Test of Sensation HTC (II)

In this second part we will talk of the software that incorporates the endsl. The integration of HTC Sense and the user experience that produces. In this case the ROM is branded by Vodafone, so it includes some typical applications of the company.

Starting the operating system of the terminal to mention, it incorporates Android 2.3.3 and 2.6.35.10 kernel version. Brings the latest version of the HTC Sense, the 3.0. This latest version is impressive. All options and all the animations make the terminal take an attractive higher in comparison with other manufacturers simply incorporating desktops much easier. Since the unlock screen can enjoy of the HTC Sense with the widgets that let you if you have calls or messages pending. The animations are much better than in other versions of Sense, being very present weather information and that have given you more prominence in wallpapers. Applications that incorporates this version are not very distant of the versions 2.1, I mean the Peep, contacts, messaging or Facebook. I notice a difference but they are not many. HTC Sense on this terminal works excellent. There is no lag of any kind from desktops, animations or loading multiple applications. They have achieved an 'almost' perfect desktop.

Among the applications that we can find, predominate in all HTC the of social networking and integration with Internet 2.0. From a customized version of Facebook or Peep, we also have the official Twitter app, also Friend Stream or Locations. There are no exclusive Sense 3.0 applications, what is more, they are the same as we saw in the HTC Desire S in the other review.The screen of 4.3 inch helps to be able to enjoy all these applications and of course, which includes Google Android, such as Gmail, Gatlk, Navigation, etc.

Another key point of the terminal is the camera. 8MPx with auto focus and dual LED Flash. Very good quality of the photos the truth. With a little skill, you can take photos very good without having to carry a camera in your pocket. In addition, the video recording is sublime, Full HD 1080p to be able to capture moments with your terminal. If you have an adapter you can enjoy the videos you grabes on an external monitor, while in the phone's screen can already see that the videos are very good.

It has a very good music player. The audio equalizer gives a superior touch for music lovers. You can put your favorite songs in the microSD in the terminal and be able to enjoy them where you want. The helmets of HTC audio quality is fine, but with some headphones more power I am sure that you will enjoy much of your music on your mobile phone.

With regard to the interaction of the user with the terminal, saying that HTC Sense 3.0 I was very surprised and for good. I am not in favour of a user interface so sticky, with so many frills. I tried several versions of HTC Sense and say that the 3.0 version is what really liked. By the power of this terminal the Sense does not have any lag or problem when moving from desktop, menus or to unlock the screen.

As for the battery, I still surprising. You can easily spend 1 day of drums (no spend the day with your phone in your hand). With a fairly common and frequent use: data, wifi, 1 h calls and social networks; It may take you more than 24 h security. If you spend the day playing, then don't complain about that the battery lasts only 8 h.

In the latter part of the review we will see if we can squeeze the terminal and see what we can get him and the power that leads inside.
