HTC Sensation XE with Beats by Dr. Dre

Not good news for those who bought their HTC Sensation early, the dual core Android got an upgrade. Announced to be released this October, the new Sensation XE may be the perfect Android phone. It is the first phone to be shipped with Beats Audio with a special pair of Beats by Dr. Dre headphones. 
 
 
You might worry about the battery of the new Sensation XE since buyers will obviously use it a lot for listening to music, but HTC got it covered by upgrading the battery to 1730 mAh. It builds on the original HTC Sensation adding a speedier 1.5GHz dual-core processor. The Sensation XE features a 4.3-inch qHD screen, 768MB of RAM and an 8-megapixel camera capable of 1080p video recording.

Another thing to expect, a more expensive price tag...

I was excited to see the first HTC Smartphone with Beats by Dr. Dre thinking that it would be awesome. But upon reading the specifications of it on GSM Arena, I’m a bit disappointed with it as it lacks the power and speed to compete with the competition’s flagship devices.


The phone is known as the “Runnymede”, here’s the specifications:

•    4.7-inch, 800x480 display
•    1.5GHz single-core Qualcomm MSM8255
•    768MB RAM, 16GB internal storage
•    8 megapixel rear camera with LED flash, backlit sensor
•    720p video recording at 60fps
•    1.3 megapixel front camera
•    DLNA
•    Less than 10mm thick
•    Android 2.3.4, Sense 3.5
•    Bundled Beats by Dr. Dre headphones

Another thing that I don’t like with the specs is the 4.7” display. 4.3” is enough, like most of their flagship models, but anything larger than that is already a tablet. I was also expecting it to be a dual core device and have a larger RAM. I guess it is targeted for teens and audiophiles that would not care less if it is a dual core or not. The Runnymede is expected to be released on December this year.
