        If you dont need the update you can just ignore it.
        This is one of the reason Samsung can not expect premium pricing.

            Why do you need updates?

            If you are on Jelly bean, or later, you have a fully featured smartphone OS.

            What are the features from newer versions of Android that you absolutely must have?

            I'm a little dissapointed that my K Zoom isnt getting updated, with RAW support. Lollipop had that built in. But Samsung didnt update the S5 or S6 to support RAW, as far as I know. If Samsung updated it with RAW, but kept it on kitkat, I wouldnt care about the OS version.

            I also have a sony Z3 with lollipop.
            Chrome Tabs show up in the task switcher, and that is nice. But you lost the tab handling within chrome, and that is a bit annoying. (same for Samsung Galaxy S5, I've tried it with lollipop).
            Batterylife and perfomance boosts that were promised have been very small acording to various tests, so you didnt loose much there, if anything at all.

            With Marshmallow, you will get the app permission settings, and that does make a bit of a difference. Google should have implemented that a long time ago, since there is so much malware in the play store.
            But I think Google should also implement that in the play-store, so you can choose when you install the app. Sure, it would require Marsmallow to change the settings after installing. But that is a setting you only do once.

            The promised batterylife improvements rely on the phone beeing unused for longer periods of time, and will inactivate certain features. If you use whatsapp and similar apps where you rely on constant connection, to be able to recieve calls or messages, you dont want that feature anyhow.

                        Think yourselves lucky. I've got lollipop on a s5 and nexus 7 and its awful. Runs at a snails pace and looks terrible. Stick to 4.4.4 if you can

                          Try nexus device android one or motorola device for timely update :) and windows phone is nothing infront of android. And coming to apple they have very less model that's why they will provide latest update

                              Android's eco system is very bad and FU**ING. Every year new Android version and OEMs? They are not providing updates to their devices even high-end phone are not getting update after 2/3 years!
                              Windows and apple are really awesome! Especially MY LOVE MICROSOFT WINDOWS! Ya whatever you say I'm their FANBOY. But this is true updation in windows is fab fantastic.. Remember that Lumia 520 which is 2 year old low end device which will get windows 10 after 6 months!
                              Wow after windows 10 I will get fully play store installed in my LUMIA. Awesome
                              Lag droid will get only lag after 2/3 year! Are lagdroids using their phone after 1 year? Or buying new lag droid?
