Sony rolls out Android 7.1.1 Nougat to Xperia XZ and Xperia X Performance Apr 25th 2017, 10:04, by Scott Adam Gordon Sony has rolled out the Android 7.1.1 Nougat update to the Xperia XZ and Xperia X Performance. The update arrives with build number 41.2.A.2.199 and delivers the April 1 Android Security patches. The news arrives via Sony fansite Xperia Blog which states that the update comes with the typical Android 7.1 features, but doesn’t reference any Sony-specific inclusions. One feature we should mention, however, is Android Nougat's app shortcuts: these are available for the Xperia X Performance and Xperia XZ, though only with a compatible launcher (they don’t work with the native Xperia Home launcher).

You should see a notification for the update arrive to your handset soon but you can visit the software update page to check if it's already available.
