• If you’ve got a Sony PlayStation 4, you might recognize our new user interface – we’ve added the same sleek launch animation and live wallpaper across the lock and home screens. You’ll also spot a revamped Status Bar and Quick Settings, now more intuitive and customisable (also with a fresh new look), cleaned up to ensure you only get the notifications you really need.

• As you might expect, we’re also uplifting Sony’s entire native app portfolio to the latest versions bringing tweaked / improved / current experiences for one and all. Some of our favorites look like:

* Messaging – a few UI adjustments here & there, including a slicker “send” animation, and deeper Emoji support for some expressive fun. Also worth noting, you’ll find smileys wherever there’s an app with a keyboard.

* Email – you’ll be able to both load and see more mails… but don’t fret, navigation of said load is easier with a more responsive viewing pane – split screen modes divide info for easy digest. Especially useful / works a treat on Xperia Tablet Z.

* Smart Social Camera – our social imaging experience makes its debut on our first Z Series devices; a selection of Xperia Camera apps directly accessible from your viewfinder, including personal favourite “Creative Effect”, and more for download to boot!

* Battery STAMINA Mode – level-upping our unique power management feature, bringing smarter data management & more for prolonging your juice.

• Sony’s Media apps: WALKMAN, Album and Movies, with Sony Entertainment Network cloud service integration – a more converged and full Sony entertainment experience – Sony Entertainment Network & PlayMemories integration with a more intuitive UI, better download speeds, and more.

• And proving pretty popular, now totaling over 2 million downloads (!) – our unique custom interface experience: “Xperia Themes”, with downloadable UI packs from Sony Select – skin up to 280 assets across your Xperia smartphone with a variety of styles.
