HTC BlinkFeed integration experience in Android without Sense

In last week's international sites specifications HTC appeared first smartphone company , created on the platform MediaTek. 

The device was named Desire and 310 explicitly refers to the affordable segment. Considering how quickly smartphone disappeared so early it can not be called a planned appearance . However, recently surfaced again 310 Desire , HTC allegedly carried out on it in the integration testing BlinkFeed "naked » Android.

New screen captures as if on D310w ( one of the regional versions not yet announced Desire 310) , hit the network of Chinese social service Sina Weibo. 

 

They can see the interface is close to the standard Android, but having the desktop HTC BlinkFeed, was once an integral part of the firm shell Sense latest version. Author of "leak" says it's a confirmation of the Taiwanese corporation on porting applications to the latest news in the operating system without the shell.

We remind you that HTC BlinkFeed was presented in early 2013 at the launch of One. HTC see it as an important part of their ecosystem , a convenient way to not simply immersed in the Human Network constantly read the important news and events information from social networks. Over the past year , the Taiwanese updated several times BlinkFeed with Sense, adding the support of new sources and features requested by users .

However, the careful reader will notice that the pictures do not look quite significantly . The virtual keys navigation unit on two of them are standard for Android, on the other they are inspired by HTC and mimic those that recently " flowed " as part of the interface M8. May explain this difference suggested that the pictures are taken at different stages of implementation of firmware developments of the company. Incidentally , the presence of the on screen navbara says that Desire 310 (if he pictured ) stripped physical control unit , and therefore does not look identical to the 300 - th model , as might be expected from his " accidental announcement ."

However, it is not clear why even make BlinkFeed beyond Sense? Little hard to believe that even on devices for very poor markets HTC afford to drop completely from corporate identity and software shell , leaving only parts that they consider key . Especially hardware performance Desire 310 enough to work " cropped " version of Sense. New pictures though and gave food for thought , but left too many questions.
