There was no mention of the Nexus 5X, but given that Nexus devices are always the first to receive new Android software updates, it's safe to bet that it won't be far behind. Meanwhile, LG has announced that its new V20 flagship will be the first device to come pre-installed with Android 7.0, beating even Google's own Pixel and Pixel XL devices. Presumably, Google will have rolled out its latest OS to its own devices before the V20 becomes globally available in the coming weeks.
