Android 7.0 is not for devices with Snapdragonami 800/801
Google recently introduced the final version of Android 7.0, which started to appear already to the first users Nexus 5X, 6P and 9 Nexus Player, Pixel C and General Mobile 4G. Sony has published, in turn, a list of their devices, which in the future will get nougat, and HTC has promised an update for models 10, One One M9 and A9. The new version of the system to 100% will also be this year’s flagowców Samsung, LG and Huawei and their selected devices last year.
So far, none of the manufacturers do not mention an update for older flagowców , which are based on a still quite powerful Snapdragon 800/801 systems. According to the @LlabTooFeR such a thing did not hear.
the creator software MaximusHD for HTC smartphones in one of the tweets revealed that Qualcomm did not prepare new graphics drivers for Snapdragonów series 800 and 801. this means that users based on their smartphones will not be able to enjoy the Android 7.0 Nougat (at least officially). Suffice it to mention that it comes with many popular models such as the HTC One M8, Samsung Galaxy S5 and LG G3.
We feel disappointed?
On the one hand, certainly so as most smartphones with older systems Qualcomm still works really well and certainly he would cope with Android 7.0. On the other hand, we can not require manufacturers that will issue updates for smartphones, which guaranteed the support period is over . The more that Google itself resigned already to continue to support the popular Nexus 5.
No manufacturer will not insist on Qualcomm that issued the relevant drivers, as the American giants certainly some time ago they determined that the time is over older models, and person wishing to Android 7.0 must have a new phone . Nexus 5 users, the Galaxy S5, HTC One M8 and LG G3 remains rely on unofficial software.
