2 Screens, 1 Phone. Meet the HTC U Ultra : HTC’s gorgeous new flagship!

2 Screens, 1 Phone. Meet the HTC U 

HTC just unveiled a brand new flagship Android smartphone, the U Ultra. It’s powered by Android Nougat with HTC’s custom Sense user interface and some artificial intelligence tweaks. It offers a unique new “liquid” glass body and draws inspiration from both Samsung and LG smartphones.








HTC will introduce two models of the U Ultra, one with 64GB of expandable storage and another with 128GB of expandable storage. Both feature 4GB of RAM and many of the same features, but the latter will also ship with a sapphire display in place of the Gorilla Glass 5 version found on the 64GB Ultra model. You’ll also find a 3,000mAh battery under the hood with support for Qualcomm QuickCharge 3.0, which should allow you to juice up pretty quickly.

The camera should perform relatively similarly to the HTC 10. HTC said it didn’t really change much, the 12MP UltraPixel 2 sensor is still in place though it sounds like there have been some software tweaks to improve performance. There’s also a 16MP front-facing camera with an UltraPixel mode that improves lowlight performance.

As for audio, the “BoomSound” stereo speakers aren’t making a comeback here. HTC’s including its USonic headphones that take advantage of USB-C in the box and also work with its “BoomSound Hi-Fi Edition” technology. The U Ultra also supports 3D Audio recording thanks to 4 microphones. Those mics are always listening, too, so you should theoretically be able to pull up commands like “Ok Google” at any time. Don’t worry about too much power consumption, HTC told me these mics only “sip” battery life.

HTC is introducing a new “Sense Companion” Artificial Intelligence engine on the phone. This applies to a variety of applications. For notifications, HTC will try to learn to show you only notifications from apps and people you care about. It’ll also try to predict battery life, among other things. “We know your calendar events and can tell if you’ll make it to the end of the day on your current charge”
