IST 02:57 pm Sony added AOSP build instructions for Android 12 to Xperia Open Devices. IST 01:55 pm There are reports that claim Sony Xperia 1 and 5 may get Android 12 but that’s highly unlikely as the devices are old and do not fall under the 3 major OS update policy and have already bagged the promised 2 major OS updates. We’ll be updating the article as and when there are any new developments regarding Android 12 for Sony smartphones.

That said, this shouldn’t be considered as an official confirmation, because it isn’t. With that in mind, we’ve curated a list of existing phones from Sony that we believe will get the update. This means that any Sony Xperia device launched with Android 10 or Android 11 onboard should be eligible for the update to Android 12.Īnd since Sony has a relatively small portfolio of smartphones, it isn’t all that hard to guess which of them will be getting the upcoming Android OS. In the past, Sony has rolled out 2 major OS updates for its smartphones. However, Sony may wait until the end of the year to start rolling out the Android 12 update for eligible Xperia phones if the Android 11 rollout is to be taken into account. Speaking of which, Google is expected to release the stable version of Android 12 to the public towards the tail end of August or early September. Now since Sony does not partake in any beta program, Xperia phone users will have to wait until the company decides to release the stable update. However, this will soon change as it is expected to kick-start the beta program this month. So in this article, we’ll be tracking all developments related to the Android 12 update for Sony Xperia smartphones.Īs mentioned earlier, Google is currently testing Android 12 via the Developer Preview program. Google is also set to reveal its plans for Android 12 later this month at its I/O event that will take place between May 18 – 20. That said, Android 11 is now stale news considering the fact that Google has already begun testing Android 12 via its Developer Preview builds for the Pixels. One might argue that the company did not have many eligible phones, which is a fair point, but even OnePlus only has a few phones to update and is still struggling to bring the new Android OS to its devices. Sony is currently the only major Android smartphone vendor that has rolled out the Android 11 update for all eligible devices.
