New features in Android 5.0 Lollipop update for Sony Xperia Z3 and Z3 Compact
- Fresh, streamlined looks – based on Google’s material design, but retaining our minimalistic approach to interface and application design.
- New look notifications and lock screen – with fully customizable settings, so you only get the information you really need.
- Multi user profiles and guest mode – making it easy for family and friends to use your device, or the creation of dual environments for work and play.
- Android for Work – not only are business-ready Xperia smartphones and tablets unique devices for work – with waterproof form factors, great battery life and productivity features – they will now also be part of the Android for Work ecosystem.
- Better storage control and customisation – with the option to easily move applications from internal memory to SD card – giving you more control over your content, particularly useful for devices with slightly less space.
The roll out might vary across different carriers and countries.. We went hands-on with the Sony Xperia Z3 running on Android 5.0 at the MWC 2015 earlier this month. Check out the video.
