anything which would help manufacturers make even thinner phones (which personally I don't want them to) because they can mold the battery around the components. In regards to why manufacturers don't use Lithium Polymer, some already do, Apple being one of them along with Sony Ericsson who have it in a few of their devices. There is no perceivable reason that I can see why most manufacturers won't use Lithium polymer other than the fact that they take longer to wear out, but with a lot of current phones having user replaceable batteries, I cannot see that being a big problem. I hope you see reason in these words and do some research before you blurt out any more rubbish next time, thank you!

  • Also where have I said I am a fan of plastic phones, I am not, I hate they're tacky feel, where you got that snippet of information I would like to know!

  • I have not put any of the opinions you have just rambled at me about in that comparison of the two phones. I simply told them the specs and to go on to YouTube if they want to see a comparison between the two Android Skins. What you are having a go at me for I find hard to understand. Please enlighten me if you so wish.

  • Hey guys..I got this phone and I saw theres written Made in China. As I know,HTC is a Taiwan product and my sensation was frm Taiwan,but this XE is not. But its running good,no difference from my previous Sensation. Is it a super copy??? But its very good to use I saw,not trouble...strong android. I just bit confused abt production place..pls explain if any1 get like me

  • salam.. guys i have this phone and i went to update how can i update the device... sorry for english

  • it's a super phone ove corse games are good

  • can some1 convince me to buy this fone? i have no doubt in terms of sound/music but games are good on this mobile. how about browsing? Xperia S or Sensation XE?

  • hello... I have this device and my android version is 4.0.3 there is one more OTA update around 60MB which i have problem instaling i can't install it. So my question is which version of android is latest for this device. THX

  • which one i should buy? xperia sola or htc sensation xe??

  • HTC customer services and tech support is the 3rd worse in the world Apple is the worse and Google 2nd and they should be ashamed.

  • I just recently updated my software to ICS but it's kinda slow. If i'll do a factory reset, does it necessarily mean that i should include the memory card while doing it? Or is it okay to action factory reset without the SD card? Which is which? help...

  • I recently updated my HTC to the new 4.0... I love it but i think it consumes a lot of battery.. My handset got quickly drained. But I still love my HTC though!

  • On the Android market and some are even free just like the developer who doesn't place adverts on the books he\she offers mostly Charles Dickens Batteries firstly most manufacturers put lithium ion when there is lithium polymer a much better form but cost more also I am sure there is a far better material available but battery manufacturers don't want it profit would drop Just like the common cold they have researched it for over 100 years but claim they can't solve the problem that's rubbish the reason is they make obscene amounts of profit by selling worthless junk. Tyres is another one they have the knowledge to make everlasting tyres but they don't care about saving lives they make obscene profits I would like to know how old you are and what field you work in?

  • DO YOU EVEN HAVE A CLUE WHAT FORMATTING YOUR MEMORY CARD WOULD DO IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING ON THERE? It would delete everything on the card and you don't have to anyway all you should do is remove your memory card before updating and that is only a precaution because it should be no problem anyway Google are not obtuse they know music photographs videos can only be stored on a memory card so when they upgrade Android they make sure it's compatible with previous versions DON'T TELL PPL. TO DO DANGEROUS THINGS

  • If your such a fan of plastic phones why didn't you stretch your budget? Samsung Galaxy S II has 4.0.3 not 4.0.4 I know ppl who own the fashion plastic phone You must have a tiny wink because your obsessed with numbers YOU CAN'T MAKE A COMPARISON ON WHAT VERSION SENSE 3.6 TOUCH WIZ 4 THEY ARE TOTALLY DIFFERENT SYSTEMS and most ppl prefer sense even Samsung lovers wish they had sense instead of touch wiz I don't know what phone you own but it does not sound like you own an XE from your whinging about a top quality SUPERPHONE MOST OF YOUR PROBLEMS PPL ARE NOT THE PHONES FAULT THEY ARE CAUSED BY THIRD PARTY APPS AND APPS THAT THE DEV. HASN'T UPGRADED TO RUN ON 4.0+

  • this phone really started to get on my nerves after the update. wifi is not working always on error mode, got slow as hell, and guess what? even the widget and apps are not optional any more..blanc..nothing..!!!!

  • i recently brought my htc sensation xe.with in one month i had a pblm on on/off button and they replaced the mother board.and now my mbl is suddenly blanking but still the buttons at the bottom are glowing.when i took the mobile to the service center they change the software but the pblm is still continuing..i used the mobiles in nokia and sony..but i didnt experince this like problems..in nokia just there is a software pblm and they will rectify it within halfan hour..but in htc they are taking one day...worst service..

  • xloud vs beat audio?? which one is nice.. beacuse i confuse which one to buy.

  • All Sensation Xe users. before updating your phone to ics.... please format your memory card from phone n then make factory restore. After that download and install your ics...... 100% no issue with ICS all games running perfectly and dnt found any lag.

  • hey guys, when i look at the task (killer)manager that phone comes with it show total memory 583MB with a free about 140-160MB is this normal? i mean were are the 700+ ram? and btw the phone came new out of the box with ICS 4.0.3 and HTC sense version 3.6 with a 16gb SD card

  • Even Mine started running slow after the ICS update, I tried doing a factory reset, guess what it started working awesome.

  • The day i upgraded my sensation xe to ICS it got slow.. and dont knw wats wrong from past 1 month its not working no display..

  • It is fantastic, really pure and clean, gets rid of all the background static and you almost forget you have headphones in!

  • how the beats audio performance??

  • how to adjust the time,i want to change the time zone thanks

  • Upgradable, but dot try as it cause more damage to phone, the iCs verson of XE isnot yet stabilised, so even if it software udate is available, it would be wise if you dont prefer it.

  • S2 is the favourinte in second hand market, guess and find the reason, why people are selling S2 after only a few months of use. Or just check the opinion about S2 in GSM arena. About XE, I sold it for half price after 1 month, u dont get fascinated by the features. Once you buy, you will get irritated with the issues. It got some inherent restarting issues, wifi issues, connecting to android market(could be virus j just check 'waiting for install android' in google to find the issues in XE. No known solution is found yet. These issues appears, only if you are connected in internet, else it is amazing and awsome. Also, its incall colume and singnal range is no so good. Everything else is great. Battery backup is desent. If you still need XE, go for a second hand, to avoid the great difference when you sell it !

  • You can install jet audio to get a wide range of equilisers, but witout Beats audio support

  • Ya,coj Samsung used super AMOLED display tht is very bright evn in lowest resolution! Bt HTC got the strongest hardware.Have u ever thrown ur S2 coj of any anger? I have thrown my XE once,but got not evn a single spot. If it was a plastic body Galaxy, I might suffer in long run...

  • Phone is awesome, I would give it a 4.5 out of five I have to issues but - Louder Speaker output is low (suggest any solution if anyone has ) - Battery really sucks (I only get 6-7 hrs out my battery )

  • If you care about having the latest Android updates, I'd recommend S2 over XE... HTC always abandon their previous phones. Moreover, Samsung already conformed the Jellybean update for the S2. S2's camera is a bit better than XE's [personal experience] Anyway, it's up to you to decide...

  • can i ask? is there any equlizer in htc sensation xe ?? sorry for my english

  • Here is a comparison, you decide which one has the features and specs that you want. On play.com they are the same price - £385 approximately - that is brand new and unlocked. The HTC Sensation XE has beats audio, so if you are a big music listener, that is a good reason to go for that phone over the S2. They both have 4.3 inch screens but the HTC Sensation XE has a ppi of 256 whereas the Galaxy S2 has a ppi of just 217. But the S2 has a super AMOLED plus display with deeper blacks and better colour reproduction compared to the Sensation XE's S-LCD display. The Sensation XE and the Galaxy S2 run android 4.0 (The XE runs 4.0.3 whereas the S2 runs 4.0.4). The XE runs HTC Sense 3.6 whereas the S2 runs Samsung Touchwiz 4.0. Look up videos on YouTube or test out the phones to see which one you prefer. The XE has a 1.5GHz dual core Snapdragon S3 processor whereas the S2 has a 1.2GHz dual core Exynos processor. I would say that there was not much noticeable difference between the 2 as although the S2 is clocked at a lower speed, Exynos is faster than Snapdragon s3. The battery life is about the same due the the XE's bigger battery but more demanding processor and screen. The both have 8MP cameras with 1080p HD video. The XE has a VGA front facing camera and the S2 has a 2MP front facing camera. Both of the cameras have LED flash. I personally would recommend the XE because I am a fan of HTC Sense and I love the premium build quality, but that is totally up to personal preference. If you can stretch your budget a bit go for a Galaxy S3 or a HTC One X/S.

  • 2 things 1. Where can you legally and legitimately buy full HD films for £1 And 2. Where is this magical material for making ridiculous capacity batteries that would fit in the back of a smartphone!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

  • Xe or S2 ? Please, tell me the reasons for your choice.

  • not yet..... just wait and see that when htc announce jelly bean for our htc's........

  • Lol your changing what you originally said. With the iPhone it's fashion for them not real substance and most of them purchase 8 or 16 because they can't afford the higher ones! They have to use off phone storage pc or cloud I DON'T find that acceptable and now that 32 gigabyte cards don't cost £99.99 (which is what I paid) but £29.99 and now 64 are out and 128 on the way I bet they become even cheaper and a lot of ppl will have several and DVD will start to die because if you can carry approximately 30 films around on each card and the card is the cost of 2 DVD's and you can buy films for approximately £1 you will then have 30 films for the price of 4 and storage the size of a finger nail. All they need to do now is forget lithium and make a battery from a material that will hold a charge enough to run our devices for years and be the same size so we can just swap battery and away we go

  • Only a minor one that was released a few weeks ago, it didn't seem to do anything though!

  • After the ics update, are there another updates for sensation xe?

  • After the ics update, are there another updates for sensation xe?

  • I think you are getting the wrong end of the stick here my rather feisty friend! I also believe it would be nice if storage was expandable on all devices. What I am trying to get across is that when people see that a device, such as the HTC One S or Asus Google Nexus 7, have 16GB non expandable storage, someone who uses their phone as a media device, such as myself, looks at that and thinks that it is not enough storage. But the majority of people only have 16GB or less on their SD cards. The problem is that as soon as something is non expandable, it becomes something that the customer cannot control or change, and that annoys people, myself being one of them. But I have looked at the amount of storage I use on my phone and actually, 16GB would in fact be sufficient. For you it may not, but going back to my previous point, people manage perfectly fine with 8GB and 16GB iPhones, in fact they are the best sellers, so for a lot of people 16GB is plenty enough. And the reason I am using iPhones as an example in these discussions is that they are very popular and one of the first mobile devices to use non expandable storage. On a further note, I do not have a Facebook account as I have an email address and phone number and I believe that to be perfectly sufficient. On a final word, I appreciate that you are disagreeing with what I say, and at the end of the day, these forums are very good for that. What I do not appreciate is the fact that this discussions of opinions has been turned into an argument by yourself. I am perfectly happy to continue this discussion, but hopefully in a more relaxed manner that people who are reading this can appreciate.

  • Upgradable to jelly bean do you mean because my sensation XE came with ICS 4.0.3 and sense 3.6

  • HTC Sensation XE is a flagship SUPERPHONE HTC One V is a budget smartphone They are worlds apart and aimed at totally different ppl.

  • Sense 3.6 you would not want sense 4 it's a paired down version and you loose some important features

  • xe defenetly

  • I am using HTC Sensation XE with ICS and latest HTC Sense. It's really awesome with smooth touch even better than Galaxy SII. I really love it.

  • Hi guy How to restore factory setting on my Sensation XE?

  • How to restore factory setting on my Sensation XE?

  • does the batery need any special treatment when out of the box to last more? like drain batery until phone shuts down at first and so on.. for 2-3 times and keep it charged for 10-12h with phone closed? any feedback on this .. would this make your batery last more ?

  • There is some lagginess on my XE. I don't have much apps, just normal usage. Please help guys.

  • It is upgradable to ICS 4.0.3 but it is only upgradable up to HTC Sense 3.6 not 4.0

  • Sensation XE is much better, even though it can't get HTC Sense 4.0 it has a bigger, higher resolution screen, more RAM, a much much faster processor and a bigger battery!

  • is it upgradable to Ics with sense 4.0 ?

  • sensation XE or one V??? Plz help

  • Yes and has been since the 10th of March 2012, so whatever country you are in you should be able to get it by now.

  • is sensation XE is upgradable to ice cream sandwich...?

  • Just to wrap all this up, I have never once said that 16GB of storage is enough for everyone, I said it was enough for YOUR AVERAGE USER, which it is, 350 apps and games of varying sizes, around 500 photos, 30 1080p videos and 150-200 songs of a good quality. I think that would just about do most people and that takes up around 11-12GB, so there is a bit of space left over for a film or two or whatever else you fancy sticking on your device. That is the kind of stuff an average user would have on their phone. Yes, I agree, it would have been nice if HTC did a 32GB One S. But people manage perfectly fine with 8GB iPhones, so it is obviously plenty enough storage for most people. As for Samsung being made out of cheap, tacky materials, yes, I agree and I don't like it, but obviously a lot of people do as Samsung had 29.1% mobile phone market share in the first quarter of 2012. And I agree with you that iPhone screens should be bigger, but again, we are not part of the mainstream opinion as Apple had 24.1% of the mobile phone market share in the first quarter of 2012. And, finally, as for me misleading people, I am not. I look at what I do/use, I then do some research to see what other people do/use then I formulate a response from that. As for what you have said, that has all been in YOUR opinion, which is fine, but don't try and make it sound like your opinion is the final verdict on everything, because it isn't. I hope that has cleared things up. Feel free to reply if you really want to drag this on any further.

  • If the price drops in certain countries WHO DO YOU THINK HAS TO PAY FOR IT? We do in USA and EUROPE! We don't want to anymore so you want an high end phone PAY WHAT WE HAVE TO!

  • If the price drops in certain countries WHO DO YOU THINK HAS TO PAY FOR IT? We do in USA and EUROPE! We don't want to anymore so you want an high end phone PAY WHAT WE HAVE TO!

  • YOUR REALLY OBTUSE! Samsung are made of cheap plastic would never purchase such a product! Apple are useless they still have a 3.5" screen size what loosers! Memory if you have what you say then you must have low grade apps etc., I have MP3's at 128kbps! I have games that use over 500MB so no memory slot is useless. Your misleading ppl and I stick by this!

  • yes i have use this mobile very good mobile & no any one problem

  • Hi, I have upgrade my HTC Sensation XE to ICS. And its run perfectly and smoothly without any problem. ICS is much better than gingerbread for sure XD but be prepare to accept the new home screen outlook. Do get the full review of the ICS on HTC Sensation XE before you upgrade because there's no 'uninstall' selection for you to go back to gingerbread. I do make some changes for my home screen after the upgrading. I downloaded Go Launcher EX, Ice Cream Sandwich Theme and Ice Cream Sandwich keyboard. So far my HTC Sensation XE is runnung fine XD

  • Go to www.htcdev.com and have a look for any software updates on there

  • i had a lg2x witch i changed for this sensation xe,best choise so far, in call sound is crispy clear

  • If you want your precious adult features why would you buy an HTC in the first Place?!?! Why not a developers edition galaxy s3 or a Nexus device of some kind, those devices are designed to be messed around with! Most people who know stuff about phones buy an HTC for HTC Sense because it is beautiful and smooth, they want that, they don't want to mess around with it! And you cannot decide what looks better out if the two, it is completely up to personal preference! In regard to speed, it is only affected by your network speed if you are using an app or feature that requires a data connection! As for memory, I have a total of just over 15 Gigabytes including internal, I have a lot of photos and video, a medium sized music collection and over 300 apps of varying sizes and I still have a total of around 4 gigabytes left. And I can't imagine most people having all that plus another 4 gigabytes of stuff! Also the HTC One S comes with a decent package of drop box space so that can be used to store photos and videos among other things! And finally, iPhones and other iOS devices are not made revolving around childs features, they are made to be simple to use and easy to learn. I hope that has cleared up any doubts people have had about this, please reply if you feel the ness to carry this on further.

  • I've had a very successful ICS update to my HTC Sensation XE. If your update doesn't work well, you can take it to a technician to downgrade it.

  • better if the price drop 50% :Dd

  • for games imho is still acceptable for dual core smartphone. i play backstab/world of goo/need for speed hot pursuit, they all run well. planning to try GTA 3.

  • It does have the 700 odd but some is for the system only HTC SHOULD make this clear it's like when you buy a memory card it states 32 but you get 29 odd to use the law should change to force companies to be honest.

  • Take them to court if what your saying is correct they are crooks.

  • Speed is also down to your network and most are bloody slow so your misleading people and sense 4 is rubbish and I would never update to it for a start IN THE CAMERA THEY HAVE REMOVED THE AUTO FOCUS POSITION CONFIRMATION SO YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOUR ACTUALLY FOCUSING SOMEONE AT HTC THINKS LIKE YOU OBTUSE. The Sensation XE looks better than the one s and is better and you don't have a clue what your talking about! Memory also you don't have a clue I have a 32 card and used over 17 already so 16 and that's all is very limited and you only get 12 odd to use yourself anyway HTC SHOULD STOP GETTING IDEAS FROM THAT CHILD'S PHONE APPLE MAKE, Android users are mostly adults and we require adult features not child features.

  • yes 100%

  • I have this phone, and I recommend him to everybody :))

  • I'm getting a brand new XE in 72hrs. From what you guys are saying about the ICS update of having wifi and unwanted restarts, I would like to know from those who have had a successful ICS update about their source. If I happen to get no reliable reply, I'm going to use the pre-installed Gingerbread until further notice. I'm in Ghana. Please help me. Thanks.

  • is HTC sensation XE also a gorilla glass? im wondering because there protection written in its specification

  • I just want to know the user available memory is worth for average games and apps..? Is there anyone who can answer who had experience

  • no actually,but...i am going 2 buy,do u recommend it?!

  • How is ICS update in HTC sensation XE? any bugs? Any comments?

  • No the HTC Sensation XE is not better! The looks are up to you obviously but in terms of specs, the HTC One S has around the same battery life, the same screen, a massively faster processor although it is clocked at the same speed, newer software and because it is newer it will be better supported for longer in the future. In regard to the 16 Gigabyte non expandable storage, usually people only have a 16 gigabyte Micro SD Card anyway so for most people 16 Gigabytes should be plenty!

  • I bought an HCT sensation in Vatan Computer in TURKEY and after use of 10 days, much dust started under touch screen display, and I gave service that is Teleservice (very bad service, do not buy anything warrantied by TELESERVICES) in TURKEY, also I desired them to get money back, because this is my right, laws give this right to me in TURKEY, so they do not want to give my money back and they gave me HTC sensation XE with respect to their saying, that is pleasing for customer, and also I didnt admit then I resent smartphone which was given to me (HTC sensation XE) but I must say that The phone given is not in original box and accessories, with old things was given only thing changed is the phone however you cannot understand whether the phone is original, not cloned or any changing parts such as screen,cover, battery etc. , there is no any sign about this phone is original, and the service defines in report that the cover is changed and battery also is changed, so how can I know this phone is original and why not this phone is given original box as you know Sensation XE has beats audio headphone, this application is not applicable, who can admit like this behaviour ? last thing is that Sensation Xe also has some dust and boiling when running.Huh? neither VATAN Computer and TELESERVICE are no interested with this issue. they do not want to look and interest with this problem. so do not buy anything warrantied by TELESERVICE and from Vatan Computer

  • No that isn't normal, it sounds like the electric current coming in from charging is passing through the the vibrating system and causing it to go off. I'm not sure what you can do about this other than to take it to a technician. I woulod recommend doing that as having the vibrator on for hours at a time will make charging take a lot longer as vibrating uses a lot of power and will wear down the vibrator, causing it to be less effective when you want it to notify you of something.

  • Beware when you want to update to ics with this phone. Because it has 2 fatal side effect: wifi error and self restart when you close an app. Please fix this issue HTC.. im beggin ya'... My country is indonesia and i really love my sensation xe...

  • I totally agree with you after i upgraded to ICS i found out on the default task manager pre-installed by htc it says 583MB of total RAM then i see 103MB free isnt this phone suppost to have 768MB of RAM and i remember i used to have atleast 200MB of RAM left.

  • hi dears..... I just want to know that which ics version is safe and works good on sensation xe???? kindly help me I want to update my sensation xe GB to ICS....plz help me....

  • Does htc sensation works with mac os X lion

  • I updated my Sensation XE last June 16 to ICS, and I think it's cooler & faster than Gingerbread. However, I think ICS is eating more RAM than Gingerbread.WiFi & bluetooth are working fine.I'm from the Philippines.

  • Yes it's the 4.0.3 version Google issued with many bugs they are a DISGRACE!

  • You bought a second hand phone and from a person who treated it rough SECOND HAND IS ALWAYS A BAD MOVE! THEN YOU BLAME THE PHONE well your an obtuse cheap skate don't blame the phone

  • wow.. Cant wait for that.. :)

  • I BOUGHT IT JUNE 2012 and it came with 4.0.3 and sense 3.6 and in July I HAVE had a settings and software upgrade over the air BUT do you know if HTC will give us jelly bean? They should because Android 4.0.3 is a cockup and has numerous bugs

  • Check For New Update ... It Solved !!! In Android 4.0.3 Update :|

  • today I got ics update on xe. Now my xe is working very smoothly..I love this ics update

  • Today I got ics update on my sensation xe. Now its working very smooth..... I love this update.

  • I use an XE, just got a fairly used one already upgraded to ICS 4.03 but my wifi does not work. once i turn wifi on, nothing shows up and when i scan nothing happens. pls help.

  • To all HTC Sensation XE users here is the Good news for all ya Android 4.0 ICS is rolling out >>>http://tech2.in.com/news/smartphones­/htc-rolls-out-ics-update-for-sensation-xe-in-in­dia/324072

  • Gorilla Glass just means it is slightly flexible and a bit more shatterproof than normal glass. It is a nice thing to have but you shouldn't buy a phone just because it has Gorilla Glass.

  • Yes VGA

  • Yes and when it gets hot it gets hot on the front not the back, I asked my friend who also has one and he said the same thing.

  • No...because his using a microwave oven:)

  • ICS finally available at Sensation XE INDIA//(i am in Kerala)

  • do u have sensation xe

  • im using this phone and when i start using apps the phone starts to heat up from the back is this normal??????????? plz tell quickly so that i can get it checked if its not normal...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I don't know about the loading every time you go back to the home screen problem. But in regard to the 'Android is Upgrading'problem, I used to have that, I gave my phone a good clear out, getting rid of any un-necessary apps and that stopped, so try that. If that doesn't work I can't help you, sorry.

  • That seems to be a problem with your handset in particular, my microphone on my HTC Sensation XE is perfectly good quality.

  • It should be the front by the capacitive buttons that heats up if anything. Not the back, I would get that looked at if I were you.

  • That is a bit weird, if anything the front should be getting hot, not the back. I would get that looked at if I were you...

  • You can get it on the CeX website for £280 unlocked good condition, or, for the same price, you can get an HTC One S unlocked, good condition. Your choice.

  • If you have a rooted phone and that screen comes up then it means the phone is dead and there is pretty much nothing you can do. If you take it to a phone mechanic they might be able to help you but it is un-likely. If you do not have a rooted phone and that screen comes up I have no idea what it means and I recommend taking it to a phone mechanic.

  • I didn't understand you, is it good for my phone to be rooted, becouse you said that if it is then phone is dead

  • Kindly rephrase your question......... Get a key

  • So guys is this phone worth the money?

  • Have u got any solution?

  • Is your phone rooted? If it is then that phone is dead. If it isn't rooted I cannot help you, sorry.

  • God! You people go on about death grip all the time! IF YOU COVER AN AERIAL IT WILL LOSE SOME SIGNAL!!!!!!!!!!!! That is just a fact of life so please stop talking about death grip as if there is anything anyone can do about it. If you want no death grip then get a phone with an external aerial like a walkie-talkie! If you don't want one of them you will simply have to put up with it!

  • You can go to forum like xda developers and go to the Sensation section, since it will be different step or method on what version of Android or firmware etc. you are using.

  • Hey man, did it fix the SIGNAL'S DEATH GRIP ISSUE?? Sorry for my english :)

  • do a factory reset it will solve the problem

  • Can anyone teach me how to root android phones? My bf has a Sensation but not XE and it costs too much to root a phone but I better do it my self besides I'm a techie person too but then I just don't know how to root a phone and install those kernel stuffs. I do have an XE, its rooted and everything but I just want to update my bf's phone.

  • update of ics will take how much time to come in india..i m very pissed of now

  • It is an awesome device but it is not a good phone, my phone had network problems with gsm and WiFi for no reason is losses signal ,the screen stops to respond at times and when someone calls you and your phone is locked then you won't be able answer.,besides this it will alway reboot once in three days and sometimes the phone will ring endlessly with the screen off and the buttons won't work and the only way to stop it is to remove the battery,and the battery cover makes noise my phone's battery had swelled just after a week I bought it.It's screen had been replaced ones and it is dew for replacement as the service center doesn't have the parts so it will take another month for the parts to arrive.I forgot about overheating and it become unbearable to holed or keep it in the pocket THANK GOD it turns iitself off .the inearphones one of the reasons why I bought it will loose It's volume output in the left one and it had been replaced and now I can't use it for answering calls as it starts to play songs ,it is the only way to answer calls because the screen won't respond I wish it was reliable.No update of ice cream in India forget Jelly Bean.

  • I have ICS 4.0.3 on my xe. Today I checked for updates and there was 60.53Mb system update, I downloaded it and clicked instal now. Phone restarted and then he stuck on image with phone and ! sign next to him. Can anyone help me !??? Thanks

  • just got this phone a 5 days back so far im loving using this phone. in my opinion this is one of the best smart phone, and i love it. good speed good display good sound and fine battery, the only negative thing about this phone is that it starts to overheat from the the back after an application for 15 to 20min, apart from this problem this is a really good phone.

  • g to wireless networks, mobile then choose gsm only. that saves battery life and phone would get better signals. just turn it to automatic again if you would be using internet.

  • wherre r u from dude?

  • I think if given this phone another update such as ICS 4.0.4 or Jelly Bean 4.1,all problem will be fix:-),What do you think?

  • Durability and stability is what Sensation XE for,a great buy indeed:)

  • with No doubt XE is more better than S2.. go for XE

  • Hey Guy,x...i am stuck between 2 phone,s..HTC Sensation XE and SAMSUNG S2...Can any1 tell me that i buy which Phone?? Sensation XE or S2?? Thank,s.

  • My android version is 4.0.3 too. 2 days go I received a 60 mb update and change my software number and installing takes 15 mins. then my wireless fixed and work very fine. its strong wireless... go setting==> about phone==> software update... check. if there is update go for it. if not, go to htc.com and choose your phone and chat with agent. I chatted with them several times.

  • Are you sure. .I tried to update but nothing happend! my softwere version is 4.0.3 ics

  • Is it normal if my the upper and lower part of my phone vibrates when it is charging?ur reply will really much appreciated. Thanks

  • I tried to update it but there is nothing.

  • XE is the best phone I've had..from build quality to durability to toughness (I've dropped it intentionally numerours numbers of times headfirst, galss first,,and on the side)to performance..value for money..its performance is still at par with the new phones that have been coming out..htc one x and XE are even proced the same in some stores..

  • New Update fixing Wi-Fi problem Released for ics 4. Update and enjoy it... very Nice phone...

  • the perfect smart phone i have ever seen....bestest performance.....nd gr8 experience......

  • Ice cream sandwich is a complete mess up and it's GOOGLE'S fault they think they have the right to put out rubbish software before ready and fix as the complaints arrive. They should be locked up and the key thrown away I bought my phone for the phone and wish HTC would make their own OS its Google that cause all the problems

  • yes that's it..try to kill some of the running apps in the task manager..when you see loading when u go back to the home page you're RAM is almost used up..kill the android services and settings in the advanced part of the task manager.it uses up a lot of RAM making your XE slow down.if you find it inconvenient then you can go back to gingerbread.. the only change i do not like with the ICS is that there are times when my XE restarts..it removes the songs from my playlist..so i have to rebuild it again.. another is that I experience death grip issue from time to time.. but overall.. i am satisfied with it from quality to performance.. heck..there's no such thing as a perfect phone.. =)

  • They should buy a new phone,you can hear them clearly and the other end can't,the phone speaker on the other end has a problem not your XE.

  • Hi ,dears my htc sensation XE doesn,t have update to android 4 last month when i checked it it has update but now it say,s no update available what should i do help me!

  • Hi there, yes some time if i go back to homepage there is Loading image appear.I have notice that ever since i up graded my phone the system turn up to be slow not as before. especially if i want to make a call or check my mail. meaning from one application to others.I wonder if i can go back the my original vision 2.3.4?

  • Thanks man! my phone's ram is 200 mb or or more in average. Love the app!!

  • Dear HTC, I hope that the HTC Sensation XE got the JellyBean upgrade. The ICS still not too stable for me, still not solved the signal's death grip issue. But the camera is better than before. (hopefully for better RAM management) that's all, thanks for your understanding. (Sorry for my english) :)

  • Dear HTC, I hope that the HTC Sensation XE got the JellyBean upgrade. The ICS still not too stable for me, still not solved the signal's death grip issue. But the camera is better than before.

  • Hello Guys, i have a problem on my Sensation XE after updating to ICS, my update version is 4.0.3, the problem in Skype video chat, when we do voice call the opponent can't see the clear video, the whole video come yellowish colour before in Ginger bread version it was not like this, SO GUYZ HELP ME HO TO SOLVE THIS, IS THIS A SKYPE PROBLEM OR HANDSET PROBLEM, DOES ANYBODY FACING PROBLEM LIKE THIS?????

  • when you have this phone knowing that it will have a lot of problems when you update it into ICS, then dont update. just use the phone with its original OS. i noticed that most of the comments here are telling us about the problems regarding ICS. when HTC has the solution to the problems, that is the time you should update. wait for the opinions of other people and weigh your options.

  • xe microphone sucks.. when in conversation, other people cant hear our voice clearly..

  • fix the wifiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.

  • I had the same problem i found if you have game apps they will slow the phone down & cause the loading issue's or to many apps runing at any time!!!

  • Yes much better than one s it looks like a flagship phone unless one s is not a flagship phone but one x is and it is ugly

  • Yes I do and it's annoying it started with 4.0 we got 4.0.3 there is a 4.0.4 which is stable but 4.0.3 is not and HTC should not of giving an stable upgrade just to claim we upgraded you to ICS.

  • there should be another update after you upgrade to ICS? do you see loading everytime you go back to the home screen? also when you restart do you see the "android is upgrading" notification?

  • HELLO,,HTC fans..u have to check..i using htc XE..now i upgrading to 4.0 ICS...but become slow ,,,everthing slow down...go APP,,go GALLERY,,,go SETTING,,,go shotcut all same,,,,can anybody tell how to so tha problem?,,,or can i turn back to sensetion XE original Android 2.3.7version,,,.,,help pls.... htc fans

  • Dear HTC When can u release Jelly Bean for HTC Sensation XE Thnx

  • the lights should only be red. it could possibly be a factory defect. you can use it whilst charging. just ensure you complete one complete battery cycle per month as not to shorten battery life i'm on ICS..

  • am using HTC Sensation XE for almost a year now, and my phone fools down and my glass has broken, can i get any help how to fix it? it works fine but i don't enjoy how its looks please help me.

  • I have same problem anyone have answer for that ? THX

  • i bought this phone but i dont liked useless.......

  • INDIAN Customers... Any ICS Upgrade news.....?????? OR Anyone get rooted on Official ICS ???

  • The XE is far better than the one s and feels better and looks better

  • So what you just had 2 small faults the phone is great and has sold millions so some will be faulty and it's most likely the factory worker is useless and should be dismissed

  • So what you just had 2 small faults the phone is great and has sold millions so some will be faulty and it's most likely the factory worker is useless and should be dismissed

  • My lights when lit are pink not red I want them red I asked at what heat level would there be a danger of the phone exploding? Can you use your phone while charging? Without it going nuts. Which software version have you got?

  • I think your insane comparing a child's phone with a flagship superphone
