If you are a T-mobile  client looking maybe hanging on to your old G1 and thinking of upgrading to a quality Android smartphone, get in line and take a look at the hot new HTC Sensation.

When we first looked at the HTC Sensation we were impressed but felt that time would certainly tell if it would turn out to be a truly worthy iPhone competitor or replacement even. Well, some time has past and it may have fallen short of killing iPhones so it’s time to revisit the HTC Sensation. among a number of other devices from HTC such as the HTC Incredible S and HTC Desire S they have burrowed into our attention among the stiff smartphone competition coming from just about everywhere, including Motorola’s Atrix and LG’s Optimus 2X s.
