Most devices are currently running on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update. Of the 11 models of Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, a total of 1065 firmware updates have been recorded as of this writing.

The official list of recipients revealed by Samsung will begin to get the Marshmallow update in January 2016. Here is a complete list of Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge models to receive the official Android 6.0 Marshmallow:

Android 6.0 Marshmallow update is bringing Google Now on Tap, power saver Doze, improved app permissions, revamped app drawer, support for fingerprint scanner, USB Type-C and Android Pay, greater volume controls, and more.

Apps Permissions provides users better control over permissions. Users are given the option to allow or deny permissions. It is significant to take note that Permissions are demanded the first time users try to use a feature, not at the point of installation.

App drawer gets an overhauled design. Horizontal scrolling is ditched over vertical scrolling with recently used apps on top of the menu.
