Nexus 5 To Get Android 5.1 Lollipop In The Form Of An OTA Update

Google, in recent times, had made available the factory images of the Android 5.1 Lollipop not only for developers, but also for enthusiasts as well in order to let them flash it on their devices. For those who happen to be rocking to the Nexus 5, you will be glad to know that the Android 5.1 Lollipop OTA (Over The Air ) update is now available.

Just how large would this upcoming update be in terms of its size? Well, we are looking at a file that weighs in at 220.7MB, which should not be too much of an issue when it comes to downloading it Over The Air, although some of us might prefer to settle for doing so with a Wi-Fi connection.

It must be said that this particular OTA update will be introduced for Nexus 5 devices in phases worldwide, with the most significant feature that will accompany the arrival of Android 5.1 Lollipop being Device Protection, which will ensure that your device remains locked even after a factory reset is performed on it. This means that only after the owner signs in, will the device be unlocked, now how about that for an additional level of security? Apart from that, HD Voice has also been activated in order to introduce an improvement to the overall voice call quality.
