Are all Tab S 8.4 in the US updating to Lollipop now?

My 10.5 got it least a month or so ago. Was going to pick up the 8.4 later this week and was hoping it would get the Lollipop right away.
 
What makes you ask? Do you know anyone who has gotten the update?

Our 10.5 got the Lollipop update but nothing for the 8.4.

What gives? I thought the 10.5 and 8.4 were the same tablets just in different sizes.
 
Apparently, the Lollipop update for the 8.4 has only been released in Korea. It's been roughly 3 weeks now. As an 8.4 owner myself, I've become fairly impatient now (and that's putting it lightly), but there isn't much we can do.

To summarize, 8.4 update only in Korea. No evidence of it rolling out in North America yet... (I'm in Canada).
 
Performance on KitKat has been fine for me. I'd hesitate to update if it wasn't to 5.1 at this point.
 
Maybe samsung is updating all the others countries,so the biggest market USA is problem free when they get the update
 
Flashed the Saudi Arabian build for the 8.4. Works great! I'm in the U.S. Also tried The Panama ans Swiss builds all worked just fine.

It's a slow D/L but worth it.

No carrier purely Wifi. Everything appears to work fine. Downloaded all the Lollypop apps that I had on an older Nexus 7 I replaced with the 8.4. Good Luck!
