No Android 7.0 Nougat for Smartphones with Snapdragon 800/801

 By Vaibhav Jain on August 26, 2016       

If you have a Smartphone with Snapdragon 800 or Snapdragon 801 chipsets, You might be wondering whether Your Smartphone will get Android 7.0 Nougat Update or Not, Well The Answer is "NO".



According to recent reports Qualcomm will not be releasing updates to the graphic drivers on the Snapdragon 800 and the Snapdragon 801 chipsets. This might be the reason Why HTC One M8 and the Nexus 5 will not receive Nougat.

Qualcomm will not release graphics drivers for 800/801 CPUs.So HTC One M8 and other devices based on this CPU won't get official Android 7.0

Other Smartphone that are affected by Qualcomm's decision include the Samsung Galaxy S5, Samsung Galaxy Note 3, LG G3, the Sony Xperia Z3.

OEM's are not to be blamed if your SD 800/801 Smartphone is not getting Nougat, And even if Qualcomm had decided to update the drivers, there is no guarantee that OEM's gonna provide the update.

This is the year of Motorola! At least it seems so... we've seen three Moto G4 devices, two Moto Zs and it seems we will get two Moto E3 devices this year!

The new Moto E3 Power has gone on sale in Hong Kong for $140 dollars and it's a "maxx" version of the Moto E3 announced some weeks ago. Motorola powered this phone with a 3500mAH monster battery while other specs remain the same.

The E3 Power comes with a 5" HD screen, a front facing speaker and a quad-core MediaTek processor with 2GB of RAM. And it will run Marshmallow, with a quick update to Android 7.0 most likely.

XT1706 is its model number and we will know more about it soon. Will you choose this over the regular Moto E3?
