what's up guys David here and the 2017 smartphone season is officially underway I'm excited to bring you guys more videos thumbs up if you are excited to today with a speed test between the first flagship smartphone of the year from ACC and the u ultra going head-to-head with the current bumblestop recess champ in the iPhone 7 plus now the U ultra is an interesting phone from ACC it's not quite what I was expecting from them and to be honest the spec sheet isn't all that impressive especially given its $700 plus price tag but then again if you look at the iPhone 7 plus the spec sheet its specs aren't mind-blowing either but yet it remains the fastest smartphone in the world so the question is the HTC optimised view ultra enough to actually change that or at the very least keep up with the iPhone let's find out but before we get into it I want to give a quick shout out to Full Sail University for sponsoring today's episode Full Sail offers technology degree programs both on campus and online to help you build a skill set for the tech industry learn more at the link below alright we'll kick things off by starting the stopwatch is on each phone and then immediately taking a selfie where the U ultras faster camera launch puts it ahead early on in the speed test as it moves on to the second row with the iPhone just a half step behind but as we've seen time and time again while the quicker animations on Android phones helped give them an edge in the lightweight application the iPhones faster storage and 810 processor make up for it in the heavier applications like Photoshop and lab Sid where the iPhone 7 actually takes the lead process you had time lapse like it was nothing having already moved on to the gaming row however the Snapdragon 820 won under the hood of the U ultra has proven that it's no slouch either with it completing the time-lapse fairly quickly pushing the U ultra on through the gaming row where it'll try to cut down on the iPhone bleed but the iPhone is once again proving why it's the undefeated Pombo style recess champ just blazing through all these heavy-duty games as this their lightweight application with it now two full apps ahead so the chance of seeing it come back by the HTC are getting slimmer and slimmer and I do have to say that the U ultra is looking a bit slower here in the first lap compared to some of the other Snapdragon 820 one phones we've tested like the pixel for example but who knows we do still have a few apps left to go in the first lap with the whole second lap ahead where historically HTC has done a pretty good job at managing its RAM but unfortunately for the U ultra so has the iPhone with it now going through the second lap after finishing the first with the time of 1 minute and 17 seconds and just as we've seen in previous be tests the iPhone is having no issues keeping the apps open in the background with us pausing on each apps to make sure that the app is actually open as sometimes the iOS shows you a screenshot of the last saved space but yes all the apps are actually open with the iPhone racing to the finish line and looking to laughter you ultra and it does finishing with a total time of 1 minute and 49 seconds with the U ultra still working on loading both the mobile and the full versions of the Amazon website finishing the first claps 10 seconds after the iPhone finished both laps with the time of 1 minute and 59 seconds so we'll go ahead and fast-forward the ACC to the finish line where unfortunately it's 4 gigabytes of RAM proved to be insufficient as it struggled to keep all the apps open having to reload almost every single app outside of Photoshop lapses and subway server surprisingly with it completing the test over 8 minutes after the iPhone with the total time of 3 minutes and 30 seconds making the winner and still fumble style speed test champ the iPhone 7 plus now before we take a look at the individual app load up times I want to give a shout out to Full Sail University for sponsoring today's video innovations and Technology are constantly changing our lives on both a professional and on a personal level so if you're into the latest tech and how it's changing the world around you check out Full Sail University located just outside of Orlando Florida also I spent 30 years developing degree programs to help you build a skill set to work in a tech industry fulfills stimulation and visualization degree program was designed to create future engineers who will develop this systems for the 21st century from creating computerized models for understanding complex data to developing virtual environments for gaming or if you're interested in how data is transmitted and stored check out the cloud technologies degree program where you can study architecture information storage and systems administration then implement these concepts through comprehensive hands-on projects all the full sales web and tech programs are designed specifically to adapt as new methods and applications unfold allowing students to remain relevant and informed throughout their entire academic journey to learn more about these programs in all of those sales other technology degree programs visit Full Sail edu slash Bomba alright so here the individual app load up times from the first lab as promised but aside from 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
