LlabTooFer breaks down the likely update schedule for HTC Devices, confirms existence of Sense 6.0

update schedule for HTC DevicesIf you’re an owner of a HTC device, but you don’t own a HTC One, you’re probably feeling a little left out at the moment. While HTC has done a pretty good job sticking to their word and getting Android KitKat out to the HTC One in around 90 days, the Taiwanese manufacturer has stayed pretty quiet on what the update status of its other devices are (unless you own a HTC One X/X+; sorry!). So while HTC is busily tinkering behind closed doors, it turns to HTC guru, LlabTooFer, to appease the masses with a suggested update schedule for HTC Devices.

According to the schedule above, HTC’s second line of devices like the One Max and One Mini should be receiving Android 4.4.2 around this time as well, and HTC’s overseas devices like the Butterfly and Butterfly S will have to wait a little longer, most likely March or April for the Android 4.4.2 update.

While this was mostly expected, there are a few surprises in the document, including the fact that the Desire 601 will be receiving Android 4.4.2 and that the HTC One will be receiving an update to Sense 6.0 in “late summer/autumn”. This is probably the first time that Sense 6.0 has been mentioned, apart from rumours the HTC One 2 would be the first device with the new UI. While having the schedule is all well and good, LlabTooFer is quick to remind us that this schedule is provisional and can change at any time, so don’t get too disappointed if an update ends up being late. Well, not too disappointed anyway.

What do you think about this update schedule for HTC Devices: are there any surprises in there for you? Let us know what you think in the comments.
