what's up everyone john wetton japan TechnoBuffalo here from CES 2012 with the HTC Titan 2 and I'll give you a guess if you can figure out which one is a Titan 2 and which one is a Titan 1 let's go ahead and compare these two super phones thanks to Ford for powering our CES coverage so for those of you that guess the phone on the left you are correct this is the HTC Titan 2 and this is its older brother I guess the HTC Titan 1 which is my daily driver so I'm quite excited to see what the Titan 2 has to offer let's go ahead and turn both these phones on we'll do a real quick comparison of both of them so looking at them from the front they're gonna look very very similar you've got that same 4.7 inch screen 480 by 800 resolution that we saw on the first generation versus the second generation the facade again very similar you've got those three Windows Phone buttons the back button the windows button and the search button we really can see a difference is when you flip them on the back sides here we've got the HTC Titan 2 with the soft touch rubber feel to it HTC Titan 1 was all metal a bit more of an industrial feel a little more subtle differences as well LED flash on the 2 is on the right and where it's on the left on the Titan 1 and the speaker sides are reversed but it starts to see a difference of these cameras obviously much bigger sensor here we're looking at a 16 megapixel sensor on the HTC Titan 2 versus the 8 megapixel shooter on the HTC Titan 1 so big differences here as far as the cameras so talking about the design a little bit more you can certainly see the difference the metal feels really nice on the HTC Titan 1 I did like it it was able to get scratched quite a bit I'm a bit more partial to the soft touch feel looking forward to trying to HD Titan to what you can't see and what's running through the air though is 4G LTE we're only rockin HSPA+ on the Titan 1 but we've got full 4G LTE support here on the Titan to the screen so are essentially identical speeds almost identical as well this is running a qualcomm since HTC Titan 2 is running a Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.5 gigahertz single core chip this is also a 1.5 right single courtship also built by Samsung so very similar here that the difference is that you're gonna get as a 4G LTE connectivity and that 16 megapixel shooter so I'll go ahead and shoot a couple pictures and show you guys differences between the quality of the Titan 2 and a Titan 1 it could decide whether or not it's worth an upgrade I'm a big fan of Windows Phone 7 I've gone on record saying I really enjoy the Metro UI I like the live tiles I think it's got a fun fresh feel to it so again looking forward to seeing what the Titan 2 can bring and if it can live up to the pretty nice standards of the Titan 1 or whether or not it's going to fall a little bit flat so I am John Rhett endure from TechnoBuffalo sure to check us out for the rest of our CES 2012 coverage this has been a real quick first look in comparison at the Titan 2 versus the HTC Titan 1 in the next video you
