And after removing the nylon wrriten on display size..etc from front screen, is there any slim protector on screen like ones that come attached to other brands screens?
From experience, if case is hard and up side goes above front screen, it can provide screen protection too unless ofcourse you drop phone on something like a knife head or iron.. which will be crazy!! Even if phone drops on ground directly at face screen will not break with hard case on.

My last smartphone have its original company default screen protector(if it can even be named protector), and transparent thick case on(no top brand) and now when I remove the case it looks as if new phone and by the way it is 5.7'' and with WHITE back color too.
Unfortunately motherboard spoiled and not finding new one, so decided to buy new phone which is HTC U11 Solar Red 6gb..

1. tempered glass screen protector.
2. slickwraps skin to protect the back glass from scratching, which weakens the glass.
3. a TPU case to protect against shock damage caused by accidental drops.
HTC RMA department takes forever to do repairs (2 months minimum) so it's not something you ever want to use.

AnonD-702525, 03 Oct 2017Ordered HTC U11 Solar Red 6gb 128gb, because planning to ke... moreJust an update..... I got to play with Galaxy Note 8 for half an hour. Look wise and loaded feature wise no one can come closer to Galaxy S8 Series and Note 8 ( But be ready to accept lot of bloatware also)
When it comes to performance HTC U11 is hands down winner. It simply breeses through all the tasks you through at it like opening the apps or even loading the games. Even RAM management is awesome.
Camera detailing is simply superb even the Samsung sales guy was asking about my U11 for camera clarity.
I am not exaggerating here nor am I a HTC fanboy. But today I simply became HTC's software optimization fan. Well done HTC. Looking forward for OREO update.

It's a shame that in Europle users must pay over 100 euros more than Asia and the US.

*64GB Solar Red and al... moreI agree... 720 euros is not a small amount. But I believe if you are planning to use the mobile for long time its worth it.
After 7 days of useage. My opinion about U11 is:
1. Performance is really great. Equally snappy like pixel or oneplus5.
2. Ram management is great. I am talking about 6gb varient as we don't get 4gb here.
3. 128gb internal storage is really great to have as its convenient to carry my songs, videos, audiobooks etc. collections in my pocket rathr than relay on the mobile network and data to access from the cloud.
4. 6 hours of constant screen on time for me fr9m morning 9am till 11.30pm in the night with around 20% battery left.
5. Best camera around for detailed pics. There is a bit of noice in low light conditions but detailing in the pictures are excelent.
6. Great display. Decent enough brightness level for outdoor usage.
7. Awesome speaker and headphones output.
8. IP 67 rating works perfectly. I was caught up in sudden rain for more than half an hour with a heavy traffic jam and my mobile survives.
Cons:
1. Somtimes I miss the 3.5mm headphones jack.
2. If you want a full screen display mobile then this is not the one for you.
For everything else this is the best mobile of 2017....

AnonD-702525, 02 Oct 2017I want a very quick opinion from you and other users:
Fi... moreIn India all color options are available in 6gb and 128gb only with dual sim.
If you are a person who often change a mobile like me then buy 64gb varient and save few euros for your next purchase. If you are looking to use a mobile for a long term , may be like for 2 to 4 years then buy 6g and 128gb varient. Cause mobile technology is growing at a very fast pace. 2 years ago 3gb was the peak now its doubled. May be by 2018 second half all the upper mid range mobile may start giving you 6gb ram and then you might regret your choice.

Found this on HTC official site:
*64GB Solar Red and all 128GB devices are Dual Sim. Dual Sim smartphones can be used with only one SIM as well as two, with no affect on performance. All other 64GB HTC U11 devices come as Single Sim.
So seems my choice will switch to Solar Red 64gb or Solar Red 128gb
600 EUROS VS 720 EUROS which will you choose?

First, both HTC U11 Solar Red or Amazing Silver 4gb 64gb for 600euros, the first color red will reach next week while the second color can reach in few days this week if I order it asap.
On the other hand, both HTC U11 Solar Red or Amazing Silver 6gb 128gb for 720 euros!! will reach next week if I order it asap.
So only Amazing Silver 4gb 64gb for 600euros can have it in few days.
- Other than 1 week interval difference, do you think 120euros difference btw 6gb 128gb and 4gb 64gb is worth paying it for the first option?!
- Can the gbs be added to Rams later on and is 2gb worth 120euros!? since can use micro sd until 2tb to cover difference btw 64gb and 128gb.
- Toughest question maybe: if chose 4gb is it worth waiting Solar red for 7 days more than Amazing silver?
Lot of questions but can't see both colors in live...and not everyday buying expensive phone!

Dearest HTC and knowledge fan enthusiasts.We are almost in 2018 now!I don't know what'sggoing on in HTC!! A flagship with SD 835 and almost 30% bezels, not using Bluetooth 5,1 plus its auxiliaries,no IR blaster,not using USB 3.1 and otg,using incompatible battery and the most important using the ugliest hybrid !!!?Hopefully after Google purchase of some important shares from the HTC,we must not say goodbye to HTC as we did say to the Nokia....Google merger with the new younger innovative generations hopefully brings back luck to the HTC the used to be best quality maker !!! Justice Rights.Omid12Omidvar hates missing the HTC and thousands of jobs worldwide....

AnonD-702525, 01 Oct 2017Asked btw both colors which look best in case, and why did ... moreBoth color looks great. But what's best for me might not be so appealing for others. So its better to see it before you buy it.
Case provides in the box is ok, but it will not give you great all round protection as its a hard case and its just basic case. I prefer flexi cases with a bit of lip which comes above the screen for better grip and protection. Yes it will add up to the bulk but its safe.

amit, 29 Sep 2017Hi,
Please do,I am planning to buy. My concern is glass backI have written my review on 28th. If you Want performance over screen to body ratio, Great speakers, the best bundled earphone, great camera, sexy rear glass with cool looks, great battery life go for HTC U11.
If you want AMOLED curved screen, wireless charger, 3.5 mm earphone jack go with S8/S8+.
PS : Almost all the flagship devices are glass backed now a days and yes glass can break if it falls. So don't worry about the durability. HTC are one of the best quality mobile phone makers.
