Android 7.0 Nougat The Good The Bad And The Ugly Side Of It by nikefoot: 7:56am On Aug 31, 2016
A few days ago, Google launched this year's significant update to Android, an operating system that powers over 80 percent phones worldwide.

Although the upgrade is not going to come to all these users, it will certainly reach you if you have the existing generation high end or the Nexus phone.
The crucial question, nevertheless, is: what does it give users? Google, certainly, calls it the sweetest upgrade to Android up until now. And in many methods, the company is right

THE GOOD
The very best way to explain Nougat is that it is the best of all things Android, particularly the advantages. Given that Android Lollipop, thanks to easy way of use as well as appearances, Android has actually exceeded Apple's iOS that powers iPhones. Last year, Marshmallow advanced the same course that was trodden by Lollipop, and this year Nougat followed the two.
Instead of playing with the standard user interface - flat layers with everything from notifications to apps positioned within reach - with the Nougat, Google has actually aimed to add some of the features that other phone companies have actually currently added to their versions of the Android. This is a welcome move as it assists Nougat assimilate the very best concepts that currently exist on the planet of Android, and then provide them to customers by default.
It also makes the Android a bit more effective and user-friendly. With the Nougat, you can respond to the alerts straight from the home screen. No need to open the app. On Nougat, you quickly respond 'Yes' or 'No' to a message on WhatsApp.
Popularised by Samsung in its high-end Galaxy phones, the multi-window mode was currently offered in several Android phones. However in Nougat, Google makes it a part of the default bundle. Although not everybody will find opening 2 windows side by side helpful, it has its beauty.
A better feature, however, is the double tap on multitasking button which enables one to rapidly switch in between the two newest apps. This is completely fantastic and will make changing in between an open email and a related SMS simple and easy.
Then there are under-the-hood enhancements. The snooze function, which assists in saving battery, has actually been enhanced in Nougat. The results too are appealing. It may not still be as effective as the iPhone's iOS, the Android Nougat does assist in battery life performance.
In real usage, the battery life enhancements could be as high as 20%.

None of these functions are groundbreaking however they polish Android in the areas where it could do with some enhancements. Functions like the multi-window also boost its reputation as an OS that lets you operate in a much better way compared to the iOS, which in spite of recent enhancements, can feel a bit claustrophobic.

THE BAD
When you begin utilizing the Android Nougat, even if you like what you see and experience, there is a sticking around feeling of 'meh'. The reason is that it does not precisely include a lot of brand-new stuff in regards to visuals. The interface and animations are basically just like what you get with the Marshmallow. The days when your old phone would appear brand-new because of the new Android upgrade are gone. Which feels a little boring.
The Nougat is a strong and impressive OS but it is also dull. If you are amongst the fortunate ones who will get the upgrade, you will understand that it is all the same. Which is not a good sensation, particularly thinking about the fact that Android users are now stuck with comparable interfaces considering that the launch of Android Lollipop, which came out in 2014. The Lollipop in itself followed a design that streamed from what Google presented in Ice Cream Sandwich in 2011.

THE UGLY
The ugliest part of the Android Nougat stays the usual problem of the upgrade. This is an issue that has actually pestered Android considering that the very start. Although Nougat is out, few individuals are going to get the upgrade. For instance, just the Google Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P and handful of Infinix and Tecno phone users will get it in Nigeria. Sure, users of some of the high-end Android phones, like the Samsung Galaxy S7 will likewise get it, however, that will take place after some hold-up and in a modified form that will be totally different from how Google visualized it.
Yes, the Nougat is a strong Android upgrade. It is absolutely better than the iOS in its performance and versatility. However, it's a pity that just a portion of Android users will get to taste it.
