Android 6.0 Marshmallow is coming near to HTC One E9+, One E9 and One E8 smartphones in the first quarter of 2016. The update comes with the native key features developed by Google, plus more exciting improvements brought by HTC's own Sense 7.0 user interface.
HTC One E9+, One E9 and One E8 smartphones are lucky enough to be enlisted in the Taiwanese giant's Marshmallow list to definitely receive the Sense 7.0 UI on top the new build's features and enhancements. The One E series of HTC has been hugely lauded in the tech community for its mid-range price with high-end specs.

First released in May 2015 with Sense 7.0 UI, One E9+ smartphones are slated to skip the Android 5.1 Lollipop update to pave the way for Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
