Android Nougat Update for Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge!

Despite Samsung UK’s announcement of a delayed update at the beginning of this week, the South Korean electronics giant started rolling out the Android Nougat update for Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge mobile phones in Europe. Vodafone customers in countries such as Bulgaria, Austria, Hungary, Cyprus, Greece, Croatia, Turkey, Italy, Netherlands, Ireland, United Kingdom, and Romania, as well as Swisscom customers in Switzerland, can get Google’s latest operating system.

If you own a Galaxy S6 Edge with the mode number SM-G925F in one of these markets, you can update your Samsung phone manually. The new Android Nougat update can be checked under Settings > About device > Download updates manually. The update brings the Android 7.0 features like quick switching between apps, Multi-Window mode, new and cute emojis, improved power saving mode, bundled notifications, direct reply, and more.

The company is rolling out the Android 7.0 update step by step. However, it can take one week to several weeks, until the Android Nougat update is delivered to all Galaxy S6 smartphones. The Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge Nougat OTA runs around 1.3GB in size, so make sure to use WiFi to download this.
