Basically what are your thoughts on the HTC Sensation vs. Samsung Galaxy S2

My current phone is a piece of sh1t and want to get a decent media device. I like the android OS and marketplace, thats why an iPhone isnt on the list.

Cheers guys, Im not the most tech savvy with phones and I know some people on this board will be absolute geniuses in the area.

Also to make this DJ related; has anyone had success using midi android apps for controlling their software, would be a cool little trick to mess around with.

Thanks

HTC Desire HD (running Gingerbread) - in a league of it's own.

More of an iPhone person myself, but I've heard some good things about the HTC sensation. The design isn't my thing though, the Samsung S2 looks better. My sister had some bad experiences with two early Samsung android phones. Regular crashes. But that was the early days, I guess.
Edit: I think the Sensation does run Gingerbread as well, but not sure.
If I had to choose, I'd probably browse around the net and check which company has the better track record as far as support and updates are concerned.
