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.
Lenovo
announced the roll out of the Android Marshmallow 6.0 update on its officialforums. “We expect Marshmallow to be rolling out for the Vibe P1, P1A42,
over the next few days,” the post reads. Scrolling down the post shows users in India
reporting that they have started receiving the Marshmallow update on their
phones.
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 update is 1.67GB in
size so we would advise you to be connected to a Wi-Fi network. The Vibe P1 is the third Lenovo phone to
get the Marshmallow update after the K3 Note, 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.

The
Lenovo Vibe P1 features a 5.5-inch 1080p display with Gorilla Glass 3
protection, and 1.5GHz Snapdragon 615 64-bit octa-core processor, 2GB RAM, and
32GB internal storage, along with microSD card slot.
The
smartphone also features a 13-megapixel rear camera, 5-megapixel selfie camera,
fingerprint sensor, and connectivity options like dual-SIM card slots, 4G LTE
support, NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 4.1 LE and GPS.
Lenovo had launched the
Vibe P1 last year for Rs 15,999, and the smartphone is now available online for

comes with quick charging capabilities. It also supports OTG charging, which
essentially turns the handset into a power bank.
