Samsung owners who are on Verizon are lucky this week. Yesterday, the operator started pushing Marshmallow in an OTA update to the Galaxy S5 and today it's ready to roll out the same Android 6.0 to the Galaxy Tab S2.

The software version number is MMB29K.T817VVRU2BPE1 and it brings all of Marshmallow's goodies to the Tab S2, including Doze mode for longer battery life, per-app permissions for more control over your apps, and Google Now on Tap for... whatever you find Now on Tap is useful for. There are many more Android 6.0 features to enjoy too, as we've previously detailed.

This is the first Galaxy tab to get Marshmallow on Verizon and the operator details more changes to Samsung's TouchWiz UI in this version, including drawing in Memo, animations in the Gallery, and some new email sorting, searching, and editing options.

The update should start rolling out to the Tab S2 soon, but don't worry if it takes a couple of days to reach your tablet. It's probably going out in stages.
