After rolling out Android Marshmallow to LG G4, the company is now prepping to release the update to 2014 flagship smartphone G3.

Polish blog Tablety citing sources inside LG has claimed that the testing of Android Marshmallow update for G4 has reached the final phase.

If things go as planned, the company is expected to release the new Android M to LG G3 around mid-December.

LG G3 was last updated to Lollipop 5.0.2 in December 2014, but never got incremental software v5.1.1. Now, the company will directly upgrade the device to the new Android Marshmallow in a few weeks time starting with Poland and expand to other regions similar to G4's update roll-out scheme.
