No headphone jack but there's an adapter included as standard. Hardware wise it looks good, but it is a shame the design is quite uninspiring.Will see what it's like in the flesh before deciding .
HTC U11
- Thread starter Kerplunk
- Start date
Still no return for the front facing speakers 
I'm feeling hard up to replace my m7 though, it's showing it's age and can only slow charge and the usb charging port doesn't grip anymore so it's a struggle trying to keep the cable in for the few hours it takes to charge.

Honestly mate, this is the best time to jump on a Samsung flagship if you ask me. Nothing will appeal to me for a while I doubt, especially from HTC and I've owned the M7 through M10.
Well ive watched some of the release videos and I am not really drawn to it at all, ive owned a HTC since the HTC Magic, and I am thinking about abanding ship, and going for a Samsung Galaxy S8+ ....
Well HTC U11 just became a phone with the highest rated camera on DXO Mark.
Having owned the M7 I'm somewhat mildly intrigued by this phone now.
EDIT: Also been has a feature where you can squeeze the phone to take a photo.

Still liking my 10, be interested in looking at the U11 when it comes out

Battery life is my main concern here. I don't get this fixation that 3000mAh is enough for a 5.5 inch phone - so many do it. Especially when you're pushing that many pixels on an LCD. Just go 1080p and give me better battery life!

Should be ok, I get through a heavy day on my htc 10 with plenty left (obviously not sitting playing games or music all day) and the 835 is supposed to be a lot more efficient

On my S7 Edge, which has one of the highest endurance ratings for a flagship phone, it just lasts me through the day :/ I have to charge my spare nexus 6p twice a day (morning and around 3 oclock) for it to last

My s7 edge was shocking for battery, as was my s6 edge which was absolutely appalling, my htc 10 I can easily get through a normal day and get home with about 40%, obviously it all depends on what you with a phone but its far better than my s7 and s6, I sent my s8+ back within days of getting it so cant compare
Available for around £585 directly from HTC if sign up to one of their newsletters and get 10% off, be interesting what the prices are like for this on contracts. Squeeze function would come in handy for things other than photo taking as appears to be fully customisable.
Only annoying thing is removal of 3.5mm jack, rely on USB-C for that so iPhone esque in that respect.

That's so strange! What's a standard day for you on your phone? I'm mostly web browsing, music listening and YouTube watching.

Bit of web browsing, lots of emails and take a few photos, the s7 was odd, some days It would be fine other days appalling without a huge difference in use, the s6 edge was just terrible full stop, maybe it was faulty, but it wouldn't last a day even with the lightest of use
Very close to doing the same!
£250 upfront and 27.99 a month for 5GB data and unlim mins and texts. With the £50 cashback it works out to £25.xx a month, it's something like £871 over 2 years. There's also £50 cashback on topcashback. I couldn't find a sim only plan as good if buying the phone sim free to better this with EE as the carrier.
