Carriers can take a while to upgrade software on certain phones. They need to make sure everything passes their scrutiny first. If you really want it and are somewhat technically adept (can understand and follow instructions in a YouTube tutorial for your device/Carrier), just Root the phone and flash a Marshmallow ROM.

They sometime don't upgrade the software. That way people will change their smartphone for a newer version of Android. It might be worth asking the carriers if they plan on upgrading it.
