The HTC U11 has a bit better processing power than Samsung Galaxy A6, and although they both have 8 processing cores, the HTC U11 also has more RAM. The HTC U11 counts with slightly more storage capacity for apps and games than Galaxy A6, because although it has a slot for SD memory cards that admits 272 GB smaller, it also counts with 32 GB more internal storage capacity.
HTC U11 features a little bit better camera than Galaxy A6, because although it has a lot lower resolution camera, and they both have a same size aperture, the HTC U11 also counts with a much better 3840x2160 (4K) video quality and a larger sensor which provides a higher image and video quality. Galaxy A6 features a battery life that is very similar to the battery performance in HTC U11.
Although HTC U11 is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than the Galaxy A6, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Galaxy A6. So if you need that extra features and specs, you can buy HTC U11, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Galaxy A6, resigning a couple specs and features.
