The fact that I could squeeze and play with the phone instantly made me like the HTC U11. The ‘squeeze’ feature acts like a shortcut gesture, something like what we have seen with Moto’s


flick gesture or OnePlus’ Alert Slider. Although, I feel HTC’s gesture squeeze is the most intuitive. The HTC U11's Edge Sense feature allows you to squeeze the phone where the pressure


sensors on the phone’s sides helps you interact with different applications of the phone. You have options like “short squeeze” or “squeeze and hold”. The company has said that they will


add more gestures in the future. The liquid glass surface design looks beautiful and I loved the way it reflects different colours in different lights. The 5.5-inch quad-HD display is


fantastic! HTC didn’t stretch this one, unlike the S8 or the G6 display and stuck to the traditional thick bezel design. It offers great viewing angles and performs well even under direct


sunlight.
