Browser

The Sensation 4G offers a solid browsing experience through the stock Android browser. T-Mobile's HSPA+ network is reasonably speedy and robust. The Sensation 4G's browser rarely ran into any trouble. Despite its inability to use the fastest speeds from T-Mobile's HSPA+ network, there's no reason to complain about the Sensation 4G's web performance.

Customize

Phone Scoop has noted in the past how HTC's Sense user interface is one of the best when it comes to user customization. The Sensation 4G isn't any different in that regard. Sense lets users adjust about every element of the home screens, wallpapers and other behaviors of the phone.

The new customizable lock screen, in particular, will delight many users. This is an added bonus to the Sense 3.0 software.
