HTC U11 first look

The HTC U11 is the successor to last year’s HTC 10, and has a 5.5-inch, Quad HD display, Snapdragon 835 processor, and new glass and metal design. It's new feature “Edge Sense” will let you squeeze the sides of the device to perform different functions.

Every tech channel I am subbed to just posted this at the same time.

I really like this phone. I think that a lot of negativity in the comments comes from the current unpopularity of HTC. But the features seem solid. Maybe you should give it a chance.

Every phone htc released is one phone closer to their last

I can't believe how many ignorant comments there are here. Everyone saying it has bezels and no head phone jack, yet they consider the iPhone a proper flagship. 1) The U11 has smaller bezels than the iPhone 7+, 2) the iPhone 7+ doesn't come with a headphone jack either, yet HTC offers amazing noise cancelling earphones that sound, provide the adaptor in the box and the quick charger 3.0 ) much better than the shitty Apple or Samsung earphone's they would otherwise plug in and people still complain, 3) The price is way cheaper than the comparable iPhone 7+ and GS8 and that's the main complaint. FFS this phone is cheaper and far better than the iPhone 7+ and all these stupid commenting that it's too expensive.. However the majority of these liked top comments, have worthless arguments with contradictory points.) it seems to me you just hate HTC.

so htc could add dual boom sound speakers on the m7/8 which had a headphone jack, but had to skip it on this phone to "improve" the speaker quality by adding a side firing speaker

“It will be priced the same as other
flagship phones in this price-range.”
Wait, what?

[madgoat]

"R.I.P HTC" Samsung fanboys everytime HTC releases a new phone.

I honestly don't get why this phone is getting so much hate. It is cheaper than most other 2017 flagship devices coming at the price of $650US. It has one of the best camera and speaker on any smartphone. It has 2k LCD display with punchy and accurate colors. It also has a very good audio output and comes with a decent pair of earbuds. It is well optimized, and has all the newest hardware built into the phone. Why so much hate?

With that huge bottom bezel that could sink the Titanic again, and they couldn't fit a headphone jack... HTC has been lagging lately.

[MujahidOmer]

I'm impressed. I wasn't expecting much of this after seeing the Ultra. But I like the U11

[zazaziah]

I love the whole design except the headphone thing. I know I know! That's all people have been talking about. But as long as I can use wireless headphones( beats) then I we'd no problem with this phone. It's so shiny and I love the little squeeze thing they've got going on. I've been with HTC since I got my first cell phone and I don't plan on leaving. plus htc allows you to customize SO much more things than a simple apple or Samsung and that's what I really love about it.

[domsorrow]

that bezel gap from the screen to the home button is equivalent to the S8's chin.

[karankantprasad]

best practical flagship smartphone 2017

[Fruitarian.]

wow everyphone from htc is getting better this is a total s8 killer

[france_d_robin]

You people are so annoying and clearly are hating just to hate. This is not the best phone ever created but it's pretty freakin' solid. It has the same specs as an S8 and (possibly) a better camera. Sense is better than TouchWiz to me. It has pressure sensors that's pretty unique. They even give you nice pair of headphones so idk what everyone is being so dramatic about. If the headphone jack is that critical for you just don't get the phone but that doesn't mean the phone sucks.

[AP-koxy]

Verge.. you guys are the best at reviews..

[TransportLover]

WHAT DO YOU WANT? Seriously every single phone HTC releases people hate on it.

[kusaluprety]

"It's going to be priced as much as other flagship pones in this price range" Thanks for being so clear on that . . .

[VincentMichael]

wow this looks so LUXE, lush and gorgeous! I love the squeeze sensors! what a novel idea. the liquid metallic finished looks really nice too. I just wish it would work on Google's Project fi. but also the bezels are almost as enormous as the ones on my pixel XL. it would be interesting if it were a little slimmer from top to bottom

[heastin]

I dumped my s8+ for this phone, and what a world of difference from coming from touch whiz to nearly stock android. I think more companies like HTC should do the things they have done, just add a few features that people like myself enjoy, such as double tap to wake and sleep and then also expandable storage with water resistance. Wireless charging is nice but I shouldn't have to buy a separate accessory for a phone to utilize that feature of the phone. This phone works for me and in my opinion its the perfect phone for me in 2017 and one that I picture myself having for a while.
