Sense 6 UI needs about 500 MB for installation and will arrive on HTC One Mini devices running Android 4.4.2 KitKat.
As always the deployment of the Sense 6 update is done gradually meaning that you might not be able to download and install it right away. As soon as your HTC One Mini becomes eligible to receive the new OTA update you should receive a system message in the notification bar. Tap on the message and follow the on-screen guidance.
There might be cases when the system update notification fails to prompt users, so you might also perform a manual check by going to Settings -> About -> Software updates -> Check now.
