Android Central 295: Nougat Unlocked

There's no such thing as a slow week in the Android world. And in the span of a single morning we've gotten both the nickname for Android N — Nougat — and a long-overdue unlocked version of the Samsung Galaxy S7 in the United States. 

Plus we weigh in on some recent stories that probably have been blown way out of proportion, and we answer some excellent questions via email. 

Thanks to this week's sponsors:
