LG, the first global smartphone manufacturer to offer the Lollipop upgrade in 2014, will subsequently announce an upgrade schedule for other LG mobile devices," the statement read.
LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company President and CEO Dr. Jong-seok Park was quoted in the statement saying the company "is absolutely committed to give their customers the best mobile experiences available." He also said that their top priority was to bring the Android Lollipop to G3 owners "as soon as possible."

Also, there will be a new security feature "enabling users to unlock their smartphone when it is physically near a pre-registered Bluetooth device such as the LG G Watch or G Watch R." It will also have the Android Runtime (ART) software.
"The new features and improvements in Android 5.0 will bring a whole new user experience to the G3 and make it even better than it already is," Dr. Jong-seok Park was again quoted as saying.
Meanwhile, Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 users will also get the Lollipop update this week.
