Why trust Greenbot
The HTC One M9 will come with a new version of Sense that packs plenty of customization features like themes, the ability to add/remove buttons from the navigation bar and more. It also comes with a context-based homescreen widget that recommends apps and other services to users depending on their location and the time of the day.
Even with a lighter version of TouchWiz and Google’s new Material Design in Lollipop, HTC’s Sense UI still offers the best UI experience possible among Android devices out there. The One M9 is going to be the first handset to ship with Sense 7.0, and is scheduled to be available in key markets by the end of March.
However, thanks to a couple of leaked Sense 7.0 based ROMs for the One M8 and One M7, we can now have a closer look at the new features that HTC has included in Sense 7.0.
