Owners of the Idol 3 smartphone from Alcatel is getting a refresh in terms of software version as the company releases its awaited Marshmallow update.
The Android 6.0 update is for the unlocked version of the Idol 3. Although, there’s no mention of either if it’s for the 4.7″ or the 5’5″ variant. Anyhow, if you have the smartphone, it’s best to check it out. The update weighs more than 1GB and includes the June 2016 Android security patch.
The Alcatel Idol 3 was exclusively released in the Philippines through Globe Telecom postpaid plan. Since the update is for the unlocked version, the update for Globe’s handset could be later than expected. See our review here.
