Sony Xperia M2, Xperia M2 Aqua getting Android 5.1 update soon

The Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update should bring about a fresh breath of air, thanks to the new user interface design, in addition to a slew of customization options such as finger control over the volume, silent and alerts functions. But then, upon updating, the users will experience the improvements that this Lollipop update carries. It’s Android 5.1 and it’ll change your life. We’ll find out once the OTA update arrives. It is not clear if the four other USA carriers will follow suit.

As promised a few weeks ago, the software update for the pair is almost ready. They are also advised to ensure that there is enough space on their device to be able to complete the installation of the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update, details Ubergizmo. If you are one of the lucky recipients, please let us know what you think of Lollipop on your Xperia.

Samsung, the South Korean phone giant is taking every possible way, no matter how small, to update its phone lineup to the most current Android version. There are expected improvements and new features with these handsets once their operating system is already upgraded.

There’s no mention if this update brings the Stagefright security patch just like when the Android 5.1 was recently made available for the Xperia Z1, Xperia Z Ultra, and and the Xperia Z1 Compact.

Samsung needed no convincing as the clamors certainly have a leg to stand on. As the Xperia M2 was launched with Android 4.3 KitKat out-of-the-box, it would be skipping the Android 4.4 KitKat and Android 5.0 Lollipop OS versions.

It was actually the numerous feedbacks and demand of Samsung Galaxy S5 owners on community forums that prompted Samsung and partner mobile carriers to immediately buckle down to work and ensure the release of the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop very soon.
