When Samsung has finished it.

All of the manufacturers have the base code. How much resources they have devoted to updating their existing devices and how many changes they have to make to get it to work with their customizations is what delays the release of the updates to their various and numerous devices.

Simple answer is... When Verizon feels like it! The other 3 already have the update, but Verizon is just being typical Verizon.  Take their time knowing we'll still be here year after year upgrading our phones.

Maybe one day they'll make us feel like we really matter to them..... Maybe

More like, they'd rather sell you new phones with the software updates on it, instead of spending money to update the software, certify it and support it when people call. To Verizon, updates are a lose lose for them.

That, until companies like T-mobile start beating them in customer service so bad that Verizon cant just coast on having "the best network". Sooner or later, Verizon is going to have to improve the customer experience or risk hemorrhaging more customers.

Verizon is slow again . sprint and AT&T have already released Nougat to there customers. Probably should have stayed with AT&T
