It may have taken over 7 months, but HTC has finally confirmed in which quarter it plans to release Android 9 Pie for the U11, U11+ and the U12+. The three devices should receive the update in Q2 this year, which could by the end of June at the latest. Do not hold your breath though, because HTC has thrown in some caveats too.

That's not very fast, but the HTC U11 has been released at the same time that the Galaxy S7 and the S7 won't have Android Pie. So HTC is not very good but there is worse.

The U11 is of the same generation as the S8, not the S7.
