The cycle of Sony updates is getting closer and closer. As the Japanese company promised in its Android 5.1.1 Lollipop distribution calendar, the most recent version of Android continues to arrive on the Xperia, and this time the Sony Xperia Z1, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra have just started updating to Android version 5.1.1. The update is being distributed under the numbering 14.6.A.0.368, and it is only a matter of time before it is available for download in most countries.
The Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update for the Sony Xperia Z1, Xperia Z1 Compact and Xperia Z Ultra has just begun its worldwide distribution, and for now it has only been detected in the United States, certain territories in China and the Czech Republic. Still, Xperia Z1, Z1 Compact and Z Ultra owners should receive the Android 5.1.1 update worldwide in the next few weeks., as well as a link that allows the download of this update should appear in the next few hours. For users who are interested in manually checking the availability of this update, the procedure is as simple as entering the Settings application, navigating to the " About phone " section and clicking on the " Software updates " option.
But what are the new features of this update are Android 5.1.1 Lollipop from Sony which, incidentally, in this case has been released by the website XperiaBlog.net ? We are talking about a minor update, and as such its main novelty lies in correcting the errors that the previous versions of Lollipop distributed by Sony may have generated. For the rest, one of the few new features in the interface that users who go from Android 5.0.2 to Android 5.1.1 Lollipop will find resides in a direct access next to the WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, some renewed icons in the section Settings and certain minor changes to some animations of the operating system.
On the other hand, the Xperia Z1 and Z Ultra are only a part of the Xperia range phones that Sony has already begun to update to the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop version. The mobile phones in the Xperia Z3 range (Sony Xperia Z3 and Sony Xperia Z3 Compact) were the first to be updated, closely followed by the Sony Xperia Z2; then the Xperia Z (Sony Xperia Z, Sony Xperia ZL and Sony Xperia ZR) were updated, and in recent days we have echoed the arrival of the Sony Xperia C3 update.
At this point, the only phones in the Xperia range that remain to be updated to the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop version are the Sony Xperia T2 Ultra, the Sony Xperia M2 and the Sony Xperia M2 Aqua. And for next year, we can prepare for the arrival of the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update.
