I think that the smartest move for 4.1 phones would be go to straight to either 4.3 or 5.0 (whenever it comes out). The changes from 4.1 to 4.3 are so minor that I think they shouldn't be wasting time for in-between versions. And if we add to that all the time Sony needs to start to start rolling out the updates... Oh, boy...

          My Xperia Z being UK simfree bought from Sony still hasn't got 4.2 despite other UK Xperia Zs having it, never mind 4.3 :(

          Hope Sony stop announcing and start releasing something.

                    Well done Sony at least they ain't as HTC who won't even update the ONE S I wonder if they plan to skip the 4.2 and go straight to 4.3 as Samsung plans to do with some of its devices

                      Anonymous, 25 Jul 2013what other phones from 2012 has 4.2 or 4.3 update right now... moreWhen you only own Samsung, and you are holding a latest version of Galaxy Note which is considered most premium device at the moment, which is less than a year from the date of release BUT using android version 2 generation older than current 4.3. You will feel ASHAMED!

                      When you criticize your own product and yet being labeled as Samsung hater ... what can I said ... ?

                        They should really update all their 2012 phones. I mean how are they going to make a name for them selves if they don't even update their phones. The 2012 phones update process was long and tedious. Really hope they update the 2012 phones

                            AnonD-156897, 25 Jul 2013Facing Same problem....I'm 100% sure, you don't own Note 2. You both are Samsung haters. This is a good article about Sony updates. Try to praise Sony. They are doing good thing. Why you need to bash other companies (LG/HTC/Samsung...)
