We know that the high-end will be the first to update to the new version of the operating system. But the truth is that many of us find it more interesting to know when mid-range mobiles will be updated, because after all they are the ones that many users have. Now, new data arrives that tell us that the tests of Android 7.0 Nougat have begun on the Samsung Galaxy A5. In theory, it would be the first version of the mobile.
Android 7 on the Samsung Galaxy A5
We already said the mobiles that would receive Android 7.0 Nougat in a version that would have precisely the same features as the Samsung Galaxy S7. We also talk about Samsung mobiles that, in addition to those, would sooner or later receive the update to Android 7.0 Nougat. However, now one that was not on these lists has appeared, the original Samsung Galaxy A5, or so it seems. According to the Australian operator Optus, the Samsung Galaxy A5 would have already started the firmware testing process Android 7.0 Nougat. Since there is no talk of the 2017 version (the last one presented), nor of the 2016 version, the one from last year, it seems that it could be the original version from the year 2015 It had a metal casing. In fact, it was Samsung's first metallic smartphone.
If so, it would undoubtedly be great news, because we did not expect this mobile to be updated to the new version. Of course, the fact that the mobile that appears in the Optus lists does not have reference to the generation to which it belongs, does not mean that it is not a Samsung Galaxy A5 from 2016, for instance. In any case, it would not be negative if last year's mobile started the tests with Android 7.0 Nougat. Or at least, that it is going to start them, because as of the date that is said is February, and it has just begun.
It may be one of the following phones to update to Android 7.0 Nougat. It is not a high-end, but it is a very sold mobile, with premium features, such as its design, and that has been sold in large quantities because it has a cheaper price than the flagships.
