T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 is now being updated to Android 6.0 Marshmallow

A couple of months ago, Samsung started rolling out an official Android Marshmallow update for the international version of the Galaxy S5 - the company's flagship smartphone of 2014. Not long after that, Sprint updated its variants of the handset, and, now, T-Mobile is also bringing Marshmallow to its Galaxy S5.

Owners of T-Mobile's Samsung Galaxy S5 should get the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update over the air beginning today, May 23. The update weighs in at a bit over 1 GB, and, besides bringing all the good stuff that Marshmallow has to offer, it includes a "device slowness fix", as well as the May Android security patch.

Now over 2 years old, the Samsung Galaxy S5 can still be purchased from T-Mobile, but only as a certified pre-owned device - costing $299.99 outright. Whether or not customers are still interested in buying the Galaxy S5, it's good to see that a device which initially ran Android 4.4. KitKat is being updated to Marshmallow, isn't it?
