What do you know - the Marshmallow beta for the Samsung Galaxy S6/S6 edge that was supposed to be exclusive to South Korea,
has started rolling out in the UK as well. The TouchWiz-zed Android 6.0
firmware comes in the form of a 1.2GB download and brings quite a few
changes.
The RAW image capture, which was rumored for previous updates is now
finally a reality, as well as the option to manually select a shutter
speed. Adding apps to a folder is now possible from within the folder
and lockscreen shortcuts are no longer limited to camera and dialer and
can now be customized.
The power menu has changed from the small pop-up window it used to be
for ages to a row of icons on a blurred background. And now that we've
mentioned power, the update brings back the option to disable fast
charging, if you're particularly concerned about your battery's health.
A redesign of the notification shade marks the departure from
Lollipop, much like the blue/green combo introduced us to it. The new
color scheme was featured in an earlier Samsung Marshmallow leak, and people seemed to believe it was fake on those grounds alone - well, apparently it's the real deal.
Certainly, those are cosmetic changes, and there's a lot going on under
the hood as well. The initial information was that beta testing will
last until January 18 and from then on the waiting game begins for the
official rollout.
