Looks like Motorola is looking to get better in their Android updates for their flagship devices this year. According to Motorola’s David Schuster, they have already started the process of bringing Android 6.0 Marshmallow update to the Moto X Pure Edition.
Moto X Pure Edition Review
Believe it or not, they are quite further along than we might think as they’re already starting to begin rolling it out to the Moto X Style & 2nd-gen Moto X in Brazil. So we should see plenty of goodies that come along w/ Marshmallow like Google Now On tap, Doze, App Standby, app permissions and more. See the full list of changes set to arrive for the Moto X Pure Edition on the very near future.
- A new Memory Manager that lets you check memory usage of all your installed apps
- Volume controls have been greatly improved
- Do not disturb button has been added to the quick settings panel for easy access.
- System UI Tuner will appear in the settings menu at the very bottom once enabled. It provides a few simple UI tweaks.
- Google Now on Tap allows contextual information to be delivered based on content on your screen with a long-press of the home key.
- Doze is a battery management feature that detects when your device is not in use and it will automatically go into a deep sleep state which saves your battery.
- App Standby reduces battery drain by putting seldom-used apps into a reduced activity state.
- Expandable Storage support allows for microSD cards to be used either in a portable storage or an internal storage mode. Portable storage allows your pictures, videos, audio and other media files to be stored. Internal storage allows both media storage along with apps and games but can not be used by other devices.
- RAM manager in settings which allows a consumer to view memory used by the system or an individual app over different time frames
- Automatic App backup not only backs up your apps but their associated data so when restored they will be the same as they were before
- Text selection has been improved
