OS Version & UI Design[edit | edit source]
The Desire originally shipped with Android 2.1, however it has since been updated to Android 2.2. It was announced that it will be upgraded to Android 2.3 in May or June 2011.[1]
Like most HTC Android Phones, the HTC Desire ships with the HTC Sense UI, which has been highly praised by critics across the globe. However, due to the Desire' sharing largely the same hardware as the Nexus One, an active developer community has sprung up around it, notably including a dedicated version of CyanogenMod.
