Thanks to a popular benchmarking app AnTuTu, the specifications for the upcoming U11 smartphone from HTC has been revealed. As people had already expected, HTC had to bring out a worthy successor to their present HTC 10 flagship, and the HTC U was a flop.
The HTC U 11 is supposedly the next flagship device from the Taiwanese manufacturer for 2017. The Benchmarks reveal that the new smartphone will be equipped with the latest Snapdragon 835 flagship chipset from Qualcomm. The report from GSMArena also has partially approved the side-mounted pressure sensors that authenticate a user's fingerprint.
Alongside the new type of sensors on the smartphone, the HTC U 11 has also been IP57 certified according to the report which is a bit on the downside since the smartphone is undoubtedly the next premium device from HTC. The new smartphone will also be equipped with Qualcomm's QuickCharge 3.0 technology alongside the manufacturer's proprietary HTC BoomSound audio technology.
Meanwhile, another report from 9To5Google also mentions about the battery capacity of the upcoming HTC U 11 smartphone. A 3000mAh battery will be powering a 5.5-inch Quad HD screen with HTC Sense UI interface on top of the latest Android Nougat v7.1.1 operating system from Google.
The HTC U 11 smartphone will have two cameras. The rear camera will have a resolution of 16MP capable of shooting pictures in low lighting conditions thanks to a f/2.0 aperture setting with the reports claiming an 'UltraSpeed' autofocus for the camera. Meanwhile, the front-facing 12MP camera is also equipped with an ultra-wide angle lens with aperture settings going as low as f/1.7. The cameras from the manufacturer will be based on 'UltraPixel' technology.
The storage capacities on the new HTC U 11 smartphone will come out in two variants, one with a 64GB of storage onboard while a higher-end variant will be offered in 128GB storage capacities. The report also mentions that the storage can be expanded with the help of a microSD card.
