Alright Dave you wreck head! There isn't a dramatic difference between a 5 and 8 megapixel camera, unless you like to print of pictures onto a larger format. The reason apple have only 5 is that it is easier/faster for users to upload pictures online or send via text etc...

Android is gradually becoming a market leader as its very easy to use (like the iphone)) and has an app store to rival apple. (admittedly not as many apps though) Android is basically google, that's the money behind it and I feel it won't be long before they compete equally with apple.

I am an apple user and always will be. The phones designs are 2nd to none and their clever marketing (or lack of it) keeps me hooked. I must say I have no issues with any iPhone I've ever had and get no iPhone fault issues in work, although all too many HTC's.

Ah nice one matey. I never knew that about the megapixels. So HTC are prone to

i would never have anything other than an Iphone.

every now and again a phone like the sensation will come up with one or two features that might just edge the iphone but it still consistantly has 20 + more features better than any of its competiters.

its no coiincidence that apple is the worlds largest electrical company above IBM and microsoft.

just wait for todays annoucement and the world will go iphone mad !!

Well basically the Sensation, Galaxy S2, iPhone 5 (iPhone 4S) all have dual core processors (which is awesome for phones) - The Galaxy S2 and Sensation both have 8 megapixel cameras with 1080p (best) HD video recording, whilst the iPhone 5 is unknown (announcement within the hour).

The Sensation only has 1GB internal storage, the Galaxy S2 has 15GB (ish), and the iPhone 5 is unknown (as above).

I use the Galaxy S2 myself and it's brilliant :ayatollah:

The sensation is over priced in my opinion, it's not the greatest of HTC's. It has a small internal memory of just 1gb as opposed to applies 16gb +! a customer came to me today, she had the phone three days and it was riddled with faults. It does have a 1.2 Ghz duel core processor though, which is the most powerful to date...doesn't make much of a difference in my opinion.

iPhone 4S Specifications vs iPhone 4 Specifications


Here are the features and specifications which are different from the previous model.

■iPhone 4S contains a new chip, A5. It’s a dual core graphics which means iPhone 4S is 7 times faster than iPhone 4. It can run some popular games which were previously available for xbox users only. In fact Infinity Blade 2 will be available for download on December 1st.
■iPhone 4S CPU is 2 times faster than iPhone 4.
■Antenna position is changed. It can downloaded 14.4Mbps, even faster than iPhone 4.
■As predicted previously, iPhone 4S is a “World Phone”. It supports on both GSM and CDMA networks.
■Wow, iPhone 4S has got 8 megapixel camera now. That’s really huge improvement for photography lovers. It contains 60% more pixels than iPhone 4. The new camera sensor allows us to gather 73% more light than iPhone 4 model.
■Siri: the intelligent assistant that helps you to do things by asking is also available on iPhone 4S. With the help of Siri we can send messages, set reminder, writer event entries, call anyone, search anything on Instant Wikipedia, dictate anywhere. It works with all built-in apps and supports English, French and German languages.
