Technically all the Android powered devices capable of running of Android Gingerbread will be able to run Android 4.0 ICS but Practically all devices may not give an overall good user experience . So all the manufactures are reviewing ICS on their devices to check the user experience and will release the latest OS according to the results.
HTC's list of devices that will surely get ICS :
* HTC Sensation (XL,XE,Original)
* HTC EVO 3D
* HTC Incredible S
* HTC Desire HD
* HTC Flyer
* HTC Rhyme
* HTC Desire S
Update (1) : No ETA's as yet. But may take 2-4 months because of the integration of Sense UI. HTC is definitely making every effort to provide update to most of the phones. Testing is under process. Desire Z and Salsa is going out of the list ,usability issues.
Update (2) : The phones exclusively on carriers such as HTC Amaze 4G,Thunderbolt,etc. will receive the update late.
Update (3) : New devices,i.e,Released after May 2011 will receive the updates prior to the old phones like Desire HD .
Update (4) : Google officially throws out Nexus One out of ICS list .
I updated a new post earlier about this .Forgot to edit this one. Link: https://plus.google.com/105502178297258827378/posts/6ev33ch3xHi

- I heard that ICS wont be on Desire S, Sense 3.5 only. Is it true?Jan 29, 2012
- I have the the HTC Vision ( Desire Z ) .... will the Vision get an upgrade ?Jan 29, 2012
- Ah, we want an update for Desire Z. bcoz it's the only HTC smartphone with "hard" keyboard. It's also has the same hardware with DHD.Mar 24, 2012
- Come on guys ... dont forget the update for the HTC Desire Z ( Vision )Apr 12, 2012
- Please, do not forget about us :-( (Desire Z)Apr 19, 2012
- I understand that HTC Desire Z with keyboard may be headache due ICS update.
But please think again about ICS update for Desire Z, it is last HTC QWERTY phone in Europe!
Otherwise HTC lose last loyal customers which required QWERTY, because no new QWERTY model is planned (confirmed information from HTC support).
I will pay 1.5x more for Android phone with QWERTY compared to some actual CPU/RAM/HW phone without QWERTY, but nothing available on the market...
New hole in the market, please help! :)Jul 13, 2012
