Sony Android Firmware Updates

Following the Xperia 1 VIII (MK8)’s Android 17 update, Sony has now begun seeding the latest version of Google’s mobile OS to the Xperia 1 VII (MK7). Several Xperia 1 VII users on Reddit have reported that the Android 17 update is now arriving on their devices with the version 71.2.A.2.35 identifier.

The update is reportedly seeding to users across Europe and will likely reach more regions in the coming days. It comes in at 1.1GB and brings the same core features as the one for the MK8. These include the redesigned quick settings panel, new wallpaper and clock designs, custom icon shapes and more. You can go over the official Android 17 changelog here.
