Motorola's first-generation Moto E, Moto G 4G, and Moto
X will not receive the Android 5.0 Lollipop update, and
will directly receive the Android 5.1 update.
The news was confirmed by Motorola's Senior Director
of Software Product Management, David Schuster, who
in a Google+ post stated reasons for the direct update to
Android 5.1 Lollipop. Schuster claimed that Android 5.1
Lollipop came with a lot of improvements compared to
Android 5.0 update leading the company to upgrade the
three devices directly to Android 5.1 instead.


He said, "As some of you might know, we've been
testing Lollipop 5.0.2 upgrades on Moto X (1st Gen),
Moto E (1st Gen) and Moto G with 4G LTE (1st Gen) in
several regions. In parallel we have started testing
Lollipop 5.1 which was recently released by Google.
Given the improvements in Lollipop 5.1, we have decided
to move all efforts to upgrade these devices directly
from KitKat to Lollipop 5.1."
