Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016) Begins to Receive Android 7.0 Nougat

Although the Galaxy Tab S3 is Samsung's latest and greatest tablet right now, it looks like the older Tab A 10.1 from 2016 haven't been forgotten by the manufacturer yet. Although unexpected, it was a pleasure to see that the Korean giant has actually decided to roll out Nougat 7.0 to the Tab A. Keep in mind though, it is only fair for Samsung to roll out Nougat to the tablet, given that it was just released a year ago in May of 2016.

The update comes in at about 1.3GB with firmware version P580KXU1BQD9 for the Wi-Fi only version. In almost the same size, firmware version P585N0KOU1BQD9 will make its way onto the Wi-Fi + LTE variant as well. Even though it wasn't mentioned where the updates are being rolled out as of now, it should arrive on your tablet in roughly a week nevertheless. Keep checking manually if you are impatient, but rest assured that you will be prompted for downloading the file as soon as it gets to your smartphone anyway.
