Simple and straightforward to use, Good choice of apps in the Google Play Store, Sleek and stylish glossy metallic casing, Front camera has an onscreen countdown timer so you're prepared when the phone captures the photos, there's also a makeup mode that
As much as metallic casing looks stunning it suffers from fingerprint marks, Display suffers from glare in bright light and fingerprint marks, Larger screen size means its a struggle to hold and use onehanded, The smartphone lacks Google Assistant
The HTC U Ultra is ideal if you crave a smartphone with a big screen (also referred to as a 'phablet'). At 5.7in, this screen is ideal for watching movies and TV shows, especially since it can display 4K content too. While it is a little bit too big to co...

Abstract: HTC has struggled to keep up in the past few years, its phones veering from the gimmick-laden Ultra Pixel camera HTC One M8 to the mediocre M9, and settling on the solid but overpriced HTC 10. Now the firm has gone full circle back to gimmicks again, addi...
The HTC U Ultra is, really, the HTC 10 Ultra – a more powerful, phablet version of that flagship phone from 2016, which gives us hope that we're still going to see the HTC 11 later this year.The rest of the power on board is impressive, although we're not...
HTC has confused me with this phone. The HTC 10 fixed the problems of the One M9 but the U Ultra is a Frankenstein device. When a phone gives a better impression powered off than on, you know you're in trouble. It's not a bad phone full stop, but it does...

The HTC U Ultra has a sharp design, crisp display and loud speakers. A secondary display gives quick access to notifications and app shortcuts
The phone's premium price and large size make unsuitable for most people. There's also no headphone jack, it isn't water-resistant and its battery life is poor
The U Ultra is missing too many flagship features to justify its high price...
Secondary screen frees up space, Beautiful glass design
Weak speakers, Dim display, Inaccurate camera
No. At $750, the U Ultra is a difficult sell. The secondary display is a nuisance, and the BoomSound speakers are underwhelming. The camera falls short of what the competition can achieve, as does the screen. While HTC's AI-powered Sense Companion is nice...

High quality design, unique looks, good camera performance, plenty of power, great sound quality and headphones
Ghosting in night mode, secondary display could be used a little better, no 3.5mm headphone jack, software doesn't really suit this size of device, battery life is less than class leading, expensive
The HTC U Ultra sets out its stall in a strange position. It's a big screen phone from HTC that part embodies some of the company's previous traits (it's a Sense experience that's well-built), while introducing a new, unique finish. It's certainly strikin...
So now you know a little more about the U Ultra, it's time to answer the question we outlined at the start: "What do you get for the extra $100?" Well, aside from a more impressive front-facing shooter, higher grade screen protection and the facility to e...
Attractive design, Decent camera, HTC Sense still a great UI
Glass feels a little thin, A lot of repackaged tech, HTC Sense Companion limited
An interesting phablet with a decent slug of power, the HTC U Ultra's design innovations will intrigue, but the all-new 'AI' component feels far too nascent to be called a killer feature...
