Sony brings Android Oreo to XA1 family

Sony has a pretty good track record of bring the latest version of Android to a lot of its devices. And it extends that to a few devices that were launched a year ago. The XA1, XA1 Plus, and XA1 Ultra are all being updated to Android 8.0 Oreo. And according to Xperia Blog, some XA1 users are already seeing the update and noticing improved performance already. But one downside to the update is that these phones will lose its blue light filter. The over-the-air update has a build number of 48.1.A.0.116 with February 5 security patch level. There is no word if it’s getting Project Treble.

Sony releases August security patches for Xperia XA1, XA1 Ultra, and L1

In a case of better late than never, Sony just released its August security patch for three of its devices: the Xperia XA1, XA1 Ultra, and L1. There isn’t really anything new besides bumping up its security level to August 5, 2017. To check if you have the latest build this should be: Unfortunately, all phones still use Android 7.0, too. But security patches are important and it looks like you’ll have the latest for now. Let’s hope it doesn’t take too long for the September security patch to show up.
