Sony starts rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat for Xperia XA Ultra

Although slower than other Android OEMs, Sony continues to push the long-awaited Android 7.0 Nougat update to many of its smartphones. Fans who own the Xperia XA Ultra will be pleased to know that their handsets are the next to get the update.

The Japanese company has kicked off the deployment of Android 7.0 Nougat to a couple of Xperia XA Ultra models like the F3211 and F3212. If you have some other variant, then you shouldn't have to wait too long.

Not many details are known about the update, but you should be looking for the new firmware version 36.1.A.0.179. We're also expecting the update to include one of the many security patches released by Google this year; hopefully, it's one of the latest.

The Xperia XA Ultra is a mid-range smartphone that made it to the market about a year ago. Obviously, the device shipped with Android 6.0 Marshmallow at launch, but Sony confirmed later on that it would provide users with a Nougat update. There's no telling whether or not this will be the last major OS update the Xperia XA Ultra will get, but we'll probably find out by the end of the year.
