Upgrade Tecno Camon C8 to the new HiOS + Android 6.0 Marshmallow

We have been expecting Android 6.0 Marshmallow for Tecno Camon C8 but instead Tecno just released a Beta update of its new HiOS of this device. If you don't know, HiOS is a new custom user interface (UI) for Tecno just like the XUI on infinix. It makes your phone look smart, different and also fun to use.
