HTC Sensation Product Review

ReviewEverywhere.Blogspot.Com
HTC has finally released their first Android phone  already  uses two-core processor, Sensation. This product is not only powerful, but also has an enchanting appearance. Let's review one by one.

Design and Interface
Initial grasp of this phone, we enamored with the look of the entire surface, fairly thin but comfortable grip. No doubt a solid impression reinforced by the combination of aluminum and plastic materials in the back.

In HTC Sensation is not a lot of physical buttons attached. There is no menu or the like, not even dedicated camera keys, only volume and power buttons at the top.

HTC Sensation has dimensions of 4.3-inch screen with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels. Quite large indeed, but not difficult menggengamnya users in one hand. The form that carries no angle also managed to hide a big impression on this phone.

For interfaces, this phone has been carrying the HTC Sense version 3.0, so it is very different from that of previous HTC products.

Animated home screen movement in it looks interesting, maybe because the HTC Sense 3.0 already take advantage of GPU performance for each animation.

There are some additional shortcuts in the Sensation that no other HTC phones. Eg 4 applications of existing shortcut on the lock screen, and these are all tailored to the needs of users.

Given further into the interior. HTC also provides direct the Quick Settings menu located next to the bar notification. Its contents, some settings like turn on Bluetooth, Wifi, GPS, Mobile Network, and the new is the Task Manager to close unused applications.

The entire application on the HTC Sensastion can be displayed in three categories: the entire application, frequently used applications, and third-party applications that users downloaded. In addition other view is not much different from other HTC phones.

High Class Specifications
HTC Sensastion was spelled carries a very high specification. For processors, are already using Qualcomm's Snapdragon MSM 8260 dual core 1.2 Ghz, 768 MB RAM memory, GPU Adreno 220, and an 8MP camera. But unfortunately, only 1GB of storage capacity.

To find out just how tough this phone to process heavy applications, we tested through several benchmark applications such as Quadrant AnTuTu Benchmark v1.1.7 and v2.0.1. The result?

On the application AnTuTu Benchmark Sensation HTC managed to carve figures of 4550, while on the Quadrant only get 2173. Not the fastest in its class indeed, but quite tough devour even the heaviest applications. For the record, Quadrant application does not recognize specs of this phone well .

Camera and Audio Quality
HTC Sensation has a major 8MP camera in the back that are capable of shooting images at a resolution of 3264x2448 pixels, equipped with autofocus and LED flash light for two more brilliant picture. While the front there is a small camera resolution 640X480 pixels.

Shots of this phone outside the room look good and fast, but unfortunately the picture look less sharp. But if it is used for recording video, the result is very good at a resolution of 1080p @ 30fps.

To-quality sound, do not expect much on the internal speaker output because it is not designed for music but when heard through headphones or speakers, wuihh .. dentumannya loud sounds. As a support to the phone also has support SRS technology.

Battery Power
Dual core dizzy pretty much identical to the wasteful consumption of the battery, then what about the HTC Sensation?

First, we use this phone as the second gadget, which means only use limited to browsing, email, social networking and the other without a phone call or SMS. And it turns out, this phone can survive 21 hours with a 3G connection that is always online.

And second, we use as the primary phone for use as needed daily. The results are pretty much adrift, HTC Sensation only lasted about 10 hours.

In conclusion, HTC Sensation does offer all the features that are rare on phones in its class, ranging from the elegant compact design to a number of interesting features. The phone is also priced at a fairly reasonable price, USD 5.5 million. Interested in having?
