Phones come have to admit to being rather impressed lol, I can't get how much smaller it is although the same size screen it looks so much smaller, sense 3 looks nice also very professional looking compared too touchwizz.

I can instantly see the difference in the resolution its so noticeable didn't think I would see it, hmmm the smallness of this phone has my attention now and it is unlocked Robbo just has some vodafone boot up stuff and a few apps.

Another thing that I didn't know at all on the GS2 is it has a blue tint to the whites, only noticed it when I loaded up google on both phones.
 
Indeed, it is more impressive than you expect it to be! Good that it's unlocked too.

The only thing I can really say bad about the screen are the viewing angles, they are absolute garbage in comparison to LED, but that doesn't really matter for me as 99% of the time I look at the phone properly from the front.

It just feels like you are holding a HTC Desire, yet the screen is a lot bigger, it's very odd!
 
Much lighter than I was expecting also and as you said the viewing angles are poor compared to the GS2, will do some video outside at the same time with the phones but I know the GS2 will win that hands down.

Browser is much smoother on the GS2 also but you can see the difference in the resolution on the HTC and the whites look much better on the GS2 as you would expect.
 
So far the screen lets it down a bit I think if it had a led it would be mint and sense 3 isn't as smooth as I would expect just isn't silky smooth as it should be, the higher resolution is there to be seen though things look much much sharper which surprised me.

I also noticed the blue tint on the whites on GS2 when on the internet as I said above but its noticeable, I think people will be surprised just how small the Sensation is really fits in your hand now, they have done a great job.

Some videos to judge for yourself.


GS2

Sensation

They look a bit over saturated like Apple did with the Iphone 4, I think the sharpness goes to the Sensation though, the GS2 doesn't look as sharp.

I fully expected the GS2 to destroy it in the HD side, my mate prefers how the Sensation looks he said the GS2 looks washed out were his words lacking colourr and the htc looked much sharper.

I think if you look with your eyes at the subject, the GS2 colours are more realistic, but there isn't a great deal in it.

Defiantly they are over saturated on the Sensation but as you said there isn't a great deal in it, my real gripe so far is that sense isn't as smooth as it should be.
 
No, but that is down to HTC not using proper GPU acceleration for some reason, it can be addressed though, either by HTC or the rom devs.
 
Seems like Vodafone have found the fault with my Sensation. :)

1. Software Upgrade (Otherwise known as SWUG)
A fully qualified technician diagnosed the fault on your phone - it was caused by corrupt/faulty software. To correct this problem, a software upgrade was carried out on your phone. As this corruption can be imported via ring tone or other downloads, SMS/MMS and other internet use it may not have been possible to save your stored data and settings because the software upgrade would override them.
Interesting diagnosis. Not sure how it happened mind. I didn't import any ring tones and I'd be interested to know which download or internet use was to blame. :p
