We’re bringing Android 5.0; Lollipop to the entire Xperia Z Series

===================================

You’ve probably seen Google unveil Android version 5.0; Lollipop…

Since the initial reveal of the Android “L” Developer Preview, we’ve seen lots of questions on our upgrade roadmap about our plans – so, here goes…

We’ll be making Sony Mobile’s Android “L” upgrade available for the entire premium Z series*: including Xperia Z, Xperia ZL, Xperia ZR, Xperia Tablet Z, Xperia Z1, Xperia Z1S, Xperia Z Ultra, Xperia Z1 Compact, Xperia Z2, Xperia Z2 Tablet, Xperia Z3, Xperia Z3v, Xperia Z3 Compact and Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact. Sony Z Ultra Google Play edition devices will be first up – we’ll be back with more details on that soon.

We’ll start the upgrade at beginning of 2015 for the core Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z2 series – continuing thereafter for all remaining devices above.

^ the mentioned phone are all high end phones so no surprise as [MENTION=125133]Minion[/MENTION] mentioned. If they found any hiccups while testing lollipop in their mid range phone they will drop the support :/

High end or not the official support period is only 18 months. The older Z series have crossed that period already. So we are indeed lucky to get this update. I had thought that it would end with KitKat. Now a ZR at 17K makes great sense.
