Android 5.0 L, Android Update "Lollipop" Confirmed, Release Updates for Nexus and other Smartphone Users

Along with Nexus 9 tablet and Nexus 6 smartphone, Google recently confirmed their recent Android 5.0, also called the "Lollipop". This is the biggest Android update to date, and Android users can expect it to come up anytime within the next few weeks. Android fans have been waiting for this update for a while now, since they were already told that the latest Android update will bring a major visual upgrade. For the meantime, here are the release updates.

Lollipop became official on October 15, and it will be available first on Nexus 9. The phablet can be pre-ordered now, but you can wait until November 3, as it will be officially released. Nexus 6 will follow a few weeks after that, with pre-orders starting soon, or you can wait for its mid-November release.

Those with previous Nexus devices will get the Android update over-the-air around November 3, but only for devices Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 Wi-Fi versions.

The rest should wait a little longer, including Nexus 5 and Nexus 4. Google Play Edition devices should also get the update soon enough. Motorola announced that selected Moto X, Moto G, Moto E, Droid Ultra, Droid Maxx, and Droid Mini should get the update in a few months. HTC announced that HTC One, including the M8 will get the update within three months of its release. Samsung Galaxy S5 and Note 4 will also get the update around the end of this year. LG's original G2, G Pro, G2 Pro, and G3 might get the software update too. Sony also announced that selected Z series and tablets will also get the Lollipop update after its release. Yet, wait for the official announcements, as these dates can change.

Google announced their "Lollipop" at their June event, as in their Google I/O conference. The Lollipop was previously codenamed Android L, and was already rumored to come with a 64-bit processor support plus a better battery life. Google is surely against Apple's iOS on this one. Now, we just have to wait for the official release of the Android Lollipop.

For now, you can get the Android Lollipop developer preview available for free. You just have to download it here.
