I was getting quite interested about this phone but if I'm reading right, It means no 3.5 Jack for audio, This is a major problem for me, I thought Samsung would have adopted removing the 3.5 Jack but they haven't.

    Based on the 5.5 inch screen I suspect they are still tied to not being able to make anything bigger but it will still come with silly bezels that make it bigger than competitor devices with bigger screens. Not forgetting it will come with too smaller battery and no waterproofing.

        Bluetooth 4.2 with Snapdragon 835!? HTC likes to shoot itself in the foot with this U disaster line...btw why should we need a sensitive frame? this sounds similar to the G5 modular gimmick

                  Although I lament over the disappearance of the good ol' 3.5 mm jack, this one is worthy of turning HTC's fortunes around. It comes with the core HTC strengths (Sense skin, HQ audio), and also ranks high on the innovation front with the pressure-sensitive frame (although, the usability is yet to be seen). I sincerely hopes the Ocean replicates the success wave that the original One (M7) once created.

                    Hoffmann, 03 Apr 2017Why not HTC 11 ? By the way, this phone looks promisingI was thinking the same

                      Hope they release it soon, so the s8 has some competition.

                        HTC...U have the best UI in the android world with a durable hardware...i am continuously using your smartphones from the past 6 years...from desire s to m7 and then upto htc 10 (currently in use)...i think U need to concentrate on your (1)camera experience....stop experimentation of camera with your top flagship device and do it somewhere else and bring down a more stable and refined camera experience...whenever I argue with a sammy fan...i lose it on camera department....(2) marketing section....one major reason why samsung sell so many millions of galaxies is its marketing......HTC needs to concentrate on this too....please please please...I love HTC phones...do not make me leave them... :(
