Oops!!, 01 Jul 2017U mean new Touchwiz is a little light than previous Touchwiz for A510FD? if not then why i fee... moreYes, TouchWiz is lighter than its previous version, because it has been trimmed to maintain the compatibility with hardware of A5 2016, as mentioned in my previous post. This is the reason behind smooth operations & transitions. A ROM is a combination of OS, Skin & pre - installed apps, not only Nougat OS. ROM size has been decreased mainly due to Samsung's Grace UX which is a standard Samsung skin for Nougat. A5 2016 skins below...

Lollipop - Nature UX
Marshmallow - TouchWiz 6
Nougat - Grace UX

Thus TouchWiz has to be trimmed for smooth operations. Basically the usage of CPU, RAM & storage is same after update, rightly balanced.

After updating my A510FD to Nougat 7.0. and 1 week of use i can say that, its good. Till now i got no problem. everything is great.
Anyone who is using this device with 7.0, i wanna ask one thing. Is new UI of samsung lighter than previous UI? sometimes i feel that previous UI which this device had at first was little heavy than this UI. do u feel guys? and i also feel that after Nougat 7.0 device runs smooth than previous marshmallow.
