Leaked HTC Sense 5 screenshots suggest a leaner, cleaner skin

Did yesterday's uncertain glimpse at a [new HTC phone](http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/20/htc-m7-purportedly-spied-brandishing-sense-5-0/) leave you wanting? Then grab a tray and find a seat, because the right-hand image above comes from _XDA_ developer mdeejay, who claims to have a working port of the forthcoming Sense 5 skin. On the left, we've stuck up a similar [Sense 4+](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Sense4plus/) lockscreen to highlight how the new UI feels much leaner, cleaner and flatter -- following much the same trend as Android itself. The 3D ring pull is gone, for starters, and the time and weather widgets also have a calmer and less skeuomorphic feel, with what looks like a thinner font ([Roboto](http://www.engadget.com/tag/Roboto/) condensed?). These same widgets carry over to the apps screen, shown after the break (Sense 5 on the right), which in turn shows off fresh icons that persist with the minimalist flavor. Head over to the _XDA_ link below for the full screenshot buffet.
