How’s the Nougat performance on the budget AGM A8 ?


The new Android 7.0 Nougat is slowly rolling out for even some of the flagship devices, but some budget ones are already getting it out of the box in comparison. That’s the exact case of the new budget rugged AGM A8 and seems like the Nougat performance is looking to be pretty smooth and fluid.

At least in the following quite lengthgy video, where you can check how the phone can handle the Nougat in detail preview. As for the phone itself the AGM A8 is a cheap rugged device offering the IP68 certification making it water and dustproof, 5-inch HD resolution display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor, 13 Mpix + 2 Mpix cameras, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB of expandable storage and 4050 mAh battery capacity.

    Except is has no 4G Bands for Region 2 (Americas & Greenland) limiting the market it will sell into.
    Why are many cell phone makers making this mistake?
    Add LTE B2 or B4 and you have a true world phone.
