Motorola Begins Rollout of Android 5.0 Lollipop

Motorola Begins Rollout of Android 5.0 Lollipop

Motorola has done a good job with keeping their devices updated. The fact that they don't ship dozens of different devices and use software that is close to what would be called stock Android certainly helps with this. Today Motorola has put up a posting on their blog which announces the beginning of their Android Lollipop rollout for their new Moto X and Moto G. Currently the update is rolling out in phases to the following three versions of those devices:

  • Moto X (2nd Gen.) Pure Edition
  • Moto G (2nd Gen.) US GSM 
  • Moto G (2nd Gen.) Global GSM retail versions sold in the US

The source for Lollipop was released only a week ago, and so this is a very good turnaround time from Motorola. There's no information about the original Moto X, Moto G, and Moto E, so we'll have to wait and see how those fit into Motorola's software support roadmap.
