You can get it by entering the beta program but a lot of the features aren't on 7.0 yet.
I only did it as mine messed up on an update a few months back and this fixed it. Not had any issues yet.

My battery life has become really bad over the last few weeks, so I really wanna do an FDR, but figure I should flash to Nougat at the same time...
Straight to 7.1 would be cool if it happens!

My wife old Nexus 6 has been left for about a month, when she got a new phone recently.
Came to sort out getting rid of it and the back cover has now been pushed right out. I decided to peel the cover off knowing they're only suck on with double sided tape, and it seems the battery has enlarged itself and pushed everything out.
Anyone ever heard of this happening?
I had planned on selling it on, but i don't know if it's worth trying to put a new battery in it and just sending it off to be recycled.

Mines just done it, but I was on the beta so it's not that different 
Just flashed mine to get the new factory image. All good so far once I had remembered you have to allow OEM unlock in the settings app 
Performance seems good so far - looks like the phone is good to keep for another year unless the Pixel temps me.

Flashed it earlier using NRT, using the un-encrypted boot image too and no wipe options, simple upgrade done in about 10 mins from start to finish.
Probably wont notice much difference, but liking the new notifications layout and stacking, quick app switching on double tap is pretty neat too

Any initial Nougat thoughts, guys?
Wow that sucks. What are you doing to that poor headphone jack
Sumanji - have you updated yet? I'm still on a M rom from Feb lol.
It does get a lot of use, But I wouldn't say as much as my S2 or M7 used to but they were fine!
I'm still on M from May xD
Soldato
Yup! It's pretty much the same as M from a user perspective. My battery life is still quite crappy, so may end up doing an FDR to see if that helps...
How come you guys don't do the monthly security updates?!

I'm on a custom ROM and everything is running nicely, so I don't wanna fix what ain't broke

Has anyone had a distribution from Google yet for the N6, I still haven't seen boo peep for mine.
I'm on Vodafone but I don't think the phone has been modified or restricted.

Yea, I'm on Vodafone and got the OTA for 7.0 when it went live. I was however on the preview beforehand.
