So I've had the Nougat update for two weeks. Some impressions in that time:
- I had to factory reset due to issues with Play Services (nil app issues now)
- Overall performance seems to have decreased (I am seeing some lags in system animation, notably in the stock Gallery app)
- Battery life is a mixed bag. My standby time has decreased (losing around 10% every 7 hours of standby), however when I am actually using the phone the battery life seems unchanged. Some additional background processes maybe?
- Camera performance, notably low-light, seems to have gotten worse. On Marshmallow the low-light performance was actually quite good, but with Nougat there is a lot more noise. That and, the Nougat camera app shows some lags, and looks (and feels) childish with all the swiping (Marshmallow was more 'mature' in that regard).
Overall the update is definitely usable. That said, if I knew what I know now with the Nougat update, I would have stayed on Marshmallow. Hope that helps some people still on the fence.

Mc2, 02 Jun 2017In the last few years samsung products have been terrible e... moreSoftware upgrade do not necessary will definitely improve on using the phone.
Some apps may not work, some issues do pop-up.
As in any upgrade, should there be a problem then saved the data.
Proceed to do Factory Reset, as this will resolved problems encountered after upgrade.
This could also be due to that some upgrade is for a particular model variant, which may not be for your phone.
Safe to upgrade is via OTA or thru phone Setting -> About device -> Update.
For apps, do refer to the apps developer for the update.
Write to them and as i had experienced before one developer go all out to enable a particular phone able to run their apps.

Most of the time Factory Reset will rectify any problems after the upgrade.

I factory-reset my G920F (128GB) and can confirm that all issues have been rectified.
Now trying to use the pre-installed Samsung Dictionary app (which was in the app-drawer since 5.0), which seems to have disappeared (still installed, just not in the drawer).

Lora18, 28 May 2017My s6's data connection keeps dropping. I need to go.flight... moreDo check the notification on the signal bars strength and whether it indicate 4G, H+, 3G.
If it keep switching between H+ and 3G &or missing, it mean the signal is no good.
If it is in one location, do check with your Telecom on this location signal.
Other option is to go to Setting -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names.
Ensure the APN setting are correct or not by either contact your Telecom support or reset the APN, which may be available in the Telecom website including facebook.
At the same time check with your Telecom on whether they have VoLTE.
S6 do have this feature as Voice over LTE, meaning that while you are talking on the phone and you can do surf internet at the same time. It is similar to HD voice.
Signal strength do use much battery power. If it is poor signal, battery would be drain faster. Normal before going out, i check the battery % and if below 50%, i put to charge using the original battery charger with fast charge. To know if it is a fast charger, there are 2 output voltage. It will able to charge 60% in 30 minutes, hence enough battery to use for the day. I do not use power bank due to the heat issue. Fast charge is better and safer.

Some minor issues on my G920F (128GB UK unbranded). There are some quirks on my S6 and Nougat that I didn't see before but that's more focused on apps getting updated as well.
While I dont have any battery issues I am seeing some stuttering on animation. Also having problems with Play Services everytime I open Gmail. I alsp noticed RAM management isnt as good as before.
Will give mine a factory reset to see if that helps (which I expect it will). Aside from the above I am happy; the update is perfectly usable.
