HTC announced previously that the HTC One M8 would get the Android Marshmallow update and now it looks like we are getting closer to the release of the update.
The Android 6.0 Marshmallow update is expected to land on the device before the end of the year and it is possible that it could land on the device very soon.
Certification and Release Timeline
The HTC One M8 with Android 6.0 Marshmallow has just received certification from the Bluetooth SIG, this can be seen in the photo below.
This certification is a significant milestone as it indicates that the update is in its final stages of testing and approval. The Bluetooth SIG certification is one of the last steps before a software update is rolled out to the public. This means that HTC One M8 users can expect the update to be available for download very soon.
What to Expect from Android 6.0 Marshmallow
Android 6.0 Marshmallow brings a host of new features and improvements over its predecessor, Android Lollipop. One of the most notable features is the new app permissions model, which gives users more control over the permissions that apps request. Instead of granting all permissions at once during installation, users can now approve or deny permissions as needed.
Another significant feature is Doze Mode, which aims to improve battery life by putting the device into a deep sleep state when it is not in use. This can significantly extend the battery life of the HTC One M8, especially for users who do not frequently use their device.
Additionally, Android Marshmallow introduces Google Now on Tap, a feature that provides contextual information and actions based on the content currently displayed on the screen. For example, if you are reading an article about a movie, you can activate Google Now on Tap to get more information about the movie, such as reviews, showtimes, and cast details.
The update also includes improvements to the overall performance and stability of the device, as well as new security features such as fingerprint authentication and enhanced encryption.
As yet there are no details on exactly when the Android Marshmallow update will land on the HTC One M8, as soon as we get some details on the exact release date of the update for the device, we will let you guys know. However, given the recent Bluetooth SIG certification, it is likely that the update will be available very soon.
HTC One M8 users can look forward to enjoying the new features and improvements that Android 6.0 Marshmallow brings. From better battery life to enhanced security and performance, the update promises to make the HTC One M8 an even more powerful and versatile device.
Stay tuned for more updates on the release date and other details about the Android Marshmallow update for the HTC One M8.
