Meet the HTC Sensation XE, the first concept phone made through HTC's partnership with Beats Audio. Their new device, sporting a 1.5 GHz dual core processor packed with a 1750 mph battery is a Beats audio powered device that comes coupled with a nifty pair of Beats audio ear buds. The attached ear buds have an inline remote that allows you to seamlessly change tracks or answer/end phone calls, so theoretically you can use it without having to take the phone out of your pocket. Unoriginal though because there are plenty of ear buds that come with remotes in them to help in a similar fashion. What makes this unique however is when the Beats official ear buds are plugged in, the device releases Beats technology to match the ear buds, giving you deeper bass and sharper vocals. Interesting to see how this goes with Android, as I have yet to see a particular Android marketed phone that offers something in the audio department (galaxy s PMP aside). I'm also wondering if there is  possibility of a Beats made music application to help better with the music development. The phone is promised to ship to Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East later this month, hopefully we'll see a North American release. I for one would love to get my hands on those earbuds.
