ZTE Axon 7 min

The ZTE Axon 7 was one of the first devices to receive the Android 7.1.1 Nougat update, along with the Pixel variants and the OnePlus 3/3Tย but in an unfortunate turn of events, the update only targeted a few countries, leaving most of its users out to dry running Android Nougatย 7.0

Although the Axon 7 is a bootloader unlockable device, which enables the users to flashย the latest firmware all by themselves, OTA updates and fixes need to be provided in time to guard against malwaresย which could affectย the device. The latest build carries the version number ZTE A2017GV1.2.0B05ย and weighs on a heavier side at 2GB.ย The firmware update also includes security patch for the month of June and is aimed at the A2017Gย variant.
