More HTC One M7 owners in UK get updated to Sense 6
If you’re reading this from the UK, and you have a 2013 HTC One M7, then keep reading – we’ve got good news for you. If your HTC One M7 is either the unlocked version, the O2 carrier version, or the Three carrier version, you can start hitting your software update button right away to begin downloading your Sense 6 update. According to HTC’s update status page for the UK, all three versions of the device are receiving this update over the air right now.
The Vodafone and EE versions of the HTC One M7 are both still in the integration phase, so unfortunately those customers will have to wait a little bit longer.
Interestingly enough, it appears that HTC is updating its unlocked versions of the device region by region, as the US version was already updated some time ago.
To recap, here’s what’s new with Sense 6:
