Hints About Sony Tp Update Xperia SP with Android 4.4 KitKat; Xperia T, TX, V, ZR ‘Under Investigation’


For the past few weeks we have been watching the news and announcement from OEMs and telecom providers regarding the update schedules of Android 4.4 KitKat and among them the interesting thing was about Sony. And Sony shared details on the first raft of Xperia devices slated to receive the KitKat update. And as the announcement was made officially many user raised their voice for disappointment in the selection of devices that Sony has decided to allow into the KitKat party.

And if you got yourself dissapointed in the selection, don't worry the initial announcement showed only the first raft of devices, which mean there will be a second raft. We can confirm this by the latest updation made in the official Xperia SP's support page, which now proudly brandishes the KitKat-flavored Android mascot along with the words ‘Future Version: Android 4.4 (KitKat). Although not an explicit announcement, it’s pretty much a dead giveaway of things to come in the very near future.

And another disappointing factor is that the users of Xperia T, TX, V and ZR, you may have to wait a bit longer to see if you’ll be catching the second wave. Although the respective support pages also shows the Android 4.4 icon, the accompanying words “Under Investigation: Android 4.4 (KitKat)” are a bit of a dampener. This is somewhat expected for the 2012 devices, as Sony would definitely have to investigate whether these devices will be capable and compatible with a version of Android that’s more than just changes to aesthetics and functionality. That said, we have to wonder why the ZR has also been left out (for now).

But still leaving all those dissapoinments we can still say that it is a great news about Sony's update and we will wait and watch about the devices in the second raft and as the mystery continues.
