We have already seen a preview of Samsung’s TouchWiz flavored Lollipop on the Galaxy S5 and Galaxy S4. Next in line for a little tease is Samsung’s latest phablet — the Galaxy Note 4. 

This time around though, instead of a video preview, the Lollipop firmware for the Galaxy Note 4 has been teased through a couple of photos. The photos provide us a look at how Samsung has managed to integrate the new features of Lollipop with its TouchWiz skin in the lock screen and notification bar.

DDDorresteijn, the source of these photos, has promised a video preview of Lollipop running on the Galaxy Note 4 for later this week. However, don’t expect the firmware to be available for download.

He has also posted some images of the Google Play edition Galaxy S4 running Android 5.0 Lollipop, though he fails to provide a specific timeframe as to when Samsung and Google plan on rolling out the update for the handset.

Samsung is rumored to update the Galaxy S5 to Lollipop by the end of December, and it is very likely that the company will update the Galaxy Note 4 to Android 5.0 around the same time or in early January.
