SamMobile confirmed two months ago that Samsung had begun work on the Android 7.0 Nougat-based firmware for the Galaxy Tab S2. Now, it looks like the update is very close since the Galaxy Tab S2 with Nougat on board has just been spotted on the website of the WiFi Alliance.

According to the source mentioned above, "All 2015 models of the Galaxy Tab S2 – SM-T810, SM-T815 and SM-T817 – have paid a visit to the Wi-Fi Alliance for certification purposes." The successor of the Galaxy Tab S2 is expected to surface next month, at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. However, we hope to see the update for the models mentioned above becoming available before MWC 2017.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 arrived on the market loaded with Android 5.0 Lollipop. Available in 8-inch and 9.7-inch variants, it has 3 GB RAM, 32 GB or 64 GB internal storage, and is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 processor or the Samsung-built Exynos 5433 Octa.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
