I'm just wondering, because its taken so long for Sony to release 4.4.2 when most other devices have had it for ages already, may sony just update out tablets straight to 4.4.3 instead of 4.4.2, and if now can we expect to wait another 6 months or more before they release 4.4.3?
Only ask because 4.4.2 has known issues and is the reason most others are updating to 4.4.3 soon but we havn't even got 4.4.2 yet anyway, unlike most others that have nbeen have the little bugs like the camera battery drain issue.

Probably... They wouldn't be THAT dumb to not do that...

No they will give us just 4.4.2 and they will expect to say thank you too! This will be our last update! 12-13 months of support just like many other devices!
when I read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2734991 it's mean no way we will get 4.4.3 for the Z unless you flash custom rom....... 99.9999% lol
It's a shame seems it's got known bugs that cause battery drain
I think Sony has a Good battery management over android
i dont have the same opinion. My tablet Z wifi is sucking tons of battery giving me suspend_backoff wakelocks and not deep sleeps. In the same network ,nexus 5 is sleeping like a baby.
Considering 4.4.3 isn't even officially launched yet, and is rumored to launch sometime in May...that would indicate that Sony does not yet even HAVE 4.4.3 to work with.
So no, unless they've mastered time travel, I don't see how they could possibly release 4.4.3 in May. My guess is we'll never see 4.4.3 on the Tablet Z. However, the next major release is entirely possible. A 4.5 or 5.0 release is entirely possible around end of 3rd quarter from Google(maybe announced in late June at Google I/O, released a month or two later). Maybe they could have it ready 3 months of so after release. I wouldn't be surprised if this tablet sees at least one more major update after this 4.4.2 release in May. That following one may be the last though.
I agree with @tullnd, i also believe that our tablet will receive another update after 4.4.2 ... :good:
Still waiting the 4.3 update for the 32 go Version !
How long do you think we will need to wait?
Next year probably knowing Samsung. They support their flagships for about 6 months before they're completely forgotten about.
They're still rolling out 5.0 to some of their devices. The problem with Samsung is just last year they released 56 different mobile/tablet devices - How do you continue support for all of those?
It's the one thing I love about Apple - One device for the whole world, one device to update, nice and simple!
Agreed, and I am aware of their track record. I have seen a new urgency to get updates done quickly however, and given this will be their newest device I am hoping the ups are will drop quickly.
after the s7 comes out prob
Anyone knows more about it?
Cheers,
S.
I think it'll release in the end of the year or later :v
Yeah probably not until December at the earliest. New Android is usually buggy as hell, id rather they waited until either they fixed it or Google does.
Got the YotaPhone 2 last Friday - with Android 4.4 installed (the standard one). I immediately tried System Updates. Nothing available.
The next day, I tried updates again. Lo' and behold. 5.0 was waiting! Updated it promptly. So far so good. Makes a great phone even better and the promise of battery life - the phone seems to hold it!
All good!
edit: never mind the above then. It looks like it already was available since sometime last year...
Thanks for playing!
You provided a bit of excitement since the last post was some time ago.
I'm developing game for google daydream(their new vr platform) and zte axon 7 seems to be the cheapest android phone that is daydream ready. The problem is that in order to work daydream needs android N. Do you know what are their plans for releasing update on their phones/how fast they did it before?
At a rough guess I'd say that it will be some time after Google eventually release it. I also vaguely remember something somewhere about Daydream not being part of the initial release of Nougat but coming shortly after although a quick search has thrown up nothing.
I'm betting first quarter of 2017. I'd be shocked if it was before the new year.
Everything I've read is pointing to this year for the update they are selling it as "the first daydream phone" and I've read multiple places that they want to get it updated asap.

Every manufacturer says they want to update ASAP but all of them take longer than they claim.
Imagine if they "rushed" it out full of bugs and things breaking. As much as we depend on these things for life itself, I am happy if they take their time, do it right the first time, then release it! I work in IT and I know from first hand experience over 22 years that you're much better off doing it right the first time then to have to go back and hopefully fix the errors!
Apparently ZTE is part of the group of oems that have early access to the source of this new Android release. As they actively market this phone as "daydream" ready I'd assume they want it to work.
heck until today we had no idea when android would be released (supposedly mid to late August).
I think it will be before November when Daydream will come.
It's really close to daydream release date, are there any news about the android 7.0/7.1 update now?
