Differences between different HTC phones

Is there really a difference /benefit of going for the latest phone?

HTC Sensation has a 1.2 GHz dual core processor but does that make it faster / better than Desire S or Incredible S?

It depends what you are going to use the handset for, as time goes on and resource hungry apps arrive , then the dual core units may prove a great advantage.

Re the processor, it's the same as for PCs. Only you know whether you need the most advanced one and want to pay for it.

The Sensation is HTC's current flagship phone. It's actually a 1.5Ghz CPU they've underclocked to 1.2GHz (maybe so it makes the upcoming Sensation Beats Special Edition look better value - http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/31/htc-working-on-sensation-special-edition-with-beats-and-1-5ghz-d/)

The Incredible S is not too far off in specs, but is currently available at CPW for £269.95 SIM free, which is a bargain - http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/mobiles/mobile-phones/HTC-INCREDIBLE-S/HANDSET
