Because some manufacturers are stuck on kitkat for their roms does not justify the lack of marshmallow for 2015 devices, especially flagships and unfortunately judging from the face to face with the sys dev manager it seems highly unlikely we'll be getting it
Pony: I think for previous models, the main task for Flyme is to keep the firmware as stable and smooth as possible. Android 6 has not much modifications or highlights in functions. Some functions sucn as permission control, fingerprint, fast charge, etc are actually already acheived on Flyme 5. If we cannot upgrade to Android 6, we'll do our best to add more features to Flyme to compensate that. Now if that was the norm for flagships released in 2015 no one would mind but most are already getting marshmallow or have had it for a while. Now add on top of this the fact that Android N first developers preview has been released today, and try to justify being 1 version behind (which had quite some improvements over lollipop, and soon to be 2 with N) for a flagship, not cheap high end phones but full fledged flagship? You can't right? Well neither do I. | |

Meanwhile all of the following phones either have it or will soon http://www.androidauthority.com/ ... llow-update-649110/
And they're mostly ignoring custom roms which would make the list even bigger  | |

At this point I'd say it would be wise to skip Marshmallow to directly upgrade to N as it'll be out this year, and by the time we get either it would've been out for a while most likely.
