The Amaze bears a close resemblance to the Sensation 4G phone from HTC. The fact that this handset received the CNET Editor Choice award, it was not a bad point to begin.

This indicated that either the company was unsure about the connectivity in the location or this HSPA+42 system may still be unprepared for this feature. Nonetheless, using this network, both the phones, Amaze and Galaxy SII can theoretically offer a speed of 42 Mbps.
