Congratulations, OP! I too have the Honor 8 and will grab a U11 at some point - maybe after Christmas. Glad you are liking it! What made you go with the red? It's truly a gorgeous colour!
Morty2264. The red, it's a really nice colour. I thought that black, blue and silver though nice too seemed to be the norm. Where else do you find a red phone apart from Apple well that's apple.
I've received a clear cover from HTC that's comes as part of the package. I've recently ordered a clearer softer cover that protects all around the phone which is needed.
It's an awesome sauce phone so far. The honor 8 is a great phone and I think the 9 will be too if ever released and configured for the NA market.
The HTC screen size is perfect and the phone is actually quite.compact. Only about half and inch taller than the Honor 8.
If you treat yourself to a Xmas present get this HTC. You won't be disappointed Morty2264
