Pity they can't do the same for My E9+
I already have an HTC 10 now, but keeping their promise to update E9+ might have been nice.

The SD801 isn't capable of meeting Google CTS or hardware encryption. I see problems using it.

It kind of sucks that the S5 was released a month after the M8 and the S5 won't be getting Nougat. It ends at Marshmallow for the S5. So it seems that HTC gives their customers at least three years of support while Samsung gives their customers two years of support. I'm really shocked to see the M8 get Nougat.

Samsung Alpha, Samsung's premium answer to Iphone at that time, launched 5 months later than M8 , did not even get Marshmellow. It got only Lolipop after 12 months. Only 12 month support !

It's a given fact that SD801 devices will never be able to run the official Nougat OS, and there's literally no logical or technical way to bypass it, except when the OEM asks/pays Google to give the drivers of Nougat, or by using a custom ROM which is not guaranteed to work 100% perfect

It's probably because HTC and Google have relationship with software department, and they (Google) probably gave the proper drivers to run Nougat on SD801 devices to the M8 only. Meanwhile, Sony Xperia Z3 also received the BETA version of Nougat, thing of which the M8 never reached. Even so, Sony supported their Z2 with 2 major OS upgrades and 5 version updates (4.2.2., 4.4.2, 5.0.2, 5.1, 6.0.1). I wonder in what OS the M7 has reached

"Update [March 27, 2017]: We just received confirmation from a T-Mobile rep and it seems they mistakenly updated the HTC One M8 page with the mention of Android 7.0 Nougat update being rolled out for it. T-Mobile will have it corrected soon. So itÂ’s not happening, phew!"
