Sony Xperia 1 VI gets Wi-Fi 7 connectivity via software update
Over four months after its market release, Sony’s Xperia 1 VI just gained a new feature. The device now supports Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) connectivity thanks to a software update which was promised back during the announcement.
Wi-Fi 7 brings faster connection and improved stability with lower latency (100x lower compared to Wi-Fi 6) thanks to support for the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz frequency bands. It’s also rated at a maximum throughput of 46 Gbit/s. The new update for the Xperia 1 VI appears to be following a phased release which means some regions will get it ahead of others.

Then talk to my Xperia Z5 which is now 9 years old, and I have used it too harsh and am still able to survive until now. My Xiaomi Redmi 2 Prime, which is the same age as my Xperia Z5 flagship, is no longer bootable.
