Back in July we launched Sony’s Concept for Android[SUP]TM[/SUP], a beta initiative enabling Xperia users to trial concept software builds for Xperia devices. The positive reaction and feedback far exceeded our expectations, so we’re excited to announce the next phase – Sony’s Concept for Android: Marshmallow edition.Rolling out over the next couple of weeks, the programme is open to 10,000 Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact users in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, United Kingdom, Ireland and Germany.The software is built on some of the key feedback from our first “Concept for Android” – the users helped us create an experience built on the fundamentals of: prolonged battery life, smooth and fast performance, sleek user interface, Sony apps and experiences and frequent, timely updates. We’ve included all of that here and also hope to road test a few new Sony experiences along the way…Rather than merely previewing a new software version, this is about a proof-of-concept way of working, whereby we build a new user experience – and more importantly, process – from the ground up, that will also allow us to be more responsive in developing and rolling out the Sony Android upgrades Xperia users want, more quickly.
