The Sony Xperia SP will probably also join the list of Sony smartphones that are being updated to Android 4.3 in recent weeks. The first mobiles from the Japanese company Sony to receive the Android 4.3 update were the Sony Xperia Z1 and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra in mid-December of this year. Then the next ones to be updated were the Sony Xperia Z, the Sony Xperia ZR, the Sony Xperia ZL and the Z tablet. The Sony Xperia SPwould receive the update throughout these weeks, although there is still no definitive date for the arrival of Android 4.3 to this smartphone.
Only a few days ago, a screenshot of a new update for the Sony Xperia SP began to appear on the net that responded to the name 12.1.A.0.253. At that time some media already assumed that it was the update that included the new version of the Android operating system. This information has been fully confirmed with a new capture from a Hungarian Sony beta-tester (ie test user) who has shown in an image the “ About device ” menu of his Sony Xperia SP. In this capture you can see that in the section of " Android verziója " (" Android version”In Hungarian) Android 4.3 appears, which goes to show that owners of this smartphone should start receiving the update in a few weeks.
This news relatively coincides with the Android update calendar that Sony published in November. In that calendar you could see that the Sony Xperia SP appeared on the list of smartphones that would be updated during the month of December. While it is true that finally this terminal has been the only one that has been left out of the batch of updates, finally it seems that Sony will end up fulfilling its calendar.
And what news will Android 4.3 bring for the Sony Xperia SP ? In addition to a general improvement in the fluidity of the smartphone, Android 4.3 is accompanied by a series of new features that are being applied to all mobile phones that receive this update. For example, functionalities such as parental control or Bluetooth 4.0 (that is, a new Bluetooth system that consumes much less battery than the traditional system) are just some of the new features that will be seen in this update.
In addition to this update, Sony Xperia SP owners have an additional reason to welcome 2014 with open arms. If the rumors published a couple of months ago are correct, the Sony Xperia SP should also join the list of Sony smartphones that will receive the Android 4.4 KitKat update, the latest update for this operating system.
