Any Marshmallow gooieness for Nexus 7 2013?

Based off of Google's OS update periods for Nexus devices, the Nexus 7 2013 is done in Q3 2015, Marshmallow will probably be out until Q4. And it hasn't gotten any of the previews, so it seems unlikely that it'll get official support, unfortunately
 
We don't have an official confirmation, but based on this chart I posted awhile back (based on the new update guidelines), Marshmallow should be the last major update that the Nexus 5 2013 and Nexus 7 2013 receive officially.

(obviously 5.2 is wrong now, otherwise should be good to go).

I believe Android M will be the last update for the N7 2013. Honestly it works great with the 3rd 5.1.1 update we have now. There's not that many new features that can be utilized on Android M except Doze. I'm happy now and probably will be for a long time, If it ain't broke don't fix it!

I really want Doze, personally. I can't wait. I can't believe people don't seem excited about that feature.

That's the main reason I want M on my N7 as well. It's easily the biggest, most important improvement to Android in a long time.
 
Let the release happen the development community will port it

People were (me included) excited about Project Volta. It turned out to be humbug. These battery savings concepts/projects/features are only for show to make people believe they put an effort into battery optimizations, which they of course don't. Look at the "mobile radio active" issue, a year for addressing it is pathetic.

Yeah, but unless it doesn't flat out do what they say they are doing, it will work. It just depends how often your phones sits, untouched.

I tried out M dev preview on my nexus 5, Doze is way pass my expectation. I believe this will be a different story than Volta.
