what's up guys david here and a few months back we did a speed test with the HTC u ultra and pretty much like the rest of that phone the results weren't all that impressive but luckily thankfully the u otro wasn't HTC's true flagship smartphone I mean they were acting like it was so it's not heard sales so somehow the price and spec sheet weren't going to do that already but today we have HTC's real flagship in the u 11 we have the standard 40 gigabyte model here today going up against the standard Galaxy s8 Plus which given how close these two are in terms of specs it'll really show us the optimization that each of these manufacturers has put into their smartphones but before we get into it I want to thank Squarespace for sponsoring today's episode whether you need a domain a website or

right you know the drill we'll kick things off by starting with stopwatches on each phone and then jump right into the first row of system ads both Onslow the cameras at about the same rate but the s8 does give the lead over the you 11 in the Photos app however the you 11 doesn't look complacent with a cutting down on that lead loading both settings and Facebook at a faster rate putting it just a half step behind the s8 as both balls work on Photoshop mix so the s8 finishes Photoshop at a faster rate with both Walltown moving on to lapses now in theory the 11 should be able to make a comeback here with its higher 2.45 gigahertz clock speed and yeah the U 11 just blows through laughs it's easily passing the s8 and it's 2.3 5 gigahertz clock speeds with you 11 looking to build on its lead here in subway surfers and yeah once again it loads the app up at a faster rate finally creating just a little bit of separation between the two but the s8 still has plenty of time to make a comeback with six more apps left here in the first lap that's I mentioned that we have the entire second lap left to go but so far things aren't looking so hot for Samsung's flagship with it falling even further behind as the U 11 loads both flip diving and fits a phat at a faster rate so as we head into bullet force we'll see if the s8 can at least load one of the four games faster than the U 11 which would definitely help it cut down on its lead and give the SI a real shot at making a comeback but no the opposite happens with the U 11 not only loading the game faster but doing so decisively with increasing ously so the largest one we've seen yet in the speed test with the U 11 pulling a full lap ahead as both phones start working on the last row so at this point the SI it's only real hope lies in the second lap which isn't the most promising given samsung's track record but the U 11 hasn't proven itself yet as it finishes the first lap at the time of one minute and 37 seconds with the s8 coming in 6 seconds later at a time of 1 minute and 43 so so far so good for the U 11 with it keeping all the apps including bullet force and fit to fat open but it fails to keep flip diving ready to go but lucky for its the Galaxy s8 stumbles on bullet force so despite failing to keep all the apps open the U 11 is able to pull significantly ahead of the s8 here in the second lap now something I wanted to point out to you guys is that you should only compare the results and the speed test to the phones that were put through the same exact speed test sometimes we use different apps in different speed tests due to things like an app not working properly on a new phone or we change things up to make the track more intensive like when we're testing phones with six or eight gigabytes RAM the point here is it's not about the last time or the total number of apps at home to keep open it's about how much faster that last time is and how many more apps a phone can keep open relative to the phone that is being directly compared to which in this case the HTC u 11 just outclassed the Galaxy s8 finishing the entire test with a time of 2 minutes and 30 seconds what does having to fast forward the Galaxy s8 suit the finish line where it completed the test there before seconds later with the time of 3 minutes and 4 seconds making the winner the HTC you here's a look at the individual app load of times from the first flat where you can see just where the u11 beat out the Galaxy s8 but after that that is it for me in this video thank you guys for watching and as always I'll see you in the very next episode
