While we continue delighting in the possibility that some terminals of the new X series this year come with barely bezelsAs we have learned in the leaks in recent days, there are current ones that would be receiving the official update to Nougat shortly; at least in its latest versions.
Ya in November last year Sony published the build 'concept' based on Android Nougat. Now is when the Japanese company has published Android 7.1.1 Nougat for the Xperia X, making it the first device apart from the Google Pixel and the Nexus to work with the latest version of Android OS.
Android 7.1.1 Nougat MR1 is said to have the build number 38.3.A.0.41. The update brings with it new features such as the option to restart in the power or power menu and a camera that starts faster than it did.
Sony has also added the support for Remote Play from the PlayStation 4 to the Xperia X Concept as well as the latest security patches from December 1. You have to know that to be notified to get the latest version of the OTA, one has to participate in the current beta program for the Xperia X.
An initiative by Sony that has been with us since 2015 with the Xperia Z3 and that has allowed many users, apart from realizing the excellent performance of Marshmallow and Nougat on Sony phones, to have the latest version, as it happens with this update that takes them up to Android 7.1.1.
With this growing interest in purer versions of Android, or the layers that lighten their weight to resemble that version that lives in the Google Pixel, Sony phones are one of the best alternatives, since they are one of the few that do not leave their phone very heavy when they want to sell their brand to through those custom layers.
