Android currently is the most popular Operating system in the world, with over one Billion people using Android Platform on their smartphones and tablets. Recently the company launched the Android Marshmallow version that is excellent and updated by almost all users on their devices. In the process of redefining its next version, Android is all set to launch its N update to the Android world.
Android Version Nougat 7.0 in Galaxy S8
Android fans have been waiting eagerly for a few months now for the Android 7.0 Nougat it’s the latest iteration of the Android mobile operating system. However, based on the reports Neurogadget warns some of the Samsung users that are depending on the new model of the smartphone they own, this might take a while before they get their hands on Android 7.0 Nougat update.
Samsung being the biggest smartphone manufacturer in the world is somewhat infamous for its late Android updates. Android 6.0 Marshmallow version in S7 and S7 Edge, the predecessor to Nougat version, was made available to the consumers only after five months after its launch. The reason behind it might be Samsung adjusting its compatibility match with an Android update. As the time comes closer and closer, the final Android 7.0 AOSP build is all set to be release in September, based on the reports Neurogadget suggests than Android 7.0 Nougat may not be released for some of Samsung Galaxy handsets until early 2017.
As per reports on the website, it indicates that Android Nougat could be possibly released for Galaxy Note 6, followed by other Galaxy S series models. The last on the list of Samsung models are Galaxy S6, the S6 Edge, and the S6 Edge+. It’s highly expected that the upcoming Galaxy S8 and Samsung Galaxy S8 Edge are scheduled to ship with Android 7.0 Nougat.
Android Nougat 7.0 is the future version of Android Operating System which offers modifying features like improved battery saver mode, multiple window support and much more. Neurogadget is all set to launch the Android Nougat 7.0 this month, but if you are still impatient for Final release, then you test Andriod N features by downloading developers preview 5. The preview is only available for Nexus Devices and Sony Xperia 3.
Samsung has always not been speedy when it comes to rolling out Android updates and as users, we have to live with it sadly, the Samsung Android 7.0 update for Samsung Galaxy S8 is the much-needed upgrade as it has taken a while since the last update. The next time frame as decided by the company will be next year, so most probably S8 will ship with Android Version Nougat 7.0. But as usual, we have to wait for the official announcement before we make any claims. As samsung did in their previous series samsung galaxy s9 will also come with new android version.
From the view of the consumer, this will be a major update as most of the issues will be fixed that’s resulted with Marshmallow version. And it will be interesting to see how it performs with the latest technology Samsung Galaxy S8 has to offer. So let’s wait for few more updates hopefully things will develop, and some new announcements will be made.
