Sony has been rolling out the Android 11 update for its devices for the past few weeks. All the eligible smartphones have started receiving the update, except the Sony Xperia 10 II. Now, the company has begun to seed the update for this phone as well.

According to XDA Developers, the Android 11 update for the Sony Xperia 10 II is currently live in South East Asia. The update comes with build number 51.1.A.0.485 and weighs 993.5MB in size. Just like any other OTA update, it is only available for select users and should be hitting the units in the other regions in the coming days.

Anyway, if you own this handset, you can head over to Settings > System > System update to check manually for the update.

That said, the latest major update for the Sony Xperia 10 II brings all the goodies of Android 11, such as chat bubbles, smart device controls, and new media controls in the quick settings panel to name a few. Other than these, the update also adds a feature called Battery Care that allows users to set the maximum charging limit so that the battery’s longevity can be increased.

As per the update timeline shared by Sony, this device should be receiving the Android 11 update in February. However, the rollout has begun early just like the other eligible smartphones. Hence, we expect the company to finish seeding the update to all the handsets in all the regions by next month.
