In addition to the HTC One M9, the Android 6.0 Marshmallow will also be coming to the HTC One M9+, and the HTC One M8, last year’s flagship smartphone of the Taiwanese handset maker.
And if the upcoming HTC One A9, also known as the HTC One Aero, is released before the end of the year as planned, it shall most likely be the fourth handset in the HTC roster to be confirmed for the Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
Google has remained true to its release pattern for its latest mobile operating system. After making the final preview of the Android 6.0 Marshmallow to its own line of Nexus devices, the search giant has seeded the software development kit to developers to test the latest OS on the current Nexus devices including the Nexus 5, the Nexus 6, the Nexus 9 and the Nexus Player.
After the developers are through with the firmware tests, the public rollout of the Android 6.0 Marshmallow to various smartphone models from the different handset makers shall commence.
Once the Android 6.0 Marshmallow rolls out to the Nexus devices, it is expected that the firmware update will be released to the latest smartphones and tablets of Samsung, Motorola, LG, and HTC before the rest of the Android phone makers get it.
