Sony Ericsson is rolling out the first software update for its popular Xperia Arc and Xperia Play smartphones. The Android 2.3.3 update is currently available only in European region, but the company plans the wider roll-out to start by the end of this week or in the beginning of next week. The new Android 2.3.3 update will bring the Facebook inside Xperia feature to the Xperia Arc and Xperia Play smartphones, which was recently showcased during the launch of XPERIA Mini and Xperia Mini Pro.

The Facebook inside Xperia features works perfectly side-by-side with TimeScape and the Facebook for Android app. This update also brings lots of fixes and optimizations within many different areas. Check out the complete changelog below.

Changelog:

  • Battery performance
  • General software stability
  • Wi-Fi stability
  • HD Video recording performance (Xperia arc)
  • Touch responsiveness

This update will be soon available in other regions, but sadly, it won’t be available to the Verizon’s recently launched Xperia Play in the US. Back in March, Sony Ericsson announced that, the Xperia X10 will get the Android Gingerbread update. Now, the company has confirmed that, it will also get the Facebook inside Xperia functionality. Check out the video below, to learn more about the Facebook inside Xperia feature.
