First Samsung devices to get Android Marshmallow tipped, rolling out by early 2016
Samsung is still hard at work rolling out the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update to its mobile devices still, but the plans for the next edition Android 6.0 Marshmallow are already seeping through as well. Google's Marshmallow version brings with it a bunch of improvements, predominantly under the hood of Android, like app permissions, memory usage tracking, power saving, auto backup, and more, so it's worth knowing if Samsung has signed up your model among the first to get it.
