Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge are now on sale in China.

Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge will be the first in line in receiving the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS update as the software is reportedly in testing phase. The roll out will be in June.

According to Android Origin, the two smartphones are the top priority of Samsung when it comes to OS update. Although the official date for the roll out was still undisclosed, but rumors are pointing that the update will be sometime in June.

The Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS update will bring forth dramatic improvements, especially in the camera features of both devices. The update will be similar to what HTC One M9 received that will greatly improve the quality of the photos.

Earlier this month, T-Mobile allegedly rolled out the latest Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS update to Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge via Over-The-Air. According to Christian Today, XDA Developer user Eduardo Mera, also known as Sunderwear, revealed a video of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge running with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS. If rumors proved to be true, the handset will make a big jump from Android 5.0.2 version.

The video also showed some of the significant changes in the handset such as updated locks of the bootloader device and repaired the memory leak of the previous Android Lollipop OS. Another great feature of the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS is the Guest Mode, which will enable the multiple users to gain access in the device while still protecting the info and data of the main user.

Guest mode users may also save their own apps and messages. The handset will also be equipped with Kids Mode feature that will provide safety to the device, especially to young users.

However, Samsung has not made the official announcement yet.
