The latest version of Android called Marshmallow was released a while ago, still, not many devices are running it. This version includes improvements such as Google Now On Tap, Doze Mode to make batteries last a little longer, a new granular permission system and support for technologies like a fingerprint scanner and USB Type-C. Let’s not forget that an important reason to update is to get more secure versions of the OS. Manufacturers of mobile devices often customize the way this operating system looks and they might add a few extra features. This obviously takes some time and since these companies might build more than a single device, they have to make sure that the final version works on their whole portfolio. Some companies have already started updating a few models in some regions and most of them seem to have been working on bringing this update as soon as they can, but it could take a while before the entirety of the devices get updated. So, here’s a list of devices that have been confirmed to receive Android Marshmallow in the coming months. It is possible that some devices that didn’t make the list might still get updated, but the following devices have been confirmed by the companies themselves.
