I recently switched carriers with my zmax2. If the zmax2 is upgraded to nougat how do I get it?

The z958 is a very old device that came out in 2015 (my son has one.) and I really doubt it will be upgraded to the Nougat.

Here is the link to the Z958 ATT support page: https://www.att.com/devicehowto/index.html#!/?make=ZTE&model=ZTEZ958

Also here is link to the ZTE Z958 page:

But the device came out with Android 5.1 so it is very doubtful that it will receive Nougat.

The zmax2 is listed by ZTE as a candidate for Nougat. Google Nougat ZTE

@1bmwdriver The is no official news from ZTE about any OS update the to the ZMAX 2. Don't believe everything you read on the internet. We ran into this very same issue with 3rd party news outlets claimed the ZMAX Pro was undergoing a Nougat preview.

There is a lot of click bait information on the web especially when googling specific terms. More often than not nothing is official and nothing is for certain until you either receive an update or you see an official announcement on this forum.

One good thing about budget phones is that you can get one every year for 5 years and after tax have 1 flagship. Ymmv
