Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact is fated to get very soon the Android 6.0 Marshmallow upgrade. Per new reports, Marshmallow will come anytime in December 2015 or in the first quarter of 2016.
Sony is expected to roll out the Android 6.0 Marshmallow software to the Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact device next year. According to a previous report circulating, the biggest Android software in history will be released to Sony devices in December 2015. There were also reports saying that the update will move to January or later in April 2016 as the device had just received an update of Android 5.1.1 Lollipop version.
However, users should wait for the official statement straight from Sony as these reports have not been confirmed either by the Japanese mobile phone manufacturer.
Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact is one of the devices that recently received the supposed final version of Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update earlier this week. Other Sony device that received this update as well are varying models of Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact.
Meanwhile, the Android 6.0 Marshmallow upgrade is bringing some minor yet helpful features like a stylish clock, a memory manager, and an option for messages to pop up on the lock screen.
The new clock goes a little bit stylish than the original version. Google attempts to take a notch with the app accessory by redesigning it into a more fashionable digital piece that gives a visual impact. The date text appears in all caps while the font of the time text gets a little thicker or bolder.
The new memory manager will definitely help manage the memory use of the device which has been an ongoing issue with the software. Marshmallow allows users to check how the memory is going over the last few hours with the installed apps individually listed. This works even without a third-party app. The Memory option in the Settings menu is the one monitoring all these.
Marshmallow also incorporates a message on the lock screen to pop up. Before proceeding to the complete message, users will be able to take a peek right from the screen even when it is locked. The text is located way below the date and time and less obvious than them.
