Update (4/11/16): T-Mobile is now rolling out Marshmallow for the LG V10!

Original Story (4/8/16):

According to a new post on Twitter from Des Smith, a product manager with T-Mobile, the carrier will be rolling out the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update to the LG V10 starting next week. This comes a little more than two months after T-Mobile started the upgrade process to Marshmallow for last year's flagship, the LG G4. Since then, LG also released their newest flagship device, the LG G5.

No details were shared about what the upgrade may include outside of the normal Marshmallow features and updates like Doze, Now On Tap, and the changes to app permissions. Since the LG UI on the LG V10 was essentially the same as what came on the LG G4, this upgrade should be similar. The one thing that is different is the second screen that LG makes available on the LG V10, but owners who received the Marshmallow update on their LG V10 with other carriers have not noted any issues.

Guess who should start seeing #Android #Marshmallow next week! #LGV10 👍😄🤘#tmobile pic.twitter.com/jRR7cuUjzU
