loved the Galaxy Note 4, though its biggest drawback (as is often the case with Samsung devices) was the oppressive Touchz software.

Samsung may be going for a softer touch on its phones with llipop, as indicated by some leaked screenshots to hit Twitter that show Android 5.0 running on a Galaxy Note 4.


don’t get to see much else beyond the lock screen notifications, but this early look hints there may be just a little more llipop less Touchz when this finally goes live.

The drop-down Notification Center quick settings are more Samsung-inspired with the stark neon, but the pop-up notifications lock-screen display both look closer to pure llipop.


saw this type of teaser on the Galaxy S5, so it’s a good indication that Samsung is working away at bringing llipop to its flagship phones. th Motorola Nexus devices already getting the big 5.0 update, Samsung needs to keep pace to keep buyers of its top-tier phones happy.

y this matters: Samsung’s dominating sales may be slipping, but it still sells a ton of phones. And the Galaxy Note 4 is one of the best this year, especially if you’re after a phablet-style device. Its excellent screen camera would make a compelling choice if combined with the latest version of Android, especially for those tempted by the difficult-to-buy Nexus 6.
