HTC One (M8) and One (M7) GPE to get Lollipop this Friday
Last week, HTC promised the Android 5.0. Lollipop update for the Google Play Edition One (M8) and One (M7) would be coming early this week. Sadly, due to delays and unforeseen bugs, the update launch date has been pushed to this Friday.
Mo Versi, HTC"s VP of Product Management, has responded on Twitter answering questions regarding the latest Lollipop development for the company"s GPE devices. If everything goes as planned, the OTA roll out will happen in just 48 hours, so fingers crossed!
Regular, non-GPE HTC One (M8) and One (M7) owners are still expecting to get news on the development of the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for their devices. HTC promised the update will arrive within 90 days of the Lollipop arrival. Both are listed on HTC"s website as being in the initial, evaluation stage of their firmware update journey.
Additionally, the One mini and One mini 2 are also on track to get Android 5.0, but they are currently under consideration. Their update is likely to arrive after that of the One (M8) and (M7) duo.
