Owners of Sony Xperia Z3 or Xperia Z2 may have the Android upgrade available to them already. Generally, the newest devices get the Android Marshmallow update first and the oldest devices receive it last.

It is confirmed that the Xperia MS, the Xperia C4, Xperia M4 Aqua and the Xperia Z4 Tablet will get the update.

However, there is no information on when these Sony devices will receive the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update.

Meanwhile, Android N is expected to be released at Google I/O 2016. Google I/O 2016 has been confirmed to run May 18 to May 20. The search giant has already released the Android N Developer Preview (second version) that users can install on latest Nexus devices for early testing.

It is already available on the General Mobile 4g, the Pixel C tablet, Nexus Player, Nexus 6P, Nexus 6 and Nexus 5X, according to a report from The Verge.
