  1. +++ Introduction
  2. <p>In this industry, trends tend to be the determining factor for smartphone companies who aren't sure which direction to take. Of course, in this case, the trend we're referring to in the controversial notch that Apple has blessed the smartphone industry with. Not HTC though, although it hasn't brought a notched display onto its flagship this year, it has followed a couple of other trends in the past couple of years.</p>

  5.  
  6. <p>All trends aside, the HTC has introduced the U12+. It offers the "Plus" in its name even though there won't be a non-Plus model. This is because HTC wants its customers to know that it actually is a large phone. It's about as large as the Galaxy S9+, but HTC's Liquid Surface looks much nicer by comparison.</p>

  9.  
  10. <p>We're looking at a great feature set for the U12+: a high-performing dual camera system, dual cameras in the front (a first for any HTC flagship coming to the States), Edge Sense 2.0, and a new LCD 6 display which supports HDR 10. Other features like the noise-cancelling USonic earbuds have made a return in the same state as last year.</p>

  25.  
  26. </ul>
  27.  
  28. <p>The U11's camera was pretty killer, and we expect that the U12+ will be even better. Of course, that second camera brings 2X zoom, a proper portrait mode. Also new to HTC's flagship is 60 fps video at 4K resolution. There is no super slo-mo like the other guys, but there is 240fps slow motion at 1080p resolution.</p>

  31.  
  32. <p>In terms of performance, the U12+ brings Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 845 along with 6GB of RAM and at least 64GB of expandable storage. In terms of a battery, there's a 3,500 mAh one, which is a step up from the U11, but a step down from the U11+.</p>
  33.  
  34. <p>Of course, HTC how has its Edge Sense 2.0 which lets you "squeeze" out more functionality, so to speak. Strangely, HTC has also made its physical keys digital a-la iPhone 8 Home button. We're not totally sold on these just yet, but we'll let you know how we really feel about them by the end of this review.</p>
  35.  
  36. <p>Let's take a look at what's inside the box.</p>
  37.  
  38. <h3>HTC U12+ unboxing</h3>
  39.  
  40.  
  41. <p>The U12+ comes in a flat box with rounded edges and corners. Our Translucent Blue model came in a matte white box with shiny embossed print to write out the phone's name. The back of the box has some of the phone's specifications like internal storage capacity, color, and model information.</p>
  42.  
  43. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_015.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  44.  
  45. <p>The retail packaging of the U12+ opens to the handset sitting atop the cardboard insert. Under this insert are the included accessories with the U12: a clear glossy plastic case, a cleaning cloth, SIM tool, Quick Charge 3.0 adapter, USB cable, and USonic earbuds. If you're in the United States, you won't be getting a 3.5mm headphone jack to USB-C adapter.</p>
  46.  
  47. <p>Next up, we'll be taking a closer look at the hardware. We're going to check out the U12's Liquid Glass and a closer look at the digital buttons.</p>
  48.  
  49. +++ Design and hardware
  50.  
  51.  
  52.  
  53. <h3>Design & hardware</h3>
  54.  
  55.  
  56. <p>This is the second year since HTC shook up its design style from all-metal to its Liquid Surface glass. The glass comes in three versions: Ceramic Black (not actually ceramic), Translucent Blue (actually translucent), and Flame Red. These colors are a bit more conservative than the bolder Sapphire Blue and Amazing Silver from the U11.</p>
  57.  
  58. <p>Many argued that the U11 had a very fragile design compared to the HTC 10's rock-solid metal chassis, and they are not wrong. The HTC U12+ brings some design changes to improve the structural integrity of the phone. There's a hard lip in the chassis and you can see this behind the lip of the display glass. The shape of the rear glass is also flatter and doesn't curve as much.</p>
  59.  
  60. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_004.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  61.  
  62. <p>The U12+ has new pressure sensitive buttons that are more like nubs in the chassis. The positives with this new kind of key are: improved water-proofing and better structural integrity. Depending on how you look at it. Actually using these keys might be a bother to some. We'll go into more detail in the UI section.</p>
  63.  
  64. <p>This device feels like a taller and boxier version of the U11. The taller display bumped the capacitive buttons out and have been replaced with on-screen navigation controls while the fingerprint scanner has moved to the back. The camera is now flush with the rear glass and the camera comes with a laser sensor to assist with autofocus.</p>
  65.  
  66. <p>Like the U11, the U12+ has pressure sensors embedded into the phone's frame. In addition to pressure sensitivity, the frame can also detect which points of the frame are in contact with your fingers as part of Edge Sense 2.0. Let's take a closer look at the rest of the hardware.</p>
  67.  
  68. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_005.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  69.  
  70. <p>Starting with the front, we've got a tall 6-inch Super LCD display. The screen's corners are not curved like many other manufacturers have done but we aren't complaining. The upper and lower bezels are certainly a bit larger than the Galaxy S9's and this is to make enough room for the BoomSound speakers.</p>
  71.  
  72. <p class="image-row clearfix">
  73. <a onclick='javascript:ShowImg2("reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/phone/-1200x900mw1/gsmarena_011.jpg"); return false' href="#"><img src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/phone/-x120/gsmarena_011.jpg" height="" alt="HTC U12+ in-hand - HTC U12 Plus Review review"></a>
  74. <br><font><strong>HTC U12+ in-hand</strong></font></p>
  75.  
  76. <p>Above the display is the absence of a notch in the display, and we're definitely thankful for this. To the right of the in-call receiver is a mic hole the usual light and proximity sensors, as well as a notification LED behind the glass. Dual 8MP selfie cameras take up the space to the left of the receiver. As mentioned earlier, there's a lip around the entire edge of the glass that joins it to the aluminum frame.</p>
  77.  
  78. <p class="image-row clearfix">

  82. <br><font><strong>Front (display) &bull; Forehead &bull; Corner</strong></font></p>
  83.  
  84. <p>There are no buttons on the left of the device - here is where the SIM/microSD card tray lives. Dual SIM models would have a hybrid slot for either a second SIM card or a microSD card. To the right are the phone's only buttons: power, volume -, and volume +.</p>
  85.  
  86. <p>The power key has a nice texture for telling it apart from the volume keys, however, these aren't actually buttons, they are pressure-sensitive nubs that simulate buttons and offer haptic feedback. The same pressure sensors used for Edge Sense 2.0 are used to detect which "key" is being applied with pressure. More about these keys in the UI section.</p>

  92.  
  93. <p>There's a mic at the top, and another on the bottom. Down here is also the BoomSound speaker port, and a USB-C port. There is no headphone jack, so it is either an adapter or the included noise-cancelling USonic Earbuds.</p>
  94.  
  95. <p class="image-row clearfix">

  99.  
  100. <p>The actual frame looks nice on our Translucent Blue model, which has got a black matte finish. Otherwise, this is the only color option that has see-through glass. HTC first did this with the U11+ and we're happy to see something like this. It lets us peer inside and appreciate some of the inner workings of these devices that we entrust our entire digital lives with.</p>
  101.  
  102. <p>It doesn't quite take us back to the time in the 90s when transparent housings were all the rage, but it does put a new, more subdued twist on the trend.</p>
  103.  
  104. <p class="image-row clearfix">

  107. <br><font><strong>Aluminum frame &bull; translucent back</strong></font></p>
  108.  
  109. <p>Centering the back of the phone is the HTC logo, just above the printed stripes that fade the transparent part of the glass to the non-translucence. HTC didn't make this area translucent because it figured that the battery wasn't all that interesting to look at.</p>
  110.  
  111. <p class="image-row clearfix">
  112. <a onclick='javascript:ShowImg2("reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/phone/-1200x900mw1/gsmarena_010.jpg"); return false' href="#"><img src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/phone/-x120/gsmarena_010.jpg" height="" alt="Camera and fingerprint cluster - HTC U12 Plus Review review"></a>
  113. <br><font><strong>Camera and fingerprint cluster</strong></font></p>
  114.  
  115. <p>Above the rear-mounted fingerprint scanner is a dual LED flash and HTC's new dual cameras. This setup reminds us of the LG V30's (or V30+, or V30S, or V35) a little bit in the arrangement and position of the cameras and fingerprint scanner.</p>
  116.  
  117. <p>The U12+ has dual autofocus systems as well, the lasers are here to the left of the camera and another mic right next to the camera. The camera ring is pretty much flush with the rear glass, so no camera hump here.</p>
  118.  
  119. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_006.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  120.  
  121. <p>Overall, a handsome looking device from HTC. Our only concerns lie in durability, particularly if the phone was to be dropped on a corner - since the front glass has that lip that goes around the entire front edge of the display.</p>
  122.  
  123. <p>This glass might be more likely to become damaged than the rear. Thankfully, HTC offers a glossy plastic clear case in the box that you can use until you can get a proper case - which we highly recommend you invest in.</p>

  133. <br><font><strong>The U12+ has a 6-inch Super LCD 6 display with QHD+ resolution. This is a "glass sandwich" smartphone protected by Gorilla Glass 3 on both the front and rear.

Gorilla Glass 3 has the correct balance between shatter resistance and flexibility that is suitable for the squeezable smartphone that HTC has designed. </strong></font>

  136.  
  137. <p>Unlike a bunch of other smartphone makers, the HTC U12+'s tall display doesn't have rounded corners around the display - they are the standard 90 degree corners. This all comes down to preference, but some believe that rounded corners rob you of pixels.</p>
  138.  
  139. <p>In our display testing, we found the HTC U12+'s max brightness to be lower than the U11's (16:9) Super LCD 5 display. The max brightness reached 366.1 nits, though, the contrast (1,830) was higher than the U11's. In direct sunlight, this display offers a slight brightness boost of just over 20 nits, which likely won't impress anyone.</p>

  201. <p>The minimum display brightness was pretty good. The display was able to dim down to 2.4 nits for great night-time visibility or having Smart Display active on your night stand without being too distracting to sleep near.</p>
  202.  
  203. <p>Sunlight legibility is also rather poor. We often struggled to see the U12+'s display in direct sunlight. Overall, quite a disappointing showing, definitely one falling short of the expectations set forth by HTC's lofty "Super LCD6" moniker.</p>

  1327. <p>Although the U12+'s display is an improvement over the U11+, we find the Super LCD 6 display to be overall dimmer than Super LCD 5 from the regular U11. It seems that HTC went with an inferior display when it switched to taller 18:9 panels.</p>
  1328.  
  1329. <p>We thought the display's color reproduction could be a little better but was not bad. The default DCI-P3 color profile (HDR 10) made whites look a bit too blue. The sRGB setting warms the white closer to accuracy but colors are still a bit brighter than accurate. Sliding the color temperature setting 1/10th of the way toward "cool" yielded the best results we could get. Some may wish there was a bit more control over the display's color accuracy.</p>
  1330.  
  1331. <p>Otherwise, it's still a great display for viewing and editing photos. Movies and TV shows are great to watch weather you use the BoomSound speakers and even better when using the included USonic earbuds.</p>

  1338.  
  1339. The U12+'s four microphones perform the noise-cancellation in device without the need for expensive external earbuds. You can always use your own pair of earbuds with a 3.5mm headphone jack, but you won't find an adapter included in the box. Also, bear in mind that the HTC U12+ won't do noise cancellation without

  1343. <p>HTC's USonic earbuds offer a personalization feature. A frequency signal is sent into your ear canal and just a few seconds later, your personal audio profile has been created. The calibration process even lets you hear a sample track with and without the custom tuning applied.</p>

  1345. <h3>Audio quality</h3>
  1346.  
  1347. <p>When hooked to an active external amplifier the HTC U12+ produced perfectly accurate output and loud output to rank as one of the better handsets in this test.</p>
  1348.  
  1349. <p>Plugging in a pair of headphones did an average amount of damage to the output - while the volume was unaffected the stereo crosstalk increased more than on some competing flagships. It's a very solid performance still, though.</p>

  1416. <p>The U12+ has a slightly larger 3,500 mAh battery than the U11's 3,300 mAh pack, but smaller than the 3,930 mAh one that the U11+ launched with. It's worth noting: although the U12+ is Quick Charge 4.0 compatible, it includes a Quick Charge 3.0 adapter in the box.</p>
  1417.  
  1418. <p>HTC Sense offers a couple of battery saving modes and a power management tool for setting a battery optimization level on a per-app basis. There's a regular power save mode that restricts sync, lowers brightness, and disables vibrations and animations throughout the UI. Extreme power save mode goes even further and limits the number of apps available to the user.</p>

  1432. <p>The U12+ fared a decent talk score: 21:51h, a couple more hours than the U11. Web browsing was not as good, scoring 7:48h while the U11 did almost ten-and-a-half hours. Video playback took a bit hit as well, yielding an endurance of 8:32h. The U11+ didn't do as well either, but did a little better.</p>
  1433.  
  1434. <p>Had HTC gone with as big a battery as the U11+ without trying to trim the body's dimensions, it would have a more acceptable battery endurance score for a $750 handset. HTC really had to reduce the maximum brightness of its display in order to keep battery life in check.</p>

  1454. <p>New to the U12+ is an updated version of the U11's squeeze feature: Edge Sense 2.0. This new version brings a couple of notable features: a third "edge" gesture is possible thanks to some new sensors in the frame that can detect the position of your fingers. Double tap either side and the default action is to shift the display into one-handed mode. Of course, you can customize this action to do whatever you'd like.</p>

  1465. <p>The other new feature is called "Holding Gesture" and uses those hand-detection sensors to detect when you're holding the phone in your hand. If you're using a single hand, it will override the rotate feature so you can keep reading whilst lying on a couch or bed. The other feature is similar to Samsung's Smart Stay: as long as you're holding the phone in your hand, the display won't turn off - pretty neat.</p>

  1473.  
  1474. <p>There's a Beta feature that lets you set an in-app squeeze action within any app, but it's basically a shortcut to a single or double tap within the app so if you set a short squeeze to open the Facebook Stories camera, it won't work once you start scrolling through your feed.</p>

  1486.  
  1487. <p>HTC's Sense UI has gotten leaner over the years but is still different enough to offer a unique experience versus vanilla Android. In HTC Sense, you won't find redundant apps - the default browser is Chrome, Google Photos is the gallery, and there is no unnecessary assistant.</p>
  1488.

  1491. <p>There is HTC's Companion App, but it's hardly a rip-off of Google Assistant. It's a contextual application that monitors your activity and nudges suggestions and tips that might help you along your day.</p>
  1492.  
  1493. <p>For example, it may remind you to charge your phone if you don't have enough juice to make it to your dinner meeting (provided it is in your calendar). This has been around since the HTC U Ultra and hasn't changed too much since its debut.</p>

We looked through the feed and there was a lot of news about President Trump, "5 things you didn't know..." lists, and a bunch of click-baity articles. Honestly, Facebook already exists for all of the above, so we'd just skip out on this app.</p>

  1644. <h3>Software buttons</h3>
  1645.  
  1646.  
  1647. <p>HTC has done something totally different with the buttons on the HTC U12+. They have been completely digitized, as in - they no longer press and click like traditional buttons. Pressure sensors that are needed for Edge Sense now have a second purpose: the "buttons" on the right side of the phone are actually nubs, and when pressure is directed into one of them, you get the haptic vibration of the input that was registered.</p>
  1648.  
  1649. <p>There are a couple of reasons that HTC did this: waterproofing is easier and not actually having button cutouts in the frame makes the phone structurally superior. We'd also imagine that Edge Sense 2.0 uses beefier pressure sensors, so putting actual buttons into the frame might require more space. In its current state, however, we have to report that the benefits don't outweigh the tradeoffs.</p>
  1650.  
  1651. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_009.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  1652.  
  1653. <p>The tradeoff is currently that customers will need undergo a short learning curve to become acquainted with these buttons. You don't need to press these all that hard, apply medium pressure in a smooth and consistent action and the feedback will come. There's not really a delay, it is more of a wink in time.</p>
  1654.  
  1655. <p>Pressing the power key is no problem, but what may frustrate users is cases where you need to press the button consecutively such as when raising or lowering the volume. Of course, you can press-hold the key but rapid-firing the volume buttons won't work as they do with literally any other phone.</p>
  1656.  
  1657. <p>One potential issue that we ran into was the Edge Sense trigger getting in the way of trying to press a digi-key. Our sensitivity was pretty moderate for Edge Sense, so it didn't actually trigger an action, but had the sensitivity been much lower, it would definitely get in the way of trying to change the volume.</p>
  1658.  
  1659. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_010.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  1660.  
  1661. <p>Also, during our balloon test while setting up Edge Sense, we found the + volume key inadvertently registering even though hand was down in the squeezable area.</p>
  1662.  
  1663. <p>There was not really anything wrong with the current physical keys that are on billions of phones around the globe. Folks are switching phones more often nowadays and a smartphone may become obsolete after it stops receiving updates in three years anyway, so this isn't a consumer pain-point as big as, say, the headphone jack being gone.</p>
  1664.  
  1665. <p>We think this wasn't an issue that HTC <i>needed</i> to solve. Ironically, now HTC created a problem that it needs to solve: the company will release an update sometime during the summer that will let the user adjust the sensitivity of these digital keys.</p>
  1666.  
  1667. <h3>Performance</h3>
  1668.  
  1669.  
  1670. <p>HTC's flagship packs the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 CPU and pairs it with 6GB of RAM. 2018 is the year that we're finally seeing RAM break past 4GB in more flagships than before. The U11 had both a 4GB and 6GB RAM model. With the U12, 6GB comes on both 64GB and 128GB models.</p>
  1671.  
  1672. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_011.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  1673.  
  1674. <p>The U12 is well-equipped to handle any multitasking and high-performance gaming or CPU-intensive app that you can throw at it. We testing it against other competitors in the same class. The unit we tested was a 6GB + 64GB retail unit.</p>
  1675.  
  1676. <p>In the GeekBench's multi-core test, The U12+ scored much like the other Snapdragon 845 devices, but the iPhone X's A11 Bionic still reigns atop the multi-core test. Still, the Galaxy S9+'s Exynos 8895 scored similarly to the other Qualcomm devices with a Snapdragon 845. The Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S led the pack, though not by too much more.</p>

This time around, the Mi Mix 2S appears to be the one who worked the 845 to its full potential. Samsung, OnePlus, and HTC are all very close behind when it comes to the AnTuTu benchmark.

  1969. <p>We have no complaints with the performance of the HTC U12+. Sense UI is quite well optimized and doesn't bog down Android since it is lean and snappy. Even running a benchmark repeatedly didn't slow down the U12+ as the all glass and metal build does a good job of dissipating heat from the phone's interior. The U12+ performed in line with other Snapdragon 845 devices, as it is expected.</p>

  1974. <h3>The dual camera is back on HTC </h3>
  1975.  
  1976.  
  1977. <p>Although HTC's flagship went from having two cameras on the U11 to four on the U12, it isn't the first HTC flagship to have a dual camera setup. The HTC One M8 had a separate depth sensor for adjusting focus after taking the shot. It even offered a not-so-convincing artificial blur-effect.</p>
  1978.  
  1979. <p>This is the first time HTC has put a dual camera on its flagship since 2014 on the HTC One M8. This is also the first time that HTC puts a dual front-facing camera on its flagship for taking selfies with artificial bokeh.</p>
  1980.  
  1981. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_012.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  1982.  
  1983. <p>The two main cameras are comprised of a 12MP wide camera with f/1.75 aperture and a 16MP telephoto lens with an aperture of f/2.6. This second camera, of course, brings artificial bokeh and 2x optical zoom to the HTC Camera experience. The front-camera also gets artificial bokeh selfies despite having neither OIS nor autofocus.</p>
  1984.  
  1985. <p>The camera UI has shortcuts for the video camera and portrait modes along with a beauty toggle, resolution chooser, flash, and HDR Boost. Additional camera modes are in the menu drawer and include Panorama, Pro, Video, Hyperlapse, and slow-motion.</p>
  1986.  
  1987. <img class="inline-image" src="<#ISRoot#>reviews/18/htc-u12-plus/review/lifestyle/-728w2/gsmarena_016.jpg" height="" width="" alt="HTC U12 Plus Review review">
  1988.  
  1989. <p>Pro mode gives you control to white balance, ISO up to 800, shutter speed up to 32 seconds, and focus control. You can even save three sets of custom manual controls for using again at a later time. We are also glad that the camera app offers a dedicated video viewfinder.</p>
  1990.  
  1991. __________Camera UI shsots__________
  1992.  
  1993. <p>Like the U11 and U11+ did, the U12+ uses image stacking to process an image with HDR Boost with both the front and the rear cameras. We do believe that one of the cameras benefit from HDR Boost while the other does not.</p>
  1994.  
  1995. <p>Here are some camera samples. Photos are generally warm in color temperature while details are excellent. Dynamic range is great and colors are true to life. This camera does offer a RAW shooting mode when you switch to the Pro for total control over the images you want to edit.</p>
  1996.  
  1997. <p>Something we have noticed, however, is that the camera is quite dependent on HDR Boost. Just keep in mind if you leave HDR Boost on at all times, you may encounter some blurring of people or objects that are in motion.</p>

  2013.  
  2014. <p>There's a distinct texture that appears in these blurry people, but it's only noticeable when you really zoom in. There's also a strangely distinct texture within the phone's organic bokeh. In pictures that are more close-up, you can see the natural f/1.75 bokeh of the camera.</p>
  2015.  
  2016. <p>What it looks like is happening is the post-image software is trying to reduce noise within the bokeh. This seems to happen more when the camera sees an organic bokeh and HDR Boost is enabled. Otherwise, photos with a much deeper bokeh like the image of the little white daisy flower don't appear as processed.</p>

  2031.  
  2032. <p>HDR Boost works quite well and can really brighten darker areas or suppress highlights from blowing out the image. Dynamic range does appear to struggle in scenes where there's a lot of light in the sky behind the subject.</p>

  2035.  
  2036. <p>HDR Boost does improve the imbalance, but if you'd rather not trust the camera for really drastic dynamic range shots, set the exposure manually by tapping on a focal point and sliding the exposure up or down.</p>
  2037.  
  2038. <p>Now that the U12 has a dual camera, we can now perform 2X optical zoom while taking pictures or videos. 2X zoom works well in photos, but there is some more noticeable noise in the image, particularly in lower-light conditions.</p>

  2053. <p>In low-light, the HTC U12 does quite well, particularly when shooting with HDR Boost. Naturally, moving objects are far more prone to blurring in these lower-light conditions. If your scene is static, you can get some very nice-looking night-time photos with the U12+. We do wish that HTC went for a brighter aperture lens. By contrast, the U11 had an aperture of f/1.7 while this one does one of f/1.75, which is barely the same.</p>

  2086. <p>The front-facing cameras are not bad. We think they take soft-looking selfies. Details aren't the best of any other front camera out there but some of our samples in direct sunlight produces the best and sharpest details out of this camera.</p>

  2089.  
  2090. <p>Something to keep in mind is that HDR Boost is best used in brighter lighting conditions. It does a good job of bringing highlights down to an acceptable level. If you were to take the same kind of Bokeh selfies outside in the late-afternoon on an overcast day, you'll find that HDR Boost actually doesn't work in favor of the image. It still tries to bring down the highlights, even though they don't need to be, resulting an image with darker tones and unnecessary contrast.</p>

  2106. <p>The general consensus with HDR Boost that is that it can be set to Auto with the main cameras, but the front-facing camera should use it in overly-bright lighting conditions.</p>
  2107.  
  2108. <p>The selfie camera already softens facial features, so the contrast between the artificial blur and the softened subject doesn't make for a very stunning combination. Also like the main cameras, the Bokeh selfies reduce the amount of resolved detail compared to non-Bokeh'd snaps.</p>

  2116.  
  2117. <p>Overall, we found the U12's front facing camera to be a bit too soft in most lighting conditions. Selfies taken in bright sunlight will appear sharper than any resulting indoor photo. Otherwise, colors look a bit muted compared to the shots we took with the main cameras. The actual Bokeh is just okay when looking at the boundaries around our selfies up close. The shots look nice, but these selfies won't win any awards.</p>
  2118.  
  2119. <p>Beauty mode has several adjustments: smoothness, brightness, face width, and eye size. We took some with the auto setting but found it to be too much for our taste. We prefer to use very mild beauty mode if any.</p>

  2150.  
  2151. <h3>Sonic Zoom and Audio Boost</h3>
  2152.  
  2153.  
  2154. <p>The U12+ has HTC's Sonic Zoom feature, formerly known as Acoustic Focus in the U11. What this does is zooms in on the subject that's directly in front of the camera by suppressing surrounding noise. It does this with the four microphones outfitted around the phone.</p>
  2155.  
  2156. <h3>Sonic Zoom YT embed</h3>
  2157.  
  2158.  
  2159. <p>While Sonic Zoom isn't all that new, Audio Boost is. It does the same thing that Sonic Zoom does only without actually zooming into the video. The feature works to reduce ambient noise and focus audio on the subject in front of the camera.</p>
  2160.  
  2161. <p>Audio Boost YT embed.</p>
  2162.  
  2163. <p>There is a dedicated video viewfinder, which we do appreciate. There are plenty of shooting modes including 4K video recording at 60fps and slow-motion video recording of 1080p footage at 240 fps. Aside from Audio Boost and Sonic Zoom, there are a couple of other audio recording modes: 3D Audio and Hi-Res. 3D audio is the default audio and records two channels with "virtual" surround sound thanks to the four pickup microphones. Hi-Res audio records in the FLAC codec into the MKV video format.</p>
  2164.  
  2165. <p>This video format is not a one or the more widely used ones, so the chance that you'll run into playback compatibility issues is quite high. You may need to download a third-party video player like VLC.</p>

  2171. <p>Though, there are a couple of things worth mentioning when it comes to the video viewfinder. While taking our video samples for our comparison tool, we discovered a bug: it seems that the video viewfinder is feeding from one camera while the actual video is being captured with another one.</p>
  2172.  
  2173. <p>If we want to be technical, this causes a vertical displacement of the video image so the precision of the viewfinder was only slightly off. Also, this only appears to happen when taking video in full HD-res.</p>

  2178. <h3>Competition</h3>
  2179.  
  2180.  
  2181. <p>The HTC U12+ finds itself in a very difficult and critical price range: $750. At this cost, there is not much room for compromise or cutting corners. We are taking a look at some of the top smartphones of the year in this price range.</p>
  2182.

  2184.  
  2185. <p>In no particular order, let's take a look at some competitors starting with the LG G7 ThinQ. Although it has a notched display, it has a much brighter display with excellent sunlight legibility and carries the same sticker price as the U12+. Also consider the more versatile camera complete with pro-level video controls complete with audio gain. Finally, don't forget about the G7's wide-angle camera.</p>
  2186.  
  2187. <p>Samsung's Galaxy S9+ offers an all-around excellent software, hardware, and camera that all performs well worth its own price range. The Galaxy S9+ might be too much phone for some folks, but those who choose the Galaxy S9+ realize they are making a solid choice.</p>
  2188.  
  2189. <p>If the U12+'s price has you on the fence, the OnePlus 6 offers a very compelling smartphone package for a much lower price. OnePlus has proven that a young smartphone startup does know how to properly tune a camera and this camera experience surely holds a candle to the U12+'s. Pair that with the latest processor and up to 8GB of RAM for a smooth and lag-free Android experience.</p>
  2190.  
  2191. <p>If you're looking for the holy grail of cameras, consider the Huawei P20 Pro. Its camera is a triple-threat (quite literally) to other phones. It can do black & white photos, 3X and 5X zoom, 40MP images, and hand-held low-light shooting with impressive results. It has a large battery and runs Huawei's EMUI, which is a heavily skinned but also well-optimized variant of Android.</p>
