Evan Blass, one of the greatest experts in technology leaks, published in his
Twitter account
that the launch of the new
version of Android Nougat 7.0 is planned for the month of August
.
If this information is true, throughout this month we can see Android Nougat 7.0 running on Nexus devices, which are the first to receive the update. The latest version for developers was Android Nougat 5, launched in the middle of July and demonstrating great stability as an operating system.
The bad news is that
the Nexus 5 will apparently be out of this update
. This we deduct from the
download page of
the official OTA of Android Nougat 7.0, where we can see that
they do not support the old Nexus 5
.
Google has us used to launch new hardware after launching a new version of Android, so we can surely see the new Nexus sooner than expected.
Android Nougat 7.0 will come loaded with news.
One of the most notable improvements is the appearance of the split screen, which allows you to
work with two applications simultaneously,
making the most of multitasking.
Regarding the notification panel, they have improved it to be able to respond directly in instant messaging applications without having to open the apps first. Although in the latest tests conducted in the version of Android developers Nougat 5, the inconvenience was detected that the notifications only showed the first received message (hopefully they have solved this bug in the final version).
This new version will also have a
fully customizable quick configuration menu
, in which we can change the shortcuts. This is intended to improve the accessibility of the device by offering with a single gesture the main options and configurations of the terminal.
The incorporation of
Doze mode
is based on limiting the background activity of the terminal while the screen is off. This mode is intended to give more life to the batteries and reduce consumption considerably.
Finally, another of the great novelties will be the
differentiation of the applications according to the installation origin
, that is, the user will be able to recognize which applications have been installed from Google Play and which have been installed manually using an APK file.
Now we just have to wait for companies to update their Android version of their terminals, good luck to everyone!
