Will my Moto G4 Play get Nougat?

[AC Question]

I am super curious if my Moto G4 Play will get Nougat? My phone's latest update is from October 1st, 2016. I got the phone in December 2016. I am in Canada, so I don't expect it right away, but will my phone get Nougat?

Have you Googled this? The complete list of devices Lenovo committed to update has been online since... October?
EDIT My mistake, December

Got a security update yesterday on my g4 play ... I suspect nougat is some months away from getting to my phone.

Yeah, I received the security update from t&at last weekend. It's too bad they are so frakking slow!

 

[Inundated]

Yes, according to all the information last time I checked the Motorola site.

But...I am not sure how long it will take Verizon to push it to their prepaid variant.

Like those posted above, I have already gotten two security updates, the most recent the February 2017 update.

Even the Verizon prepaid variant of the Moto G 1st Gen got bumped up to Lollipop, though it did take a while...

Just got a G4 Play form bestbuy today for 150. Good phone. And just downloaded a software update right now. It said software update. But settings still say 6.0.1. So not sure what got updated. But no nougat. I read somewhere online they said june or july.

Probably a security patch level update.

So still no nougat? Anyone hear more about exactly when?

Brazilian blogs reported that the update to 7.1.1 has already started in Brazil, including June security patch.

 

[Kavan Sidhu]

But I am USA not Brazil.

A date usually isn't announced.

Well, as Ry said, usually they don't announce an specific date. The only information we can have is a vague promise (June in this case), that is not always true, and what happens in another markets.

At least we know which version is being released and which security patch. Most likely it will be the same all around, but not 100% sure either, and as always it will depend on which country you bought your phone or even carrier.

So I got it from bestbuy unlocked for 139 plus tax. 153 something total. Unlocked no carrier specific. So then what is the latest version Nougat? And what version is it we are supposed to get?

 

[sir mictol]

i got may security update yesterday......... no nougat yet

 

[Inundated]

Same here. May security update yesterday, still 6.0.1.

 

[Kavan Sidhu]

Still no nougat. And I did not see any security update yesterday or today.
