Android 5.0 Lollipop headed to popular Samsung Galaxy S5 by December

The popular flagship device should begin its update rollout earlier in December with all users getting the update by the end of the month in all regions.

Google's latest update will also see Samsung update its TouchWiz UI to match the "Material Design" features that are key to the new OS.
