Fraud

Hi guys,
Before writing this review, i would like to put things in perspective. An Ipad2, 16gb, wifi 3g retails for INR 36900. This phone is INR 600 more. Let's explore this a little more:

1). CPU: An Ipad has the monster ARM cortex A9 DUAL core CPU. HTC XL has an old and forgotten SINGLE core scorpion processor. A little bit of googling will tell you why this can be a bad comparison.

2). Graphics card: No one in the industry can match the graphics card of the Ipad currently (PowerVR SGX543...

Bad Business

I am a big fan of HTC and own a Desire S. HTC builds solid devices but this one is not a rocker! I recently had a glimpse at this phone and played around for some time but wouldn't recommend to anyone. If someone is looking for a big display then Galaxy note is a much much better option with a gorgeous display. HTC needs to learn how to do business in India. If I have to buy a new phone, i'll wait for Galaxy Nexus which is expected to be launched soon in India.I'd start with the cons first:

One thing i don't get is why so pricey...is it a flagship device?no...not exactly..because of beats enhancement...give me a break..if i want that i would go for sensation XE which has dual core processor and which is less pricey..does htc think this is first ICS phone like Galaxy Nexus or the buyers are not so intelligent or this phone shines among others like galaxy s2/nexus/note...they don't even give a amoled display and not even an expansion slot ...r u kidding with me for such a price..o...

HTC Sensation XL

With recent HTC launches it seems that the guys at HTC have lost the pulse of the market and are not abreast with competition. Samsung is way ahead with LG, Motorola & Sony following. Earlier HTC offered good phones with innovative features while the competition was playing catch up now the tables have turned and HTC has become a follower. HTC Sensation XE/XL are inferior to Samsung Galaxy SII, Galaxy Note and Motorola RAZR XT910. Even HTC Rhyme is nothing but repackaged HTC Desire S. HTC has...

What was HTC thinking ! Disappointed!

After launching few of the best android phones like incredible S and sensation ,HTC has made a blunder.
OVERPRICED buy galaxy note instead or go for sensation XE.

Only plus pint that i can see is 'THE WHITE' colour handset :-/
HTC should launch older models in white.

Micromax Canvas is btr!

Look at the Micromax Canvas if you like the config this phone has. That is the same thing and MUCH cheaper. (Well almost the same :P)
The point is this sucks. Look at the One series.
I have no clue why this is still in the HTC line up when they themselves have much better phones. Well....its only in India that they have this phone. They want to get rid of their stock I guess.

Disappointed@@@

I have one question for HTC guys - what are you guys smoking?? Seriously!!

I loved HTC (Used HD2, Desire HD earlier) until i started using sensation - the worst phone ever, it has poor battery life and death grip issues
my friend has incredible s - again no signal, death grip issues!!! (Who puts a freakin antenna behind a phone cover!!!)

I wish you see this post and design better phones, sensation XL is yet another disappointment!! we dont want BEATS, we want good phones!!

Why review if you are not owning it

I don't understand why people under-rate the product or put up bad review when they are not owning the product? If you don't like it or find it expensive don't buy it. If you want to help others by giving a review, put up a neutral review or a comparison and let people take informed decision. HTC handsets like Apple were always expensive compared to others, but the fact that HTC is amoung the top sellers of handsets means that there are people who think there is something in the product. So w...
