Google has just announced a new version (lower) of Android, 7.1.1 (Nougat), which means different things in devices of Google. In this way, the phones Pixel and Pixel XL is moving from version 7.1 to 7.1.1 to tell with greater certainty and to correct some errors.
But in the case of smartphones Nexus, the update of the version 7.0 to 7.1.1, ending definitively with the Developer Preview version for this type of device.
Well, the version 7.1.1 is now ready for the phones, Pixel, Pixel, XL, Pixel C, and the Nexus 6S, 5X, 9, 9 LTE, as well as for the Nexus Player.
it Is interesting to see that the Nexus 6 has received the security update in December, but is still based on Android 7.0. Apparently the Nexus 6 will not be any Android update 7.1 this end of the year.
Android 7.1 is released exclusively for the Google phone, dubbed Pixel, in October of this year.
with regard to Nexus, a brand that apparently no longer want to support Google, he has been left in the Developer Preview version of Android 7.1 (just like the C version of Pixel), which ends with this update. Android 7.1 was developed for the phones, Pixel, and Google is doing that many features are unique to the line Pixel.
For this reason, the Nexus devices will not have the Google Assistant, the new navigation bar or the Pixel Launcher, although if you see a lower latency in the input via the keyboard, a style F. lux Night Mode and new emojis. This is the advantage of being the manufacturer of the operating system, of course.
