Not worst design
5.5 IPS screen (no burn-in or greenish colours like Samsung)
good audio capabilitiews
the question only in camera departmen, as from samples they are all out of focus, maybe it's software bug, but could be crucial hardware defect also

ziad1, 17 May 2017First of all, htc is not idiot, it knows what it does. Seco... moreLol dude, u don't understand. Some people chose headphone jacks cos there is one more cable for u to plug in. When theres only type c cable for u to plug in charge but cannot plug in headphones, plus it is a flagship u are talking about, that is a disappointment. Of course he will say HTC is an idiot. They did it on the HTC U ULTRA and now on the HTC U11. They try to make it a true flagship, but misses the most important thing the headphone jack. Definitely an idiot.

AnonD-669792, 16 May 2017My point is one should either buy a expensive flagship wort... moreBro, I think that Mi6 and U11 should not be compared. That doesn't mean one is better than another, but they are in totally different leagues. Mi5 and oneplus 3 are comparable. I mean, that these phones are excellent, but the differences are deep compared to full fledged flagships.
Oneplus 3t has a beautiful AMOLED screen, but not QHD. So if you only care that "screen should look great" oneplus is excellent and one should never feel the lack of resolution. Second, speakers. If you only care that "sound should be great" one plus is excellent. but you want 32bit /24bit gimmick /4 mics etc it cannot satisfy u. Oneplus or xiaomi don't get the high resolution audio, they (so far) don't provide waterproofing , neither SD card, neither high resolution audio recording, neither the best camera sensors available.
So the point is, that if your budget is 400, then OP /XIAOMI are best options. if you can stretch it to 600 dollars, still settle for op/xiaomi (say, in 2k16, OP3t /Mi5) and don't burden yourself and you'll hopefully won't regret. but if you can pay as much as 800 /1000 without a worry, then buy 700 flagship (s7 /v20 /10, in 2016 rather than OP or MI) and u will always have best of phone experience.

gsmarena, please include an information about a notification LED in the specification as well as in such hands-ons. This is a crucial feature for some of us and, as you should know, it is integrated in less and less devices nowadays.

AnonD-145316, 18 May 2017For those people who worry about HTC U 11 3000mah battery ... moreSomehow agree that only the mah count cannot tell the whole story, but people complaining about battery size isn't wrong either because they could have " squeezed " a bigger battery considering the size of the phone. Oneplus 3t is a little smaller and packs a 3400 mah battery+3.5mm jack , while Mi6 is even smaller and packs 3350 Mah battery with losing headphone jack.

For those people who worry about HTC U 11 3000mah battery capacity, just checkout the review of HTC U ultra it has the same 3000mah with larger display of 5.7" (secondary display included) with Snapdragon 821 and the phone managed an 81hrs endurance rating! So you can just imagine How the enduarance of U11 would be, which has 5.5" display with no secondary display and efficient snapdragon 835. Nowdays it's not about capacity numbers rather the efficiancy of the chipset help by software

Vic, 18 May 2017This phone is definitely end of HTC. Sadly. These guys don'... moreSamsung S8 is a S7 with less bezels, that technology is owned form Sharp Companies, Samsung copied before Xiaomi did too. Nothing new, same camera than S7, same audio, same software. Thanks god LG G6 has a different software more intuitive and modern than S8. An inferior Snapdragon but you will not notice differences.

HTC did a great work, this is an amazing phone. They did an innovation at the side of the phone, Samsung didn't bring us nothing new, less bezels in screens began years ago with Sharp.

This phone is definitely end of HTC. Sadly. These guys don't understand market, don't understand what customers need and not even trying to listen. Unfortunately, golden days of the company are years behind.

AnonD-669792, 18 May 2017Totally why wouldn't you pick a phone with a inferior camer... moreAre you A Medical Student or a Mental Student. I didnt wanted to reply to your comment. But Here I am.
1) Do you work for samsung ? Or Mi ?
2) Have you ever used urself a HTC ?
3) You said your friends used HTC and U will never use it again. My Friend Used S7 it lags as ****. I start going to GSM all most and telling them Samsung lags.
4) Are you even real or some Samsung hired person who ditches about all the other brands with newer username ?
Do some real work we are going to ignore you. Its a good phone or not that's something everyone must deicde by buying an using it.
I have a Xperia / MI / Samsung / HTC with me. I design apps for fun in android. So stop your shit and get a life.

AnonD-669792, 18 May 2017Totally why wouldn't you pick a phone with a inferior camer... moreYou will probably go for a HTC 11 because it has a better camera, better UI, better build quality, best audio on the market, guaranteed to work years without lagging.
What exactly does the S8 have ? Its a S7 with a upgraded screen. Camera scores are the same as the S7, it has been proved that their build quality is quite inferior to other flagship phones.
It brings NOTHING new.
