The AT&T Galaxy S4 just received its Android 5.0.1 Lollipop update yesterday, leaving S5 owners on the network wondering when they’d get the update. It turns out, according to the AT&T customer support Twitter account, the Galaxy S5 should be receiving Lollipop sometime today.

Just like other Samsung devices, the update to Lollipop will bring a ton of new UI and under the hood changes. Most notably, the user interface will get a nice refresh with Google’s Material Design guidelines, although the changes won’t be as noticeable as they would be on a device running vanilla Android. You’ll also get a few other new features including Smart Lock, Priority Mode notifications, and actionable lock screen notifications.

Unlike the S4’s update yesterday, we’re not exactly sure when the update for the S5 will begin rolling out. You will get a notification on your device when the update is ready. If you’d like to check for it manually, head to Settings>About device>Software update. If you don’t receive the OTA today, you may need to wait a day or two before it comes to your device.

Any S5 owners on AT&T receive the update yet? Let us know if you do!
