Google's LG Nexus 5 has received Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow OTA (Over-The-Air) update. The new version of the firmware has been rolled out to the Nexus series a few days after Android One devices got it.
Google Nexus 5 was one of the first devices to receive Android 6.0 Marshmallow, so it didn't come as a surprise when it got latest version of the firmware. It is still not known if other Google devices like Nexus 6, Nexus 7 (2013), Nexus 9 and Nexus Player have received it.
The new version measuring 96.3 MB improves performance and stability, and fixes bugs. However, it may be noted that "downloading updates over a mobile network or while roaming may cause additional charges."
