Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean Update for Sony Xperia Z, ZL, ZR and Tablet Z

To keep its device up-to-date with the changing and advanced technology, Sony every now-and-then is releasing software updates for its latest and the not-so-old Xperia smartphones. Sony has officially confirmed that Sony Xperia Z, Sony Xperia ZL, Sony Xperia ZR and Sony Xperia Z Tablet smartphones are now eligible to get updated to the improved version of Android Jelly Bean operating system, that is, version 4.2.2, which will bring changes in the display, camera, battery and performance features. As the update is being rolled out in phased manner, it might take some time to reach to your Xperia handset. Trusted sources are also hinting that the users of Sony Xperia ZR have already started receiving the update over-the-air.

Last month only Sony had rolled out media update for Xperia Z, ZL, ZR and Z Ultra, which brings a lot of new changes with the addition of many new features, however, the Android version remains the same. With this news, the hope to get the recently released Android v.4.3 Jelly Bean platform for these handsets has been shattered. These four Xperia smartphones will also get a new feature with this firmware update, which will enable them to active the Google Now app by holding the Home button. Earlier Sony has also released firmware updates for its old Xperia handsets, namely Xperia S, Xperia SL, Xperia Acro S and Xperia SP.

The updation to Android version 4.2.2 Jelly Bean operating system is expected to fix the small bugs that were found in these handsets while working on some applications.
