The Android equivalent of the old saying "the rich get richer" has to be "the updated get more updates."

Just as March rolled around the corner, we heard news that Google's Android 5.0 Lollipop had officially made it to just over three percent of Android devices.

According to the latest statistics from the Android Developer's Dashboard, updated March 2, Kit Kat holds over 40 percent of devices, while Android 5.0 Lollipop (in it's various forms) hit all of 3.3 percent.

"Keeping Up With the Nexuses"

So of course it makes sense that the Nexus family of devices -- the privileged first-in-line Google devices that already currently run Android 5.0.1 -- is slated for another imminent Android L update.

According to TechnoBuffalo, IBTimes, corroborated by mounting evidence from the Dutch blog TechTastic (known for getting their hands on early Android updates) and a previous report from Latin Post, another Android L update is coming to Google's chosen few:

"The Nexuses" appear to be getting the new Android 5.1 Lollipop very soon. The Nexus smartphones, that is, and all of them, apparently.

Cue the jealous leers from the 99 percent -- that is, the rest of the Android community.

Evidence has accumulated of Android 5.1 running on the Nexus 6, the Nexus 5, and even the Nexus 4 -- a smartphone so old that when it originally released in 2012, it didn't even support LTE.

The main evidence for this news comes from Myce, a hardcore tech enthusiast community and news site (via IBTimes) that used the software issue tracker called Chromium to dig for evidence of the Android 5.1 Lollipop update. Myce found what it was looking for in spades, with three separate builds for each respective Nexus smartphone identified in technical documents.

Android 5.1 has already been spotted "in the wild," as it's been pre-installed on the low-cost Android One devices that Google's currently rolling out in places like India and the Philippines as we previously mentioned.

The Android 5.1 Lollipop update brings some small, but handy, improvements to Quick Settings, the notifications lockscreen, the Clock app, as well as WiFi and Bluetooth settings, among other fixes.

Now if only there was a "bug fix" to eradicate the long wait non-"pure Google" devices have to endure for each new Android update. Stay with LatinPost Tech for more news on Android 5.0 Lollipop (and now 5.1 Lollipop) updates as it happens!
