Android 6.0 Marshmallow OTA coming to Nexus 5 and 6 on 5 October

Canadian mobile service provider Telus has just revealed the updated release schedule for the forthcoming Android 6.0 Marshmallow update for Google's older flagship devices, Nexus 5 and Nexus 6. Meanwhile, the highly-rumoured Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P phones are expected to be launched at a grand media event on 29 September along with unveiling of the final version of Android 6.0.

One glance at the leaked software release schedule suggests that the Marshmallow OTA updates will start rolling out to the Nexus 5 and 6 on 5 October. However, Telus has just removed the listing of Android M update (see screenshot below) for the said Nexus devices from their chart for some reason.

Although Telus has noted that the scheduled dates for the Android M release might change, the chart listing gives us ample idea about which Android devices are likely to embrace the new update first. As Marshmallow is reportedly just a stability and performance improvement update, the Android maker could release the update much earlier than expected and at par with all previous Android release timeframes.
