HTC’s Sense 7 to land on HTC One M8 in next update

Owners of the HTC One M8 have started to receive their Android Lollipop update, but they have noticed that they do not get HTC’s latest interface, Sense 7. That missing piece is surely a disappointment to some, but leaving it out of the current update probably helped get Lollipop onto the One M8 a little bit faster. HTC vice president Mo Versi has now confirmed that the One M8 will get Sense 7, but it will not be until the next major upgrade is released.

Versi has not provided any information regarding a time frame for the next update to be released. His comments came in response to a question about the update rolling out to AT&T devices that started earlier this week. He has also announced that the One M8 GPE has been approved to receive an update to Android 5.1. The current version of Lollipop rolling out to AT&T One M8 devices is 5.0.2, so the next update will probably take those devices up to 5.1 and include Sense 7. Since all the pieces are in place, the process should go fairly quickly – at least as quickly as carrier certifications go.

@MohammadAsad528 no, this won’t but our next update will include it. Thanks.
