Lenovo K6 Power and K6 Note Starts Receiving Android 7.0 Nougat Update in India

Lenovo has begun rolling out the Android 7.0 Nougat software update for its budget Lenovo K6 Power and K6 Note. The Lenovo K6 Power was launched in December last year with Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Both the smartphones have similar specifications, but the K6 Note is available in the offline market, while the K6 Power is limited to the online market.

Of late, Lenovo is under tremendous pressure for not delivering timely software updates. All the Lenovo smartphones are great value for money options in the market, but the software updates are the only concern because they never deliver updates on time. For example, consider the flagship Lenovo Z2 Plus, which is promised to receive Android Nougat update in December 2016, but Lenovo started rolling out the update in mid-April. Also, the Chinese brand ignored to deliver a VoLTE update for the Vibe X3.

As a result, customers out there are looking for other brands for a software update, which is a huge concern. However, both the K6 Power and K6 Note now joins the small list of Android 7.0 Nougat powered smartphones in the budget segment, where only a few phones such as Honor 6X, Nokia 3, etc. are running the latest Android OS.

The upgrade for both the phones brings various new features from the core Android Nougat OS. Lenovo has mentioned six noteworthy changes for both the phones.

Enhanced multitasking with Multi-window Support

With multi-window support, the K6 Note and K6 Power can now run two apps simultaneously on the screen. This feature was introduced with the official Android Nougat OS last year. Just tap on the recent apps button and drag the apps to the top of the screen. For instance, you could be watching a YouTube video while replying to a message on WhatsApp or surfing the web while running the calculator app. You can combine both the apps into a single window with the multi-window feature.
