Wait, what was my screen res before Nougat??

Hey Guys,

Just was aimlessly thinking about Android 'things' and this question dawned on me. On the S7, what was the the standard resolution being shown before the update to 7.0 a couple months back? When I upgraded my phone, the display resolution was set in the middle to FHD. Does that mean pre-Nougat - before we had that kind of control over res - my phone was also at 1080p and thus not displaying things at it's maximum capability? Or did 7.0 come out and actually drop the standard resolution down from the WQHD in the update?

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Nope, before Nougat that slider was set to MAX. For battery saving reasons, the update defaults to FHD, but can easily be changed back to MAX resolution.
