It's less bloated and playful than Samsung's TouchWiz, and none of the UI changes lead to any performance lag. The modern Sense UI has a sophisticated, no-nonsense appearance that fits well with the phone's hardware. The HTC One M8 ships with Android 4.4.2 KitKat, with HTC's new Sense 6 UI on top. These are the kinds of features we're seeing in a post-Moto X world, and I welcome them. But I think sensor-based shortcuts like these make for a more convenient smartphone experience. Taken as a whole, Motion Launch is a pretty simple set of new features. You can also jump straight to the camera, also from a sleeping state, by holding the phone in landscape and pressing the volume button. No sliding a green "answer" icon, then picking it up. Motion Launch also lets you answer a call just by lifting the One to your ear.
Motion Launch lets you jump to your home screen by sliding up on your sleeping phone's screen All of these gestures only work when you're holding the phone in portrait mode. Swipes left or right will take you to widgets or BlinkFeed (more on that in a minute). A swipe down will activate HTC's voice control for initiating a phone call. But you can also swipe up on the dimmed screen to jump straight to the home screen. Like LG's Knock-on, you can double-tap your sleeping One's screen to turn it on (this will take you to the lock screen). HTC has thrown in some new sensors that let you jump straight from a sleeping phone to wherever you want to go – without touching any physical buttons.
One of my favorite new features in the One M8 takes a little inspiration from rivals like the LG G2 and Moto X.

Android's Immersive Mode, though, does help out by letting you use the full 5-in screen in key areas like your image gallery, videos, and Google Play Books. So in most apps, the usable screen area won't be much different than it was on the OG One. HTC also replaced the M7's capacitive back and home keys with onscreen navigation buttons. The One's screen is a little bigger this time around (it's 5-in, compared to the 4.7-incher in last year's One). The screen is still 1080p, and looks just as good as last year's model
