Alleged HTC U 11 renders show a glossy red version of the phone

HTC U 11 - this is (likely) the name of the brand new flagship smartphone that HTC will announce later this month, on May 16. The company already released a few teasers showcasing bits and parts of the U 11, while also indirectly confirming a rumor: the new handset features a squeezable frame (reportedly, this will be called Edge Sense).

Before HTC gets the chance to officially present its next generation flagship, it seems that we can already take a look at it - or at least at renders that reportedly show what the real device will look like. Revealed by 91 Mobiles and @OnLeaks (a very reliable source), said renders are based on factory CAD sketches, and show a glossy red variant of the HTC U 11.

As you can see for yourself below, the HTC U 11 has thin bezels on the left and right sides of the screen, but not-so-thin top and bottom bezels. As for the overall thinness, it's said that the handset is 8 mm thick at the bottom, and 9.2 mm thick at the top - due to the squeezable frame mentioned above.



Specs-wise, the HTC U Ultra is expected to be pretty much on par with other 2017 flagship handsets, thanks to Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835 processor, up to 6 GB of RAM, and up to 128 GB of expandable internal memory. The new HTC smartphone should further feature a 12 MP rear camera, a 16 MP front-facing camera, USB Type-C port, and a 3000 mAh battery. Android 7.1 Nougat will be running the show from launch.

Mind you, the HTC U 11 is the handset previously presented as HTC Ocean, which explains the similarity between these new renders and the Ocean photos seen last month.
