HTC U11 Plus 128GB

Advantages: The battery holds very well, the phone is optimized correctly (it does not heat up, does not strain from applications), the color is silver - fire! I was struck by the speed of performance - the installation of applications is almost instantaneous. I liked the camera too. In short, I'm satisfied.

Disadvantages: Until I found out, maybe there are some shades of the screen as they wrote, but my eyes are beautifully comfortable and pleasant, my eye did not catch.

Comment: A bit too big for 1-handed operation, I decide by optimizing the placement of the labels. The power and volume buttons are quite embossed, I like them, they are convenient to use without looking at the phone.

Advantages: Everything is fine and even HTC Sense really works.

Disadvantages: They are not for me

Comment: It’s a pity, I didn’t wait for this phone, I bought a Samsung s8 plus instead of the LG G6 that got the brake. And when this device reached us, I got rid of the s8 and bought it. The main reason for the replacement is the screen (s8 hurts my eyes), sound (heaven and earth), the difference in the speed of the interface (next to HTC, S8 plus works like an old nag even with the animation off), battery (s9 is good only in medium mode energy saving), almost pure Android 8.0 and work with gloves was not forgotten. The last time I used the first one from htc, I remember the wow effect of the revolutionary case and sound at that time, but after a couple of months the battery began to die after breakfast and I no longer risked with this manufacturer, but today, in my opinion, this is the best offer on the market. at least until the exhibition in Barcelona.

Advantages: Build quality, sound, autonomy, reception quality, camera, stable performance. I really liked the "smart button" in the form of ej-sense. I assigned a flashlight for long-term compression, which starts from any state of the phone, except for the completely turned off, of course. For a short time of use, I have already helped out several times.

Disadvantages: In my opinion - the screen. Before HTC U11 +, I had BlackBery PRIV, Huawei Mate 9 PRO, Samsung Galaxy S8, all of them equipped with AMOLED displays with QHD resolution. Well, my eye has already got used to a brighter picture over the past 2.5 years, and to the fact that black is really black. I just can't rebuild back. Most likely I will change the phone.

Comment: The device turned out to be of good quality. I was very pleased with the native shell. I have been using it for a long time, and I consider it one of the best. Before PRIV there were several devices from HTC. It's a shame HTC have abandoned their browser. As for me, he was good too. It could have been slightly modified to meet modern requirements, and it would have been the best. Everything was fine with the phone, except for the screen (this is purely personal perception). I heard that there are people who have a headache from prolonged use of AMOLED displays at low brightness, due to PWM. I don't have such a problem. If for some reason you do not like AMOLED technology, I definitely recommend this device for purchase.

Advantages: - the camera is one of the best at the moment !!! And there is no need to compare marketing with pixels; - battery (autonomy); - your style, without emphasis on the stub; - good old Sense; - waterproof IP68; - excellent response to a fingerprint (before that there were instances with some glitches in this regard); - there is no jack for headphones Jack. I don’t listen to music on my body and I don’t need this extra “hole” (technological hole) ...; - I was pleased with the 3D video sound recording, which filters out extraneous noise when zooming on a specific object; - in terms of characteristics and quality with the same Gnusmas, taking into account minor +/-, it costs 10 tr. cheaper, at least in Rostov-n / D. - we are waiting for the promised Android 9 Pie in the first half of the 19th ...

Disadvantages: - the screen resolution is too high (you could have done without fullHD); - the brightness of the screen falls short, but in the sun everything is readable; - there is a hall sensor, but it is almost impossible to find smart book covers on free sale, only if you search on Ali; - the meaning of the glass case if there is no wireless charging? - bumper cover from the kit - "tear it off and throw it away ..."; - face recognition - also from the series "tear it and throw it away ..." (maybe they will adjust it by software); - there are practically no native applications left - everything is from Google, but this is so, thinking out loud - everything you need to use by default.

Comment: For several years I have been hearing the funeral of HTC, but I still can't get it ... The company can when it wants.

Advantages: 1. Performance. I'm not a gambling addict, although no, no, yes, I will play something. I have never experienced any problems in launching games. All games can be easily pulled at maximum settings. 2. The amount of RAM. In my version, it has 6 gb, the stock of free RAM is on average 40-50%, that is, the phone is almost always loaded with 50-60% and 3-4 gb of RAM. The system itself holds about 2 gigs on average, everything else is workflows and applications. 3. The amount of memory. 128 gigs is perfect. 4. Camera. Has both pros and cons. In general, the quality of the photos suits me, and the video is the same. But there are no such chips - portrait photography, bokeh and other novelties that are in other flagships. 5. The shell. It is understandable, pleasant to look at, everything is convenient. Although there are downsides, this is the downside. 6. Size - shovel, I like). 7. The sound is excellent, both from the speakers and headphones. By the way, the bundled headphones are quite good quality. 8. There is a quick charge, on average a full charge is 1 hour 40-45 minutes. 9. Sensitive edges. They are and are. They do not give fatal advantages.

Disadvantages: The main disadvantage is the terrible heating of the case, in AIDA 64 it shows heating of individual elements up to 85 degrees. Sometimes holding the phone is uncomfortable and you can't put it in your pocket. This disadvantage can cover almost all the advantages of the phone. 1. Camera. there are no such chips as portrait photography, bokeh and other novelties that are in other flagships. 2. Unlocking by face. It exists, but the algorithm of work simply forces you to abandon its use. To unlock the phone in this way, you need to perform as many as three steps: 1. Press the power button (or do a double tap on the screen, by the way, and this function works extremely poorly, it works once out of five to seven attempts). 2. Bring the phone to your face. 3. Swipe your finger / hand across the unlock screen. Yes, while OP, Huawei and others are already activating the use of face unlock with might and main, simply by bringing the phone to your face, it takes 5-10 seconds here. 3. The shell as a whole is very good, but some very, for me personally, important functions are missing: for example, recording conversations, setting the priority of a SIM card for a subscriber, there is no possibility of cloning applications. We have a two-digit phone and it is quite clear that many accounts in various social networks and instant messengers are possible, but no ...... 4. There is simply no manufacturer's support: I have the phone in my hands in use from the end of December 2017 until the moment When writing this review, only one android update (security system) and EVERYTHING came from the manufacturer. No enhancements or new features, adaptations or enhancements to the current phone capabilities. How strange .... 5. The power button is slightly loose. Although the phone is always in a case and I use it very carefully and carefully. 6. After the update, some applications change their location in the phone 7. There is no gesture control mode - from the word at all. 8. It is not always possible to copy text from an article on the Internet or an application.

Comment: I got HTC U11 Plus 6 * 128 at the very beginning of sales. And on December 27, 2017, I had it in my hands. Up to this point, over the past 6 years I have used only apples (3g, 4,6) / Tired of the immutability of this device in terms of internal space and appearance. Going from six again to six (7.8), I considered not an interesting option. Once, about four years ago, I tried to switch to Samsung, but did not last and returned to apples for a month. And with HTC I have been going for more than six months and have norms (although I want a second phone or a phone that will allow cloning applications, since this is very necessary for work). In principle, I chose the phone based on a set of requirements: powerful hardware, a large amount of memory (after iPhones, I wanted to forget about the concept of insufficient space), good sound in headphones and from speakers, a camera. At that time, this device satisfied all my requirements. In the process of using, of course, new Wishlist appeared, which I think now how to implement it. Most of all saddens the complete absence of any updates from the manufacturer, as well as the inability to clone applications and the lack of priority settings for contacts by SIM cards. The phone is definitely not bad, but it may be a little undersized at its price, as well as all flagships.

Advantages: The display format 18: 9 fits comfortably in the hand The smartphone is heavier than the previous One E9 +, also in addition to the convenience of holding in the palm The camera shoots perfectly, and at night and during the day The case ... This is something ... telegram, sites, played a little) 25% battery consumption

Disadvantages: Price adjusted for inflation rates)))

Comment: Regular headphones, despite the manufacturer's assurances, are not sonorous, I will write it off on the love of full-size monitor headphones.The kit comes with a bumper, the seller tried to sell a separate one, it's good that I did not agree. The camera shoots at night without graininess on automatic parameters (I'm not a photographer, I don't go into manual settings)

Advantages: - The smartphone is quite weighty. Lies well in the hand. My hands are not big and because of this it is not always convenient to use it with one hand, but it is possible. - Monolithic brick made of glass and metal has a convenient arrangement of buttons for both right and left hands + edge. Squeezing turned out to be very handy. - The screen is an advantage, because it is not amoled and the like + has a bunch of temperature settings, etc. - In general, the settings on android smartphones have always been good, but htc offers more. The rest that htc offers I will write down in cons. - The camera here is just a flame - high detail, hdr, speed, a bunch of (again) settings. My subjective - the camera is one of the best at the moment. The only "but" is the noise, but this is a disadvantage. - The speed of the smartphone, its autonomy (2 days, how not to do it) and the amount of memory. - Sound. No comment. This is both in headphones and through external speakers. - Moisture / dustproof protection. - Appearance. I have a silver version, but like a chameleon, it changes its color to purple or turquoise. - Freaky-fast fingerprint scanner. - The penultimate version of android and in the spring they promise an update (although this is more like a rumor) - A cool thing with an answer to a call just by holding the phone to your ear. This is the first time I've met this, I don't know if competitors have something similar, but it's very convenient.

Disadvantages: I will write down a decent amount of software from HTC as a disadvantage. I chopped off a lot of apps and installed an alternative to them. The biggest thorn in this software is the keyboard. I haven't experienced so much pain for a long time. As a minus, I will write down the noises of the main camera, but they are quite controversial because the detailing does not always and periodically just suffer for the sake of the overall quality. I didn't like the front camera, but it will do. I rarely use it. It doesn't matter to me.

Comment: Of all that is on the market, this 2017 flagship is the least controversial (I chose between lg, samsung and huawei), but this is very subjective :) The u11 plus has an excellent screen, a camera (I use several applications, because the post processing is different, and, accordingly, the result is different), sound, appearance. In general, the sensor is also not a bad thing, but after the nexus I got used to a bare shell, I use Google from the pixel. I'm pleased with the purchase. PS On w3bsit3-dns.com, there was a lot of controversy that the PCT version gives out noise in low light. Now it seems far-fetched to me.

Advantages: I wrote the original text of the review on a well-known resource. The device was bought in Citylink on March 16, 2018, version 6/128 GB, color Amazing silver, to date, in no way disappointed me. I will compare with Samsung, the last 2 main devices were СГН3 and СГН5. 1. AUTONOMY! For me, the situation when in normal mode (2-3 hours of screen, 1-2 conversations) the phone has 60-70% of the battery charge by the evening, was previously unscientific fantasy! On СГН5, in order to save money, he turned off the transmission of mob every time. data and switched to 2G, entering a room with Wi-Fi (home or office), it still did not hold more than 3 hours of screen + an hour of talks (and recently, due to the aging of the battery, it died very quickly after the charge became less than 15 %). Now all this is forgotten as a bad dream))) I will not post record screenshots, tk. they are not: I still put the phone on charge every night. But I expect on business trips at least 8 hours of the screen at the maximum (more than 4 hours of the screen was with the remaining battery charge slightly more than 50%). Latest firmware 1.24.401.7. 2. SOUND! Not an audiophile, but I will say that the sound, of course, is better than in the SGN5. The absence of a 3.5 mm jack is not critical for me, tk. already accustomed to using BT-headsets.LDAC support led to the order of Sony WH-1000xM2 headphones, now I'm enjoying) Noise reduction is an important point for me, because very often I listen from my smartphone on business trips (trains, planes). The stereo speakers are powerful, I listen to something cheerful while shaving through them) I threw the wireless speaker. The bundled headphones with the Type-C connector play above average, and also with good noise reduction, I often use it on the street, the effect is like in advertising, when the surrounding world disappears. 3. Photo: again, I am an ordinary user who cares about the quality of pictures in the "point-and-shoot" mode; by this parameter, the photo is not worse than on the SGN5, but night photos in auto mode are not a fountain, until I deeply climbed into the settings, perhaps I will not climb)

Disadvantages: 4. Shell: after Samsung, of course, it is clear that it is not finished in the NTS, suffice it to say that if you go deep into the menu, then in many settings the names of the submenu items are not even fully spelled out, and what is hidden behind these 3 dots, it remains only to guess, well, or to read the instructions), however, of the principal third-party applications, only ES conductor and Neutron player were installed. The dialer and contacts are fine. I liked the implementation of screenshots from the navbar, I thought that I would suffer without a stylus, while it seems normal. By the way, Navbar was removed by default in all applications; in those where he still stayed, it doesn't really bother me. 5. Processor: I don't know what to find fault with. The performance is excellent; by the end of the second year of use, the СГН5 jerked up and slowed down in some situations. Here I noticed that Viber sometimes does not open instantly, like other instant messengers, but in 1-1.5 seconds, but I attribute this to application bugs. Fast charging is not worse than on СГН5, although the battery capacity is larger; The lack of wireless charging is not critical for me, I have never used it on SGN5.

Comment: 6. Screen: IPS completely suits me, although my eyes did not hurt on Samsung either. Yes, auto brightness does not always work well, unlike the SGN5. I have AOD turned on only for raising the device, it also does not always work clearly, but for me this function is not fundamental. 7. Appearance: despite the widespread opinion that the device does not look premium, I will not share it: for me it is very good even in a complete case. I don’t risk using it without a cover because it is extremely slippery (however, this applies to any smartphone with a glass back, the SGN5 was no exception). Ali ordered 3 covers from among those that are official. NTS store sells at 2-3 prices) 8. Feature: I will take Edge Sense to it. Personally, I really like that I can set up the shortcuts for main contacts on the circular pad. On SGN5 it was also possible to display widgets of quick calls / contacts on the desktop, but there it was inconvenient to reach with one hand to the icons located on the other end of the screen. There is no such problem here, I call with one hand. You can also assign some functions to compression in other applications: I use compression to turn pages in readers, it's very convenient. I can also answer the call by squeezing (the answer function by bringing the device to your ear does not always work if you are lying down))) In general, I am very pleased with the device, despite minor (for me) shortcomings, mainly software ones. It is difficult for me to compare it with the current and last year's flagships of other manufacturers, however, in terms of the totality of characteristics (autonomy, camera, sound), it suited me more than those officers. retailers from which I also chose (SGN8, SGS8 +, LGV30 +, Honor V10). A pleasant bonus was the adequate price compared to the Koreans. In short, for those who doubt: I recommend buying.

Advantages: The phone is good for everyone. Fast, good screen, great sound, etc. A particularly interesting feature is edge compression for selfies or photography. All this is described in many reviews.By the way, the camera and sound are amazing.

Disadvantages: One jamb for me is very significant - this is the compression of the side edges to trigger the camera. It is impossible to install the phone in the car holder without mats. One more, Very sensitive microphones - Google assistant constantly thinks that I'm calling him.

Comment: I already use the third phone of this brand and every time I am satisfied. As for me, this phone is the best that they have released at the moment and is much better than Samsung and iPhones

Advantages: Everything is fine

Disadvantages: There was a problem with the screen, when an orange trace remains on a white background. This is probably a screen marriage

Comment: In general, the phone is gorgeous, this moment with the screen upset, I think it will change under warranty ...
