HTC knows how to make a good-looking phone, and the HTC U Ultra and U Play are gorgeous in glass.

The phones run on Android 7.0.

You'll be able to see the U Ultra and U Play from even more angles in the next slides, including how reflective and smudgy the phone gets.
There's no headphone jack and no water-resistant coating on either phone, but there is that gorgeous body and all that AI. Read our hands-on impressions of the HTC U Ultra and U Play.
