That is a large portion of the remotely late Nexus gadgets represented, however it does leave a huge question mark against the cell variants of the Nexus 7 2012 and 2013. Those tablets ought to see a redesign sooner or later, however Google has not showed when this will be.
Any Nexus gadgets more established than the ones we've officially said are everything except ensured not to get it, implying that Nexus S proprietors are plum up the creek without a paddle. Google has additionally affirmed that the Galaxy Nexus won't get the redesign.

HTC has been more prospective with its redesign plans than a few makers and its no shock given how rapidly its begun conveying the upgrade to clients. In an announcement the organization initially said:
"We will start taking off upgrades to the HTC One M8 and HTC One M7 in areas worldwide inside 90 days of getting last programming from Google, took after without further ado from there on by other One relatives and select gadgets."
Yet, proprietors who have a gadget that is attached to a particular portable system or those with an One M7 outside the US may need to hang on for a little time longer.
We're going to expect that most other HTC handsets discharged in the last 12-18 months will likewise get Lollipop sooner or later given HTC's dedication to the overhaul cause.
When in doubt the later and prominent a gadget is the more probable it is to get an overhaul. In reality as indicated by LlabTooFeR the HTC Desire Eye and HTC One E8 will both get overhauled.
Another break expresses the HTC One Mini 2 and Desire 816 will get Lollipop at some point in March or April, while the HTC One Max, HTC One Mini and Butterfly S have a normal Android 5.0 rollout of March-May.

Samsung began taking off Android 5.0 to the Galaxy S5 in mid-January, so most if not all S5 handsets ought to have it at this point.
The Android 5.0 overhaul for Samsung's Galaxy S4 handset is presently live for proprietors in India, so we ought to expect S4 cell phones in different parts of the world to get the upgrade soon. You'll have the capacity to download the 1GB redesign OTA (over the air) or through the Samsung Kies desktop programming.
Russian clients of the Galaxy S4 ought to likewise have the capacity to snatch the upgrade, while different European nations are seeing the redesign arrive on the Galaxy S4 LTE-A.

The Galaxy Alpha is additionally liable to get the upgrade soon, as per Danny Dorresteijn, the prime supporter of regarded fan site SamMobile.
Other Samsung handsets may need to hold up somewhat more, despite the fact that we'd expect that most prominent gadgets discharged in the most recent 18 months to 2 years will get the redesign, including the Galaxy S4 Mini and the Galaxy S5 Mini.
We question that the Samsung Galaxy S3 or anything more established will get Android Lollipop. It's a gadget that is now more than two years of age and a few adaptations of it didn't even get Android 4.4.
Samsung doesn't appear to be extraordinary at redesigning its tablets either. There's a decent risk late slates like its Note Pro and Tab S ranges and even the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 will get Android Lollipop, yet anything more seasoned or low end is likely not going to happen.
Sony
