Lenovo-owned subsidiary ZUK is planning to commence Android Nougat roll-out for two of its flagship phones soon.
The company's vice president took to social media platform Weibo to confirm the news that ZUK Z2 and its top-end version Z2 Pro, which were launched in mid-2016 with Android v6.0 Marshmallow OS out-of-the-box, will receive the new Android 7.0 Nougat next week onwards. It will be released initially in the Chinese market with custom ZUI 2.5 UI on it, Anzhuo reported.
