Recommended Posts

Are you rocking a Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 9 or Nexus Player? Then happy days - Android 6.0 Marshmallow is now available for you to manually flash to your device (in the form of a factory image) and will also be deployed to your device in due course in the form of an over the air software update. Of course, it will also be pre-installed on the new Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P devices that will ship later this month.

The release, announced on the Official Android Blog, looks very much like Lollipop visually, but adds a host of new features including Google Now on tap, 'doze' functionality for improved battery life, an improved permissions system, new fingerprint APIs, an improved setup experience as well has a host of fixed and improvements under the hood.

If you can't wait for the OTA, head over to the factory images page (note that you'll need an unlocked bootloader to install the images - unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device).

Oh and Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 2012 users - you are out of luck this time round i'm afraid.

You would think they would have given Nexus 7 2012 a priority after the update to Lollipop turned mine into a slouch but on the other hand maybe they think we suffered enough.
