HTC U12 Life Review

Score: 74.4 / 100

HTC U12 Life is a brilliantly made Android phone launched some years ago, in 2018, equipped with a great 1800 MHz Octa-Core processor, a large 6" display, and 2 cameras, a 16 megapixels back facing camera and a 13 MP front-facing camera.

The HTC U12 Life is available only in 16 777 216 color. Regarding its construction materials, the HTC U12 Life is majorly built with Plastic . HTC has made an excellent job making this device as lightweight as 6.17 oz. The HTC U12 Life only has 6.24" long, but it still manages to hold a 6" screen. The HTC U12 Life is slim and comfortable, with a thickness of just 0.33 inches.

The HTC U12 Life has a incredible 6" screen with a 1080 x 2160 resolution, making everything look perfect.

HTC equipped this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 SDM636 chip, holding a high performance 1800 MHz Octa-Core processor with a big 4 GB of RAM. The HTC U12 Life has a 64 GB amazing internal storage and an external memory card slot, which allows the user to install hundreds of apps without even thinking about running out of space at all.

This phone features two cameras, a 16 MP back camera and a 13 mega-pixels front side camera. This device also captures videos in 3840x2160 (4K) at 30 fps.

This phone provides Wi-Fi capability (which can be shared with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE-A 4G , a really fast connection type and also HSPA+ connectivity (which is a bit slower 4G type) and fast 3G data connection, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. This phone uses two Nano SIM cards so it is able to use 2 different phone lines and even different carriers.

This cellphone also includes a lot of useful features like Fingerprint Sensor, NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth (allows communication with other phones and accessories) and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This cellphone features a great 3600 mAh non-removable battery, enough to provide this device with an extremely long battery duration. An issue to take into consideration is that the HTC U12 Life's battery isn't replaceable so you can't change it when it starts to lose capacity, though with so much capacity you will probably replace this cellphone before that becomes an issue.

If you will use it as a gaming cellphone, want it to take plenty of photographs, need a cellphone for work or will use it as a social cellphone, this phone is probably a good choice for you.
