HTC Sensation XE vs. Galaxy Nexus with Video

November 19, 2011, Google introduced Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich . With him was announced a new smartphone series Nexus - Nexus Galaxy , development and manufacture of which dealt with the Korean company Samsung. New product has a strong and attractive, including through the latest version of Android. Compare it with the HTC Sensation XE , which is now safely be called the most powerful HTC smartphones of the presented in Europe.

The size of both devices is similar, Galaxy Nexus is only slightly longer than the HTC Sensation XE, and after the last screen size much smaller (4.3 inches vs. 4.65). This is due to the fact that the smartphone screen a series of Nexus is concave, as well as for lack of a control unit, which is available in XE Sensation . It should be probably be said about the resolution of screens, a smartphone from HTC, it is equal to 960 x 540 (qHD), screen Galaxy Nexus also has a resolution of 1280 x 720 (720p). In addition, screen smartphone from Google are produced in Super HD AMOLED, which gives him an advantage in brightness and contrast to the S-LCD-display Sensation XL.

On the other hand, the HTC Sensation XE is a serious advantage in monolithic case. Despite the fact that he is not satisfied by technology unibody, as the case of some other smartphones HTC, is used in its construction metal. Hull construction HTC Sensation XE appears more robust than a monolithic and a plastic housing Galaxy Nexus. Monolithic and adds more weight to the smartphone HTC (151 grams vs. 135).

Black color and Beats Audio logo and red design elements give the device from HTC additional charm. By the way, complete with Sensation XE supplied headphones and urBeats, which at times is better than any conventional headset. Also, do not forget that HTC Sensation XE is equipped with technology Beats, which activates a special audio profile when headphones from Beats Electronics to your phone.

Let us consider the characteristics of devices. In the Galaxy Nexus installed dual-processor TI OMAP 4460 with a frequency of 1.2 GHz, and the heart of HTC Sensation XE is also a dual-core Qualcomm MSM8260 with a frequency of 1.5 GHz. Amount of RAM on your smartphone from Google and Samsung is set to 1 GB, but the music Android by HTC - 768 MB. Main Camera HTC Sensation XE has a resolution of 8 megapixels, the camera Galaxy Nexus - 5 MP. However, the quality of images Sensation XE pretty mediocre, so what's new Nexus may even be better. Both smartphones have a front camera, the resolution thereof to the same Sensation XE 0.3 megapixel (VGA), and the Galaxy Nexus - 1.3 megapixels.

In HTC Sensation XE installed Android 2.3 and proprietary shell HTC Sense 3.0. Shell HTC has always been famous for its beauty and great design, but Google's Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which is set to Galaxy Nexus, managed to reach the beautiful and smooth working interface. It's hard to tell who won, fans branded HTC shell probably choose Sensation XE, but other buyers may have to think about.

In the end, I would like to say that both of the applicant to purchase more than interesting. Given that very soon HTC Sensation XE gets an upgrade to Android 4.0 ICS , smartphone from HTC looks more than appealing. Instead, Google Nexus will give the owner an opportunity as quickly as possible possession of the latest version of Android in a year or two.
