Moto X (2nd Gen) will be 1st phone to get Android 5.0 Lollipop

Guess who just beat Google to its own update? Motorola has pushed out the Android 5.0 Lollipopupdate to its MotoX (2nd Gen) smartphone. The maker of the Nexus 6 was also first off the mark to announce the Lollipop update for its devices. The company has given the updates to its ‘Soak Test’ users, bringing all the features of Lollipop to its newest flagship smartphone. 

Motorola has already announced the Lollipop update for its Moto X (2nd Gen and 1st Gen), Moto G (2nd Gen and 1st Gen), Moto E and some Droid series smartphones. In addition, the Droid Turbo, or the Moto Maxx, as it is known in its international avataar, is also sure to get the update to the new version.

Currently, the company has sent out updates to the ‘Pure’ edition of the new Moto X. This is an unlocked version of the device. In addition, the update is currently available to users who had signed up for the Motorola Feedback Network and opted in to its ‘Soak Test’ initiative. The company is presumably using this to test out the update before sending it out to all its users. Below is a video of the Moto X (2nd Gen) running Lollipop, published by Droid Life on YouTube.
