Xperia XZ2/XZ3 range get updates; Xperia XA/XA Ultra and E5 too

Sony Mobile has released a number of updates for older phones recently. First up last year’s flagship devices the Xperia XZ3 and the XZ2 family (XZ2, XZ2 Compact and XZ2 Premium) have received the May 2019 Android security updates. The build numbers have moved from 52.0.A.8.25 to 52.0.A.8.50.

Some even older handsets got updates out of the blue. This includes the Xperia XA which saw its firmware move from 33.3.A.1.115 to build 33.3.A.1.126, with the 5 December 2017 Android security patch. Its sibling, the Xperia XA Ultra, received an update from 36.1.A.1.106 to 36.1.A.1.112, but with the same 5 January 2018 Android security patch.

Lastly, the old budget Xperia E5 received a minor update, moving the build number from 37.0.A.2.248 to version 37.0.A.2.252.
