HTC Sensation UK Price Revealed by Retailer

Play opens pre-order - The HTC Sensation has popped up on its first priced-up page, complete with UK pricing.

Play.com will sell you the touch-tastic SIM-free handset for £499.99, pegging the HTC Sensation UK release date as 30 June.

No other retailer has yet dared to take a punt on pricing for the dual-core handset, although Clove has gone as far as to suggest a UK release date of 10 June.

Sensative

With spec like a dual-core 1.2Ghz processor, 4.3-inch qHD Super-LCD screen and Android 2.3 with Sense 3.0, we've got lofty expectations for the Sensation.

The question is: can it topple the similarly-specced Samsung Galaxy S2 as our best mobile phone in the world today?

We know you're all eagerly awaiting our definitive HTC Sensation review; it should be hitting TechRadar around mid-May. Stay tuned.
