Android 6.0 Marshmallow is expected to be sent out to the devices fairly soon. One might say that it's too late in the day, given that Google is already preparing the release of Android Nougat. But such is the nature of the Android platform where updates take an eternity to arrive, and it's not entirely Google's fault. Its Nexus devices receive updates sooner than any other device and the source code is made available to the manufacturers shortly after the announcement of the updates.
However, OEMs take time in sending them out to their devices as they have to customize it with their apps/services and other content. This leaves the users high and dry as they're still stuck on an older version of Android while Nexus users get the latest and greatest features from Android.
Then there's the question of which devices will get the update and which won't. To help you understand this aspect better, we have compiled a list below with OEMs and some of their popular devices that are on course to receive theMarshmallow update.
