HTC’s squeezable phone, the U11, has officially touched Indian shores. The real highlight of the phone is its Edge Sense technology that allows users to perform certain actions by applying pressure on the side metal frame.

HTC U11 is a lot more than just its squeeze feature. The premium device exhibits a liquid crystal design, impressive audio capabilities, water and dust resistance and last but not the least – it offers the best DxoMark rated smartphone camera.

Specs and feature wise, the HTC U11 is right up there when compared to flagship devices. It is powered by a Snapdragon 835 chipset along with a 6GB RAM + 128GB storage combination. It features a 5.5-inch Quad HD display with a Gorilla Glass 5 shield placed on the top.
