March 2013 doesn't seem like a long time ago. That's when the first HTC One launched, with its gorgeous metal body and oversized (for the time) 4.7-inch screen. Unfortunately, it was overshadowed by its competition and just didn't find as many buyers as it could have. Every year since then, we've had a new model with upgraded features but the same general identity - and the same fate.

HTC U Ultra Summary

HTC's new U Ultra smartphone has a stunning curved glass back, infused with colours in multiple layers for a deep, rich, eye-catching effect. However, this phone is bulky and extremely slippery. The size is due to it having a 5.7-inch QHD primary screen plus a secondary screen above it, which doesn't serve much purpose. Its light, with a 3000mAh battery that provides just about average runtime. Performance is good and the camera is excellent. You get Android 7.0 but the promised Sense Companion UI assistant is half-baked.
