Hi There,

I want to ask that did anyone updated his/her Moto G with this current update?
If yes, Please share the improvements/differences you had noticed.
Whether you guys recommend it to download :?:

The reason being I'm asking this is when I updated my Moto G with 5.0 , I did not like it much and missed the earlier interference I used to it.
Thanks a lot for your support :)

Lollipop ruined everything but 5.1 and 5.1.1 seem to be miles ahead of 5.0 in terms of stability
Still nowhere near Kitkat

Really...So you're suggesting to install this update?
What were the precautions/instructions to be observed before/after updating the device?

P.S - I'm trying to upload the Screenshot which is resized to 78 KB but it says "Upload Failed" :(

Anyone wants to share his thoughts here?
