Posted on a thread, ASUS said that the Marshmallow rollout is scheduled for a June 13 release which is today. They also added that it will take more or less one week to fully auto push the update so if you’re an eager beaver then you can manually check your phone by heading to Settings>About>System Update.

They also warned users that internal storage will slightly decrease after the update so it’s recommended to back-up data and perform other safety precautions to avoid file loss. This, in addition to more changes, is found below from the company’s release notes:

  • Software update to Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Internal storage will decrease slightly after update, it is recommended back-up data and relocate media files (pictures & vides) to SD card to reserve enough storage before starting the software update.
