            Never updates old devices and copies most of the ideas from others

              AnonD-634610, 21 Jan 2017Oh Sony, u did it again. Pffftt LOL.Did better than Samsung AGAIN? As always, Samsung sucks LOL

                Anonymous, 21 Jan 2017Lol. Terrible headphone with huge bass and lacks clarity.Have you even tried one? I guess you own a cheap plastic low quality headphones that is inferior to what Sony offers, and try to bash it for being superior lol. Samsung can't even make a "decent" sounding headsets for their phones. My $5 metal earphones sounds better than the Note 7's included earphones lol

                    Anonymous, 21 Jan 2017Updated to marshmallow months ago."Months ago" how many? 7? Hahaha! Nice try though

                      Dinuk, 21 Jan 2017Sony as provided a very NOUGAT update, not up to the mark b... moreAnd tell me if Samsung never halted the Nougat update for the S7 and S7 Edge

                        Shadow Snypa786, 21 Jan 2017The only reason most people want Nougat for the samsung dev... moreWe don't really care if it's first because it wasn't greatly implemented. Google's Split Screen supports more apps than TouchWiz-based split screen. It was first from Samsung, but Google did it better, and which one do people prefer, the first one or the better one? Besides, split screen multitasking of Samsung was inspired by Sony's overlay apps, which was also first implemented by Sony, and works better than Samsung's. Nougat isn't a major update for Samsung users because the new DisGrace UX still sucks behind the Android gameplay of others, even Chinese manufacturers have better skinned Android version than Samsung, how pathetic, and people say Samsung has the best software in the world? That joke never gets old lol

                          Shadow Snypa786, 21 Jan 2017And i tell you where Air View is, its on samsung phablets n... moreSo they limited it to the Note series because it's useless. Sony never implements useless features, and Air View is one. Let me tell you, that split screen multitasking of Samsung was actually inspired by Sony's overlay apps. U think Sony will implement such useless features from Samsung? Wake up dude, Samsung might implement stereo speakers, Hi-Res audio support, side-mounted fingerprint scanner, 13mp front facing camera, faster software updates, gyro-based EIS, laser autofocus, RGBC-IR sensor, and 4K display, and say that Samsung implemented it better as an excuse

                                Shadow Snypa786, 21 Jan 2017The only reason most people want Nougat for the samsung dev... moreCould you provide a list of S7 features please, so all could actually see if and why you claim ToucWizz has more features than Sonys UI build?
                                All I see is Sonys missing some TouchWizz and Samsung missing some Sonys features.
                                But exact numbers would be helpfull for your claim.

                                  AnonD-491921, 20 Jan 2017Yes they started updating Galaxy S7 and Edge only a few day... moreYou right you not missing out on much Vulkan API was on the S6 first it one of the 1st phones to use it, multi window was on galaxy s3 and alot of websites and people prefer samsungs implementation to say android does it better isnt true.

                                  I rather have the lower resolution feature so the screen doesnt demand more from the GPU so games run smoother and saves battery and the smoother U.I

                                    Tourettes Guy, 20 Jan 20171. Nobody likes iPhone, especially it's OS. Android is an o... moreAnd i tell you where Air View is, its on samsung phablets now like the Note 4, Note 5 and even was on the Note 7 so dont worry that feature is still here to stay you guys probably get it on Sony devices is 2018 or 2019 and then you probably say Sony implemented it better as en excuse :D

                                      Its a well known fact that users will have bugs with updates depending on their prior usage and app patterns.
                                      Hard reset after update solves all the problems, if existant.
                                      Some having update working perfectly and some not testifies to that.
                                      X family Nougat updates work flawlessly as reported.

                                      Sony is almost finished with their Nougat update portfolio while some other havent even began to roll out, and only XA family remains.
                                      Why is Z5 family update halted, nobody knows, but I doubt its because of some bugs ,as many users already reported stable updates with no bugs, while those with bugs should do hard resets to make it all work properly.

                                      All in all, Sony already almost done with updating their entire Nougat portfolio, and already started 7.1.1 update on X.
                                      While others....meh.

Had it since galaxy S3 which was 5 years ago. Nougat is not a msaaive upgrade for people who dont have samsung devices its huge but not for samsung users
