HOLLYWOOD IN YOUR HAND

As HTC’s biggest, boldest flagship phone ever, the HTC U12+ has a lot to boast about. Its Live on the Edge philosophy has resulted in a smartphone that hits all the right notes when offering unrivalled one-handed usability and Hollywood-like multimedia features.

The HTC U12+ takes your onehanded smartphone experience to another level with Edge Sense 2. The technology turns the edges of your phone into the easiest and most intuitive way to interact with it. A simple doubletap on the side of the U12+ will trigger one-handed mode, which shrinks the screen to a much more manageable size. When the U12+ senses you’re holding it in portrait mode, a slight tip of the device will no longer accidentally trigger auto-rotate. With a vivid 6-inch display with cinematic 18:9 widescreen, you can also squeeze the sides for taking in-action photos and videos.

When getting the perfect picture is a top priority, the HTC U12+ again excels. Two cameras on the front and back deliver beautifully artistic photos with DSLR-like bokeh, giving you silver screen-worthy backgrounds to complement a striking focal image. UltraSpeed Autofocus 2 ensures you never miss a shot, while HDR Boost 2 enables fantastic photos in any light. It’s so good, the HTC U12+ received a DxOMark score of 103 — the highest rated camera in the industry for a dual camera smartphone.

Not to be outdone, perhaps one of the coolest multimedia features is Sonic Zoom. With 2x optical zoom and 10x digital zoom, you can use the camera to focus in on a specific sound or voice; perfect for recording concerts and performances just like a Hollywood director.

Not only does it perform spectacularly, but in true HTC fashion the U12+ is a real stunner. Available in signature translucent blue — unlike anything else on the market today — it also comes in an earthy ceramic black or a flame red, which can shift from a deep red hue all the way to a gold look.

For this smartphone, it’s all about handling lights, cameras and action with ease.
