Motorola reveals which models will be getting Android 5.0

Curious to know if your Motorola smartphone will be updated to Android 5.0? Motorola's website has an entire page that addresses this question. First, let's use some common sense to eliminate very old devices. If your Motorola smartphone was not updated to Jellybean, what on God's Earth would make you think that it will receive Android 5.0? Similarly, you can rule out models that failed to taste the chocolatey goodness of Android 4.4 KiKat.

Currently, Motorola models due to receive Android 5.0 Lollipop include the Motorola Moto X (both 2013 and 2014 models), the Motorola Moto G (both 2013 and 2014 models), Motorola DROID Ultra, Motorola DROID MAXX, Motorola DROID Mini, Motorola Moto G with LTE, and the Motorola Moto E.

One phone not yet on the list (most likely because it has yet to be made official), is the Motorola DROID Turbo. Expected to be introduced later today, and launched on Thursday, the new Motorola flagship is expected to come to market with Android 4.4.4 pre-installed. We expect that a quick update to Android 5.0 will be in order.
