HTC sensation (sense 3.0) is beautiful and it made sense 2.3 a breeze. Moreover it’s a bad news for other
HTC android phones as all the features of HTC sense 3.0 are not coming to them.
A lot of spinning 3D carousel elements is featured in the new HTC sense 3.0 UI which are flashy and fast. These actually make selecting your items a more visually-pleasing experience.
Unluckily, it looks like this will only land on the modern devices like the Flyer tablet, EVO 3D and the HTC Sensation if you were hoping to get this on your EVO 4G.
” … due to Sense’s hardware requirements, only our newest devices (Flyer, EVO 3D, Sensation) will be able to support it.” Was the answer to a person’s question by HTC who asked whether sense 3.0 would come to older devices?
It later clarified that this means older hardware won’t get all the features of HTC Sense 3.0 UI but these devices will be getting some of the new tricks.
HTC said in an official tweet,” Clarification: aspects of the latest HTC Sense won’t work on some previous devices. We are working to incorporate other aspects that will.”
At first I thought this was a dual core issue but later it strikes me that the HTC Flyer or EVO View is only rocking a single-core processor and will be getting the new version. Though the Thunderbolt rocks a powerful single-core processor but doesn’t appear to be getting it either.
As these new devices have the latest version of the Adreno lineup and this is capable of some high-performance graphics I guess the main culprit has to be the GPU. It’s not too much of a hassle as long as HTC brings the core features of HTC Sense 3.0 to the older versions.
So friends what’s your opinion?
