HTC U Ultra Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Deepak Dhingra]()
Verdict
It’s clear that the HTC U Ultra has a lot going for it - it looks nice, performs smoothly, offers good battery life, and is loaded up with enough features to distinguish itself from the herd. The phone was launched at a steep cost of Rs 59,990, but thankfully, the sticker price has now been reduced to a slightly more digestible Rs 52,990. Notwithstanding that significant price drop though, it still needs to beat some serious competition in the form of the LG V20 (review) and older flagships like the Google Pixel XL (review) and Samsung Galaxy S7 edge (review) to be able to come across as a w...

What works

Right off the bat, the U Ultra impresses with its looks. As we said earlier… images don’t really do it justice, you just have to check it out for yourself to see what we mean. The glossy rear is a big fingerprint magnet for sure, which is where the included transparent case comes in handy. If you don’t use the case, you might just find yourself obsessively wiping the smudges quite often.

What doesn’t work

Sexy looks notwithstanding, the U Ultra’s glass design does have a few other drawbacks apart from the fact that it’s a fingerprint magnet. For one, it’s a pretty large device, even for one with a 5.7-inch display. Of course, the secondary display is the one to blame for that. The phone is slippery too, and we don’t think its glass body will be able to withstand too many hard drops without showing any evidence of the same. Another gripe we have regarding the design is that the home button and navigation keys are placed too close to the bottom, making it even harder to use the phone with one hand.
