The HTC U12 Plus lets you customize its squeezable sides to launch any app. It has a fast processor, good cameras and is water-resistant
Its "fake" side buttons are tiring to use. Photos required too much editing to make good. Battery life is mediocre for a battery this size. There's no headphone jack
While the HTC U12 Plus is one of the most unique phones you can buy, it lacks the refinement to truly compete against Samsung, LG and OnePlus...
Battery falls short again, Volume buttons are just. wrong, Touch-sensitive sides fail to impress again
While we thoroughly applaud HTC for trying to be innovative with this handset, in a smartphone world that sorely needs differentiation, it doesn't mean that we have to like what's on show. In the same way that we don't need our phones to be able to also c...
Strong performance, Daylong battery life, Strong camera, Great sound
Overly sensitive digital buttons, Edge Sense needs refinement, Sense UI is dull, slow, Loaded with ugly bloatware, Display has poor viewing angles
No. The HTC U12 Plus is a good phone, but we can't recommend it until HTC delivers a software fix for the digital buttons.Updated on July 9: The HTC U12 Plus is available for purchase now...

Good rear camera, Notch haters will like the design, Water resistant
Mediocre battery life, Squeeze features more quirky than useful, No headphone jack
The HTC U12+ was a chance for HTC to tell us what its vision of Android is. What did we get? Pressure sensing quirks that don't necessarily seem much better than what we had before. Add just passable battery life and the HTC U12+ doesn't get close to riv...

Excellent speakers and cameras, zippy performance, comfortable to hold
Edge Sense isn't super intuitive, battery life average, must use HTC's headphones for all audio options
There is plenty to like about the U12+. It costs less than the high-end flagships, so it's worth looking at if the gimmicks on the usual options of Apple and Samsung aren't holding your attention. When it comes to its price rivals such as the LG G7 ThinQ...

It's quite fun to be able to compare an iOS and Android phone so directly, since these devices cost exactly the same amount in the UK. Unsurprisingly, for those who've been paying attention to the smartphone wars, HTC gives more bang for the buck in almos...

Clean and premium 3D glass design, Strong internal hardware suite, Useful Edge Sense 2 controls, Dual LTE SIM card slot, IP68 waterproof rating, Dual-camera secured face unlock
As yet untested camera system, battery, and software
Unsurprisingly, for someone who very much liked the HTC U11+ I got on very well with the HTC U12+ during my brief testing period, with the phone very much delivering a stylish iteration on the outgoing model armed with a more on-trend hardware and feature...
That said, it packs every feature you'd want bar wireless charging and undercuts Samsung prices by over £100. Add to that the innovative four-camera set up, and it could well be the connoisseurs choice for the best smartphone of 2018.But the OnePlus 6 onl...
Though it'll be arriving long after the big hitters of 2018, the U12+'s Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor and top of the line cameras may mean that it's only fashionably late, rather than too late. As many as there already seem to be, there's definitely r...
