The LG K20, A Budget Android smartphone from LG, was listed on Android Enterprise website with Android 9 Pie.
Does it mean that the LG K20 launched in 2017 will get the Android 9 Pie firmware Update?
In the U.S., LG k20 was released in 2017 with Android Nougat 7.0 out of the box. The U.S. Variants of the LG K20 Smartphone have been sold via Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and MetroPCS.
Carrier | Marketing Name | Device | Model |
AT&T | LG K20 | lv517n | LG-M255 |
T-mobile | LG K20 Plus | lv517 | LG-TP260 |
MetroPCS | LG K20 Plus | lv517 | LGMP260 |
Verizon | LG K20 V | lv517 | VS501 |
LRA | LG K20 | lv517 | RS501 |
The latest firmware update for U.S. Version LG K20 is still based on Android Nougat. It seems that LG will not release Pie Update for the models listed in the above table.
In fact, the LG K20 with Android Pie Go edition listed on Gooogle Android Enterprise website has the model number LM-X120. It is the LG K20 2019 for European Markets.
Anyway, LG K20 series smartphone owners in the U.S. will not be able to see the Android Pie on their devices.
