HTC Sensation. I jumped! On ... HTC One X

But suddenly it started in August. Either say what I often began to flash car, then trying to Jelly Bean, then Ice Cream Sandwich, even Gingerbread. Whether that smartphone started flying. But not because the stone inside the smart, but because of the fact that I was attacked by some krivorukost. As a result, in August-September, previously shunned such flights HTC Sensation, suddenly felt extreme urgency, and the number of hops from his pocket, a desk or out of the hands began to grow like a seasoned paratrooper. Is that a dip in the fountain had not yet. In kitty landing sites were very different: flooring, granite, asphalt, tile, wood. Monotony was said a firm "no."
HTC One X vs HTC SensationOne time I put the device in the bad mount on the handlebars the bike than the first one did not fail to take advantage of. At a speed of 35 km / h and it popped up on the asphalt (fucking eternal construction site at Sokol!) Slid floor strip and stood face down. "******, *****! ***********! "- I thought (although it is possible that not only thought, but uttered). Pressed on the brake levers, causing pads squeeze the rotors on the wheels, and put out the plug inertia. He turned around and saw that the bus driver to write the letter for the phenomenal response and observation - my device was lying dangerously close to the front wheel white-green colossus.
 
"Do not turn" - flashed through my head. But the finger is still habitually felt on the housing overhang power button. To press harder. HTC Sensation twitched, as if I put it defibrillator, and began to come to life: the screen flickered, went to the boot process, Show Desktop, pulled widgets and shortcuts, the word network. I climbed it in Google Maps, GPS activated and prepared to re-enter the route, I realized that satellite search is somehow too long. "Well, even if GPS is not working" - I thought with a kind of irrational cheerfulness. But no, a couple of minutes of signal reception icon is burning steadily, and Google led the way on the map.The screen is not a single new scratches, but got a couple of frame body scars, evidence of incorrect operation and failure in my warranty - the paint on the lower left corner of the flayed to the metal. After the painful events rushed - HTC Sensation then who will fall spontaneously, suddenly reboots when trying to turn on the player and GPS simultaneously. In general, the fed. I decided to leave it as a navigator, which I have as many as three sets of spare batteries. And in its place was chosen rookie - HTC One X. Why I still prefer HTC can read my blog (article there is not so relevant, but is still living). After all, only he was then a screen that I liked the whole of any on the market: the big, bright, with a good pixel density, with a color that was to taste my eyes. Is that the lights too bright by default. In the dim room annoyed look, but helps out in the sun.And then in addition also a new version of the skin Sense, which I really appreciate, and sound processing Beats I liked (though a bit later, I noticed that for some reason do not already feel the difference, and it does not matter whether the green bird in settings or not).Liked and new keyboard. Trace mechanism became more intelligent and prediction of words are more correct. And the new skin seemed pretty. I once again tried to play with the latest versions of Swype and SwiftKey 3, but in the end, as always, returned to his native nabiralke text from HTC.Battery initially upset, then pleased, then again upset, then still some emotions aroused. In short, do not give bored. But after a few weeks of use, I realized that the charge in HTC One X is enough for me in my typical day light and stopped worrying about it. For example, once I have it stand from 11 am to 19.40 at a fairly intensive use. But since this is still Android, then I'm always dragging around a backpack charger in case you manage to drop to somewhere life-giving energy of the socket.Separately, I was pleased with the fact that, at the time of purchase HTC devaysa I thought better yet, heard cries of users and updates to take into account the bad moment annoying menu bar on all screens. Now, in the settings there is an appropriate option, where you can customize its appearance and behavior of buttons device. Previously, this had to install the patches downloaded from XDA-Forum.As for the tactile sensations, after-soft-metallic precursors tachevyh I worried that HTC One X is not so nice to feel in the hand. However, it was found that polycarbonate is pretty good. It is even possible to make a mark pen in a notebook. And with it simply erases scratches. Yeah, put the phone in your pocket with keys, and then rubbed the injured area and the focus - the scratch disappears! However, it turned out that the same polycarbonate exposed that it formed wear, which will eventually look pretty ugly, and remove them is very difficult, if not impossible. Besides the lack of impact on the weight of the metal device. In my opinion negatively. When the device does not weigh anything, I have the impression that in my hands a toy or some kind of not the best quality kitaychatinu of cheap plastic. HTC Sensation have been nice noble weight, which initially lacked in HTC One X, but after a couple weeks of adventure with this device I did not pay attention to this point.But those same old tired bodyWhat is to say thank Taiwanese engineers - they continue to be used for housing at least pieces. Here it is almost monolithic. Back cover + screen. Nothing more. Similar design stoically resists scratches and loose, which would necessarily have appeared after a short use of the models made of plastic and a few items in the package. Immediately polycarbonate itself again showed the winner. Even twist it. This guy anyway - not emit any sound.Polycarbonate was not bad in the role of heat sink material. Inside HTC One X nestled Tegra 3, which has an effect when you run demanding applications. Smartphone noticeably warm. No, it does not burn your hands, but do not pay attention to the rise in temperature is not possible. However, if you do not load it with some tough games or attempts to use 3G with an uncertain signal, the toy will be cool.But the size of devaysa me somewhat disappointed. I remember once grumbled at the HTC Desire HD, going at it with HTC Hero. Then the first one seemed hefty colossus. But after a few days of use, I realized that it was used to such an extent that they no longer expect to buy smartphones with smaller screen. Hoped that this will happen when you use HTC One X, but it did not. It was found that 4.3 inches, I was used to the time adventures with HTC Desire HD, for me, the perfect size. Diagonal is no longer even a few tenths of already seems cumbersome and inconvenient. After a few months of daily use HTC One X, I understand that its size is 4.7 for me big. No, the screen is, of course, chic: the information and the text breaks there decently, scrolling when viewing Web declined markedly, viewing photos and video has become much more enjoyable. But when you need to reach the top of the screen, I have to string up. Good thing you need to pull your finger to the right corner. But if the far left, we have to show or sleight of hand, capturing the smartphone in your hand, or else connect your other hand to get the required interface element. In this case, my hands are not the smallest, and fingers are not short.Just a couple of words to say about the Sens, about the very little things that by this shell of HTC make the interaction with the machine more enjoyable. Nomeronoberatel wiser. Now he is looking calm throughout the phonebook, without paying attention to whether the number is written in the format of 7 or simply 8. In addition, the system seems to be almost watching you. If you constantly choose contacts from Address Book manually, the dialer from HTC will tell you that you're probably not familiar with their arhiudobnoy fichey smart-dial, and therefore propose to pass a short learning this method.Earpiece like - voiced companion heard well even if you are in a public place. But the noise reduction function and the use of a second microphone I can not check for yourself. Does anyone have a One X in the hall? I type in the subway, or from somewhere else to get around was loud. Listen and see how it copes with its tasks. It has long been interested!But there were some unpleasant moments associated with this unit. For example, my HTC One X for some reason did not take my Chinese noname headphones that easily work with other smartphones or laptops, and with the same HTC Sensation do not conflict. This is probably due to some clever sound processing mechanisms and the presence of Beats Audio technology in the machine. But complete in-ear headphones have been rather pleasant. For my taste they give a very good sound, and finally changed its form. Now they do not fall out of my ears. A lapshevidny lead to a less confused than the standard solution. However, and I found them for that fault. The wire is long, which is good, but at the same time it becomes quite heavy, touches the clothes or just hang out and at the contact with the plastic insulation plugs itself creates a quiet creak, but that can be heard when listening to music. Definitely not clear disadvantage write down, although rare player stuttering during playback. It happens when, for example, you put the phone in his pocket. As if the accelerometer sensor starts aktivnichat and progruzhaet hundredth of a second processor to the maximum, using all his 4 +1 core. I think that this can be easily cured with fresh firmware if programmers HTC to attend to the matter. This is hardly a hardware problem.If we continue the theme of the firmware, it's definitely frustrating exit velocity wake up your phone. Get the smartphone from the pocket, you press the power button on the screen, and it is included. But not immediately. No, it's not even a second, much less time, but the delay is still noticeable. Particularly if previously played with at least Android 4.1. That's where everything is clear and without hesitation. The software is also a bad time.And finally, a few unfortunate design features of the case. What is tear hands and squeal on the ears engineers HTC - location usb-connector. The same sort of almost a standard was - vkoryachivat it at the bottom of the gadget. All familiar and comfortable. No, decided to make the left side of the top. As a result, the cables on the smartphone turns on the table for projecting pupil camera, tries to slip on the floor. And it often happens that the habit trying to energize a mobile companion bottom, where the hole is gone.Volume button left mixed feelings. Okay, changed its own traditions, and moved it to the other end - to forgive, are used to. Especially because it's easy to feel for even in your pocket without looking. But it turned out too soft. If you suddenly got the device did something with one hand and then put back into the inner pocket of a jacket or jeans, then most certainly finger push down on the volume rocker and shalt swear by restoring the usual level of decibels in your ears.Convex screen - also matter. Some complain that it is a feature leads to the fact that in the fall, he often cracks and splits than previous models, where it was a little contrary to Frame recessed housing, giving extra rigidity and strength, and guided when flying glass. I do not like the fact that attempts to remove the smartphone in your pocket with one hand to reach the power button to put out the lights, personally I bow device so that, due to the convexity of the screen sensor begins to respond to touch, whom I did not want to admit. As a result, "spontaneously" to open menus, run applications, change settings, etc.That's what a glass HTC One XAnd, finally, I obzovelsya NFC. Now, thanks to a new device and plug the application Metro 24 able to read information on tickets for the subway, even at home simply finding out how many trips I have left.In short, the transition to the new model was, in general, fairly painless and easy. But, as usual, even the flagship eminent companies in the mobile sphere are not without their drawbacks, which is somewhat clouded the situation. After all, a toy is not as cheap, but because giving their money, I want to get a device without such obvious flaws, koi have been seen in my HTC One X.
