HTC Sensation with Android 4.0 onboard dated for March 1st Euro launch

According to a press release issued on behalf of HTC’s Dutch office, an updated white version of the HTC Sensation is set to go on sale from March 1st in the country – with Google’s Android 4.0 “Ice Cream Sandwich” version of the OS onboard.

That’s exciting for literally several reasons – and mainly because it means HTC will have a fully-finished Android 4.0 update for the Sensation ready to launch by March 1st. Which means it may hit the regular HTC Sensation any day now. Hooray for that.

To help put the “Euro” into Eurodroid for the month of February, here’s a press release from HTC’s Dutch office in its native language.

HTC introduceert de HTC Sensation in Ice White

Nieuwste Android update voor alle toestellen uit Sensation-serie

Utrecht, 2 februari 2012 – HTC, leider in mobiele innovatie en design kondigt aan dat de HTC Sensation vanaf 1 maart ook beschikbaar is in de kleur Ice White. Het toestel is bovendien voorzien van Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). Naast de HTC Sensation in Ice White, is de update naar Android 4.0 binnenkort voor alle toestellen in de Sensation-serie beschikbaar.

De HTC Sensation in Ice White beschikt over dezelfde specificaties als het model in de kleur Grey, zoals een stijlvol design met aluminium en een royaal 4.3-inch qHD display. Hiermee profiteert de gebruiker van een optimale kijkervaring. Ook is de witte versie uitgerust met een 8-megapixel camera waarmee tevens full HD-video’s opgenomen kunnen worden. Gecombineerd met de gebruikservaring van HTC Sense zorgt dit voor een betere en meer persoonlijke beleving van Android.

Android 4.0
Door de update naar de nieuwste Android-versie kunnen gebruikers van de HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation XE en HTC Sensation XL profiteren van een nog snellere browse-ervaring. Daarnaast kunnen zij hun toestel ontgrendelen door middel van gezichtsherkenning (face unlock). Met Android 4.0 is het ook voor het eerst mogelijk in te zoomen op de agenda en onderaan in het home screen zelf een balkje met favoriete apps te creëren. Ook biedt Android 4.0 naadloze integratie met Google+, het sociale netwerk van Google. De update wordt binnenkort Over the Air (OTA) naar alle gebruikers uitgerold.

    I think that I personally am done with sense. ICS is lovely without it and given the ridiculous rate that HTC phones become obsolete and get dropped for updates its either a nexus or Samsung device for me from now on. Possibly Sony or LG depending on MWC.

      Nexus 5It’s smooth to use, the 1080p display is sharp, clear and bright, the device is extremely light and thin and therefore very pocketable and portable — much more so than other 5-inch phones we’ve used. And yet… we’re a bit unimpressed by the overall package…
