Beautiful design, Great performance, Excellent cameras
Frustrating buttons, Below-average battery life, Relatively dim LCD display
The U12+ reaches for a high bar with excellent cameras, powerful performance and beautiful design, but falls short where it matters for many potential buyers with frustrating buttons, underwhelming battery life and a duller-than-average display. The fact...
Camera produces sharp, noise-free images, Narrow design makes for an ergonomic shape, Attractive, distinctive color options
The solid-state buttons are a disaster, Still no headphone jack, and now there's no adapter either, With glass on both sides, slippery to handle, Software is full of little and big annoyances

Abstract: HTC's 2018 flagship, the U12+, tosses a solid set of features into an attractive, if large, piece of hardware. It also offers a few unique functions that make it stand out from the crowd of super slabs. This unlocked device runs well on AT&T, T-Mobile, an...
Outstanding design with cool translucent back glass, Excellent audio performance and included USonic earbuds, High quality dual rear cameras, High level water & dust resistance, Unique and useful Edge Sense functionality
Below average battery life, Annoying haptic side buttons, Priced too high
Takes good photos, 2X camera is nice having, Edge Sense adds useful quickfunction mapping, Sounds great – with earbuds and without, Display shows crisp detail and has good color reproduction, Topnotch internals and toptier performance

Abstract: At the very least, HTC won't be accused of jumping on any bandwagons when it comes to the design of its 2018 flagship smartphone. Confusing called the HTC U12+ (there is no U12), the newest phone from HTC doesn't really stand out. Although HTC has upped t...

Effective stabilization, Good tracking and accurate autofocus, Pleasant white balance and vivid color, Good exposure and dynamic range, Generally low levels of noise
White balance instabilities indoors, Loss of detail in low light, Overexposed highlights in HDR scenes
With improving technologies pushing the possibilities of smartphone photography forward, and mid-range devices offering very capable results, there's pressure on manufacturers to keep their flagship devices at the top. With a new flagship in the shape of...
