It was March 9, 2016 when, to everyone’s amazement, Google released the first developer preview of Android 7.0 Nougat that later, after 5 experimental release, resulted in the official version number 7 of Android in August.
The update brought many deep changes in the code of the green little robot, some of whom waited for years.
The multiwindows, a new notification center, Doze update the Vulcan API to mention the most important.
Since the release, however, it was realized that would not be an easy step. The 5X and Nexus 6P were in spite of themselves the first guinea pigs to pass in the food processor, but with Google and Google Pixels Pixels XL that it was clear that something was wrong, especially in terms of performance and autonomy.
For Google Android devices we thought 7.1.1 to fix things, restoring smoothness and a good battery life, net of some minor bugs still present.
In fact, serious problems have arisen with the first smartphone “not Google” already on the market when they began to receive the update.
If you missed: LG updates G4 and V10 to Nougat, G3 retires
The striking example of HTC with HTC rollout 10 blocked on several occasions and also fixed in a hurry, Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge for which the update OTA has become a mirage and according to many has brought more harm than improvements; 7
we can also mention the “case” 8 Honor accompanied by long faces and complaints as a result of a significant reduction in the autonomy, even Huawei P9 was better before and finally Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge that some day consumes more and turns off earlier than expected.
This is a common situation, just be careful that after upgrading do a factory reset, so that your phone will run smooth and safe as it should.
Probably the only survivors were the Korean LG where the house has carefully refrained from mass release the update but rather focused only on LG G5.. the others will have to wait.
Another rare bird was OnePlus has updated its device without particular trouble, also because of a little-processing software.
