UPDATE: T-Mobile has updated its HTC One M8 support page, but it doesn’t contain much in the way of new info.

 

Right on schedule, T-Mobile’s version of the HTC One M8 is receiving its Android 6.0 update.

Several One M8 owners are reporting that they’ve gotten their Android 6.0 update this morning. The update bumps the T-Mo One M8 to software version 6.20.531.5 and weighs in at a whopping 1.14GB, so you should probably find yourself a speedy Wi-Fi connection before starting the download.

As for what’s included, HTC One M8 owners can expect improved app permissions that let you decide what to share, Google Now on Tap, and Doze power management. T-Mobile hasn’t yet posted its full changelog, but I’ll be sure to update you when it goes live.

If you’ve got a T-Mobile-flavored HTC One M8 and you haven’t yet updated to Android 6.0, you can check for the update manually by going into Settings > About > Software update > Check now. The update to Android 6.0 is a big one, adding new features and bringing the T-Mobile One M8 to the latest version of Google’s mobile OS, so it’s worth grabbing as soon as you get the chance.

HTC One M8 owners, be sure to let us all know when Android 6.0 hits your device!
