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 ultra, wasn't HTC's true flagship. Smartphone I mean they were acting like it was to not hurt 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 S 8s +, 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 an online store make your next move with Squarespace they've got a bunch of beautifully designed templates that look great, whether you're on a desktop or on a smartphone.

But with that said, let's get set a speed test all right. You know the drill we'll kick things off by starting the stopwatch is on each phone and then jump right into the first row of system, apps both On slow the cameras at about the same rate, but the s8 does get the lead over the eleven in the Photos app.
However, the U 11 doesn't look complacent with it. 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 malls work on Photoshop mix, so the s8 finishes Photoshop at a faster rate with both walls now moving on to lapse it's now in theory, the y11 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 2.35 gigahertz clock speed with you, 11 looking to build on its lead here in Subway's, sir and yeah. Once again, it loads the app up at a faster rate, finally creating just a little 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, not to mention 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 fit the fat at a faster rate. So as we head into bullet force, we'll see if the s8 can at least slowed one of the four games faster than the U 11, which would definitely help it cut down on its lead and give the s8 a real shot at making a comeback.
But now the opposite happens with the U 11. Not only loading the game faster, but doing so decisively with it increasing its lead to 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 s8 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 of the time of 1 minute and 37 seconds, with the s 8s coming in 6 seconds later, with 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 the phat open. But it fails to keep flip diving ready to go but lucky for it. The Galaxy S8 stumbles on bullet pours. 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 a speed test to the phones that were put through this 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 of RAM. The point here is: it's not about the lap time or the total number of apps. That bomb can keep open it's about how much faster that lap 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 with us having to fast-forward the Galaxy S8 to the finish line where it concluded the test 34 seconds later, with the time of 3 minutes and or seconds making the winner, the HTC? U 11, here's a look at the individual, app load of time from the first lap, where you can see just where the U 11 beats out the galaxy s 8, but outside 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.
