SONY PHONES THAT ARE GOING TO RECEIVE FEBRUARY SECURITY PATCH?
The list is not big, and it includes only a few Sony device, which includes the high-end ones. It includes Sony Xperia XZ, X Performance, Xperia X or an X Compact. If you own one of those phones, then congrats because you will be one of the users that will get the February Security Patch and that too, quicker than Pixel phones. The update comes with the Build Number 39.2.A.0.417 with the date February 1st, 2017 for the Sony Xperia XZ and Z Performance. For Sony Xperia X and X Compact, it comes with the build number 34.2.A.0.311. One weird thing we noticed is the absence of Z5 which is surely one of the best smartphones from Sony that has already got Nougat update. We hope that the February Security Patch will be rolled out soon.
