The newest member to the HTC Sensation family is now available in the UK. The monstrous 4.7″ display on this equally substantial device comes with Beats Audio, and has now officially made its debut in the UK. It’s available in both subsidized and SIM free options.

Available on contract from Three, one of the UK’s top carriers, the phone will be available for free with a new two-year, £40 per month contract which includes all you can eat data. For those of you who fancy some Beats action but not the contract, Clove is also offering the device from today SIM free and unlocked for £486.

The Sensation XL comes out the box running Sense 3.5, Android 2.3.5 and packs a very snappy 1.5GHz processor.
