Just how big is too big? The answer to this question
obviously isn't clear cut, as it depends on many factors. What's huge
for someone may be tiny for someone else. So if you don't think that
HTC's 4.7-inch Sensation XL is simply too big to be usable, here's some good news (especially if you live in the UK). The monster of a smartphone is now available at Three.
The device can be yours for free
if you sign a two-year contract that's at least £34 per month. That
cheapest option nets you 500 minutes, 5,000 texts, and 1 GB of data each
month. For £3 more you can get unlimited data, or you could choose
Three's The One Plan. That costs £40 per month, but brings you 5,000
Three-to-Three minutes, 2,000 nationwide minutes, 5,000 texts, and
unlimited data.
Or if you'd rather not do any contract signing, then you can get the Sensation XL on Pay as you go for £449.99. It's your choice really. Whatever that turns out to be, head over to Three to place your order.
And before you compare the Sensation
XL to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, do remember that the latter doesn't
have any touch-sensitive keys below the screen, which, alongside the
display's different aspect ratio, makes it narrower than the Sensation XL (though not by much).
