I read many complaints about the new version. Does this update bring many issues?
I just check my phone and download the firmware, but I don't really know what this update is.

I updated 3 S7 edges with no issues. I personally like the new update reminds me of my Note 7 (RIP).

I updated to nougat on my 7 Edge and have had no real problems it actually runs a little better and the battery life seems pretty decent

I don't have any issues at all, everything is running great. The main reason you see so many people with issues is because people don't typically go to forums to tell you how great everything is. They come to find solutions to their problems.

The update makes the phone much better.

[Hey I Tried]

Updated and fine here as well.
You need to remember, when cruising around forums, you're going to see a lot of people saying they are having issues. That's kind of the point with a lot of the forums.

There aren't too many people going to post new threads saying "just updated and running fine".

I'm in the same boat, Nougat is available 2 download but I had a bad experience with my G4,got 5 hours of sot with LL but only 2 hours on MM so kinda put me off with these bad battery stories, I'll pull the trigger at some point??got S7E exynos in UK..

Updated my S7 edge without any issues; liking the new changes in Nougat.

[Lepa79]

Much better than marshmallow. Update away.

Yes.

Do note that it is best that you do a factory reset after updating as it ensures that the device will perform in the most optimal manner on the new software build.

If you want to get a great Nougat experience, update and do a full format of your phone.

I did this and thoroughly enjoying Nougat so far.

Thanks for your reply, I have updated mine. After two days use, I have found something really good, I like the notification bar, the nice app icons, several modes and the higher quality of video player.

How is your battery life??

I updated mine to 7.0 last week and i have nothing but issues. I did not factory reset it though.. i am going to do that this weekend. I must say the battery life is good though that wasnt an issue. My badges wouldnt disappear or even register that i had a notification. It kept freezing. I cant send MMS. The internet wouldnt stay connected. Hoping a factory reset will help.

I've been using nougat for a couple of weeks now.

Not needed to clear System Cache or Factory Reset.

My s7 is very snappy.

Not a single problem

How is your battery life??

Nothing big improvement, one day per charge is enough.

[Smith 001]

Not a single problem

So far the only drawback I have found is the font of the notifications, a bit small.
