The Android 5.1 Lollipop update is a reality, and its landing on smartphones and tablets around the world seems to be closer and closer to starting to take place. A performance test has revealed the existence of a Nexus 5 running under the Android 5.1 Lollipop version of the Android operating system. Assuming that this test is true, the conclusion we can draw is that the American company Google is already testing the Android 5.1 update on its smartphones from the Nexus range, which translates into an imminent distribution of this update among users.
And although the new version of Android 5.1 Lollipop is not yet available in European territory, Asian users are finding this update installed from the factory on the smartphones of the Android One range. The novelties of Android 5.1 do not seem to incorporate any important visual changes beyond a small modification in the notification bar, and the only really notable novelties of this update reside in minor bug fixes and in the supposed return of the silent mode that disappeared with Android 5.0 Lollipop.
The origin of Android 5.1 Lollipop dates back to India, where the American company Google has begun to distribute a range of affordable smartphones that belong to the Android One platform. These terminals are characterized by incorporating a specially humble characteristics (screen resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, processors MediaTek of four cores, 4 gigabytes of internal storage, etc.), and interestingly these specifications are not an impediment to all these mobile come Factory with Android version 5.1Android operating system.
Today, the most recent versions of the Android operating system available to users are Android 5.0.1 and Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. Beyond some bug fixes, these two versions also don't make any major changes to the interface or functionality compared to Android 5.0 Lollipop. Errors that most seem to recur among users include problems with excessive battery consumption, performance issues and problems with the stability of wireless connectivity (especially WiFi).
Presumably the first to receive the Android 5.1 Lollipop update will be the owners of a device belonging to the Nexus range. It seems that the Nexus 5 is one of the first candidates to receive this update, since at the moment it is the only one that has starred in a performance test running under this version of the Android operating system. In any case, it is most likely that this update will begin to be distributed first in the form of a downloadable file, so the only way to download it during the first days will be to do it through the official Google website: https: //developers.google.com/android/nexus/images.
