LG G3 Smart Phones

The Android 5.0 update release: which smartphones will get Lollipop and when

LG G3 – LG was quick to bring the Android 5.0 Lollipop update to its flagship smartphone; the software has been out since November. Its availability, however, is still limited. So far, we have reports of the update launching in South Korea and select parts of Europe, including Poland and the Nordic countries. Vodafone subscribers in the U.K. have been reached by the update as well, reportedly.

UPDATE: The new software is now available in a broader list of markets. Sprint is likely to update its G3 model by mid-February.

LG G2 – The good news is that LG's former flagship, the LG G2, will surely be updated to Android 5.0. Unfortunately, we don't have any specifics as to when the software might launch. What we know is that the Lollipop update will reach the G2 soon after it rolls out to the G3 globally. The new software is expected to update the G2's UI by bringing the skin currently present on the G3, along with some or all of its perks. 

Another smartphone we're expecting to get Android 5.0 is the LG G Pro 2, but its maker has not announced any update plans yet. Likewise, there's no word on whether any recent mid-range Android smartphone by LG will get the Lollipop treat.

UPDATE: The LG G Pro 2 is now being updated to Android 5.0, starting with units sold in Korea.
