scorpio, 18 Aug 2017AnthOny does the ability to squeeze affect the rigidity or ... moreNo.......
It being a glass sandwich is what affects the strength of the phone.
The U Ultra has no edge sense and my back glass still broke inside a case..
It may be gorilla glass but I know from buying the replacement glass that it's less than a mm thick. That makes the glass weaker than the mid frame.
So you could bend the frame if you go out of your way to try but the glass is going to break long before that happens.
I have my phone in a spigan ruggid armor case & tampered glass for the front, so I assumed it was OK if it fell or I fell asleep with it on the bed.
I WAS WRONG. I don't even know when the back glass broke because the case is black and the frame is not bent, dented or scratched.

Anonymous, 17 Aug 2017Thanks for the analysis. Me as an average user, I'm looking... moreyou are correct.
For what you say is important to you, the $100 more will bring you no extra value.
Edge sense.
Think of it as a programmable button you activate by squeezing the sides of your phone. It's programmable for both a short & long squeeze function. you can even set how hard/soft you have to squeeze the button for it to work. if you don't want to use it, you just don't assign any function to it.
HTC twist on this button is....... it's under the side frame of the phone, so there is no physical button to see or complain about if you don't use it and it is not capacitive so it will work even when wet.

Anth0ny, 17 Aug 2017To answer your question Naftali...
1. U11 is IP67 water ... moreThanks for the analysis. Me as an average user, I'm looking mainly into:
1. Excellent camera.
2. Large display and vivid texture page for reading.
3. Reasonable battery life.
4. Device that its SW runs smoothly.
U11 does not have a significant advantageous over the U Ultra. (I have now Z3 Compact. It has a bad camera!)
What is "edge sense"?

scorpio, 17 Aug 2017U 11 also has newer Snapdragon 835ltra has Snapdragon 821. ... morethe average user is not going to notice the difference in chip set because the U Ultra is not slow in real world use.
you don't pay more for a smaller phone, that's why I didn't mention those 2 things.

1. U11 is IP67 water & dust resistance. The U Ultra is not.
2. U11 has edge sense. The U Ultra does not.
3. U11 has active noise cancellation for the ear buds. The U Ultra does not.
4. U11 comes with the 3.5 audio jack adaptor in the box. you have to buy it for $12US for the U Ultra.
5. U11 has Alexa. the U Ultra does not.
if you split the $100 with the 5 items, it would be 22+22+22+12+22
you decide if it's worth the extra money or if you would rather have the bigger main screen & the secondary screen of the U Ultra.

In my country the U11 is $100 more expensive compare to U Ultra.
What are the key features that a user can notice, that makes this different?
Does the U11 deserves this extra?

soheil, 10 Aug 2017my laptop and xbox one1. so you have the hotstop set to "always on" in the settings, so it's not that it is turning off, you are just losing your connection. that's correct?
2. you don't have energy saver on or on auto, so it is not cutting data when your screen turns off. and you are having the problem even with the screen on. that's correct also?
3. could it be bad cellular reception where you have the phone so the xbox is seeing it as the is no internet? if the phone is getting low 4g/LTE the XBOX or PC will say the internet is unstable.
4. if you have good cellular reception it could be wireless interference try switching the band from 2.4GHz to 5GHz in Advanced of the hotspot settings.

soheil, 06 Aug 2017it was set to always on.but i still have the problem.it is set to "always on" from the hotspot settings and power saver is off, and you still have the problem.
are you sure power saver is not set to auto for low battery?
are you having the problem on a full battery also?
about how long will you have a connection before the hotspot goes to sleep?
is it a set time with the screen off or will it even sleep with the screen on?
