Hello! Those who've had this phone for a while now, have you experienced any lag so far? I'm looking for an upgrade that can last me for a good while. Also, how delicate is this thing? So much glass is a bit daunting for a not so coordinated person like me.

if you read the description of both the nano liquid & the tempered glass,
they are both called screen protectors.
but you need to ask your self "protection from what?"
then when you read on, you will see they say scratches and fingerprints
No where is it written that it protects against breakage. so the lifetime replacement warranty is not going to cover brokerage a.k.a cracks. but the tempered glass has a bit of an advantage over the nano liquid as it has a thickness to absorb some impact where the liquid absorbs nothing.

AnonD-702525, 16 Oct 2017Found this too that has best reviews for HTC U11 Screen pro... moreThe short answer is NO.
let me explain.....
your phone digitizer glass is gorilla glass 5. it has a hardness of a level 6
that means anything with a level 6 or harder can scratch it. the metal for keys are softer than a level 6 but sand is a level 6. so guess what dirty keys can do or a dirty table or floor.
so the nano liquid makes it that sand/grime don't stick to the glass and cause scratching when it moves around.
the tempered glass protector stops scratching to your digitizer glass by covering it with a hardened thin layer of glass that is less than 1mm thick.
neither the nano liquid or the less than 1mm thick tempered glass can stand up to a point load impact (which is what happens in a fall or lash on an uneven surface.)
gorilla glass as a material is tough, unfortunately, what is being used on your screen is not 12mm thick as shop front glass. it is less than 1mm thick and adding a nano liquid to it does not change the glass to steel. so a point load on a hardened thin glass is going to break it.
putting a tempered glass on the phone give the point load something other than your glass digitizer to hit. the tempered glass you put on phones are hard and will disperse the force from 1 point to over the entire front of the phone preventing damage to the digitizer glass below it. but just like the gorilla glass digitizer it is less than 1mm thin and can also break if the point load is high enough.
you may think to your self "what is the point of putting on the tempered glass if it can still break?"
and the short answer is... is easier and cheaper to replace a broken tempered glass than it is to replace a broken gorilla glass digitizer.
when the nano liquid false in a fall or lash, it's the gorilla glass of your phone that is going to break.

The liquid adds a little more oil and scratch resistance which is fine for normal use but what about when you drop your phone? Oil & scratch resistants don't stop the glass from cracking. And that is what you need most with this phone (crack resistance).
It's not going to matter if it is skin oil free if the glass is cracked.

1. Install any file manager e.g. HTC file manager.
2. On the root of the phone storage create a new folder and call it
Notifications
3. Copy any mp3 you want to use as a notification tone to that folder.
It will automatically be added to your list.
Note; you can also create the notifications folder on the root of the SD card if you so choose, but it's not recommend if you remove your card from time to time. Because your selected tone will reset to a system default ever time you do that.

You can add different notification tones. Check some in theme stores.
Yes we don't have volume control buttons in the provided earphones. That we have to live with or else have to invest another 40Euros and get Soundmagic earphones.
But i think you will get used to it.

Many gus spoke about pros of HTC U11 and I mostly agree..as on unique design, good battery, super sound quality, smooth fast performance...
I will only talk about not the cons but some missing things found like why the earphones do not have volume button?
Notification sound can not be added out of default list(like any phone boring sounds honestly), will try adding songs through pc copying to its folder maybe works..
