2010's Motorola Defy is currently the oldest device to get a taste of Android 5.0 Lollipop, defies expectations
After the AOSP images of Android 5.0 Lollipop got released, many devices (mostly older ones) have been treated to custom AOSP-based Lollipop builds. We've already told you that the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, the Galaxy S III mini, and the Sony Xperia L have already taken a lick of the latest Android version, yet today a long-in-the-tooth trooper beat them all.
Unsurprisingly, its specs sheet will most probably evoke a subtle smirk from most of nowadays smartphone devotees - the Motorola Defy humbly sports a single-core Texas Instruments' OMAP3630 chipset that runs at 800MHz (similar to the one in the Moto 360 smartwatch), 512MB of RAM on board, a 3.7-inch display with a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, 2GB of native storage, and a 1540mAh powerbank at the bank. Initially, the OS of choice was Android 2.1 Eclair, but it seems that Lollipop brought the Motorola Defy back from the dead.
