GSMArena also adds that even though the leaked schedule list talks about the precise plan of the manufacturer for rolling out Lollipop updates, the time frames may not be followed exactly. However, the leaked Lollipop update schedule list shows that HTC aims to quickly roll out the update to its devices, unlike before when it used to take a lot of time for an Android upgrade to HTC handsets.
