A few issues notwithstanding, HTC have found a new sense of identity with their U smartphone range. What’s more, it looks like the U Play and U Ultra handsets released earlier this month are only the start of the story for the U brand.Infamous tech-blogger Evan Blass, writing for VentureBeat, says
that the 2017 flagship for the U range is still yet to come. He says
that the new smartphone, codenamed Ocean, will bring a unique
gesture-based control scheme called Sense Edge.
According to him “frame-embedded sensors enable the user to control
numerous, customizable actions with gestures such as squeezing or
swiping along the left and right sides.”
Blass says that the handset will also boast the Snapdragon 835 processor and a fearsome pairing on 12 and 16-megapixel cameras.
No timeline on an official reveal or availability but when it does
arrive it’ll be under the simple moniker of HTC U, according to Blass.
