Motorola’s latest flagship smartphone, the Moto Z, will be the first third-party Android device to support Google’s Daydream, the company announced today.

Motorola will begin rolling out Android Nougat to Verizon-branded Moto Z Force and Moto Z smartphones “this week.” The update will also make both devices compatible with Google’s recently released Daydream View headset.

On its support website, Motorola says Nougat will come to other Moto Z regional variants soon.

“These are the first smartphones from another manufacturer to be recognized by Google as Daydream-ready devices – a distinction given to phones that have been certified for the Daydream platform and are built for VR with high-resolution displays, ultra-smooth graphics and high-fidelity sensors for precise head tracking,” says the company on its blog.

We’ve reached out to Motorola to find out when Canadians can expect to get Android 7.0 on their Moto Z smartphones.
