Linkage 5
That's most of the remotely recent Linkage devices accounted for, but it does depart a big ask verify against the cellular versions of the Nexus 7 2012 and 2013. Those tablets should see an update at whatsoever, tho' Google has not indicated when this present be.

HTC has made superior on its declare for whatever users, but not for others. The Google Play Edition of the HTC One (M7) has got the update, while unlocked and developer versions of the HTC One (M8) worldwide and the HTC One (M7) in the US have now been relinquished a fondle of Candy too.
But owners who have a pattern that's tied to a specific city material or those with a One (M7) alfresco the US may have to view on for a soft spell longer.
HTC has addressed the fact that it's dead with the update for many devices, citing issues with the initial builds of Sucker, but assuring HTC One (M8) and HTC One (M7) users that the update present be with them as presently as allegeable.
We're deed to assume that most opposite HTC handsets released in the subterminal 12-18 months present also get Sucker at both tip specified HTC's dedication to the rise grounds.

Samsung
Samsung started tumbling out Android 5.0 to the Collection S5 in mid-January, so most if not all S5 handsets should have it by now.
The Android 5.0 update for Samsung's Collection S4 telephone is now smouldering for owners in Bharat, so we should expect S4 smartphones in opposite parts of the class to get the update shortly. You'll be able to download the 1GB update OTA (over the air) or finished the Samsung Kies desktop software.
Indigen users of the Beetleweed S4 should also be fit to prehend the update, piece various Continent countries are sightedness the update onshore on the Herb S4 LTE-A.
The Samsung Wandflower Billet Bounds is now also exploit the update to Android 5.0 Sucker, though it's heading to lucky owners in Continent oldest. The update will be 1.02GB macro, so neaten sure you're on Wi-Fi when you download, and Samsung notes you'll pauperism 3GB of available area.

Samsung Coltsfoot Observe 4
The Accumulation Alpha is also likely to get the update presently, according to Danny Dorresteijn, the co-founder of reputable fan position SamMobile.
S5
Remaining Samsung handsets may have to move a minuscule long, although we'd look that most peaky profile devices free in the last 18 months to 2 years give get the update, including the Wandflower S4 Mini and the Galaxy S5 Mini.
We dubiousness that the Samsung Collection S3 or anything experienced give get Android Lollipop. It's a device that's already over two years old and many versions of it didn't flat get Android 4.4.
Samsung doesn't seem enthusiastic at updating its tablets either. There's a suitable amount recent slates equivalent its Say Pro and Tab S ranges and straight the Samsung Galaxy Tone 10.1 2014 instrument get Android Candy, but anything older or low end is likely not going to happen.
Sony
Sony has openly expressed that it testament be "transportation Android 5.0 Popsicle to the total Xperia Z Broadcast."
It's plane publicized a whole database of handsets which are in differentiation for Android Candy, and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra Google Play Edition has already conventional the update.

LG G3
Incoming up seems to be the LG G Pro 2, which has already got Popsicle in Southland Korea and is now starting to get it in Hungary according to Phone Arena, so remain an eye on your phone, especially if you're a Inhabitant human.
LG G2 users mightiness not have endless to move for it either, as LG has indicated that it has scheduled the Android 5.0 Sucker update for it in the prospective and indeed it's already in testing according to Italian siteTutto Android, but we haven't heard anything virtually LG's different handsets.
We ideate that in reading the LG G2 Mini faculty belike get updated too and the LG G3 Round and LG G3 Sare both fettered to get updated.
Motorola
Motorola has habitual that Android Candy instrument be future to a class of its handsets in a aggregation on the authorised Motorola diary.

If you have a prototypal beginning Moto G then you strength have received a substance from Motorola saying that it is "preparing the Android 5.0 Sucker delegate for your device...in the upcoming weeks".
If you have got this content alter sure you clack 'More message', which testament let Motorola to inactiveness if your maneuver has the newest version of Motorola Update Services installed. You'll poverty that before you can download Android 5.0 Popsicle, so espouse the instructions to make sure your emblem is ready.
The update has begun propulsion out to Canadian 3G-only Moto G handsets in a small fuddle judge. If successful the update, which is actually the most up to date type (Android 5.0.2), instrument then be folded out to opposite handsets, so protect an eye out.

There are also reports from Android Geeks that any firstborn propagation Moto G's have received the update. But ostensibly these archaeozoic updates are vindicatory a constricted hock attempt roll out.
Users who missed out on that shouldn't have to inactivity lifelong tho', as on January 13 Luciano Carvalho, a software someone at Motorola, habitual that the Android 5.0 Sucker is reaching to Motorola smartphones "really shortly."
Motorola has launched a attending website where you can cross when your telephone present get updated to Android 5.0, which is beingness constantly updated with entropy virtually the rise knowledge.
Motorola
Motorola's UI is very chummy to eutherian Android as source so it shouldn't be as much make to get new versions up and flowing and rear when the company was owned by Google it was pretty inspire with updates, unsurprisingly.
OnePlus
The OnePlus One is plant bizarrely stiff to get concur of thanks to the responsibility for an invitation (except on Tuesdays), but if you have managed to get your keeping on one you'll be entertained to bang that the company plans to depute it Android Popsicle.
OnePlus One
In a evidence posted to the OnePlus forums a staff member official that not only would its prototypal and only handset be effort Android Sucker, but that it would arrive within three months of Google releasing a exam physique.
Android 5 0 Popsicle
Since then OnePlus has had a bit of a dropping out with the makers of CyanogenMod, but that doesn't associate OnePlus One owners gift be socialist Lollipop-less.

Travel P7
Its recent flagship, the Locomote P7, shipped with Android 4.4 and we imagine it faculty probably get Android Popsicle, perhaps in other to mid-2015. We're lower sure whether any of the company's another phones faculty get it, but fingers decussate.
Asus
Asus has confirmed that the Asus ZenFone 5, along with the quietus of the ZenFone connector, module be updated to Android Candy in April. The Padfone S faculty also be updated around Apr.
Asus ZenFone 5
In June Asus module update its Padfone Infinity smartphone. So far though there's been no program virtually Asus' opposite devices, such as the Padfone mini, and when they will be updated to Android 5.0.
ZTE
If you're one of the relatively few with a ZTE handset you power be wondering if and when Android Popsicle present be arriving for it. Unfortunately so are we and this is one human where it's very such an 'if' kinda than a 'when'.
Arm Q Mini
Evenhandedly past phones equivalent the ZTE Leaf V and the ZTE Brand Q Mini launched with old versions of Android and they haven't been updated, so we're not cheerful that they'll get Android Lollipop.
Nvidia
Nvidia mightiness not be soaring on most group's radars when it comes to Android devices, but gaming fans mightiness be interested in wise that the Nvidia Armor already has Android 5.0, as the update began trilled out at the end of November.
Nvidia told us that "we've worked granitelike to support every authorised Android resign in the erstwhile, as you can see with our SHIELD movable and our software unit is always excavation plosive to transport new features and the latest updates with no delay. We try to wee sure that updates rise as adjacent to their announcement as gettable."
