Google is hosting its ‘Made by Google’ event on October 4, where it is likely to announce Android 7.1 Nougat. The new version is coming at a time when the older version is yet to reach all the devices already available in the market.

Google is yet to update its dashboard with numbers indicating Nougat marketshare. The dashboard indicates Android Marshmallow being available on 18.7 per cent devices while KitKat and Lollipop are running on 27.7 per cent and 35 per cent Android smartphones.

Festive offer

Motorola has been one of the consistent OEMs when it comes to Android updates. The company has been significantly ahead of other OEMs with software updates. However, this time the details have been unclear. Now, Motorola is coming clean on its plans for Android Nougat updates.
