Sony Xperia XZ and its other recent models are given an Android 7.0 Nougat update for now. The company's goal is to eventually get the Android 7.1.1 Nougat for the devices.

Users of Sony Xperia XZ should be contented with the Android 7.0 Nougat update as they will eventually have the Android 7.1.1 Nougat applied to their handset. After a long wait, Sony is finally rolling out the update following its announcement in September.

Aside from Xperia XZ, the company is also giving Android 7.0 Nougat update to their other recent devices such as the Xperia XA, Xperia X, Xperia XA Ultra, Xperia X Performance, Xperia Z5, Xperia Z4 tablet, Xperia Z3+, Xperia X Compact, Xperia Z5 Compact and Xperia Z5 Premium.

Owners of the mentioned devices can experience Android 7.0 Nougat at its finest, including the raved feature of multiple windows function. This feature allows the users to conveniently run two apps at the same time, therefore saving time and effort to switch from one app to another. This feature is beneficial to those who are performing several tasks at the same time.

Furthermore, the users of Sony Xperia XZ and other devices can see the changes in the messaging apps, particularly of its capability to send video and audio clips by just a few taps. Android 7.0 Nougat also comes with improved battery backup, improved security features and others.

As for those who are hoping to get Android 7.1.1 Nougat, the update may come eventually as Sony is apparently taking things one step at a time. After rolling out Android 7.0 Nougat, the rumor mill has it that they are prepping for the Android 7.1.1 Nougat to be released to their recent devices.

Android 7.1.1 Nougat has no surprising features added from the Android 7.0 Nougat, but there are interesting stuff such as Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) on the messaging app, restart option and more.
