Motorola have been really slow with their updates, especially for the previous generation flagships like the first gen moto x and so on. I'm not defending Sony as I too have the Z3 compact and am tired of waiting for the update to be released. Its been 4 months now and not even the newest flagships have even begun receiving it.

            Moreover, I don't know if this problem is only with me or others also. The 4G or 3G data network will go all of a sudden and I can only use data after reboot only. Firstly, I thought might be due to Network signal but the 4G works nicely after reboot.

            And horrible service. They don't even care to resolve the issue. They said, when the 4G is working after reboot then please do that. I said thanks and left the service center and hopefully no more Sony again.

            Thinking of HTC or LG G4 or S6 Edge. Sorry for iPhone. No thanks anymore.

              So. Sony's ditching non-Z owners and making the Z owners wait for a long time. Unless they get their act together, I'm moving on to Nexus/Motorola, or maybe even iOS and Windows Phone.

                That's the good user experience. I am owning Xperia Z3 Dual and waiting for the lollipop since ages.

                  Will all mid range Sony's such as new M4 aqua be born and die with lollipop then? Puts me off mid range Sony's.

                    Sony makes great devices (imo) but their update plans are beyond stupid.

                      New screenshots have emerged showing what looks like official Android 5.0 Lollipop Sony firmware running on the Xperia C3 (D2533).

                        When Sony ditches customers for sake of promoting the Z series which is not going well because of poor software maintainence, CYNOGENMOD comes into action. I am using Sony xperia L with official cynogenmod lollipop.
