Nexus 5 Users Get Their Own Lollipop



The news of delayed release of Android 5.0 aka Lollipop update on Nexus 5 had disappointed the users thoroughly. It was also rumored that Moto X and Moto G would get the update sooner than Nexus 5 users, which only added more distress to the waiting Nexus owners.

However, there is no reason to be sad or disappointed now. Apparently there was some bug in the device that caused the delay. The said bug was believed to drain the battery erratically. As officially stated by Google, this bug was the reason behind the postponing of the big update from November 3rd to the next week. But it seems that the issue has now been sorted out and the Nexus 5 will finally receive its much-awaited update.

Yes, we have official great news from Google that Android 5.0 a.k.a the Lollipop has started rolling out on Nexus 5 from today. Therefore, if not today, may be in a couple of days, you would get your share of “Lollipop”.

Now for those who can’t hide their enthusiasm head over to the Settings on your phone – About Phone – System Update – Check Now to see if your update is ready and waiting for you.

Why such excitement?
Are you still wondering why this update is so much in the news? The Lollipop is one of the major operating system updates that Google has released.

The biggest refashioned feature is the Material Design which allows app developers for integrating the new design pattern easily into their apps.

Along with its fresh look, Android Lollipop commits improved flexibility and connectivity. One of its main features is that it connects all your devices which run on android. Even if you switch between your phone your tab or a wearable. You can continue playing songs, photos, apps and even recent searches exactly where you left it.

Additionally, the design of the Lollipop adapts to the device. For example, the operating system shows your inbox along with the message you are reading. So that you can also see the new e-mail that arrives while you are reading the earlier one. Just like Microsoft Outlook.

On the performance part, the Android 5.0 Lollipop brings in a much smoother and powerful computing experience. It will now run ART Runtime which has permanently replaced the DALVIK Runtime.

Moreover, Lollipop also lets you customize settings as per your choice. You can now choose whose message is eligible to disturb you while at work and respond to it from the lock screen itself.

For further details of its new features, kindly head over to Google’s official page for Android Developers.
