HTC Sensation XL Overview
The HTC Sensation XL is a bit bigger than the HTC Sensation with a 4.7 inch WVGA display, though its internals don't live up to the original as it's rumored to only have a 1.5GHz single-core processor.
There are also rear (likely to be HD but this is unconfirmed) and front cameras, but we don't know specifics. 768MB of RAM is modered by the original's standard. HTC's main focus is Beats audio, technology they acquired by acquiring the company.

HTC Sensation XL Reviews
CNET The HTC Sensation XL is the manufacturer's second Android phone, after the Sensation XE, to come equipped with Beats Audio and a matching set of headphones.
Phone Dog It's not coming to the United States, but if you're looking for a nice Android phone to purchase unlocked, the HTC Sensation XL could be the phone.
Slash Gear Seldom has the name of a phone been so obviously related to its proposition as with the HTC Sensation XL. Bearing a supersized 4.7-inch touchscreen along with Beats Audio, this “extra large” Android smartphone should arguably be the pinnacle of HTC’s multimedia range.
Pocket Lint If you like inches, you'll love the HTC Sensation XL. Picking up the form factor of the HTC Titan - effectively the same handset running Windows Phone 7 - the HTC Sensation XL sits on the top edge of what we'd call a phone.
Tech Radar The HTC Sensation XL (try to keep up) instead offers a larger screen than the original Sensation, but with a 1.5GHz single-core processor, 16GB of built-in memory, and Beats Audio (like the XE).
Phone Arena We have a new entrant in the Sensation line of HTC phones, people, and it comes with Beats Audio as well. The HTC Sensation XL differs from its other peers in the lineup with the huge 4.7” LCD display, and the lower hardware specs.
