Google phone and contact apps disappeared from my phone and store after 7.0 update (SM-N920C)

...And i don't want to use samsung's phone and contact app. I powered off and on the device and it did not help. I entered the play store through my windows pc and it says that my note 5 is not compatible with google phone and contact apps... THAT is strange. Is this a temporary bug or samsung just decided to not let note 5 users use these google apps? The bug option sounds more realistic. Any clue how to solve this issue? Its the official unbranded unrooted rom that samsung sent to my device.

This is not that unusual. A major system update to a phone might cause it to become incompatible with certain apps. You could send feedback to Google and ask if they plan to make the Phone and Contacts app compatible with the Note5 on Nougat again, but it may not happen that quickly.
