Users of Motorola's Moto G 4G LTE edition in Canada, who
have subscribed to Rogers' wireless network services in the country, have lots
to cheer about as their smartphones are now confirmed to directly receive
Google's newer Android 5.1 (Lollipop) OS update bypassing the comparatively
older Android 5.0 (Lollipop) firmware upgrade.
The above development has surfaced via the official Rogers'
community forum listings, first spotted by MobileSyrup.
According to these listings, the Moto G 4G LTE variant will
officially receive Android 5.1 OS update beginning June 2015, hence users of
Rogers-driven Moto G 4G LTE can check out for Android 5.1 right from 1 June
2015 and let us know the rollout status of the OS update in our comments
section below.
Android 5.1 for Rogers-driven Moto G 4G LTE, will be
available in the form of automatic OTA notifications, and can also be manually
searched-for and downloaded/installed.
Since Moto G 4G LTE users on Rogers will receive Android 5.1
by bypassing Android 5.0, these users can expect all enhancements present in
Android 5.0 after they install the Android 5.1 OS update.
Enhancements brought along by Android 5.0:
Moto G users (on Rogers) will notice a brand new Material
design UI and improved lockscreen notifications, after updating to the Android
5.0 OS.
Besides a new Recent Apps menu, the update brings along the
Android ART runtime, which launches applications much faster.
Users will also notice a new Quick Settings menu and a new
battery saver mode, which has been implemented as a result of Google's project
Volta.
The new improved battery saver claims to automatically adjust
the brightness of display and limits updates occurring in the background,
leading to the overall battery life being enhanced by several notches.
Apart from the above newer aspects, Android 5.1 also
incorporates fixes to multiple known issues inherent in Android 5.0. Click here
