Sony is about to increase the software support time for Xperia smartphones

According to GizChina , Sony's latest smartphone models have not attracted much attention, although this does not mean they are inferior. For example, the Xperia 1 V is a high-end device that brings many top features. The Xperia 5 V is a compact high-end device that offers a top-notch photography experience. And this generation is completed with the Xperia 10 V for the mid-range segment.

Sony will increase software update support time for Xperia series

These products compete with rivals in some aspects, especially in the camera. In addition, the software experience of the series from Sony is also highly appreciated. However, the same is not true when it comes to updates. So far, Sony has provided 2 Android updates for its latest models, except for the Xperia 1 III - a high-end device of 2021 that will soon be updated to Android 14.

The problem is, this isn’t enough for a manufacturer that has been on the decline in recent years after a relatively smooth start with Android, and this becomes even more apparent when looking at their prices, as there’s always been a tight relationship between price and software update policy on products.

Meanwhile, Google and Samsung have been working hard to match and even surpass Apple, which typically gives iPhones six years of regular updates. Now, Sony itself may be changing its strategy, with the Xperia 1 VI, Xperia 5 VI, and Xperia 10 VI expected to get longer software support than their predecessors.

Specifically, sources said that Sony will apply a 5-year software update policy, but it is unclear whether this is 5 years of Android updates or just security updates. Whatever may happen, it is still good news for those interested in the Japanese brand.
