Some come from Nougat itself, but TouchWiz is getting a new coat of paint too.

      you need to go to your googleplaystore and seach for the new IOS for android, or the NOUGAT Version for android phones... then you need to install the application then after that you need to test if the Nougat Version is compatible to your Phone...

            Can't register for program if you have Verizon s7 edge. Pretty sure it has already filled up

              Perfect Samsung is da best, no other company can really compeat. Good

                ...and none of these features or the new UI will make it to the Note 5 and S6. Heck, I'd be surprised if they got Nougat before June! I am never going back to Samsung ever again. Had an S5, and not getting Marshmallow until May was terrible! Not to mention the completely different UI that ran on the S6 on Marshmallow. I tell you, if the Note7 hadn't BOMBED, the S7 wouldn't get this UI. Samsung is LITERALLY THE KING OF FRAGMENTATION.

                                    Touchwiz is technically HORRIBLE, full of garbage , bad coding.

                                    there is NO system ui tuner or status bar changes, etc.

                                    Samsung engineer team is horrible

                                      I dont like these "modern" user interfaces with only white background. I now have an old Samsung Note 2 with KitKat (4.4.2) and i like the dark theme it has.

                                      My next phone is going to be Oneplus 3T, it has a dark theme too.

                                        Nick.B, 24 Nov 2016have you seen some of the high-end lenovo laptops last 2 ye... moreIt's not better than the S7 edge. Worse display, I doubt the camera is indeed better, not waterproof, worse battery life as per GSMArena and it lacks the absolutely fantastic Samsung features:
                                        -Always-on Display
                                        -Scrolling screenshots with just the tap of a button+ easy sharing
                                        -Double-tap home button to launch camera, triple tap for something of your choice(I chose grayscale screen for battery saving)
                                        -Variable screen resolution for gaming and battery on Nougat

                                        Just to name a few. I actually thought most of Samsung's extra are gimmicks. Then I got the S7 and was I amazed about how much more it can do and how much easier than any other phone on the market.
