Now that Android 7.0 Nougat is officially out, the thing on most enthusiastic user's minds is whether their handset will be enjoying this iteration of Google's mobile OS and if so, when. Sadly, there is never a simple answer to this question, especially when you take into account all the regional and carrier versions of a given phone and their respective support life cycle.
Luckily T-mobile has released the list of Samsung devices that are ready to receive the latest Android 7.0 Nougat update. Unfortunately, the operator didn’t provide a timeframe for when it’s planning to start distributing the OTA, but at least we know it’s on the way. For reference though, T-Mobile was the first carrier to bring Android 5.1.1 to the Galaxy S6 (in just 39 days) but the third to deliver Marshmallow to that device, taking 189 days to cross the finish line. While the update has essentially zero chance of rolling out this year, at least owners of the following devices know they’ll get it eventually.
As expected the Galaxy S5 series and the Note 4 has been left out of the update list. It is possible that they may be included in the update list later as this is just the first list revealed by the company for the Android Nougat update.
