So, what's new in this version and which devices are getting the update? In a previous article, we discussed the new features of Android 6.0 Marshmallow. The content below is a list of devices updated to Android 6.0.

If you're using Samsung, check to see if your device is on this list. If it is, upgrade and experience the new features on the latest Android operating system.
With Sony, we have a total of 14 devices updated to Android 6.0, including the Sony Xperia Z Ultra GPE produced in 2013 (this is the earliest production model still receiving the 6.0 update).

Similar to Sony, HTC has several official device models allowed to update to Android 6.0, including the HTC Desire 816 and HTC Desire 820.
5. Motorola
Despite being one of the long-standing reputable phone manufacturers in the market, Motorola seems to have experienced a significant decline in market share. Below are the Motorola devices updated to Android 6.0.
6. Xiaomi
In the Chinese market, Xiaomi maintains its dominance in mobile device manufacturing. The market share of devices sold in Vietnam also increased in 2021, with notable mentions like Xiaomi Mi Note 2. This hot product is also on the list of devices updated to Android 6.0.
7. Huawei
Huawei takes the top spot with the largest number of devices updated to Android 6.0. Specifically, there are 14 different models, including Huawei Honor 4C and Huawei Ascend G7.
8. Lenovo

9. Asus
Most of Asus's Zenfone models fall into the mid-range price segment, ranging from about 5 to 8 million VND, making them a popular choice among users. In a previous article, we listed the best phones under 6 million VND for the second quarter, and the Asus Zenfone Selfie was one of them.
10. BlackBerry
After years of perseverance with the BlackBerry platform, it had to admit that its operating system has not truly excelled in terms of applications. BlackBerry made a significant change with the newcomer named BlackBerry Priv - the first smartphone bearing the BlackBerry logo running on the Android operating system to appear on the market. It is also the only BlackBerry phone currently on the list of devices updated to Android 6.0.
Note: Devices not listed here (outside the list of devices updated to Android 6.0 below) are not necessarily out of hope for upgrading to version 6.0; it's just that there hasn't been any confirmation from the manufacturer, hence no official information is available.
Thus, Android 6.0 Marshmallow will be updated on most Android devices. This is considered a perfect upgrade compared to previous versions, featuring functions like Doze Mode, which supports battery saving quite well. After the upgrade, readers can refer to the article on enabling battery saving on Android 6.0 with Doze Mode for Samsung, HTC, LG... hoping to bring interesting experiences to users.
