BLU announces update to Android 6 Marshmallow for ONE device!

On its official Facebook page, the manufacturer BLU has finally published something about the update to Android 6 «Marshmallow». Surprisingly and incomprehensibly, he has indicated that this version of Android is now available for the BLU Studio Selfie 2. He has not mentioned anything else at all.

You won’t just be impatient that the company has talked about a single device. Many users will surely be annoyed that it was Selfie 2 that received this update. Other BLU devices that their customers paid much more for have not received this preference. The Selfie 2 is a low-end device, $ 70, without LTE support and with just 1 GB of RAM.

BLU ignora a sus «flagships»

Manufacturers typically prioritize upgrading to their most expensive devices, for obvious reasons. This is not the case here. The logical thing would have been for BLU to work first on updating more expensive equipment. The BLU Vivo XL or Vivo 5 also launched this year, for example. Even equipment from 2015, such as the spectacular BLU Pure XL or the Life One X would make more sense to upgrade than the Selfie 2. For now, all of them will have to continue with Android Lollipop.

The BLU company has not responded to user comments on Facebook about this strange decision. A month ago, we contacted them privately about this update to Marshmallow. By the same means, they mentioned the following to us:

We apologize for the long wait. Our software team is working really hard to update all of our devices. Once the update is available, we will let all of our fans know.

Lollipop was announced much faster last year

The update to Android Marshmallow for BLU devices has taken longer than expected. By this time last year, the update to Android Lollipop had already been announced for ten devices. Some were already receiving it. If BLU is working on the Android 6 update for other devices, hopefully the software is stable enough. Software updates in recent years have not been very well received by users. The failures they have presented have been the problem.

Those who want to keep an eye on the upgrade to Marshmallow for other BLU devices can “Like” your facebook page. In this way they will receive the news on their social profile. This article will also be updated when the company unveils new devices that will receive Android 6 and possible dates, if so.
