Market Press Release – May 23, 2011 10:31 pm – Many people regard the Apple iPhone 4 as the best smartphone available today. It is the smartphone of choice for millions of users all over the world, and it sold out very quickly when it was first released. Since the iPhone 4 has been available, many manufacturers have released superior smartphones, on paper at least. One smartphone which is causing a lot of hype is the HTC Sensation.
But what is so special about this handset, and is it better than the amazingly popular iPhone 4? In this article, I will offer my reasons as to why I believe the HTC Sensation is the superior smartphone, based on a few key features.
Screen
The screen is an important point when choosing a new smartphone. Apple has successfully marketed the iPhone 4 with its “retina” display, so called due to the fact that the resolution is so high, it is impossible for the human eye to distinguish between individual pixels. The resolution on the iPhone 4 is actually slightly higher than the HTC Sensation, but I feel that it would still be hard to tell the difference between the two to the naked eye. Both smartphones offer some of the most advanced touchscreen technology available in any smartphone; both are highly responsive, making for an enjoyable and interactive user experience.
Processor
In smartphones, having a powerful processor is vital to make use of the applications on offer. The iPhone 4 has a 1GHz offering, which is certainly powerful, but this is an area where the HTC Sensation comes out on top. Boasting a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, it has more than twice the processing power of the iPhone. Having this technology at your disposal means that seamless multitasking and running powerful applications will make daily use that much more enjoyable and efficient. The list of advantages of having a dual-core processor is very long; apart from the aforementioned advantages, users can also enjoy a more responsive touchscreen, and faster loading of web pages.

Camera
One of the areas which iPhone users feel could be improved is the digital camera. Although it offers 5 megapixels with HD video recording capabilities, a 5 megapixel camera on such a high end device seems a little low. HTC has included an 8 megapixel camera on the Sensation. Aside from the likes of the Nokia N8 (with a 12 megapixel camera), this is among the highest resolutions available on a mobile phone. The camera on the HTC Sensation also beats that of the iPhone 4 in terms of video recording. The iPhone can shoot HD video, but only in 720p; the Sensation boasting full 1080p high def video capture. So as with the processor, the HTC Sensation beats the iPhone 4 in this area.
Apps
One of the main draws of owning a smartphone is the fact that most allow users to download additional applications straight to the phone. In this review, it is more of a case of Android Market versus AppStore rather than sizing up the handsets themselves. Technically, the AppStore comes out in front, in terms of the amount of apps available, and its ease of use. However, at the time of writing, it was recently announced that Android Market now has more free apps than the AppStore. Also, sales of Android handsets are fast catching up to the iPhone’s numbers, and naturally, the content of the Android Market is more than likely to evolve to meet the needs of these additional users. For now it seems that the iPhone wins the apps battle, but I believe this is only temporary.
Of course there is so much more I could compare between these two handsets as each one has an extensive spec list and numerous features. In this article I have touched on some of the main points that people compare when choosing a new smartphone.
On paper at least, I would say the HTC Sensation is the superior smartphone, especially in terms of hardware; but at the time of writing, we are only weeks away from the official announcement of the Apple iPhone 5, and we can only speculate as to what technological marvels it will offer.
