The updated will be released to the lucky folks in Poland first, followed by other key markets “in the near future”.

Android 5.0 Lollipop for LG brings Google’s Material Design to its lineup of smartphones, as well as a bunch of improvements. According to LG, there will be a redesigned Notifications with new color screens, and will be available on the new lock screen. On top of an interface makeover, there is also a new security feature to strengthen the connectivity between devices such as Bluetooth unlocking using LG G Watch or G Watch R.
