    T-Mobile shares a list of Samsung smartphones that will receive the Android 7.0 Nougat update

    Earlier today, T-Mobile took to its official blog to share a list of its carrier-branded Samsung smartphones that will receive the much-anticipated 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.

    Don't be expecting a notification to arrive on your handset prompting you to install an upgrade anytime soon, though, as T-Mobile has only agreed to “support a new software update,” but has not started testing it yet. Our best guess is that we'll have to wait a good two-to-three months before we see any developments on the matter.

    In the meantime, feel free to check out the full list of devices that will receive the Nougat upgrade from T-Mobile below:

    • Samsung Galaxy S6
    • Samsung Galaxy S6 edge
    • Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+
    • Samsung Galaxy S7
    • Samsung Galaxy S7 edge
    • Samsung Galaxy Note 5
    • Samsung Galaxy Note 7

    As always, be sure to keep your browser pointed to SamMobile as we'll keep you up-to-date on all of the latest information, including inside scoops, on the upcoming firmware updates.
