Last week we heard that Sony may not be putting Android 4.1 on any of their 2011 Android smartphones, the new came from a Sony spokesperson on their Facebook page.
Now Sony has released an official statement on their blog, which you can see below, to confirm that the information released last week was incorrect and they are still considering Android 4.1 Jelly bean for previous devices.
Hello everyone,
A quick note – during a Q&A session last week on our Sony Mobile GB Facebook page, a local spokesperson gave information out in error on our Android 4.1 Jelly Bean software development and rollout for 2011 Xperia smartphones.
We are actively investigating Android OS upgrades for all devices, but in the meantime, our Ice Cream Sandwich rollout for Xperia S and 2011 Xperia smartphones continues as planned.
As always, feel free to drop a question below and keep your eyes fixed on the blog, as we’ll be bringing you more on our Ice Cream Sandwich rollout for Xperia P and other 2012 Xperia smartphones over the next couple of weeks.
Ant.
As soon as we get some more information on which of Sony’s Android devices will be getting the Android 4.1 Jelly bean update we will let you guys know.
