A: Sensation or Atrix 2
Most important thing for me is longevity and service center support. Then comes official android updates and custom rom support. I will get most probably Sensation or Atrix 2
Sensation VS Atrix 2
Memory 1VS 8GB(I will install a lot of apps and even if I move to SD still it does occupy some space on internal memory)
Ram 768MB VS 1GB( will it matter?)
Battery 1520vs 1785(Igyan specifically mentioned that Atrix2 has fabulous battery backup)
XDA forum also mentions some issues like dust underneath screen *forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1239238
Touchscreen issues *forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1239238
Reception issue *forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1615531
Screenshot issue *androidforums...shot-issue.html
Death grip issue is just an over exaggeration in my IMO.
I have also heard that Sensation is being discontinued and HTC will launch One S after stock clearence
Atrix 2 is also plagued by issues like Class 10 SD card
All in all I feel Atrix 2 is superior but over the years I have learn't that software updates is very important in whole user experinece. Sensation already has ICS update and since it was flagship device, it should get jelly beans(please comment). Custom rom support is also way better than atrix. I don't think moto will give jellybeans update to atrix(please comment).
Another concern is about service centres( IMO Apple Samsung and Nokia has best service in India)
So, I am basically torn between these two devices.
