    What Keyboard is best?

    I use Swiftkey and I like it a lot. Sometimes I use Gboard, but I find its suggestions not that great. My U11+ has also Touchpal, which I also find good, but not as good as Swiftkey.

    This is an amazing phone

    I live in Germany and got the U11+ too. I agree with almost everything posted here. The display is actually very good and also under direct sunlight readable with no problems. On Wifi I get up to 9 hours SOT!! On LTE though I get a maximum of 5 hours, which is not bad, but could be better...

    U Ultra case.

    I have two cases for the U Ultra and depending on the situation I use both. The first one is a soft and is much better than the included hard case: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B06W2KBJNH/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1&tag=techracom00-21&ascsubtag=UUacUvbUpU5804569 and the...

    Color temperature?

    How have you configured the color temperature setting? I find the default setting to be too warm and I have set mine to two steps on the right, towards cold. Please share your setting here. Thanks

    My Review on the HTC U Ultra

    I meant USB-C earphones and not speakers. I think that the Ultra is a bit louder but I would say that both devices deliver a very good audio experience. Sense Companion is HTC's AI, like Google Assistant, but it works by making suggestion according to your lifestyle (apparently). I am not...

    My Review on the HTC U Ultra

    I got the Ultra yesterday and I am still in the honeymoon phase with it, but here are my first thoughts: What I like: The design is amazing. I have the black version and it is absolutely stunning. Fingerprints are not an issue and the device feels great in the hand. Much better than the HTC...

    Everyone still loving their 10?

    The last week I used my HTC 10 as my only computer. My Surface Book died and had to go back to MS. In this week I was amazed to see how great the HTC 10 is. It had no issues whatsoever with all the tasks I threw at it. This is the best phone I have ever had.

    HTC Boost+ app yay or nay?

    I have also disabled it. I trust Android for memory management and I never have any issues with my phone. I get 4 to 4,5 SOT when on WiFi. When I am on the road I get 2-3 hours SOT, but this is mainly me moving around all time and connecting to different 4G cells. Performance is also very good...

    Anybody check out the Pixel and consider switching? Update: Verizon BF sale pricing

    Re: Anybody check out the Pixel and consider switching? I held the Pixel and the Pixel XL yesterday at a local T-Mobile store. Both devices are very nice on the hand, but they really look like an iPhone. I especially liked the Pixel. I didn't like its screen though and when I compared it to my...

    Just my opinion on the HTC 10, FWIW

    I cannot say, but with normal mp3s the quality is very good, better than all of the phones I ever had. I am not an audiophile but I can hear the difference.

    I have also never won a contest. Maybe my luck will change some day :)

    Are the Pixel speakers likely to be louder than the speakers on the Nexus 6P or HTC M8/M9?

    This is where you get it wrong. It is not about the specs, it never has been. It is the whole package that counts. The HTC 10 is very fast, has zero lag, a great UI, great audio, a very good camera (seems to me very odd that the press is avoiding to say who the leader in dxomark before was) a...

    Can you safely use a QC 2.0 charger with the HTC 10?

    I am pretty sure that it would be ok to use the QC 2.0 charger.
