Moto DROID Turbo Android 5.1 Lollipop OS update release may happen soon as Motorola invites users to take part of the soak test like what it did with Moto X 2013 and 2014.

According to Droid-Life, Motorola are inviting DROID Turbo users to preview the upcoming software for the handset. Although Motorola has not stated that the soak test is for Android 5.1 OS, the DROID Turbo is currently running with the Kitkat 4.4.4 version of Android operating system. Thus, it is a no-brainer that the update is for the Lollipop OS. Meanwhile, there were speculations that Moto DROID Turbo will jump straight to Android M.
