Back in November, Samsung started beta testing the Nougat update for the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. Since then, it has rolled out several updates to squash bugs and answer feedback, but it looks like the beta test is now over. The Beta Program team posted a notice to those who were participating saying that it will end on December 30 at 24:00 (so December 31 at 00:00).
The notice was spotted by several users so it seems that the program is wrapping up for everyone. Perhaps the most exciting piece of news in that message though is the line saying, “We would do our best to distribute the official version in January as soon as possible.” So it looks like we’re approaching the official release of Nougat for everyone, not just beta testers who happen to live in specific countries.
