HTC has updated its high-end smartphones, the One M8 and the One M7, to Android Lollipop. It had also promised that it will update all its One series of smartphones to the latest version of Android, however there was no mention about Desire series of mid-range smartphones.
Now, HTC ROM developer LlabTooFeR has stated that the Desire 816 will receive Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update in April. However, it is still not clear whether the mid-range smartphone, which debuted with Android 4.4 KitKat and Sense 6 UI, will receive Sense 7 UI with the update.
According to us, the HTC Desire 820 series as well as HTC Desire EYE will receive Android 5.0 Lollipop updates since their hardware specifications are better than that of the Desire 816.
