      Well nice big brick. I dont get it these things are tablet size now. Though nice package and screen etc all very good cant say anything else but just too big!

      Now 16gig is great but it carries the same problem as I have with iphones and other phones that just have internal memory, and it goes back to when my mate dropped his iphone on the last day of his holiday, it broke. All pictures and films recorded on it.. now it is easy to get it off.. when its working. Rather more tricky when you can not just pull the memory card out and put it into a reader.. ops!

          It's called Sensation XL, which means it is supposed to be a bigger Sensation... Sensation has dual core, what the h*ll htc?

            already lotsa complaints..
            this phone is for audiophile, they don't need much power too play music.. but unexpandable 16GB storage is NOT acceptable.. man, HTC didn't get their game on..

                  great screen size and like the white outline. its got the wow factor as several ppl loved it on inspection. quite poor quality with the charge adaptor as the rubber ring has fallen off already.

                      Right now I cannot compare the size with other handset but if HTC made this 4.7 screen in the size of regular 4.3 screen size od devices than it is a plus.

                      I can think of an example from Nokia, the N9 has larger screen than N8 but the over all size is almost same as N8. Sony Ericsson did the same with Arc I think where the device is nearly same size as X10 (I think).

                          This battery will last a full half of the day. Silly job HTC, and where is 1 Gig of RAM in such a monster phone

                            Everywhere else I read this has a dual-core processor and it's not 'droid'.

                                HTC has done it 4.7 inch,WTF are yo designers thinking,the bigger the better,that concept doesn't always work.

                                      This phone is so right yet so wrong. Wrong: CPU no dual core, no HD res display, no expandable storage, no 1080 recording, no Sense 3.5.

                                      When will HTC come out with the killer device that replaces the HD2? Sort it out HTC!

                                        AnonD-5449, 06 Oct 2011I'm using the SGS2, very fast.. I love it. ;)I believe you. I want that phone too. :>
