According to recent information we could already see Android V5.0 on the SamsunG Galaxy S5 as soon as December. As normally with big updates like those on Flagships like the S5, there are already leaks out there for the Lollipop Update.

The guys over at SamMobile have gotten an early build of the Samsung Galaxy S5 Android 5.0 Lollipop Update, that is newer then any update we have seen yet. The Lollipop update we can see here is based on Android 5.0 build LRX02E and is including the Lollipop Easter Egg. Most references to lollipops are not in that update yet, probably to prevent further leaks ahead of the Official Samsung Update.

If we compare this Galaxy S5 update to the one that leaked very early in October, this has already more tweaks to make it more fitting with the new Android 5.0 Material Design and look. Some of those changes include smoother animations, new icons, a new system font, and a optimized Material Design Look for a few apps. Also there is an nicer looking User interface for the Settings App.

Overall this Android 5.0 update is definitely an improvement to the one we have seen before. This is still an early build and we are very excited to see what the final Mix of Samsung TouchWiz and Android 5.0 Lollipop is going to look like.
