Some rumors and leaked images about the HTC M7 and *apparently* the Sense 5 UI.
original story: (with screenshots) http://www.slashgear.com/htc-m7-and-sense-5-ui-leak-reveals-more-details-11264958/
CES 2013 may be winding down, but the news keeps on rolling. Today, a handful of screenshots have leaked that apparently show off HTC’s Sense 5 user interface for Android, which will run on the also rumored M7 that we’ve talked about in the past. The group of screenshots also comes with a picture of the UI running on an HTC phone which could possibly be the M7 itself.
This is technically the first actual photo of what may possibly be the HTC M7. However, it doesn’t show off much, other than the display and a little bit of the bezel. Then again, it looks like HTC will be bringing their polycarbonate design over from Windows Phone 8, so we’ll know what to expect slightly, given those circumstances.
The screenshots show a little bit of what to expect out of Sense 5, and it’s definitely been given a slight redesign. However, for those wishing that the new HTC Sense UI will someday be closer to stock Android, we can’t see that happening anytime soon, since the company loves its Sense interface and many users love it right back.
However, the screenshots hint at a little bit of details on the hardware of the M7. We still see the legacy menu button in the screenshots, which suggest that the M7 will come with the same three capacitive touch buttons just like the HTC One series, with a dedicated on-screen menu button when needed. Overall, though, the Sense 5 UI looks bit a cleaner and simpler than Sense 4.x.
As far as other rumors go for the M7, we’re looking at a 4.7-inch 1080p display with a 1.7GHz quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM. There’s also supposedly going to be 32GB of internal storage, a 13MP f/2.0 rear camera, 2MP front-facing camera, and a 2300mAh battery to power it all.

If HTC sticks with their new jellybean upgrade pattern of all devices getting the same sense, yes
If not? Then no

Pretty sure we will. Our hardware definitely will support it. Plus it's Verizon's premium htc device.... Now the timetable for the update... Well, that could be a while.

HTC M7
Why of why it's not 5-inch 1080p screen smartphone? Kind of bummer. I also thought this one is gonna be the Tegra4-armed device.
---------- Post added at 03:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 AM ----------
I'm wondering is the 13MP camera sensor has Exmor technology on it? If so, then it's must be from Sony, right? Just like on Lenovo IdeaPhone K900.
You know, to me the m7 isn't that much of an upgrade. I love my DNA. 8 to 13 mp for my phone display isn't a game changer in my mind. The increased storage and slightly faster cpu aren't either. And you lose screen size.

I have no doubt we will see this on our phone ~eventually~, I know devs will have it on our DNA before HTC does, IF they do.
I am coming from the ReZound where I had Sense 4, something that was never intended to be on it, and before that, the HTC Droid Inc, which had AOKP ICS
I actually really hope Sense5 doesn't look like this, because they need to start going WITH the times and not against it. I still can't believe they retain their fat statusbar with the lame grey to black gradient >_< what is this, sense 2???
Don't really care for Sense 5, I'm holding out for Viper Rom or an aokp-based Rom.
tks
M7 will be a good phone no doubt...but I like my 5 inch 1080p screen too much.
I can't wait to see what phones come out this year that will tempt me to sell my DNA.
If sense 5 looks radically different don't count on it. Vzw doesn't want the average customer that buys it and doesn't tinker to have to experience a forced major UI change. It confuses the average consumer whether its for the good or bad. Just my $.02

So, what do we think? It's probably real because EVleaks has been spot on with all their previous leaks of HTC's devices. I kind of like it and it's nice to see HTC taking a new design approach. The whole soft edged rectangle thing was getting a bit stale. It will be really cool if the display is edge-to-edge horizontally making it ultra-thin in its class. I give them credit for trying something different.

That's what I was referring to. The Rezound not getting 4.0 officially. It was a big change even one for the better kept from the consumer.

Personally I'm hoping that *AT LEAST* in a new version of Sense, that they make the UI proportionate... I run the DPI at 320 and when I flashed a rom that went back to 480 DPI, God it was ugly! Haha. Having the Digital Dreams rom, at 320 DPI... the phone truly looks beautiful and futuristic as far as the UI goes, not including the hardware itself is gorgeous.

Now i doubt we see this version of sense as stated in the article its likely to be first seen on the new phones.....So itll likely be Sense 3.6 for us and thats it, and the Dev's will bring us greatness soon as those devices hit the streets. Though ill likely be getting one of those devices anyway. lol

oh haha i guess i should've specified i dont want it on my 3d that doesnt make much sense to have the buttons when there are 4 perfect ones right below. i like how on the galaxy nexus the screen is extra tall so that the buttons can be there without stealing any screen space that would normally be there but when u want it like for video playback or who knows what the buttons can go away and now u got this super giant screen. from what that article says it sounds like htc isnt going to be implementing that on future devices which i hope changes.

Great stuff!
Saw 3.6 and was actually quite impressed with the polish and hints of ICS menus. But now reading this just makes its so much better.
HTC's Sense was the best skin on Android back then (well, still is from other manufacturers) and that's when they wanted to stand out and make the android experience a better one. In the middle they kind of stagnated, didn't improve it much but by this line on Androidandme site:
If you think that custom skins are too intrusive, we’re sure you’ll be pleased to hear that HTC Sense 4.0 is a “step in the right direction".

Looks like they are going back to improving on what android has to offer, and to improve on the eye candy of ICS, well it'll be immense (ok maybe not immense, that's just my excitement levels going up lol)

Well some of the Sensation guys seem to feel overly confident about devices getting updated to Sense 4.0....stating that the "The Incredible S, Desire S, Desire HD..." all got sense updates recently...
me personally i think we only see it if/when a dev ports it. I think this update to ICS will be the last one we get unless google releases a big bug update to ICS thats important before the end of the year...

I was kinda under the impression that the GS2 (soon to be replaced by Nexus) and iPhone were Sprint's flagship phones... I doubt we'll get Sense 4.0 simply because it will probably be on some hot new Sprint device and they want you to go out and buy it so that you can experience Sense 4.0

It looks like the bezel is larger on one side of the tablet than the other. The back seems to be made of polycarbonate and it shares some of the HTC One X design language with rounded curves all around.
The device is definitely an Android tablet, but it brings some minor differences in the UI, which are definitely expected from HTC. One thing we still can’t understand is why they’ve set both the front facing camera and the back camera at the bottom of the device. The back camera doesn’t matter where it’s placed, but the front camera is set where the bezel is, which seems awkward. We’re still not sure if this is just an early prototype, a promo, or just HTC trying different things out. One thing is certain, we are waiting to see at least one HTC Tablet at IFA, and whether it’s this unique device or something else, let’s hope they don’t disappoint.

Looks kinda neat. Don't wreck it with Sense.
HTC is certainly capable of building good hardware, but incapable of marketing , hitting price points or delivering a proper UI experience.
Notice no stylus.
I expect it will be a Sense 4 toting giant version of the HTC One X al-la Flyer being a giant Thunderbolt . No stylus. Probably will have 4g/LTE and price around $499, so will be targeted to sell at cell carriers as a high end device with hefty subsidies to get the price down on contract. But I hope I'm wrong and they actually produce a marketable device.
HTC really needs to dump Sense and update their UI skin. Sense is really dragging them down now, but I really doubt they will do that.
where is the scribe
doesn't look as if it is using the scribe technology. if not then it wouldn't necessarily be consideredas a successor to the flyer/jetstream
They ****ed up my Flyer and they expect me to buy another one? NEVER!
Fake/Prototype
Tablet will be DOA with HTC's awesome (not) history of supporting their tablets with software updates. Regardless of how it looks or the specs, I'll never buy another HTC tablet again.

The photos looks like promotional shots, and a little too nice for a prototype or fakes.
Promotional renders of products by Samsung were "leaked" just before the devices were unveiled at the IFA in Germany. Seems pretty plausible that HTC is doing the same.

A new 10" tablet by HTC has been rumored for a while. It would be no great surprise to see it unveiled soon.
Too bad if it's 10" then :/
Looks pretty big & ugly to me... I love my Flyer, and on Dexter_nlb's JB build, I'm waiting a little longer on the N7...

It's obviously fake. HTC will release a Flyer successor and they can't be that dumb to not include the Scribe technology. After all, they were the first to tackle this segment.
It looks fake to me.
Also wondering why they put the camera on the bottom of the screen :S Think this is not practical at all!

How is it obvious? Most "leaked" fakes are renders, not promo shots like this of the device actually being used. Unless you're some expert at spotting Photochop jobs (I certainly am not), I don't see how you can come to such a quick conclusion.
And who is to say this device (if real) doesn't include the scribe/stylus feature. Just because this handful of photos doesn't show it, doesn't mean automatically mean its absent.
I think it's fake and here are my reasons:
1. In one of the photos, the alleged tablet has the iPad wallpaper. Why would HTC advertise the tablet with the iPad wallpaper?
2. In another photo, the HTC logo is not centered, while in all others it's centered.
3. Where is Sense UI? The UI seems kind of stock to me, and HTC is all about Sense. They wouldn't ditch it on their tablet comeback.
But then again, it's only my opinion.

Good catches. And makes a lot more sense than just saying "obviously fake" without any explanation. So thanks for clarifying.
Didn't notice the iPad wallpaper, since I don't use Apple products; and personally couldn't even make out the HTC logo on the other photo. I also noticed the more AOSP look, which made me think that maybe HTC is trying something different on this round of tablets. But this would be very much out of character for HTC at this point, and fake is a plausible explanation.
Just seems like a lot of trouble to make what looks like a physical mockup (if even just a shell) to create some false buzz. Makes me think the pics themselves are representative of some real tablet (even if not HTC), and some other jackhole Photochopped the HTC logos on.
I didn't catch the wallpaper either (I don't use/have Apple products). I read about the new HTC tablet on a website and someone left a comment about the wallpaper. That's how I realized

Don't have time to Embed, but here's a hands on with the One X+
looking froward to jelly bean for our hox if it runs as smooth as it looks on there
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6348/...official-17-ghz-ap37-tegra-3-64-gb-of-storage
Interestingly X+ and X are both having the same dimensions.
Which get me really wondering if we can use X+ battery instead of ours.
Other things I find interesting is the front camera and glonass support.
Don't know how it would be possible to use the One X+ battery in the One X since the battery is non removable...
The front camera looks more flush with the surface of the phone. Not a bad call, as the recessed front camera on the One X tends to gather dust very easily.
Other than that, not a big fan of the red accents. I like the gun grey color of the One X better than the all-black OX+. Just saying
Featuring a 1.7 GHz quad-core NVIDIA® Tegra® 3 AP37 processor and 64GB of internal storage, the HTC One™ X+ LTE version is up to 67% faster than the HTC One™ X1 LTE, making the HTC One™ X+ the best rated Android phone on the market.
In addition to its increased performance speeds, the HTC One™ X+ introduces extended performance with the inclusion of a 2100 mAh battery, giving you up to 50% (6 hours) more talk time, and longer to browse the web and enjoy your favorite music and videos2.

Why are they comparing it to the One X LTE? I highly doubt if its an LTE compatible phone. Because the original Tegra T30 on the international One X didn't support LTE which is why they switched to Krait for the US model.

Main difference seems to be a 200Mhz bump in clock speeds and better memory bandwidth. Also, the performance figures also seem a bit suspect because the US One X (S4) was faster than the International One X(T30) and based on specs, this (T33) should be marginally faster than the International One X, so no reason why it should be much faster than the One X LTE(S4).
Okay read the anandtech article, its mentioned over there:
The non-LTE One X+ includes the same GSM/EDGE and WCDMA bands as the previous international version (850/900/1900/2100 MHz for WCDMA, 850/900/1800/1900 MHz for GSM/EDGE) and of course the same HSPA+ capabilities since it includes the same Intel XMM6260 baseband. I don't have any word at the moment on what LTE bands will be supported on the One X+ with LTE, but with MDM9215 and possibly WTR1605 we could see more than the One XL. Qualcomm's MSM8960 SoC contains the same IP block that's inside MDM9215 and is still 28nm. It's interesting to see the One X+ using this combination as it may finally put to rest the talk of Tegra 3 being "incompatible" with LTE.

Great, HTC definitely wants to get back into the game. But one thing, HTC, please don't discontinue support for our phones such as future OS updates.

Don't know how it would be possible to use the One X+ battery in the One X since the battery is non removable...
The front camera looks more flush with the surface of the phone. Not a bad call, as the recessed front camera on the One X tends to gather dust very easily.
Other than that, not a big fan of the red accents. I like the gun grey color of the One X better than the all-black OX+. Just saying

Oh boy, I just found they added an internal amplifier inside X+. Now that's with the glonass support & new battery making it hard for me not to get the new X+.
Regarding the battery, you can always open your phone after the warranty is all over and replace it yourself.

Point taken. I just don't feel brave enough to attempt that kind of surgery.
Bah, I'll console myself with the fact that a lot of the Sense refinements should be coming to the One X anyway. Too bad for the larger battery...
The phone does look very nice! I would love one but it's not a massive change from the one x.

You could always buy the X+ battery* and go to any mobile shop and make them replacing it for a small fee.
*Giving that X+ battery will works with One X.
Hopefully, I get the time to send my phone for warranty as I am suffering from the yellow screen + little problem with GPS. Then, I'll probably will consider replacing my battery.
*Sigh*, I still haven't unlocked my boot loader ,yet.
so i assume the One X roms won't work with the One X+ ?
hopefully it's easy to port them progress espacially for AOSP for the One X+
I dont think that the X+ battery will be available anywhere besides HTC Service as this is not a replaceable battery which you could buy anywhere.
Having this is mind I guess that only HTC Service could do the needed surgery to replace the old battery with the X+ one.
I have seriously doubt that they will accept to do so even if you offer to pay the amount of money needed.
On a side note it makes me wonder why didnt they equiped the HOX with this new battery in the first place???
As I remember they mumbled something like dimensions, the phone beeing thin etc etc but the dimensions of X+ are the same.
I think this is the type of behaviour that is sending people over to Samsung....
Imagine that a medium to low price device Samsung Galaxy ACE 2 will be getting jelly bean and we have to beg for it....
Never mind the battery, what about the rear cover? At least with the one x+ they seem to of given the rear camera lens a bit of protection!
The only thing that's making me jealous is the internal amplifier. With slim bean, my phone flies as it is.
I think this upgrade was necessary, especially since iPhone 5 is available now and people who wanted a 64gig device could not consider HOX as an option. Well now they can. And with this, HTC beats everything else as far as specs go.
I really like that deep black exterior. But that red ring around the camera looks ugly IMO. wonder if this new housing can be fitted on top of our HOXs.
The amp is only for the external speaker, it comes only as black and the camera lens is indeed recessed
new features in Sense 4+
Powersave profile!
and it is really called Sense 4+
we should be getting all the features of Sense 4+ as confirmed by HTC's press release
Ah yes! I've been waiting for this, I hope these Tmobile rumors are true, I would really love to own this phone!

I'm waiting first real test. Maybe my next phone
The launch of the HTC One yesterday reassured me that I didn't make a big mistake getting the HOX+ last month instead of holding onto my old Galaxy Nexus for a little longer and waiting to get the HTC One.
Based on the initial benchmarks of the HTC One, the HOX+ is still a solid little performer in comparison.

HTC One X+ (Mine)
Definitely holding onto the HOX+ until later this year/early next year to see what the X-Phone brings to the table and/or next Nexus phone (hopefully with AT&T LTE support).
I couldn't agree more. The One may be more powerful, but that's really about it. It has a dumb button layout and it frankly isn't as pretty of a device. The 1080p screen will make no difference unless you've got the phone right to your face, but will eat up the battery quicker. And for the Sense fans, the One X+ is probably going to get Sense 5 in a few months anyway.
Already decided I'm selling my hox+ for the one. I love the look, love that it has a premium design and build. I also love the fact that it has a more powerful and most importantly more efficient processor with an even larger battery, I'll be glad to get rid of this tegra 3 phone. Everything else announced for the one is just a bonus.

I disagree. I think this phone is going to be completely forgotten by ATT and HTC. It has been a sales failure in every respect, simply because HTC does not market their products in the US at all anymore. I doubt you will every see any updates to this phone whatsoever.

I can guarantee you that the HTC one will be highly marketed across all countries

I know no reason why I should sell my HOX+ for a HTC One.
Yes, better hardware etc.
But I think the HOX+ is an awesome phone.
I love it since I have it.
Easy to root, easy to flash and easy to recover.
So I don't want to change it.

So you're saying the HOX+ doesn't have a premium design and build, really? And you've also determined this by pictures and videos posted online of the HTC One, having never personally held it?
I agree with you on the power efficiency, but that's about it.
Don't get me wrong the HOX+ is a nice phone, but when you compare metal vs plastic, metal easily wins. Finally an amazing top of the line Android phone with the quality of an Apple product.
As for how it feels in the hand I haven't read one hands on review that said it didn't feel wonderful in their hands.

It's also AT&T's job to market the devices they sell. For whatever reason they think the HOX+ just going to magically sell itself.
Its all purely subjective, I prefer to keep this device since I just bought it recently until the HTC one is cheaper.
Slithered from my HTC One X+
Of course HTC one would win almost in every aspect then HOX+ because it is HTC's brand new flagship phone for 2013. We can judge the phone when Samsung unveiled their SGS4.
Until then, like last year, buyer will have their honeymoon with HTC.
I personally would wait till SGS4 come or even Nexus 5 because I dont want to buy a phone without "equal challenger" to be compared :laugh::laugh:
Something to consider here is the button layout - since there is no more menu button, that ugly black bar for the soft menu button will always be around in old apps.

I wouldn't worry about that, i might be wrong but that bottom section is an extension of the touch screen. So they should be able to map a new key in the center when the HTC logo is for a menu button
Slithered from my HTC One X+
Coming from IOS where the screen is small and the iPhone4 is slower the HOX + is a solid upgrade for me even if it charges slow..
That New One looks crazy but i wont be upgrading any time soon.
Having the HTC Legend in the past, I can't freaking wait to get rid of my One X+ for the HTC One just because of its aluminum cover (& of course better battery life, & a few other small upgrades).
My One X+ is a good phone, I can't complain much except the battery is still weak in my opinion, even though I dont play games on my phone.
& the greenish of picture quality from this One X+ is a shame!!!
Never get excited about ANY phone until this HTC One. Can't wait!!!
besides the aluminum cover & better battery life, this http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one-review-889p4.php is more than enough reason to trade in.
AW: Zero Regrets Getting HOX+ Over HTC One

If yes than there is no real reason for me to change phones
Sent from my HTC One X+ using xda premium
Its a quadcore yes it is gonna get hot when you get it going my question is the alluminum case dose it retain heat worse than our one x + because metal is a better conductor tham the rubbery material ours is made of
It would be funny if they all overheat worse than ours I donno what HTC did but metal has to get hot and I can barley touch my rubbery phone when it gets to hot specially on my ear
Sent from my HTC One X+ using XDA Premium HD app
I'd be worried that the "improved battery" in the One, at least by mAh standards, will be offset by what I'm sure is a VERY power-hungry 1080p display when compared with our HOX+ 720p one.
Moving on to a new device. Thanks Lloir and Maxwen for some nice AOSP action
This beast will be my next phone. The DNA will be passed to my oldest daughter. She'll benefit from all the time it's taken me to unlock, root, s-off, etc and pick up a great device while I get the newest toy! :good:

I agree that EVLeaks has been reliable but the phone in their pics looks like it has a display much larger than 4.99". The phone in the pic looks as big as the N2. That is unless Samsung's only counting usable space vs. including what's dedicated to navigation. If that's it, it certainly doesn't have a lot of personality but I guess when the display is 95% of the front of the phone there's not a lot to work with.
Why is this even in the DNA section?

Wrong forum.
Samsung's build quality doesn't even remotely compare to HTC anyway. And Sense is a million times more attractive than any skin Samsung has developed. So, yawn. Post this in an S3 thread.
How is this possibly the wrong forum? Haters are gonna hate. I've seen multiple thread in here about the HTC One/M7, gaming performance, the Playstation 4, etc, etc., but two of the first four replies say it's the wrong forum? Please. This is general as in generally, anything in reason can be discussed.
Now to respond to the intelligent responses- the aspect ratio and the rumored 4.99" screen size are just rumors. The benchmark that was posted is from an unreleased model number and may never see the day of light. The Note 2 is extremely popular and it makes sense to meld the two lines without a complete merge. This looks like an improved N2 without a pen. Besides, how can the aspect ratio be wrong if the only quasi-official spec on the screen is "full HD?"
It's either a great render or it's legit; look at the camera lens size compared to the N2 and S3: http://versusio.com/en/samsung-galaxy-note-2-vs-samsung-galaxy-s3

Haha.. Because it says "Droid DNA General" at the top, and you are talking about a phone that is not only NOT a Droid DNA, but it isn't even made by the same manufacturer. How is it even remotely the correct forum? Posts about the One/M7 are at least understandable because they are also HTC, and the most recent follow-up to the Droid DNA, and there is not yet a forum dedicated to the One/M7. As I said, your post would be more appropriate in the S3 forum. The only purpose behind posting in this one is to stir up the "haters" to which you refer.

Newer processor. Likely an Exynos 5 octo-core everywhere but the US..... where it will have a snapdragon 600 (same processor as the HTC One) due to US carriers preference of Qualcomm. I could see the US variants getting bumped up to 4GB of RAM.
That being said...... I'll stick with my DNA.
Well this processor talk is not really my cup of tea, well and don't much about it but DNA is fast enough for me and I'm good. How come the op didn't get this excited over the m7. It has the same specs but camera.
Processor may be good but they seriously need to get away from crapoled screens. Figured they would have. And the device in the picture looks to be WAY bigger than 5 inches. It looks Note 2 sized. If that is the case, no dice.

Processor will most likely be a little faster. Not much improvement really. The s4 will probrably have more developer support if your into that kind of thing. Removable battery to upgrade to extended battery or replace the battery if needed.

Merging the lines doesn't make sense. It looks exactly like the note 2. If they wanted to look slow they make a note 5.0... Also full hd means it's going to be 1080p which is a 16:9 aspect ratio. Which it does not have. It's either a ****ty render or a soon to be failed phone. And get ready for the " is that the note 2" question... Also the octa processor has eight cores but only 4 used at once. It has 4 a15 cores and 4a7 cores i believe. The a7 are for lower priority tasks. This is Samsung's attempt to conserve power. But they mislead consumers alot with saying eight cores. I hope the s4 looks like the s3 only a tiny bit bigger at most. Merging with the note looks is retarded

The M7 was a minor refresh to the DNA. It still has the same storage problems and they actually went down in screen size. In these days of them making 60 and 90" HDTVs, HTC is heading in the wrong direction. The M7's camera also went in reverse in camera megapixels, but many are reporting excellent image quality with the new technology it's using. Lastly, even though the battery life on the DNA has been surprisingly good, I like being able to pull my battery if needed for dev stuff and throw in a spare when away from juice for a while.
The main reason I'm excited for this phone is I know the AOKP ROM will be on it in about two weeks after release. I used it on my GNex and my S3 and will my S4. The DNA has been a great phone (especially with Viper on it) while I waited for the S4, but I always knew it was a transitional device for me.

You're kind of right. Octa is 4+4, a quad-core A7 teamed with a quad-core A15. It's the first commercial implementation of ARM's new big.LITTLE design which has been in development for two years. This explains Octa (big.LITTLE) if anyone's interested.

As for the EVLeak pics, they're fake. It was a place holder mock-up done by Expansys in preparation for the SGS4 launch. Too bad, the design in those pics would definitely be good for HTC.
"But the @evleaks tweets were quickly discredited after Expansys said that the diagrams that had been tweeted actually came from its own site - and that they were its artists' impressions of what a Galaxy S4 might look like, rather than actual pictures."
HTC is way better
