What to Expect from HTC Sense 7
HTC Sense 7 is expected to bring a host of new features and improvements to the HTC One M8. One of the most anticipated features is the enhanced customization options. Users will be able to personalize their home screens with new themes, wallpapers, and icon packs. Additionally, HTC Sense 7 will introduce a more intuitive and user-friendly interface, making it easier for users to navigate through their device.
Another significant improvement in HTC Sense 7 is the enhanced camera software. The update will bring new camera modes and features, allowing users to capture better photos and videos. The camera interface will also be more streamlined, making it easier for users to access different camera settings and modes.
Android 5.1 Lollipop Features
Alongside HTC Sense 7, the HTC One M8 will also receive the Android 5.1 Lollipop update. Android 5.1 brings several new features and improvements to the operating system. One of the key features is the improved stability and performance. Users can expect a smoother and more responsive experience with fewer crashes and bugs.
Android 5.1 also introduces new security features, such as Device Protection, which ensures that your device remains locked even if it is reset to factory settings. This feature adds an extra layer of security, making it more difficult for thieves to access your personal information.
Another notable feature of Android 5.1 is the improved notifications system. Users will have more control over their notifications, with the ability to prioritize and manage them more effectively. Additionally, the update brings support for multiple SIM cards, allowing users to use two different phone numbers on the same device.
As yet, it is not clear whether this update is just for the UK version of the HTC One M8 or whether it will apply to other countries. HTC has a history of rolling out updates in stages, so it is possible that other regions will receive the update shortly after the UK.
As soon as we get more details on exactly when the Android 5.1 Lollipop update and the HTC Sense 7 update will be available for the HTC One M8, we will let you guys know.
