Guess who’s next up for the Nougat update? It’s none other than the Galaxy S6 Edge Plus (model number SM-G928C). The device was spotted on Geekbench running Android 7.0 Nougat.
The phablet which came out way back in August 2015 with a humble build Android 5.1.1 Lollipop will finally be able to get a taste of what Google has to offer through Nougat. With 4GB of RAM and the octa-core Exynos 7420 processor powering the device, the S6 Edge Plus has plenty of horsepower to stay in the same stack as the current flagship, albeit a few places below.

But given that smartphone comes with a 5.7-inch 1440 sAMOLED display, the 3000mAh battery on board does a feeble job to just get you through the day. But there’s a small ray of hope out there as S6 Edge Plus owners may not have to carry around a battery bank around though.
With Nougat around the corner, you may just be able to see a small window of improvement in battery life thanks to Nougat’s improved doze feature. Nougat will also be bringing you a whole load of features including a revamped settings menu, Vulkan API and other performance improvements.
