Sony's Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update circle is about to close. As leaked screenshots recently revealed to us, the Sony Xperia Z (from 2013) has officially started updating to Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. This update is being distributed via OTA (that is, directly through the mobile) under the version 10.6.A.0.454, occupies a space of 694.8 MegaBytes and is already available for download in much of the world. In addition, it seems that the owners of the Sony Xperia ZR have also begun to receive this same Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update on their phones.
The update of Android 5.0.2 Lollipop of the Sony Xperia Z brings with it all the news of Lollipop, and the first change that will probably catch the attention of users is the renewed interface with "Material Design", especially if we take into account that the Xperia Z worked until now under Android version 4.4.4 KitKat. These new features include a revamped notification center, lock screen notifications, user profile options, security enhancements, and various bug fixes.
Of course, for now we do not know if the file that Sony is distributing corresponds to the second update of Android 5.0.2 Lollipop from this manufacturer, in which case the owners will also find the renewed "Close all" button in the section of the applications open in the background.
To download the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update on the Sony Xperia Z it is only necessary to have WiFi connectivity activated, have more than 70% battery life and have 1.2 GigaBytes free in the internal memory. Then, if we have not yet received a notification informing of the availability of this file, we simply have to enter the Settings application, access the " About device " section, click on the option " Software updates”And check if the file is already available for download. In addition, this same process can also be carried out from the " Center to update ".
To give us an idea of why the Sony Xperia Z has been one of the last Sony phones to update to Lollipop, it is enough to mention that we are talking about a terminal that came on the market in 2013 with features that included screen five inches with resolution Full HD, processor Qualcomm MDM9215M of four cores, two gigabytes of RAM, 16 gigabytes - in memory card by microSD and a battery with 2330 mAhcapacity. And all this accompanied by a version of Android that is already very far away: Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean.
