Totally respectable in my experience with this phone
And generally above average. 3000mAh doesn't seem like much with a 5.5" screen

The editors didn't like
This screen has embarrassing light bleed along the lower bezel. Come on
HTC
Do I need to say anything else? HTC does include a 3.5mm adapter as well as its USBC U Sonic earbuds in the box
At least
This is one of the most slippery phones I have ever us
No headphone jack (ugh!)
Low-quality 3.5mm adapter
Disappointing selfie camera
Prev4 of 4Next
Body prone to fingerprints
No separate headphone jack
Glass build makes this fragile and a fingerprint magnet
Bezels are bigger than some other 2017 phones
No 3.5mm audio jack
Mode switching on the camera is clunky
No headphone jack
Back panel attracts fingerprints
Battery life is only OK
Fingerprint magnet
Lacks 3.5mm audio socket
Misses out on Bluetooth 5.0

The player is expensive and defiantly free of built-in streaming features. Picture performance isn't readily distinguishable from players at half the price
HDR
Average battery life
A bit bulky
Lack of a headphone jack is a nuisance
Squeeze feature is a complete gimmick
Not offered by 3 of the 4 major US carriers
Dated look
Noisecanceling earbuds aren't quite as impressive as they could be
Edge Sense feels overengineered (for what could be just a button)
Fancy audiorecording features difficult to appreciate
Battery size and performance don't impress
Substantial bezels
No headphone jack and only proprietary USB-C headphones work
Very slippery in the hand
Attracts fingerprints
Only in Sprint stores
Wireless charging is MIA
Glossy design looks great but is a fingerprint magnet
Lack of 3.5mm audio jack
Edge Sense needs more work
No HDR10 support at launch
No dual camera system
Pricey
HTC loves bezels. No headphone jack
Glass design is slippery and fragile
Battery life could be better
The Sense interface is getting old
SoC throttling under load
MicroSD slot is just average
Doesn't support aptX
Not all functions available when recording video
In some outdoor scenes a slight bluish cast is visible
Abstract: As we near the halfway point of the year, we're about to enter that lull period in the mobile industry where flagship announcements are few and far between. In previous years, Taiwan-based HTC has been consistent about introducing its flagship phone earli...
Abstract: In five years reviewing smartphones I don't think I've ever seen one so full of contradiction as the HTC U11. A stunning backplate mated to a forgettable face; fast software blunted by extraneous gimmicks; slick multimedia features without a big battery t...

Class-leading performance, Bright, 5.5-inch QHD display, Fantastic BoomSound speakers, Gorgeous design with IP67 water resistance
Average battery life, No headphone jack, A bit bulky
HTC can keep its Sense Companion and its squeezable Edge Sense controls. Those features work as advertised, but I don't need 'em. The things that really makes the U11 stand out are its unique jewel-like design, thumping BoomSound speakers, superb performa...

The HTC U11 is a seriously good phone. HTC has combined beautiful design, superlative build quality, thoughtful features, and a restrained customization of Android. Problem is, I suspect few will ever actually see one.It's fair to say that HTC is lacking...
The HTC U11 is exactly the kind of flagship phone that the company needed to launch in 2017. It's once again a highly enjoyable all-round experience, but feels fresh enough to stand out against earlier handsets and rival premium mobiles.Sure, some of the...

The HTC U11 is somewhat of a phone unstuck in time. It's got all the processing might of any 2017 flagship, offers a modern, quite useful digital assistant, and dips its toes in high-tech features like active noise cancellations. But it's also a phone tha...
When I reviewed the U Ultra, I could see the potential in the design and hardware execution — that phone was just unfortunately saddled with multiple issues including its size, a couple bad internal spec choices, a subpar camera and a far-too-high price...
The HTC U11 has a great potential that we are looking forward to unlocking and testing for a longer period in the field. From our short exposure to it, and from the technical data we have gathered, the timing of its launch places HTC firmly in the high-en...

The flagship smartphone HTC U 11 is quite good in terms of the technical component: here you have a top-end processor, and 6 GB of RAM, and a camera with optical stabilization, and a high screen resolution, and LTE CAT 16 networks and so on.From the point...
