Thankfully, though, you can skip the waiting line and try out the new Android 5.1 SDK on Mac OS X or Windows-based computers. Since only around 5% of smartphones and tablets under the Android name and running any type of Lollipop OS, it’s fair to say it’s still going to be some time until Google and phone carrier networks team up with OEMs for the release of the latest 5.1 for most devices. Now the Lollipop software is seeing a new level of updates which make the leap all the way to 5.1 Lollipop. Android 5.0 Lollipop saw several updates including the 5.0.1 and 5.0.2. If you are using one of the latest smartphones from Google, or indeed one of the other OEM flagships in recent times, you might be aware of the new Android 5.1 update that’s the successor to the original 5.0 Lollipop.
