Samsung has only gotten around to bringing Lollipop to two Galaxy S5 variants in the U.S. so far — the ones connected to Sprint and Verizon — but there may be a way to get it on other handsets early.

According to one Samsung staffer, your local Samsung Experience Shop can flash the company’s latest Lollipop software onto almost all Galaxy S5 handsets, but there are few caveats.

If you’ve got a Galaxy S5 on Sprint, the latest Android 5.0 Lollipop update is coming your way today, Samsung has promised. The release will include everything that you would expect to see in a Lollipop upgrade, plus a few extra features specifically for Sprint devices.

HTC does some pretty terrific things — its One M8 is a prime example of that. But it does some downright ridiculous things, too, like producing its own rap videos.

Yes, you read that right; the Taiwanese company has produced its own rap video that explains the many advantages the One M8 has over its rivals, and trashes competing products like the iPhone 6 and Samsung’s Galaxy S5.

If you’re a Galaxy S5 user on Verizon, your long-awaited Android 5.0 Lollipop update is incoming. The carrier today confirmed its immediate rollout, which brings new features and significant improvements to performance and battery life.

Apple is close to becoming the world’s top smartphone maker for the first time since it conceded the title to Samsung more than three years ago. The Cupertino company is selling more iPhones than ever before, while Samsung’s smartphone sales are slowing.
