Right on the heels of the Galaxy A7 (2017), the Galaxy A5 (2017) has also started to receive the much awaited Nougat 7.0 update. As the Galaxy A3 (2017) is receiving the same update as well, this one marks the end of Samsung' Nougat roll out for the latest Galaxy A 2017 series for now. However, not all regions receive updates at the same time, so it will still be a few weeks before all of the devices get updated to the Nougat OS.
We are not sure which regions apart from Russia are receiving the update as of now, but you can help us with that by informing us about it in the comments section, provided you already have received the update for your Galaxy A5 (2017). In case you haven't you can keep checking manually from the settings menu or just wait till the notification pops up; either way, you will most surely be getting this one, sooner or later.

Surprisingly enough, Samsung started rolling out the August security patch to the Galaxy J7 Prime on the first day of August, even before Google but that's a different report which you can read here. This report here is all about the Galaxy S7 Edge receiving the August security update from Samsung in Mexico, as per a report by SamMobile. If you have news regarding the same update making rounds in other regions as well, do inform us in the comments section.
The patch fixes 40 security issues in total for all Samsung smartphones, with 28 of them being from Google and the remaining 12 from Samsung. Firmware version on the OTA package is G935FXXU1DQH3 in Mexico, but it will vary slightly, depending on what country you are in and what version of the Galaxy S7 Edge you are using (carrier locked, unlocked, Exynos, Snapdragon etc.).

Although Google Nexus and Pixel devices have mostly been updated to the latest security patch for the month of August already, Samsung smartphones and tablets are not exactly known for getting fast updates from the OEM, especially when it comes to the company's low-mid range devices. However, that stereotypical thought process doesn't seem to apply anymore as Samsung has now released the August SMR for the mid-range Galaxy J7 Prime in a number of regions.
It is quite astonishing to see the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8 Plus still being stuck with the July security update, while the J7 Prime is being updated to the latest patch. Also to be noted is the fact that Samsung may have released the update even before Google this month as some users had received the August security patch as early as August 1. In addition to all the patches and fixes that Google has built into the update, Samsung has also added a dozen patches and fixes of its own.
