I once posted about the sexual handset that is the HTC Sensation. It now looks woefully inadequate next to this:  The HTC Desire S also looks great. Looks like a good year for handsets!

The reviews I've read put the Sensation ahead. The blacks aren't as black as the Samsung and it is a smidgin slower, but a) it isn't a Samung, b) the build quality is better, c) the Sense UI looks better, d) it isn't a Samsung, e) the metal case oozes class, compared to the plastic fantastic of the Samsung...
To be honest, I'm in two minds, I'd probably go for the Desire S or Sensation over the Samsung - I currently have an htc Mozart and it is lovely. I'm still not sold on Android, but it is improving. I'm sticking with iOS and WP7 at the moment though.

I've just come across the Xperia Arc from Sony Ericsson. I was never a fan of the X10 or the awful "mini" version, but this looks quite decent: http://mirrors.techtaps.com/wp-content/ ... -harga.jpgThere's still something about it which makes me wary, but I'd be tempted to have a "hands on" with one.

I hear the S2 is very good but I'd still opt for the Sensation personally

I've seen a couple of the S2s on the train. The AMOLED screen is amazing to look at.
