The HTC Sensation XE bears a faster 1.5GHz CPU on the same MSM8260 chipset (with Adreno 220 graphics) as its predecessor. It also has a larger 1,730 mAh battery, rated to deliver up to 9 hours of talk time. The rest of the specs remain the same as the Sensation, including the 4.3-inch S-LCD qHD display. It will ship with a choice of 8GB of 16GB microSD card onboard.
That is of course, excluding the fruits of the Beats Audio partnership – bundled Beats by Dr. Dre headphones, a remote control, and a specially optimized sound profile for ‘studio quality audio’.
HTC has yet to reveal the pricing of the Sensation XE, but has announced its launch in late September in Asia and other territories.
