Samsung Lollipop Update Release: 5 Things to Know in May

With May coming to a close and Samsung Lollipop update release details swirling around, we want to take a look at the bigger picture and tell you about some details we think Galaxy smartphone and tablet users need to know as we make our way into June and the summer.

Five months ago, Samsung started rolling out its Android 5.0 Lollipop update to Galaxy-branded devices. The company’s roll out started off slow but it has started to come on strong as we’ve pushed deeper into the year. In May, we’ve seen Samsung and its carrier partners push out numerous Android Lollipop updates and we’ve seen countless others confirmed for the future.

Samsung’s Lollipop updates for top devices like the Galaxy S5, Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 4, and Galaxy Note 3 continue to roll out alongside updates for Galaxy tablets and other mid-range devices. Samsung’s made a ton of progress but there is a long way to go before all of its devices are updated with Lollipop. Lollipop updates should continue well into the summer as Samsung and carriers complete their testing behind the scenes.

June figures to be an extremely busy month for Samsung and its partners and today we want to set up Galaxy owners for the future. As the month comes to a close, we want to fill you in on what we think are the five most important things to know about the Samsung Lollipop update release as we press forward into June.
