Sprint Releases Android 5.1 For Moto X 2013

Motorola came out with the Moto X back in 2013 and really showed the market that it could make a relatively cheap smartphone with decent specifications and offer it with an almost pure Android experience. That’s basically what attracted people towards this handset in the first place and Motorola has since released multiple successors of the Moto X. If someone is still rocking one on Sprint then they’ll be glad to know that the carrier has finally released the Android 5.1 Lollipop update for this handset.

It’s going to be a substantial update for Moto X 2013 owners on Sprint because the carrier has not released any major update for this handset since Android 4.4 KitKat, and given that Lollipop is a major update with plenty of new features and improvements, users are going to have a very different experience once the update is installed.

Not only do they get the whole look and feel of Material Design that’s integral to Lollipop, they also get countless new features that come part and parcel of this update including but not limited to a revamped notification experience and crucial security improvements.

Software version LPA23.12-39.10 is now being rolled out by Sprint for the Moto X 2013, it has been a while since this roll out started so by now all Moto X 2013 owners across all supported regions should have received the Android 5.1 Lollipop update.
