Nougat firmware for Samsung Galaxy Note5 and Galaxy Tab S2 is in the works as well

Earlier this week, there were reports that Samsung has started Nougat firmware development for the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge smartphones. Now, according to a new report, Nougat firmware for the Samsung Galaxy Note5 and Galaxy Tab S2 is in the works as well.

There's, however, no information on exactly when the update will be rolled out, with the report noting that it's likely going to take at-least a couple of months to get the update ready. So, that rules out a 2016 roll-out, which is the case with the Galaxy S6/S6 edge Nougat update as well.

Even the tech giant's latest Galaxy S series handsets - the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, for which an official Nougat beta program is already underway - will also not receive the update until 2017.
