Versi also said while answering to a query that the Sprint variant of HTC One M8 in Hong Kong will get the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update some time next week.
@moversi I received an update on my Sprint M8 HK which said my phone would be prepared for the 6.0 update. Is it coming? — Mario (@NoleMario15) January 15, 2016
