The Samsung Galaxy S7 Android Pie update is still unconfirmed and there is a good chance the devices will stay on Android Oreo. That said, there are some reasons for Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge and Galaxy S7 Active users to be excited about the future.
Samsung’s Android Pie update is starting to make significant progress as we dive deeper into the moon.
Galaxy S9 and Galaxy Note 9 Pie updates are gaining momentum and the company is now rolling out updates for the Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy S8, Galaxy A series and Galaxy Tab series.
The company has also endorsed Android Pie for a long list of mid-range and lesser-known devices with release dates going back to the fall.
Unfortunately, a bunch of names are missing from Samsung’s list of Pie upgrades. Among them are the Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge and Galaxy S7 Active, which are the company’s flagship Galaxy S phones from 2016.
The official Galaxy S7 Android Pie version is live and odds are good, these devices are officially staying on Android 8.0 Oreo.
Samsung usually keeps their phones up to date with major software upgrades for two years before dropping support. The devices are now three years old, which means they’re tight-lipped when it comes to Android Pie.
The company may not have worked on an official Android Pie update, but this does not mean that the support of the devices will end. We’ll continue to see software updates for the aging device, and there are already ways to get Android Pie and its features on your Galaxy S7.
With that in mind, if you’re a Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge or Galaxy S7 Active user, we’d like to mention some reasons why you shouldn’t be excited about the future.
