Difference Between HTC Sensation and LG Optimus 2X

HTC Sensation vs LG Optimus 2X

The HTC Sensation aims to bring the Sensation back on top of its competitors like LG, which is relatively new when it comes to smartphones. The LG came out with the Optimus 2X a few months back, with the 2X clearly indicating that it has a dual core processor. The most noticeable difference between the Sensation and the Optimus 2X is their screens. The Sensation has a slightly bigger 4.3 inch screen compared to the 4 inch screen of the Optimus 2X. But, the IPS screen of the Optimus 2X seems to give superior performance. It has better viewing angles and contrast compared to the S-LCD screen of the Sensation.

Despite the both of them having dual core processors, their chipsets is quite different. HTC uses the chipset from Qualcomm with a modified A8 processor that is clocked at 1.2Ghz. On the other hand, the Optimus 2X goes with the Tegra 2 chipset from Nvidia with a 1Ghz A9 processor. Most benchmarks put the Sensation at a solid lead, but there are a couple of benchmarks where the Optimus 2X is in the lead.

Another fundamental difference is in the memory. The Sensation has a minimal amount of internal memory but ships with an 8GB memory card. In contrast, the Optimus 2X doesn’t ship with a memory card but already has 8GB of internal memory. It seems that the Optimus 2X has the better approach as you can easily augment it with another memory card.

The cameras of the Sensation and the Optimus 2X are pretty evenly matched, aside from a couple of differences. The first is the higher resolution of the front facing camera of the Optimus 2X; 1.3 megapixels for the Optimus 2X and 0.3 megapixels for the Sensation. But, the Sensation has the advantage when it comes to the flash as it has two LED bulbs compared to just one in the Optimus 2X.
