A SMARTPHONE WITH
SMART ADVICE
GET THIS: HTC U Ultra.
READY FOR: A personalised, companion smartphone that’ll help you out no matter
what you’re planning for the week. The latest HTC U Ultra has a plethora of cool
features up its sleeves, including a second 51mm screen on top of the main one. This
way, you can have convenient access to the most important information such as
your top contacts and notifications. You can also put app shortcuts for even easier
accessibility. The cameras are another wow factor: Its 12-megapixel main camera is
well equipped with autofocus, phase detection and more, but its selfie camera is 16
megapixels and provides the UltraPixel mode that makes the shot four times more
sensitive to light – perfect for those candlelit dinners and nightclubs.
THE BEST PART: We didn’t call this phone a “personalised companion” for nothing
- the all-new HTC Sense Companion feature is what makes all HTC U phones stand
out. Learning from you and evolving as you go along your daily routine, the HTC
Sense Companion gives you personalised advice, such as wearing warmer clothing
if rain is in the forecast and reminding you to take your power bank with you on full-
day outings.
