The update simply installs the latest security patch and nothing more. Yet, it is recommended that those who own the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge devices should definitely install this update.
The latest update is still Marshmallow based, but we do hope Samsung to release the Android 7.0 Nougat to these devices soon.
Already, Galaxy S6 Active and S6 Edge Plus running Android 7.0 Nougat have been spotted online on benchmarking sites. Based on this, we expect the S6 and S6 Edge devices to follow suit and get updated to Nougat OS.
