Anybody coming from Sensation? What is your experince with Gnex when comparing against Sensation?
Things that are most important to me are:
Camera, GPS, Screen quality, Reliability, Call quality.
Can anyone who had a Sensation and now owns a Gnex comment on these?

I came from a sensation all all the things you mentioned works fine, including BT.

I did, and in my opinion its an upgrade. The only problem that I have is the sound (ringtones, call quality) is low. The screen is nicer than the sensation and the phone is lighter, no problem whatsoever with the GPS. And it has a great community working on development if your into rooting and such. Plus already rocking jelly bean. Which is an upgrade in os.

Oh yeah camera is as good maybe a little better than the sensation.

Thanks for the answer.
Can you tell me if the camera takes good quality pictures since it is a 5 mp camera.
Can you or somone else elaborate on each of these when comparing to Sensation?

Is it lower than Sensation's?
It was low on the Sensation already.

I don't take a lot of pictures but do believe the picture quality is better than the sensation but that could also be that the screen quality is a lot nicer, and as far as the call quality its a little worse for me but I'm on Tmobile and live in lousy reception area.

Imho camera on sensation was better that is all Gnex is a definite upgrade for me screen is much clearer I really can't think of anything the sensation could even come close in comparison not to mention the ease of unlocking rooting and running the latest and greatest from Google when it drops from source not ported the best thing I did was switch from HTC to the Gnex my calls are clear and Imo better gps spot on quick I sold my sensation about 1 week after getting Gnex

I have just come from the sensation a week ago and haven't looked back, its simply in another league, I also chose it over the s3 and one x which imo were a massive disappointment

Gnex is the best phone,better then sensation. Cause its 100% android no tweak means more fast in terms of sotware. And the UI is clean. Faster update best screen quality.what else do you want?

It sounds like a you're more interested in the camera aspect of the phone. The sensation has a better camera then the GNEX. But the GNEX is far better in the software department. I came from the sensation and was blown away on how easy the learning curve is for ICS and now JB. But if I was going to choose camera over updated software, I would have you upgrade the HTC One X. That phone is a solid shooter and you're already used to HTC sense

Well the camera is definitely important to me, but I saw some amazing shots from the picture thread with the Nexus.
I am running CM9 on my Sensation though because i don't like Sense much, is so buggy and slow.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
Came from sensation about two months ago and I have never looked back, best choice I ever made the camera is actually better cause of the lens and fact that there is no shutter lag I still have my sensation and sometimes I will play with it and it doesn't even compare, go for it

Compare arc S to U.... U wins by miles. It has a lot faster processor and a lot faster GPU.
Compare One V to arc S - One V wins by miles. One V has beautiful display + decent processor (it is 1ghz but in reality, it was underclocked by htc from 1.4 to 1ghz because of the casing).
Compare One V to U - Xperia U wins by miles IF you are interested only in playing games, running apps faster and you are not interested in any kind of deving, not even root.
Xperia comes with a powerful GPU, the MALI 400 - the one that you can find in Galaxy S2, and a dual core processor Cortex A9 - 1ghz - again - the same processor that comes with Galaxy S2.
So IF you want only playing games, multimedia and such... 100% go for Xperia U.
Have a nice day!

That's a very informtive response and i thank you for it but are you sure those are the specs of the xperia U? I think you may have mixed them up with the specs of the xperia P.
Also, woudn't the arc S be superior due to it's faster processor (than the one V). You say it wins by miles but why?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Think I may go for the one V after all. Dont think the others are worth the £80 more or so and they are somewhat past the price range. Thanks for all the help!
Is the one V due an upgrade to jellybean?
Is the One V fast and fluid?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
no jelly bean
but the developers are going to port soon
and yes its fast.. when rooted.. well i dont actually remember how it was on stock never used it

No jellybean confirmed? Would've thought that being a 2012 device, it might.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Not confirmed yet no, But like you said, 2012 device, so i would assume a update will come eventually, But after One x and s, so our devs will probally have a aosp/cm Port way before htc releases a crappy sensified version (yes, i Hate sense )

I have 4 choices , note 3, iPhone 5s , next nexus or the one x successor with TegrA 4, I love my one x but u think that Htc should improve the audio and optimise the os better.

Re: What is your next phone after HOX and NO A-OFF
To be honest my first android phone was HTC ,I had all the phones with all the problems you mentioned ,I think I need to get away to Samsung phones and see the performance ,get accustomed with rooting and all with Samsung and then decide if its worth it ,cause honestly I couldn't care less about sense and built quality if performance and battery life is good ,the end of the day phone life is 2 years.im Sure a plastic Samsung will last 2 years rather than good built quality with component deffects and all the crap that HTC is doing now
htc one x
htc again
Me too. I like sense but feed up of HTC and their antics. I'm going to move to xperia z
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium App
i had the htc tytn then desire and now one x ,next phone will be samsung,there so much easier to mod ,cant htc see thats why samsung have a huge customer base,
My OneX stopped working due to water damage. Not stocked anymore so insurance gave me a GS3 32g.
Had one when released and hated it.
New one on jellybean is good though.
Still miss the one x but Samsung aren't really that bad. Stock vs stock goes to HTC with Sense.
That being said I can't wait for Xperia Z.

No more HTC i'm done with them. I might go for Xperia XL or any other device .. Maybe the next MIUI device rumored with T4.
I dont know yet, i have hox and sg3, so i guess no one this year, no more HTC for sure... No soff, so, by htc. Gonna break for sure, at least phones. Will keep building only windows phones, so i predict competition with nokia only.
So the only brand is Sony and Samy, Sony will see no updates as it should, son maybe ending with Samsung.
Thanks for everything Htc, great phone, tegra is great on gaming but battery sucks in JB. Uncontrolled ota, ruu encrypted.. And more.. But well, hox still a great phone but .won't buy an htc phone anymore. Even if they give us SOFF.
And i dont lie.

If S4 has awesome design then I ll go for it. Otherwise HOX until sth nice pops up!
On the road using my HOX
Unless HTC goes back to its glory days, this November I am getting a GS4 or the GNote 3.
I'm done with HTC. If I want to have a expensive peace of crap I will buy a IPhone. Because of there strategie to keep the devices locked within the future they should keep this trash!
I'm waiting for my Note2.
Some interesting comments. Seems there is abit of frustration with htc. Was going to go for the butterfly but All butterfly has is a bigger screen and krait.
but I'm moving to Sony Now. Atleast they do not break promises or let customers down

Its really nice to hear that people are getting new phones but believe me without wildfire, you wouldn't know much about internal memory, gpu's importance, partition sdcard etc.
And getting a better phone than this would feel like heaven. Atleast with this, u guyz tried FROYO and GB which you wouldnt have tried with a better phone

yup. i expect it can be as fast as sgs2 with modded rom. i would like to play ganes such like modern combat 3 or 4. ipod 4g handled with 3rd part but it was little bit laggy. probably because of 256 ram & 800 mhz

Sgs2 has handled every game I've thrown at it nicely (even when underclocked) the only problem with it is the sound chip and hwcomposer which made it tricky to port jb in the beginning so when klp is released we might be a bit slow at getting it. Overall though it's still a beast, still has great development and a huge choice of custom roms and can still fight it out with the best of them....

Another good thing about Samsung is they are a lot more open to the idea of what happens here at xda, they are simple to unlock, customize and return to stock. And they also take input from some of the top devs here. None of the others do....

I know these are both old phones, but I want to stick with 3g phones because they work on pageplus without manual programing. So please don't suggest any other phones that are 4g.
That said, the fascinate and incredible 2 are similar in specs, but I wonder which one runs jellybean the best?? I've heard that samsung has better support, but the inc2 has slightly better hardware.
Has anyone here owned both? Comments?
Seems like the fascinate has great support, just remember that this phone has a front facing camera, wireless charging, its global and i prefer sense to touchwiz if you were to ask. Also the camera on the Inc 2 is better than most 2011 and back phones
My dad had a fascinate and it was terrible. Kept freezing and gps sucked *ss.

I'd avoid the Fascinate, the radio on it is horrible. I've used both with page plus and the Fascinate had no signal in areas where the INC2 and droid x did. I couldn't make calls with the Fascinate in some areas where the inc and droid x could.
