As noted in a recent report from Times News, some S7 and S7 Edge owners in the United Kingdom have already managed to download the OS upgrade, and even more are expected to get it next week.
Notably, while the people over at Samsung have confirmed the Nougat rollout, this doesn't mean that people can count on receiving the update simultaneously.
Exactly when the Android Nougat update will be released for specific S7 and S7 Edge units will still rely in part on the mobile carriers, according to what the folks over at Samsung have told curious device owners over on Twitter.
Still, this is good news for those in the U.S. as they may not have to wait for that much longer before they can take full advantage of the new features included in the OS update.
Among the additions smartphone users can look forward to trying out are different Performance Modes designed to adjust the device's capabilities in ways that are specifically suited to how they will be utilized. The available options users can choose from are Entertainment Mode, Game Mode, High Performance Mode and Optimized Mode.
Notifications have been tweaked as well, and device owners can also expect download speeds to improve with the update installed.
More news about the Android Nougat OS update should be made available soon.
