LG V10 starts receiving the Android 7.0 Nougat update

Although it was one of LG's flagship smartphones from two years ago, the V10 hasn't yet received the highly-anticipated Android 7.0 Nougat update. The South Korean handset maker revealed earlier this year that the V10 won't be getting any major OS updates until the second half of 2017.

The good news is LG has started to push the update slightly earlier than expected, as the company announced compatible V10 units are now being upgraded to Android 7.0 Nougat. The only caveat is the update is now being deployed in South Korea only.

Starting June, Android 7.0 Nougat for the V10 may arrive in other countries as well, just as LG stated back in March. Until then, if you live in South Korea, you can download Android 7.0 Nougat for the V10 through LG Bridge desktop software.

Aside from the new features added by Android 7.0 Nougat, the update will also bring LG's new UX 5.0, along with some other improvements. In case you own the LG V10, then you should know the update can be installed on the following models: F600L, F600K, and F600S.
