Lenovo has started seeding the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update to the users of the Vibe P1. The update for the Lenovo phone comes almost two weeks after the company seeded the update to the A7000.
The notification was abruptly made in one of the company's consumer forum sites, where an admin stated: "We expect Marshmallow to be rolling out for the Vibe P1, P1A42, over the next few days. Please remember to back up all necessary contacts and files before clearing your cache and updating your device. It is also recommended to factory reset your device after updating."
Some users claim they have already started receiving the update and some early bird lucky ones got the update even before this notification came along. The Vibe P1 is the third Lenovo phone to get the Marshmallow update after the K3 Note (international version), followed by the A7000 that received the update in select regions only till now.
Although Motorola devices that are now owned by Lenovo have received swift updates for its range of devices like the Moto E, Moto G and Moto X, Lenovo has been slow in seeding the Marshmallow update to some of its non-Moto devices.
The OTA rollout has just begun, so it may be a while before the update hits your device. If you want to check manually for the update, head over to Settings>About Phone>System Updates and check if there is an update available. If not you will just have to be patient.
