HTC Sensation XL LCD display type? - HTC Sensation XL

Can someone explain the difference between older HTC displays (Sensation, EVO 3D, etc.) and newer ones ( Sensation XL, Titan).
They all claim to be S-LCD but the newer ones are clearly brighter, more colorful (plainly speaking), the quality is more comparable to AMOLED LCD's.
Did a bit of googling but can't find any explanation.
Anyone else with similar observations?

This LCD-Display uses the same technic like the IP4 and 4s...its an IPS Display...

HTC Sensation XL Review

Hey guys, got my Sensation XL today. Done a quick review. I know, i think I'm awful at reviewing too. Thanks in advance

Please comment and like! (Sorry for promoting myself :L)
Nice to see a user review that's not full of blurry-cam action. I got mine from an O2 store and it ships with the more substantial/expensive Solo headphones.... Just thought I'd mention for anyone interested in music.
Cheers. To be honest I'm not a fan of over ears. Which is why I opted for the in ears. What do you think of the beats software? To me it sounds amazing

On-ears and in-ears
If i order sensation with solo beats in the box there is no in-ears headset?

The sound quality is superb... It's more to do with the headphones than anything else tho... All the beats software does is create a certain EQ pattern. Top marks to both HTC and whoever makes the beats headphones.
what can you say about htc these days..........they more or less speak for themselves, they even look alike!!!!!!!!! a little better preparation and you would have have a great review but it was refreshing to hear from someone who actually owns the device and not repeating what others were saying. getting mine on the weekend £370 was a steal i think. this is a beast. slightly disappointed with screen res as expected qHD for a screen this size.
Thanks. You won't be disappointed with the screen. Even though its wvga it looks superb, crisp text, vivid colours, great viewing angles.

was thinking about getting galaxy note or xl. In the end went for xl simply because it was launched first and would be more practical out of the two for making calls. It looks better.
So far loving it, the build, htc features, sound quality(louder then the sensation). Screen looks better then all other htc models.
Gps locks on immediately
New Led light notification is brilliant!
Internet smooth
No bugs or crashes
No lag
So far very pleased.
I agree on everything you said. Especially the led. Who new something so small could be so cool?!

Phonerane review, claims Mideocre 8mp camera and camcorder?!?!? HOW is that Possible?
I'm really shocked here,
Today I read the Phonearena review on this device ( HTC Sensation XL ) and to my surprise, the review was really bad. The reviewer claim the 8mp camera is very weak compared to Htc Sensation XE, even with better lens and sensor?!? How can it be? Moreover, the reviewer showed that the 720p camcorder is even weaker than image quality, and I'm really pissed off by that.
Can anyone who has a Htc Sensation Xl confirm this claims? Now I am in a real dilemma here, because I love this phone, and I can overlook the fact is has inferior resolution and no micro Sd Slot, but if the Camera and Camcorder is weaker than the Sensation Xe counterpart, I'm think I will swap in favor of the second.
Please check the review from PhoneArena and help me sort this out!!! Anyone!
Thanks

I need help finding a DSLR camera

Im looking to buy a Digital SLR Camera. I am looking for something in the $500 area. I need opinions as to which camera to get. I need it to get extra clear shots indoors and outdoors. As my newborn grows up it will be very difficult to get a picture of him steady so i need a fast camera. Also burst mode will be very good. I want HD video which in that price range pretty much all of them have it.
Right now after some research i am between the cameras below:

Protip: Don't buy camera equipment from BestBuy
Also increase your budget a little and get this one.

I never buy from best buy. I go there, have some hands-on time with the products, and if i decide which one i want, i come home and hunt for the best deal online.
oh, and i found that camera you posted for $547 so that puts it right on my budget.
That camera is the same as the T3i, without an articulating screen
Since there's plenty of cam reviews out there to help you make your decision on the cam body, I thought I would offer a few other pointers:
- Get an external flash unit that you can rotate to bounce the flash. This works wonders for your indoor shots. Plus, it won't blind your child like the built-in flash would.
- Get a zoom lens. My usual lens of choice is the Nikkor 35mm. But once my son learned how to crawl, it was impossible to shoot with that lens. Once he saw the camera, he would be fascinated by it and would crawl towards me trying to take the cam. I have to resort to shooting from afar with the Nikkor 55-200mm.
The t2i is probably the best in the canon field. The cheaper ones (canon) have a body of really cheap and fake plastic. Else go for Nikon. D3100,or d5100 . By far better and ergonomic body

Best buy isn't that bad that people make it out to....
I would say Nikon D300s or D7000. You can actually get a D90 pretty cheap

He said 500$. That's about a d90 body only. The d7000,and d300/s are over 1.000$ . The guy just wants a cam to take good pics, not become a pro. With a d5100 and the 18-55vr /18-105vr he'll be fine

Damn it. Ive been viewing reviews all day on youtube and on different websites trying to decide which one to get. I cant seem to make up my mind. So far i'm sold on that Canon T2i. Later today or tomorrow i will go to Best Buy with an SD card and play with the DSLRs there.

Go to bestbuy and handle the cameras, and choose the one that are the most comfortable in your hand. There is not much difference in the begines cameras.

I was at a tech store the other day and they had a eos 1100d on display... The build quality was so terrible I started laughing xD those crappy plastic buttons and dials are a shame for canon... Not even a 40$ camera is worth of such buttons

I think you mean 600D then yes 600D=T3i=Kiss X5(Japan)
And I have no idea why. Maybe b/c americans are stupid and T3i sounds better than 600D and Japanese people like to Kiss?

no more samsung... help please

Hello there htc users... i had 3 samsung devices all with there problems:|
sgs1 lagg like hell
sgs2 very fast buggy software
galaxy nexus the most sh*****t phone ever ... on stock 4.0.2 its unusable slower then my old sgs1 , can`t play any high end game only good thing is music quality and build quality and that mini notif led
i saw some reviews on youtube about sensation xl and i see games like gta 4 and MC3 are working smooth almost like sgs2
what do you recommand me to do? change it? it is an upgrade or a downgrade?
thx
I had an apple 4 after that an sgs2 and an apple 4s which i sold for the sxl. i wasnt a friend of htc but the sxl, how can i say, is lovely. You cant say it is an upgrade or downgrade. For me the size is perfect, games i dont play, but with a good rom is it very very smooth. i love that think realy.

I have had many phones in my time haha. Maybe not as many as some members in here but, all the iPhones, I have used Samsung (which I hate) and I have to say HTC are my favourite the build is better, the screen isn't maybe as vibrant as some but its still very good. The single core processor handles very well and games work perfectly fine on the phone. I wouldn't say its a downgrade, it depends what you look for in a phone really.
Basically I would get it or wait for the new HTC range.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using xda premium
Wait for the HTC One X, you'll be happy.
Sxl is definitely one of the top tier phone. But these phones are rated mostly depends on personal needs and taste
For me, I would say this is the best single core phone, and somehow better than dual core in term of battery life. Dual core drains like hell
Plus the extra beats headphone, makes it even worth purchasing. I think HTC phone in future will no longer comes with beats headphone .

[Q] HTC providing Beat headsets?

I'm planning to buy HTC Sensation XL, but I somewhere heard that they are not providing Beat headset with Sensation XL. Is it true?

There is no link in your post.
Could anyone who have a HTC One test it with Rightmark or some other program and post their results here?
Anybody here with some decent headphones?

It is awesome. Let me explain why. The soundchip used in Boomsound speakers are not only for speakers. HTC intigrated that technology into headphone jack too so you get that high quality sound when you plug in your headphones too.
Yep, I tried it, crystal clear.
I suppose that GSMArena review isn't that reliable, seen their comparsion S4 vs HTC One and audio quality there is from some other galaxy
Could anyone support me with some more reliable audio test, i'm very interested in HTC One headphone audio quality? (With some decent headphones, like B&W C5)
Comparison threads are against forum rules
But it's not really a comparsion thread, we are just trying to find out how good the HTC One perform with headphones.
Could anyone post a good audio review (not GSMArena) or post the Rightmark results here made by themeselves?
You're comparing the audio quality against other phones, which is very subjective
But feel free to carry on, dont mind me
You just like to see the world burn? lol ok nevermind
So any one with One how is the audio?
So any updates?

I'm going to get shouted at for this.
I have a pair of Dre Beats Studios, and iPhone 5 and HTC One, and a recent memory of a HTC One X, now sold.
With the Beats Equalizer on through a pair of Studios, it sounds absolutely fantastic, better than my HP DV6. Things aren't so good when you turn that equalizer off, however that's more due to the fact that that sound enhancement was designed to be used with a pair of Dre Beats
As for the iPhone, I find it's audio to be a bit tinny when played through the Dre Beats. I think the sound level is slightly higher on the iPhone, but to me the HTC One wins everytime. And if it's vs boomsound, I think we know who wins :victory:
HTC one with audio technica m50 (actual good headphones not marketing) the sound is brilliant using spotify on high quality, I will test on my iPhone today before I sell it
