Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 Begins Receiving Android Nougat 7.0 in the US

As had been predicted by a leaked piece of information known as the Samsung Nougat "roadmap" quite a while back, the Tab S2 has just started to receive Android Nougat 7.0 via OTA updates in the United States. Model number SM-T713 was released back in the November of 2015, so it's good to see that Samsung is still supporting the tablet with the latest Android OS update. It might not be the most timely update ever, but Samsung isn't known for that either!

Firmware version T713XXU2BQD3 will be making its way onto your Galaxy Tab S2 8.0 tablets in the US anytime now, if it hasn't already. Check from the Software Updates section, but it isn't really necessary though, given the fact that you will be prompted automatically to update your phone as soon as it arrives. The source of the news also reports that the update will not enable the Always On display functionality on the tablet, in spite of the device sporting a perfectly capable AMOLED panel. I guess they consider the feature to be a smartphone exclusive for now.
