HTC 11 – water resistant, no headphone jack

HTC 11 - water resistant, no headphone jack

According to one Twitter used nicknamed LlabTooFer, HTC 11, also known as HTC Ocean, will lack 3.5mm headphone jack – no big surprise, seeing as its predecessor flagship HTC U Ultra ditched it as well. LlabTooFer also believes (by the way, her/his source of information is not revealed) that HTC 11 will be waterproof (IP57 certificate, 30 minutes in up to 1 meter beneath the water surface – weaker than the IP68 waterproofness) and that it will not be dust-proof. While these drawbacks are not shattering, they do put HTC 11 in an disadvantage, since most of the recent and upcoming flagships do have one if not both of those things and more. On the other hand, HTC 11 will have a Sense Frame feature – you know, a pressure sensitive frame that, when squeezed, can act as a controller.

I guess we will find out what HTC 11 has in store soon, as the phone’s release is rumoured to take place at the end of April.
