Speaking of HTC, my first impression is G1, which is the first Android phone, and also the first Android phone I have contacted. After several generations of ups and downs, the former Android overlord has brought us the strongest flagship HTC U11 this year. Taking photos on the DxOMark website has scored an unprecedented 90 points, surpassing Samsung Apple and becoming the best camera phone now.

Speaking of which, I didn't expect much from HTC U11 before it was released, but after it was released, it gave me the feeling of returning as a king. There is no high screen proportion, but it is more beautiful than the high screen proportion of mobile phones. The top configuration and excellent photography, both inside and outside. thank Love to play computer games Now let's talk about the attraction of HTC's new flagship.

Before we really talk about HTC U11, let's take a look at its configuration: Snapdragon 835 processor, HTC Sense UI customized based on Android 7.1, 4GB running memory (6GB optional), 64GB starting storage capacity, all of which are UFS 2.1. 5.5 inch 2K HD screen, 3000mAh battery support QC3.0 charging technology, HTC Boomsoun stereo speakers, IP67 waterproof. The 16 million front camera that can only be seen on the main selfie mobile phone, the 12 million rear camera that won the highest 90 points of DxOMark, the f/1.7 large aperture, OIS optical anti shake; There is also an edge sense function with full playability. This is the top hardware configuration at present, namely HTC U11.

On the HTC U11, you can't see the amazing full screen this year, or even the proportion of high screen, but The appearance gives people no less surprise. The black panel of 3D curved glass on the front gives me the first impression of roundness. Compared with the general 2.5D curved glass, it has more texture and a better feel. The 8-curved 3D water ripple glass body on the back adopts the light splitting and color mixing technology. Different angles have different visual experiences, making each angle different. Now that technology is based on changing "color", HTC U11 can be said to play the ultimate visual aesthetics. Different from the usual reflection, the back glass of HTC U11 is more "flirtatious". As a post-90s generation, I like this kind of "flirtatious".

This one in my hand is Meditation Black. In addition, there are Yuanwang Blue, Brilliant Moon Silver, Snow White and Red. Speaking of color, I thought of a small episode. I sent my friend a picture of the red version of HTC U11, but he said it was orange, and I said it was red, so I argued about it endlessly. The black on the hand is also black. It is black without obvious light, but if there is light, it is dark green.

The HTC U11 is equipped with a 5.5 inch 2K screen with a pixel density of 534ppi. Needless to say, the overall quality of the screen is what I care about. The use of Corning's fifth generation gorilla 3D curved glass can effectively avoid problems such as edge image clipping and color distortion. From the perspective of actual experience, I think this Super LCD 5 screen is of the top level. It is colorful, reduces screen glare, looks more transparent, has good visibility in the sun, and has the advantage of low power consumption, which is good news for 3000mAh batteries.

This photo was taken at 4pm. In summer, the night came late. At 4pm, the sun was hot. It can be seen that the HTC U11 can still be seen clearly in strong light, and there is no pressure to use it in the sun. As a flagship, the screen quality of HTC U11 was expected, and I would not hesitate to say that this is the best mobile phone screen I have ever used.

When I really hold HTC U11 in my hand, I can only think of one word: warm as jade. The 153.9mmx75.9mmx7.9mm fuselage is not thin, and the 169g weight is 5.5 inches in size, but the feel of the HTC U11 will make you ignore these. The unique three-axis symmetry effect, the arc butt joint of the frame and the glass is just right, whether it is held at the front or at the back, you can feel the comfortable handle brought by the details processing. The back and good feel of "flirtatious" is a surprise to me from the appearance. The fifth generation of Kangning gorillas have improved their resistance to falls. I decided to run naked to live up to the "flirtatious" appearance.

In HTC U11, you can see the changes made to cater to the market. For example, the 16 megapixel UltraPixel high light sensitive large pixel front camera is obviously designed to cater to the current self timer users. F/2.0 aperture, 1080P high-definition video recording, with high-speed HDR and noise reduction functions; It supports auto focusing, panoramic self taking, automatic beauty and other functions, and has rich self taking modes. The hidden breathing lamp is on the left side of the earpiece, and the distance sensor is on the right side.

The bottom of the HTC U11 is designed to not press the Home key+touch key. The Home key supports fingerprint identification and can be unlocked quickly; Tap to return to the home page. When the screen is lit, long press to call up the DuerOS. The touch keys on the left and right sides are used to gently touch back to the previous layer and call out the multitasking background. There is backlight, which can be set to be always on and use to light up. As an obsessive-compulsive disorder, the design of the touch key is not centered, which makes me feel uncomfortable. I have always wondered why this design was made. Some people said that it was a compromise for the dual stereo speakers, while others said that it was because of the screen layout cable. No matter what kind of cable, it was a fact that the beauty was discounted. However, one thing is certain that the HTC Boomsoun stereo speakers are really super beautiful.

The physical keys are concentrated on the right side of the fuselage, and the upper and lower keys are the volume key and the power key. The keys are thin and long. In order to distinguish the two keys, the power key has a concave convex texture. In fact, it can also be distinguished from the touch of the keys. The volume key is relatively fragile when pressed, and the power key is relatively soft.

The Type-C interface supporting QC3.0 fast charging is centered, and the right side is a long speaker. The 3.5mm audio interface is canceled, and a USonic smart sonar headset will be presented for mass production and sales. It has active noise reduction, and can adjust the audio output according to your cochlear structure, so as to optimize the sound exclusively for you. After testing, the HTC U11 is incompatible with some non original adapters. I now use Bluetooth headsets.

The 12 million UltraPixel main camera on the back of the HTC U11 is the biggest advantage. The f/1.7 aperture supports the full pixel autofocus of UltraSpeed; one point four μ The m-pixel size can obtain more light input for night shots. It supports optical anti shake and high-speed HDR, which makes the photos clearer and smoother, and reduces noise to retain more details.

As for whether DxOMark's high score of 90 points is really worthy of the name, let's talk about it with a proof sheet. The following pictures are not in the late stage, and only suitable compression and tailoring are carried out.

First of all, when there is sufficient sunlight in the daytime, the whole picture is bright, the color is accurate and in place, the sense of hierarchy in the sky is obvious, and the dark details are excellent. The painting is not obvious after magnification. Thanks to the UltraSpeed full pixel auto focus, there is no delay from focusing to shooting. Accustomed to the rich colors of Huawei P10, I think HTC U11 is a bit light, but it is closer to the environment at that time.

On cloudy days, the picture brightness is still bright. The light tubes in the house can be clearly seen, and the road surface is slightly yellow.

How fast is the imaging speed of the HTC U11? This picture is the best proof that there is no blurred vehicle in the picture.

It is very natural for the background to be blurred in macro photography, and the process of enlarging the edge of flowers is also layered obviously.

Portrait samples were taken in the evening and afternoon respectively.

One day, on a whim, I went to climb the mountain all night. I wanted to wait for sunrise, but the weather was bad. At five o'clock in the morning, dark clouds were gathering. The lights of the city gradually went out, and a bright light from the sunrise penetrated the dark clouds. The noise is well controlled. You can see many details of the flowers and plants nearby.

If I said this photo was taken at 7:30 p.m., would you believe it? In my opinion, the photo title of "Night Vision" is about to change, and HTC U11 is absolutely worthy. The F/1.7 aperture has a full amount of light input, which significantly improves the image quality. The details are more than all the phones I have used in the past, including the iPhone 7. After this period of photographic experience, the HTC U11 has the best photographic experience for second speed focusing and instant imaging. The sample is the best proof of the effect. HTC U11 has the highest score of 90 points in DxOMark.

The Sense UI on the HTC U11 is customized based on Android 7.1. Compared with most in-depth customization in China, Sense U is simple. Make minor changes on the basis of preserving the native Android features as a whole. There is no unified icon style, and there is no Huli fancy. I am a simple person. Although most of them are using domestic deeply customized systems, they are also easy to use when returning to native Android. In view of the lack of humanization of native Android, we will focus on highlights next.

The photo editing tool provided with HTC U11 is really easy to use and fun to play with. In addition to basic trimming adjustment and adding filters, it also supports image decoration, that is, adding photo frames and drawings. In beautification, it can beautify the skin, adjust the light, contour the face, enhance the eyes, brighten the eyes, degrease, etc. There are many modes in special effects, including pattern addition, graphic effect, phantom kaleidoscope, double exposure, magic fairyland, etc. For example, the picture in the middle is the phantom kaleidoscope, and the picture in the middle is the magic fairyland.

Zoe video editing tool can be used for simple video editing, which is mainly composed of multiple pictures. There are fewer freely definable parts. There are more than 10 themes available, including zero special effects, surfing, nostalgic style, black and white, desert, etc; Music can be added by yourself.

The above is a short video I made with Zoe video editing tool.

On HTC U11, we see a new interaction mode - Edge Sense. The lower half of the frame is equipped with a pressure sensor in the holding area. The user only needs to hold the phone with one hand to open the defined function. You can adjust the holding pressure at any time. Wearing the phone case will not affect the use of Edge Sense. The strength is a little larger than that tested before. The customized press holding action can start the camera/record video, or directly start the mini assistant, screenshots, etc.

The usual way to take a picture is to pick up the phone from your pocket, unlock it - click the camera application - take a picture, and you are likely to miss the wonderful moment at this time. Edge Sense gives it a faster operation. When you take out your phone from your pocket, you gently grip it to enter the camera interface, and then directly grasp it to capture the image you want to record.

Compared with taking photos, I prefer to use Edge Sense for screenshots. I use Edge Sense frequently in daily life. It used to take screenshots with both hands, but now it can be taken with one hand. After several days of use, I gradually like the Edge Sense function.

In addition to its own HTC sense Companion, HTC also has access to Baidu's DuerOS conversational AI operating system, enabling cold machine equipment to have the ability to interact with users. The localization of Chinese language recognition hopes to provide users with the best voice assistant service through the Edge Sense of HTC U11. As long as you gently grasp and say your problem, the mini assistant can help you solve it.

There are two ways to wake up the mini assistant: one is to gently hold it through the Edge Sense function, and the other is to long press the Home key. Users can directly ask life questions, schedule reminders and life services.

Before going out, I always check the weather of the next day so as to be prepared. I ask Xiaodu's assistant, who will tell you the weather of the next day in Guangzhou by voice broadcast, so that you can prepare for your trip in advance. Small assistants have continuous conversations, which is similar to most voice assistants, but one thing is that ordinary voice assistants do not have, that is, learning. It will form a separate continuous conversation in a certain region according to the user's previous query.

The day after tomorrow, my classmates took their graduation photos. I still haven't chosen the gift I want to send. I have an appointment with a friend to go shopping tomorrow to see the necklace. But I am forgetful. I often forget what to prepare for tomorrow. At this time, the small assistant is very important. Remind me to go out at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Voice set up a reminder, which is convenient and fast.

For example, driving to unfamiliar places requires the use of navigation maps. Usually, it is dangerous to operate while driving. The best way is to park the car in a safe place and choose a route before starting. If you use the HTC U11, the small assistant can input voice to determine the best route for you, which saves a lot of unnecessary operations, time and effort.

I prefer watching movies, so I can ask my assistant to check and recommend good movies.

What I didn't expect was that Xiaodu's assistant would also play catch-up with idioms. He always seconds me when he learns more about gambling. Any idiom will block me.

In order to give you a more intuitive understanding of DuerOS conversational AI operating system, I took a short video.

At first, I was a little worried about the HTC U11's endurance. The 2K screen has a battery of only 300mAh, and the parameters are average. Surprisingly, the HTC U11 has a surprisingly good battery life, which makes me wonder whether it is a 2K screen machine. You should know that the battery life of three mobile phones with 2K screens has collapsed. The HTC U11 has a better battery life than my Huawei P10, which is an excellent result for the 2K screen.

  Different from the past, the HT U11 has attracted much attention this time. Its high appearance, round and comfortable feel, and the 8-curved 3D water glass body design process on the back make people stand out. In terms of hardware, it is also a top flagship standard. Snapdragon 835 processor, 2K screen, UFS 2.1 storage media, IP67 waterproof, HTC Boomsoun stereo speakers, the best 12 million camera, and excellent photography. Edge Sense interaction works well with small assistants, and human-computer interaction is good. After this period of time, all aspects of performance are balanced and excellent. If you are a noodle, I think you have no reason to refuse HTC U11; If you need to consider the high-end flagship, it is also one of the best choices, because the price of 4599 yuan is compared with the same flagship, and the HTC U11 is the most worth buying.
