No news on the Tab S 10.5 still however the Tab S2 just got marshmallow about a week ago so hopefully we will get it soon. It is May now, so I guess we'll wait and see. It would help performance and battery life so it would be a nice improvement on what we already have. If anyone has any news, post it!

I just sent them a tweet -- again -- asking about the Tab S, and I mentioned that the TS2 just got 6.x.

Well, here is a reply from Samsung Canada, but it's safe to assume if any of the other Samsung accounts I tweeted to answer, it'll probably be the same exact thing:
You can see my original tweet that I sent on February 17th, and can be seen above.

So does that mean we are getting it for sure? Or should we not get our hopes up..

At this point, I wouldn't get your hopes up. And as I said in an earlier post:
I am on the verge of assuming that Samsung is now pulling the old Sony/Sony-Ericsson, where if you wanted the new firmware, they told you to buy the newer model(s).

I enjoyed the Tab S while I had it, but I don't regret selling it back in January and getting a Pixel C. I hope the Tab S will get MM soon for current owners, but I really wasn't about to wait since there was no real guarantee it'd get it in April or even at all.
I have no issues with my tab s at this point. I buy the tablet based on the software available at purchase and not with the expectation that I will get new software in the future.

The Tab S is their flagship line of tablets, and those of us with TS1 -- for lack of better abbreviation -- should be getting Marshmallow, we shouldn't be forced to buy the TS2 just to get Marshmallow!
If my Note 4 is getting Marshmallow this 10.5 Tab should too. Should run it no problem as far as I can see.
Rather or not the device can run the os has never been the issue. Its just a matter of when / if Samsung decides to invest the resources to develop it and roll it out.

Nothing yet on my wife's Tab S 10.5 (T-800). Would be nice to see, but not holding my breath.
Following the thread in case anyone comes up with anything solid.

That would only be true for the LTE version of the Tab S, those of us with the WiFi only version are not tied to a carrier.

Here's the official Samsung site:
Official Samsung® Android Updates & Firmwares
Scrolling down to tablets......Tab S......you can see no mention of 6.0 even in the works, whi9e Tab S2 has been rolled out.
I think it's safe to conclude that Samsung won't be putting resources into upgrading the Tab S.
