HTC Sense 2.1 Rolling Out Some New Features
By Kyle on February 16, 2010 at 11:31 pm

Today HTC announced a few new phones. Some of which have Android 2.1 with Sense UI. So far there is not much news on the new additions. What we do know is that there is a new widget called Friend Stream. It aggregrates all of your social networks live on your homescreen.

Speaking of homescreens, you can now pinch on the homescreen to see all of your homescreens at once. This is a much faster what to switch between screens than scrolling past them all.

The Sprint Hero should be expecting this update over the air soon. Sprint just tweeted that it will be updated in early Q2.

It looks like the HTC Magic (T-Mobile myTouch 3G) will be getting a free UI uprade to the Hero’s Sense UI. It will run just as well on the Magic as it did on the Hero since it has the same internals. If this is all true and T-Mobile goes along with the upgrade, then this could be the first phone with Sense UI in the United States. It is not clear though whether this upgrade will be free or around $46. Stay tuned for further updates.
