It appears that AT&T is rolling out the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for the 2nd generation Moto X. The carrier had previously not provided a release date for this update so users were in the dark. The 2nd gen Moto X is one of Motorola’s best selling smartphones in the U.S. and AT&T being the major carrier that it is obviously plays host to a lot of those users.
The folks at PhoneArena have received a picture from a source who reportedly works at an AT&T retail store. Apparently the source would check every single day for the update and today he finally got it. The picture shows that this update comes in at 652.5MB.
Android 5.0 Lollipop brings a plethora of changes including some new features. Users will immediately notice the improved look and feel, courtesy of Material Design, other features include Lock Screen notifications, revamped “Recent Apps” screen and improved battery life through Project Volta.
Since it is a hefty update do keep in mind that you should be connected to a Wi-Fi network before downloading and should also have ample charge in the battery.
Like other carriers AT&T also releases major software updates in stages so it may take a couple of days for this update to go live across all regions.
