The Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean update brings several new features and improvements to the Sony Xperia Tablet Z. One of the most notable additions is multi-user support, which allows multiple users to have their own profiles on the same device. This is particularly useful for families or shared environments, as it enables each user to have a personalized experience with their own apps, settings, and data.
Another significant improvement is the enhanced performance and stability of the operating system. Users can expect a smoother and more responsive interface, with quicker app launches and transitions.

The update also brings a revamped lock screen with customizable widgets, enabling users to access their favorite apps and information without unlocking the device. This adds a layer of convenience and efficiency to the daily use of the tablet.
Furthermore, the update includes support for wireless display, allowing users to mirror their tablet’s screen on a compatible TV or monitor. This is perfect for presentations, watching videos, or playing games on a larger screen.
