On the afternoon of May 23, 2018, HTC officially released their new flagship handset, the HTC U12+ . HTC still puts the selling point on the camera this time. The new "film-level auto-zoom" mode and "audio zoom" technology can make the mobile phone more convenient when shooting video, and the availability of video will be higher than before. In addition, the emergence of HDR boost 2.0 can also enhance the static shooting performance of the HTC U12+.
Overall, it is a new HTC flagship that highlights photo shooting and video recording skills.
In terms of appearance, the HTC U12+ is equipped with a standard 6-inch 18/9 full screen. It did not use such special-shaped screens as Liu Haiping, and it should be considered a minority in this year's new fleet. The “forehead” section at the top of the screen houses dual 8-megapixel front dual cameras, earpieces, and distance sensors. The frame of the fuselage is narrow and the screen share is higher. The rear dual camera is placed on the back of the camera, the flash is placed under the camera, and under the flash is the post-fingerprint identification key.
HTC brought three color combinations for U12+, including ceramic black, flame red, and perspective blue. Perspective blue back can see some internal structure, which is somewhat similar to the perspective black of HTC U11+, but the degree of perspective is not so high.

System experience, HTC U12 + joined Edge Sense 2 operation. This control method can customize the operation corresponding to different pressing degrees, in addition there are more pressing gestures for the user to choose.
Edge Sense 2 is not just for launching applications, but also for doing things in applications. At the time of release, HTC stated that this feature is already available on most apps in the app store, and official apps and third-party apps support these gestures. Users only need to set gestures according to their needs. This is also considered HTC's U12+ ultra-narrow frame processing and operation optimization.
In addition, HTC U12+ has built-in Baidu's small assistant, the intelligent voice assistant, which enables users to perform voice operations.
Photo and video
In terms of cameras, the HTC U12+ uses a front-rear, four-camera combination. The front camera is a pair of 8 million cameras, and the rear camera is a combination of 12 million pixels (wide-angle) and 16 million pixels (telephoto). The aperture of the wide-angle lens is f/ 1.75, telephoto lens aperture is f/2.6, support optical image stabilization.
The U12+'s rear dual camera supports UltraSpeed 2.0 full-pixel autofocus technology. The camera supports both phase focus and laser focus modes. According to officials, the HTC U12+ rear dual camera supports 1.85x to 2x optical zoom and up to 10x digital zoom.
In addition, the camera is also equipped with HDR Boost 2.0 and human face monitoring technology, can take photos of blurring simulation and AR fun stickers. After entering professional mode, the HTC U12+ has a maximum exposure time of 32 seconds and can output RAW format photos.
In the camera introduction, video shooting enhancement is the focus of this flagship update.
The HTC U12+ supports 4K video recording. At the same time, the HTC U12+ can record 8 million-pixel photos. During the video shooting process, electronic image stabilization and optical image stabilization work at the same time, further improving the anti-shake effect. In slow-motion recording, it supports up to 1080P 240fps slow-motion video capture.
Radio and automatic zoom are the core of the update of the HTC U12+ in video recording.
First talk about audio recording, this time the HTC U12+ can reach 96kHz/24bit Hi-Res Audio specifications in audio recording, and also introduced a function called “Sonic Zoom”. This source zoom can enhance the source reception for specific directions in the picture. Compared with the HTC U11, the volume is increased by 60% and audio source accuracy is increased by 33%. When you only have a mobile phone to shoot video, the effect will be much better than before.
In combination with Hi-Res audio recording, HTC U12+ video recording should bring a lot of advantages. However, this is only the advantage of the book, the specific effect is still ready to wait for the conclusion.
In addition, HTC also introduced the automatic zoom function. The user turns on this mode to shoot video and can take a smooth automatic zoom effect. After all, not many people can use the camera to achieve a smooth zoom effect, HTC is also given as a new method of shooting this time.
In addition to the improvement in the quality of photography, these two points should be interesting points in this camera update.
Audio frequency
Following HTC's tradition, the HTC U12+ is equipped with the HTC BoomSound Hi-Fi speaker system and HTC USonic technology.
Of course, with the HTC U12+ and the Usonic smart sonar headset, the HTC U12+ can automatically sense the ambient noise and adjust it in real time to reduce the influence of the outside world on the sense of hearing and achieve the “smart noise reduction” effect. This technology is actually somewhat similar to DIGITAL NC.
For wireless access, the HTC U12+ supports Qualcomm® aptXTM HD, LDACTM transmits via Bluetooth®, and supports 32-bit high resolution wireless audio, which is sufficient for most wireless headsets on the market.
Price and version
When the new machine was released, HTC only announced the US dollar price. Among them, 6GB RAM+64GB ROM version is priced at 699 US dollars (approximately 4462 yuan), while the 6GB RAM+128GB ROM version is 849 US dollars (approximately 5420 yuan), the State Bank version of the price is not yet Announced.
It is also worth noting that U12 + will only provide 128 in China, the United States, and Canada, and 64G in other countries. However, the U12+ itself supports the expansion of 2TB microSD memory cards, and the storage space problem does not need to be too tangled.
