Probably easier hardware to deal with. It's not as fancy-shmancyHow is the pre-paid Moto E get Lollipop before a flagship like the Turbo?

Probably most importantly of all, it appears the Moto E isn't capable of VOLTE, so it's running dual antennas and the earlier architecture common with most of the other Motorola phones (and others), that have already received the move to Lollipop.
The following 17 devices (and their iterations), are on Verizon and support HD Calling (VOLTE) with Simultaneous Voice & Data Out (SVDO), so if it's not one of them, then it's likely that the Lollipop update can be ported over pretty easily.

Just my two cents worth, but folks have been hammering Moto about this on their forum for weeks. But, in the past they were constantly beat up for not selling enough phones overseas and not supporting the global community for the phones they did sell globally. Along comes the Moto E and Moto G and boom.....millions of units sold globally.....they were a big success. Now they are focusing updates where they have the most market, and now getting beat up at home by Moto X, Droid Maxx and Droid Turbo owners. Sometimes you just can't win for losing.How is the pre-paid Moto E get Lollipop before a flagship like the Turbo?

I can see that as a possibility.. But with the contract with vzw, and all the quick update talk, and releasing a phone that was crippled (voice and data) and most people...including me..didn't even know that..I expected the phone to be able to everything the maxx could and more..
And now sand bagging with information.. They're going to get all sorts of negative reactions..
Would vzw give you 7 months to do anything? I can tell you that if vzw finds an issue with a tower..if they're leasing space..they expect quick response..other than weather stopping climbers...it had better be immediate...
But they seem to carry the ...we're us and you're you, mentality..
I wouldn't say all sorts of negative reaction. Think about it... We're really in the minority that even know lollipop is coming to this thing. Vzw knows this and Motorola knows this. In the end they aren't concerned with the ramblings of a few nerds on some forums.
Well..the number of that few nerds is up exponentially.. But of those people...lots of em are not happy .
I see what you mean...but we don't know the actual percentages or the real issues with the update. Could be something simple or big that's held things up. But I'll take a good solid update over one pushed through just to get it out.
