Samsung confirmed the release of Android 7.0 Nougat for its devices last year. As we enter 2017, we can hope to download the new version of Android to our devices.

NOTE: If you do not want to read the complete article, you can download the latest Samsung firmware from SamMobile.

Android Nougat for Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

What to expect in Android Nougat for Samsung devices?

The new Android version by Samsung will feature the new Grace UX. Grace UX is a somewhat refined looking version of Samsung’s Android skin Touchwiz. We have an in depth look at the Grace UX that changes the look and feel of the software on the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge. You’ll quickly notice slight changes to the UI’s color scheme. You can get a feel for these changes in the video below.

Moreover, you can expect quicker multitasking. Android Nougat has native support for multi-window and Samsung will enhance it further with their personal tweaks (as seen on the Note series). Multitasking using multiple windows is great fun!  For example, say you’re in Gmail but need to look something up in Chrome to include in an email. You can open Chrome, find and copy a link, then double-tap the recent apps button and your device will switch back to Gmail.

Another great feature in the new Android version is option to put rogue apps to sleep! This will stop that app from functioning altogether (without uninstalling it). This is a great power-saving feature and a godsend for users with older devices.
