Happy Friday, Android users! And if you’re currently sporting the second-generation Moto X, you’re in for a treat. Motorola said it would deploy Android llipop quickly, boy, did it deliver.

Motorola has apparently not only has begun its soak test for llipop for the new Moto X, but it’s already put up arelease notes page for the update with a complete change log of what’s in the software package. ’ve yet to receive an indication of a llipop update on our Moto X unit, however.

y this matters: It’s not the biggest news to happen on a late Friday afternoon, but if the software update is pushed live over the weekend it means that Motorola technically beat to the Android 5.0 update punch. ile the Nexus 9 tablet ships with llipop, no other devices with prior Android versions have been updated yet—not even the Nexus 5 7!
