The HTC Desire 601 smartphone from the Taiwanese company HTC is starting to receive a new update right now. This update brings two new features: the most recent version of the Android operating system (Android 4.4.2 KitKat), and the HTC Sense interface in its version of HTC Sense 5.5. At the moment, this new update is only available in Asian territory, but it is a matter of days before it begins to be available in the rest of the world as well.
The specific news of this new update are practically identical to what we received with the arrival of the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update of the HTC One Mini. Regarding the mobile interface, we will now see that both the HTC application icons and the operating system's own menus offer a renewed and modern look. These changes come both from Android 4.4.2 KitKat and from the manufacturer's own Sense 5.5 interface.
Technical innovations of this update for the HTC Desire 601 are identical to those that bring most updates from the operating system Android: improving the fluidity of the terminal, small increase in battery life and accounts summarized a performance improved.
In addition to the HTC Desire 601, it is also expected that in the coming weeks there will be more HTC terminals that will receive this same update. One such terminal is the HTC Butterfly, which is believed to receive the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update in a matter of days. Remember that the best way to check if we already have an update ready for download on our HTC mobile is to follow these steps:
- We enter the Settings application. This application appears in the list of mobile applications represented by a gear icon.
- Once inside, we look for the option " Phone information " and click on it.
- Now we only have to click on the option "System update " so that the mobile indicates the steps to follow in the event that there is an update available. Let us also remember that this procedure should only be carried out if our mobile has an autonomy of more than 70%.
We will be attentive to the arrival of Android 4.4.2 KitKat for the HTC Desire 601 belonging to the European territory. Of course, it is important to know that these types of updates usually arrive first at the terminals acquired freely, while users who have acquired the mobile under an operator must wait an additional time. Since the announcement of this update was through an official channel (a profile of Facebook for HTC in Asian territory), hopefully the announcement of the European update also occur officially in the time that this new file is ready for download.
