  • Coming to Lebanon: Galaxy S2 and HTC Sensation!

I love my Sensation more and more, it has a class that sgs2 will never have!
Just put each of them in a hand ad you will see what I mean...
Every review on the internet confirms that the galaxy s2 is better overall than the sensation.
is it a wise choice to switch from the sensation to SG2?

depends on what deal you are getting, but generally speaking no as both are of the same tier some small +- on both sets.
''On the paper specs'' is something and in real life practice it's another thing, it's like if you tell me a high end Kia which has a big engine,plenty of gadgets and cool stuffs is better than a BMW mid-level with one or 2 gadgets less... ;)

hey guys ..iam new to android and really want to know what to buy now either samsung galaxy s2 or the htc sensation,,,i noticed from older posts that people like both phones and i just want to know whats the best between them just by giving me the disadvantages and problems that have been faced by one of these phones that makes it dominant to the other one
You really wanna google and see the different reviews there to make up your mind. the galaxy s2 is still arguably the best smartphone still winning gadget of the year award. having both the htc sensation and s2 at home i can tell you without a second thought to go for the s2.my bro wishes he did. keep in mind that this is my personal opinion and i have my reasons.pm me if you have any questions
i googled it and checked out that many people had lag problems with the htc sensation and few with the samsung galaxy s2....and since u r telling me urs is better then thx my friend i'll go with the s2 :)
I live in France, so I don't know about Lebanon 3G connectivity.

I owned a SGS2 for the past month, I have absolutely no complaints about it. So far.

I've owned both, and both are great. You should know that the interface of the sensation (sense) is way way better than the touchwiz of the samsung, i think its the best interface available on any phone. However, the galaxy s2 is a more powerful phone, very snappy, and the screen is so amazing. Overall i prefer the galaxy s2, but if you want the best software ( you have to try it to see for urself) go for the sensation.
thx alot man, i've tried the htc sensation and its interface is the best ,,but thats the only thing thats better than the galaxy s2...So iam happy to buy an s2 now ,,,the seller is goin to sell it for 470$ without a waranty but he will give me the flip flop leather cover for it :)
as beautiful as sense is to look at, it is way too ram hungry. i find it better to use one of the launchers available through the market. where are you finding it for 470$?new? best i could get was 520$ for it. i bought mine from private cell in dikweneh
Just use a custom Sense rom on Sensation to get more speed or...flash CM7 or MIUI rom and you will have a Sensation as fast as sgs2 (and better UI)
This is why I LOVE Android

i'd really love to see this. having tried cm7 from alpha 6 to 10 and latest miui and android revolution hd on my brother's sensation, it hasn't been anywhere near as smooth as my galaxy s2. 3d games like blood and glory lag on the sensation while they run very smooth on my sgs2, and all fps benchmarks support this. example: egypt pro on gl benchmark2.1 runs smoothly at 55fps while it runs at 24 fps for him. please try to run it and report back.as i said before i'd love to make his phone faster but it's just not happening. tried a bunch of roms with custom kernel's including the bricked and faux kernels and overclocked the phone to 1.73ghz and still my 1.2ghz were much faster.
