HTC just confirmed that it received the final Android 5.0 Lollipop code from Google - so it can now start working on official updates for its One (M8) and One (M7) handsets. According to HTC, both devices will get Lollipop within 90 days from today, November 3. In consequence, users should expect the update to arrive in early February 2015 the latest.
According to a recent report, the Android 5.0 Lollipop for the One (M8) won’t come with Sense 7 UI (allegedly pictured on the left), as rumored not long ago, but with the current Sense 6 UI. Sure enough, we’ll have to wait until the update is actually released to know if this is true or not.
HTC said that details regarding Lollipop updates for other handsets will be announced soon. We’re thinking that most HTC smartphones released this year will get Lollipop eventually. As for those from last year, besides the One (M7), the One mini and One max are likely going to be updated, too. We’ll let you know when we hear more on this.
