HTC U Ultra Rant: Skip this One!

HTC U Ultra is new, but you should probably pass on this one. Here's why.

Phone provided by HTC for review.

2017: $750 = "definitely high end flagship"
2019: $750 = "premium mid-range"

[GroudFrank]

The most amazing thing about this phone isn't the price or the *poor use of space*. It's the fact that this phone passed through several departments and executives and it still got the green light.

"Poor use of space"
-MKBHD (2017)

*theres too much blue*

"seems like a poor use of space"

[jaoi]

HTC probably lost millions of dollars from this video alone

The tiny buttons look really off... like a full-grown man wearing tiny kids shoes

Doesn't take an engineer to figure out 3, 000mah battery in a phone that large is a bad idea...

Drinking game. Take a shot every time he says poor use of space.

They weren't expecting Marques to review their phone.

[Robert-goose]

HTC is falling apart. I remember when HTC was relevant.

[GeoffreyRamos]

Take a shot every time Marques says "poor use of space" lol

[Zellio]

So, you're telling me it's...

a poor use of space?

[vaibhavkhinvasara]

750 is no longer the high end range now

[PvtFallen]

damn, he just single-handedly destroyed this phone's chance of ever getting any sales

[tareek]

Ha! This phone is now 184$ on amazon. My second phone, here i come.

[STEFANDANKO]

Sooo... it seems that the best use of space of HTC is in a trash can

[Matticitt]

To sum this up: no headphone jack, no waterproofing, poor speakers, small fingerprint sensor,  ridiculously small battery (the Xiaomi Mi Mix has 4400mAh battery), no IR, no dual camera, bi camera hump, $750.

At the same time LG managed to create a smaller, thinner phone with same size screen, dual camera, no camera bump, a headphone jack, bigger battery and wireless charging.

HTC is a joke right now.

I think we could all agree that the best HTC phone was the M8.

Drinking game:
Every time he says "poor use of space" take a shot.
