Not sure how I feel about whatever the **** as that the top of that. Sense 5.5 actual looks really nice and includes things like white icons, transparent navigation (Looks better then stock) and overall looks pleasant and I am looking to maybe switch but if it turns out to have some weird finger print sensor or another random camera I'm not 100% sure.

If it's a finger print scanner it's in a weird place, but you realise you don't have it use it, right? :p

Highly unlikely it is, but if it's another camera, it might be adding 3D (though you'd expect both lenses to be the same size)?

Looking...the same...

I have to agree with this. But at the same time it does look more refined, that's a good deal less bezel so size should be similiar to the HO.

Seems they're going for the transpancy look for Sense 6... I like transparancy :D.

But it look so UGLY hahaha. If it causes better camera performance I wouldn't mind, but if it is some stupid finger print sensor that :(

why change a stunning design too much?

less bezel = refinement.

This, and it gives them more time to focus on the software, and the camera. The design is the one thing they got stop on with the One outside of the huge bezel. I wouldn't change the design either, everyone else in the android space really has to catch up.

Also I wonder what they well call this, HTC TWO :P, or One 2 which sounds stupid.
 
Shame it uses on screen buttons Its just a waste of screen hate them, looking like my options are getting less and less now.
 
^ I assume swiping down/up from the top removes the on screen buttons, like many new apps/games. There's no need for physical/capacitive buttons if your running the latest version of Android these days.

Shame those pics are fake. They're too sensible, HTC are bound to mess something up. :D

I love the physical home button on the Samsung S3. I think it's absolutely brilliant
 
To be fair though I'd like that design! if thats how the One looked it would be perfect, One of my only dislikes with the One is the buttons & physical buttons like on Samsung phones just need to die already.

I agree, and with 4.4 Android is finally really taking good advantage of the on screen buttons. Apps finally go properly full screen and you have a nice swipe up to bring your buttons and so on. Moreover with the One design of dual speakers it is already pretty tall, so removing the buttons well give it a lot of extra space/ or make it smaller.

I'm liking how Sense 5.5 looks and this is looking like a phone I can switch to from the N5.

I could get onboard with that, Sense is looking a less crazy and toned down. I also like that they are adopting a lot of things from 4.4 including white icons, the transparency (Which I like better on sense then stock). I wish they wouldn't change the on screen buttons, they look worse then stock.

Yes me too, if HTC carry on the look throughout their software then the sequel to the HTC One will be a very attractive proposition.

HOWEVER as I've said many times before HTC really needs to sort out their QC in terms of build quality and their awful camera software algorithms which has plagued and is still plaguing many users with that god awful pink screen issue.

Two of the main reasons I ditched the HTC One as soon as I could.
