US has it for a month now
The tables have turned and the US got the Android 5.1 updated for the HTC M9 flagship phones.
Most of the US carriers have released the over the air (OTA) update to their customers who are now enjoying the Android 5.1. HTC just announced that the customers in EMEA Europe, Middle East and Africa are about to start seeing the update on August 4 th , or today.
We don't expect any big changes but it would feel good to know that you have the latest and greatest Android 5.1 on the phone. Currently HTC offers Android 5.0.2 with Sense 7 on its phones. LG G4 has Android 5.1 for a few weeks now and Samsung Galaxy S6 is slowly getting the update across many territories.
HTC has publicly said that it will update this phone to Android M, but we will be lucky if that happen before the end of 2016. Traditionally, the latest and greatest Android launches in Q4. Judging from Lollipop Android 5.0 launch, we might expect Android M to role in late October or November time for Nexus devices and later for everyone else.
