Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

It was reported earlier this year that the Galaxy E5 and the Galaxy E7 will be updated to Lollipop in the near future and just last month the much awaited Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update started rolling out for the Galaxy E5 in Russia and India. Now the same update has been released for folks who own the Galaxy E5 in Sri Lanka. The update brings an improved user interface, tweaks to the lockscreen, heads-up notifications as well as enhancements for performance and battery life.

We believe that this is one of the greatest mid-range smartphones that Samsung has ever created so if you're in the market for a smartphone in this range perhaps you should check out the Galaxy E5. The update has started rolling out in Sri Lanka, it's also readily available for download through our firmware section for those who don't mind manually flashing it on their device.
