If you’re using the Motorola Moto G 5G (2024), there’s good news the Android 15 update has officially started rolling out! As with most big updates, it’s being released in phases, so if you haven’t seen it on your device just yet, don’t worry it’s on the way.
Who’s Getting It First?
Just last week, we talked about the Android 15 rollout plan for Moto G 5G 2024 on Rogers and Fido in Canada. But now it looks like some users on the Metro network in the U.S. are getting the update early a pleasant surprise!
A few users on Reddit, including Seej1982, have confirmed they’ve already received Android 15 on their devices. So, the ball is definitely rolling.
Nervous About Updating? You’re Not Alone.
Not everyone’s excited to hit that “Update Now” button — and that’s understandable. Some users are worried that the update might make things worse instead of better (especially given how previous updates on budget phones haven’t always been smooth).
That said, early feedback so far is positive no major bugs have been reported yet.
What’s New in Android 15?
Let’s be honest this isn’t a flashy update packed with cool features. Android 15 on the Moto G 5G 2024 is more about:
- Under-the-hood improvements
- Minor UI tweaks
- Security and stability enhancements
So, while it may not look drastically different, it should help your phone run more securely and (hopefully) more smoothly.
When Will You Get It?
The update is rolling out in waves, which means it could take a few days or even weeks to reach all devices. It depends on your carrier, location, and whether your phone is on the latest Android 14 build (you’ll need that first).
What You Should Do
Here’s how to prepare for the Android 15 update:
- Check if it’s available:
- Go to Settings → System → System updates
- Make sure your phone is updated to the latest Android 14 version
- Back up your data:
- Use Google Drive or another cloud service, just in case
- Plug in and connect to Wi-Fi before starting the update
Even if you don’t want the update right away, you’ll eventually get a notification asking you to install it. You can delay it temporarily — but not forever.
Final Thoughts
If you’ve got a Moto G 5G (2024), the Android 15 update is on its way to you — possibly very soon. While it doesn’t bring any jaw-dropping features, it’s a good step forward in terms of security and system stability.
If you’re still unsure about installing it right away, it’s totally fine to wait and see how others are doing with it. But once you’re ready, make sure your phone is backed up — and enjoy the upgrade.
