Renders and 360-degree video of HTC U 11 surface

HTC will launch its latest flagship, the HTC U 11 on May 16. The device has been part of several leaks, including renders giving us an idea what it looks like, and a recent retail box art leak revealed the entire specs sheet.

Unlike Samsung and LG who are moving towards bezel-less display, HTC U 11's unique feature lies in its edges/frames, which are pressure sensitive, and users can squeeze the edges to trigger different actions. This feature is called Edge Sense.

That said, until now we have only seen the front and rear of the device, but if you want to see the HTC U 11 from all angles, 91mobile/Onleaks have released 3D renders and 360-degree video, and are in line with previous leaks. The renders show the HTC U 11 in Red, which is one of the color it will be offered in apart from White, Black, Blue and Silver.

As seen in the renders, the HTC U 11 will sport an aluminum unibody design and will have a fingerprint scanner on the front baked into the home button. The power button and volume controls are on the right side, and the bottom part houses USB Type-C port, microphone and a speaker grille. There is no headphone jack, like the HTC U Ultra and U Play, so the audio will be delivered by USB-C port.

According to the source, with the implementation of Edge Sense on HTC U 11, the thickness of the top and bottom of the device will differ - 9.2mm and 8mm respectively. It will measure 154mm (H) x 76mm (W).

As mentioned earlier, the specs are no mystery, as it was leaked again and again. You can check it out below:
