LG was boasting to become the first OEM to roll out the Lollipop update, but Motorola didn’t need words to silence them, instead they put their plan to action to accomplish this feat. Google is also drawing flak from Nexus fans, who are furious that their devices haven’t received the Android 5.0 update yet.
