Just as promised, Google began the update rollout for its later-year Nexus devices, including the Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 9, and Nexus Player.
Now that the Google Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X have been unveiled, the big question for Android fans is about whether and when their devices will get the Android M update, also known as Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
Every Android device could be at risk. Two new major vulnerabilities, together called "Stagefright," have been discovered and could affect every active Android device out there.
After rigorous testing over the summer and three developer previews later, Google is finally set to launch the final version the Android 6.0 Marshmallow. If the latest confirmation from an Android-based website is to be believed, a handful of Nexus devices will be receiving Google's next-gen mobile operating system next week.
As the release date of Android 6.0 M, (now known to be Android 6.0 Marshmallow) approaches, users of Google's mobile operating systems may be wondering what's coming in the update that's different from the last operating system it released, Android 5.0 Lollipop.
A recent tipster claims that the HTC One A9 will have the Android 6.0 Marshmallow on board upon the device's release. HTC is rumored to hold a press event on Sept. 29 to unveil two flagship smartphones.
New details of the upcoming Huawei-manufactured Nexus have surfaced on the GeekBench database. Google will showcase two new "pure Android" smartphones later this month.
Android 6.0 Marshmallow, first known to developers simply as Android M, is expected to be released along with the 2015 next-generation LG Nexus 5 and Huawei Nexus 6 devices this fall. But which Android flagships are getting the latest sweetly-named version of Android after that?
