In another news, LG announced that it would soon roll out the Nougat update for its LG V10 and LG G4 devices.

In an interview with Korea Times, LG's official said that LG V10 would receive the update in the second quarter (somewhere between March to May), while the LG G4 will get it in the third quarter of 2017 (between June to August). It means that the company will also be extending the update to other regions outside Korea.

All the backlash seemed to have reversed LG's decision, and now the company will finally extend the update to both the devices.
