Motorola has posted on their company blog a full list of devices that they plan to upgrade to Android Nougat. The list is reasonably comprehensive although there are some notable devices missing, and should give those of you who have Motorola devices some hope for your phones. The post states that the Moto Z and the 4th generation Moto G will be the first devices to see the update and that will happen in Q4 of this year. As for the rest of the list, there isn’t a specific timeframe given.
Here is the full list of devices that will see Nougat at some point:
- Moto G (4th Gen)
- Moto G Plus (4th Gen)
- Moto G Play (4th Gen)
- Moto X Pure Edition (3rd Gen)
- Moto X Style
- Moto X Play
- Moto X Force
- Droid Turbo 2
- Droid Maxx 2
- Moto Z
- Moto Z Droid
- Moto Z Force Droid
- Moto Z Play
- Moto Z Play Droid
- Nexus 6 (updated directly by Google)
You’ll note that the entire Moto E lineup is not on the list and even the Moto X 2015 didn’t make the cut.
As for when we will see these updates, who knows really. It is likely it will be this time next year before all the devices actually see the update.
