Android Nougat release date: when you'll get it and everything you need to know

Google's Android 7.0 Nougat is out now, and so is the 7.1 update

Update: Android Nougat is here and has recently rolled out on the Moto Z, Moto Z Force and some versions of the HTC 10, LG G5, Sony Xperia XZ and Xperia X Performance. Plus there's even a beta for the OnePlus 3 and Huawei has announced what phones will get the new software.

Android Nougat is Google's big refresh of its phone and tablet operating system – an OS that's been so thoroughly refined that the company is now more than halfway through the alphabet with names, at letter 14 of 26.

It won't stop at Android 7.0, either. Android 7.1 beta launched on Nexus devices in October and possible Android O ideas are being discovered ahead of 2017.

To prepare you for the Nougat updates, here's everything we know about the new Android 7.0 and Android 7.1 Nougat release date and features.
