Just wondering if I should upgrade my 1st gen Moto G to the new Lollipop 5.0 version which is now available?

Any reported issues, bugs?

Thanks

    5.0.2 runs fine on the Moto G (3G) 2nd Gen. No idea if the underlying hardware is significantly different though, other than the slightly larger screen and front-facing speakers.

    Yes.

    Can't wait for it to be available on my Z2. I'm on 4.4.4

    Installed it onto 2 x Moto G first gens and so far so good.... things look and work slightly differently but overall it's good.

    I didn't do a factory reset after installing as it all seems to work fine.

    Superb - worked with no issues, only having to learn the slightly changed interface.
