Huawei recently released a beta test build of Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the Huawei P8 lite. And as per user reports who volunteered to test drive the upcoming software update, Marshmallow runs butter on the P8 lite.

If you’re interested in running Marshmallow on your Huawei P8 lite and don’t want to wait for the update to officially arrive you, you can also participate in the beta test programme and have the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update ready to install on your P8 lite as well.

And yes, of course, some of you would be concerned about root access on the P8 lite Marshmallow update. Well, thankfully, Chainfire’s systemless root works wonders here. You can just simply flash the latest SuperSU beta zip via TWRP recovery and your P8 lite will be rooted.

You can grab the latest SuperSU beta zip from the download link below, and follow the detailed step-by-step guide to flash SuperSU via TWRP recovery.
