El Samsung Galaxy S7, despite having been on the market for a few years, has just been upgraded to Android Oreo, the latest version of Google's operating system that we can find on the market.

Samsung Galaxy S7 with Android Oreo, what to expect from its final update

Android Oreo design on the Galaxy S7

If we look exclusively at the design, we can see that it is practically the same as the one we found in Android Nougat, so at first it seems that there is not much new.

However, we can find some improvements that are not seen at first glance but that can make our lives a little easier. Thus, for example, we find news about the notifications Of applications. Now you can have more control over the applications that can send us notifications, as well as the type of notifications they can send you. Something that is very useful if you are constantly receiving notices.

New APIs for autofilling our data have also arrived. This means that we can save in the cloud our passwords, so we don't have to keep entering them over and over again. It is a very simple function that can be very helpful.

Improved battery life with Oreo on the S7

Something that you will also notice when you install the Oreo update is that the battery of your smartphone lasts a little longer. Obviously, the battery capacity is exactly the same, but the new version of the operating system has been optimized so that the applications consume less when used. This means that although we have the same Galaxy S7 as two years ago, we can see how the autonomy improves considerably.

In return, the main problems we found are that the update process is very slow and that the applications also slow down a bit.

The last big update of the Samsung S7

El Samsung Galaxy S7 It is a smartphone that has been on the market for two years now, and there are few devices from this time that are still receiving updates to the new versions of Android. Samsung has decided to update this device, but we must know that it will be the last big update that arrives for them. In the event that, when new versions of the operating system come out, you want to continue enjoying them, you will have no choice but to change your device for a slightly more modern one.
