The Sony Xperia Z1, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra will receive a new operating system update in the next few days that will respond to the name of 14.4.A.0.155. This has been revealed to us by a new certification in which the existence of this update has been made known, and although the details of this file are not mentioned in it, it is presumably that we are talking about an update mainly focused on small corrections of mistakes.
As of today, both the Sony Xperia Z1, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra work under the version of 14.4.A.0.108 (although some telephone companies have even distributed an additional version, 14.4.A.0.133), and since this new update will only mean a change in the last three digits (we will go from 14.4.A.0. 108 to 14.4.A.0. 155 ), the most logical thing is that it is a patch intended only for correct mistakes. The update should begin rolling out to all countries in the coming weeks, so we will have to wait until then to know all the changes that it will bring.
But on the other hand, the update from Sony that will really bring important changes for users is the Android 4.4.4 KitKat update that the Sony Xperia Z2 will receive in the coming weeks. This is an update that will incorporate compatibility with the PlayStation 4 DualShock 4 controller and, in addition, it will also import many of the interface novelties that the Sony Xperia Z3 incorporates as standard: option to record the screen, Ultra STAMINA mode saving battery and, in general, an interface with a renewed design very similar to the interface of the new Sony Xperia Z3.
And let's not forget the new Android 5.0 Lollipop update that Google has presented to succeed the previous version of Android 4.4 KitKat. As far as Sony is concerned, this Japanese company has already confirmed that it will update the main mobiles in its Xperia Z range to Android 5.0 Lollipop. The Sony Xperia Z1, the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and the Sony Xperia Z Ultra will be updated to Android 5.0 Lollipop at the beginning of next year 2015, while the rest of the mobiles that will also receive this update is summarized in this list: Sony Xperia Z, Sony Xperia ZL, Sony Xperia ZR, Sony Xperia Z2, Sony Xperia Z3, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact, also including Sony Xperia Tablet Z, Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet and Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact.
