HTC packs some other premium features into the model, including an 18:9 ratio Full HD+ 6" Super LCD 3 screen and a "flagship camera" on the rear, but other than the front-facing camera, the handset is more-or-less the same as the regular HTC U11.
The front-facing camera is comprised of dual 5MP BSI sensors behind F2.2 aperture lenses, which support Full HD 1080p video capture in addition to stills. The selfie cameras produce "studio-quality portraits," claims HTC, with Bokeh Mode being the most notable feature. In that mode, selfie backgrounds are blurred in real time, though users also have the option of adjusting it manually after the fact.
The model's front camera also supports Screen Flash, HDR Boost, Voice Selfie, Auto "Beautification," Auto Selfie, and Selfie Panorama. The rear camera, meanwhile, features a 12MP HTC UltraPixel 3 with 1.4μm pixel, BSI sensor, OIS, F1.7 aperture, an LED flash, and UltraSpeed Autofocus. HTC has included a "Pro Mode" with manual control for its rear camera, including 32-second long exposures, Raw support, and manual control.
Cameras aside, the HTC U11 Eyes has a high-capacity 3930mAh battery that supports up to 28.8 hours of talk time (depending on the network) as well as Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor, IP67 water- and dust-resistance, Edge Sense squeezing support, HTC USonic audio tech, active noise cancellation, and Face Unlock.
Availability outside of China and pricing isn't clear. Engadget reports that its "local sources" put the price potentially at HK$3,200, which is equivalent to about $410 USD and 334 EUR.
We know it's shiny, but don't let its looks distract you. After a seriously underwhelming showing with the U Ultra, HTC refined its smartphone formula and pushed out the U11, a gimmick-laden flagship that's actually worth using. The pressure-sensitive Edge Sense turns the sides of the phone into a one big convenience key, which is handy but unimaginative. There are three virtual assistants to choose from, though most people will only ever use one. And that beautiful glass finish? Well, just be very careful with it. Despite all that, the U11 delivers true flagship-level performance, and a camera experience that's excellent, period, not just excellent for HTC. The build quality is generally fantastic too, and HTC has finally made a handsome body that's also water-resistant. While this might sound like a mixed bag, the U11's strengths definitely outweigh its flaws. See full specs here http://list-phones.com/catalogue/HTC-U11-EYEs
