These are the htc mobiles that would already be ready to update to android 5.1 lollipop

The Taiwanese company HTC is also preparing for the landing of the Android 5.1 Lollipop update. Apparently, HTC could have the Android 5.1 Lollipop update ready at the moment, and its distribution will be accompanied by the most recent version of Sense 7 (the same version as the HTC One M9) of the Sense UI customization layer. As a leak has revealed, phones such as the HTC Desire Eye or the HTC Butterfly 2 are candidates to receive the Android 5.1 update very soon.

Apparently, the first HTC phones to receive the Android 5.1 Lollipop update (along with Sense 7) could be the HTC One M8, the HTC One E8, the HTC One M8s, the HTC Desire Eye, the HTC Desire 820 and the HTC Butterfly 2. For European users, the mobiles on this list whose owners have to be vigilant in the coming months for the arrival of the Android 5.1 update include the One M8, the One M8s, the Desire Eye and the Desire 820; heOne E8 and the Butterfly 2, meanwhile, are mobiles aimed mainly at the Asian market.

Of course, it is important to clarify that the origin of this leak takes place in the Twitter account of @LlabTooFeR , a user who - despite not having any official support from HTC - has been reporting for months about Lollipop updates for mobiles of this brand. And what does the Taiwanese company HTC have to say about it? From its official account it has been confirmed that, at least in the case of the HTC One M8, the Android 5.1 Lollipop update will begin to be distributed as of August.

And what about the rest of HTC smartphones ? The fact that they do not appear in this list does not necessarily mean that they will not be updated to Lollipop, although the rumors about it are not encouraging at all. On the one hand, there are rumors that indicate that the HTC One Mini 2 (presented during 2014) will not be updated to Lollipop, and the rumors that surround the HTC One M7 (presented in 2013) indicate that this terminal will not be updated to the Android 5.1 Lollipop version (even though its Google Play variant has been updated to Android 5.1).

In short, the outlook for updates to the latest version of Lollipop on HTC is currently somewhat uncertain. If we stick to the rumors, from the month of August we should begin to attend the first phases of distribution of Android 5.1 Lollipop among users. In the case of mobiles from this manufacturer, the process to download an official operating system update is as simple as entering the Settings application, accessing the “ About phone ” section and clicking on the “ Software updates ” option.
