Hello. Does anyone know when Samsung will release Samsung Experience 8.1 (the one on the S8 and S8+) for Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge? I'm aware that you can unofficially download the launcher, but will Samsung actually release the update? Can the Galaxy S7 receive this new interface with the update android 7.1.1? Of course I speak in case the version 7.1.1 will be deployed to the Galaxy S7 / S7 edge.
New touchwiz on S8 is much heavier then one on S7.
Actually, we have much more optimized user interface, there is no reason to change that with semi finished product like one on S8.

Yes you are right. But the interface of the Galaxy S8 is more pleasant and modern than that of the Galaxy S7. Especially with the disappearance of the icon "applications" and the new restyled icons. Moreover, it would be interesting to receive Android 7.1.1 and in this case Samsung could integrate it with the Samsung Experience 8.1 interface that will be optimized for the Galaxy S7.
Samsung Experience 8.1 will come with Oreo ?

They said Likely(but the site said, not Samsung). And 8.1 is 7.x android, not 8. Are they so dumb to release old version of SE with the new os?

Yes you are right. SE 8.1 is for android 7.0 and SE 8.5 this is for android 7.1.1. I think Android 8.0 will be launched with SE 9.0 probably. The Galaxy S7 should get directly this interface.

The Galaxy S6 has not received HE 8.1 because at the time of the update to Android 7.0 this interface does not exist! The Galaxy S6 (like the Galaxy S7) received grace UX because it was the latest interface at the time! So the Galaxy S7 will receive android 8.0 with the latest interface (SE 9.x). The J7 2016 has received SE 8.1 because at the moment it is the most recent interface for android 7.0

They have 2 year policy for updates. So J7 2015 was released in June 2015 so it will receive update till around May 2017.So there are less chance of getting update.If Samsung will be fast in rolling out nougat update to all devices then we may get update.For marshmallow they were slow in rolling out update

You can get the j7 2016 2gb version for $150 and some places offer payment plans on them.. if the 2016 version gets android N then it would only be a $150 price to upgrade to official android N from the 2015 version if the 2015 doesnt get official android N.. but by the time android N comes out you could get it for cheaper brand new or buy a good conditioned used one for less than that...

Its called staying with the times if youre 2015 phone doesnt get the update. You cant expect a 2015 phone with barely just marshmallow to get android n.. what iam saying is if you want official n you need to buy a compatible phone.
---------- Post added at 10:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------
And to think of official android n on a phone that has 1.5 gb ram is just crazy when you need atleast 2gb of ram for everything

I need to know, is an J7 in 2015 guaranteed to get CM14? It can be sure J7 in 2016 should absolutely get CM14. And are you sure is the thread asking for custom ROMs or firmware? Sorry I never need to ask for firmware that I am an Android player loathing using firmware for long.

Maybe our dear samsung will update J7 Prime. Maybe not. Anybody know about an custom rom for Galaxy J7 Prime SM-G610? any developer team will develop a version of Android N for J7 Prime?,
nope..i dont think any Rom developer owns this device...
I'm assuming that this device will receive ported TW Roms and UO Lineage builds in the near future.
Official Nougat update for J7 prime SM-G610F soon ?
At first i had asked on live chat about the update on 1st april 2017, i thought it was a april's fool joke! Today my friend did the live chat on his J7 prime & we got the confirmation. I hope the nougat update will come with the new Samsung's Bixby AI assistant preinstalled. we will also get Samsung pay i guess cause the The j7 prime Chinese version model has Samsung pay! :fingers-crossed:
P.S :- sorry for any grammatical mistakes, if any

Mid-range gets 2 major OS update,for exemple the J7 2015 was released with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and Samsung do an update to Marshmallow 6.0.1 and in September,to Nougat
1 update for mid-range (J5 and J5 2016) is because they doesn't have an Exynos they have a Snapdragon 410

Bro. J7 2015 or the J700f/h Only got the official Marshmallow update but the No official Nougat updates. We do have custom ported Nougat ROMs for J7 2015 which I am running. And Ruturaj Madam is right. I don't think J7 (2016) will get an update now. Its already 2018 no updates yet.

Yes sir. I know about the Nougat upgrade for the J7 2016 variants. But I was just saying that the J7 2015 variant did not even receive the official Nougat variant. So maybe J7 2016 variants wont have the oreo official upgrade. But if it gets it, even better
The Samsung J700M is a J7 2015 though.

We'll never know for sure. But my bet is also for "no" - the J7s of 2015 and 2016 are pretty out-of-dated as of 2018. Damn marketing which demands constant, yearly smartphone releases.

I can live with Nougat because it is still powerful and their aren't much changes in Oreo which are too good to die for it.
