Sony Xperia 5 V receives Android 15 update
The Sony Xperia 1 V received its update to Android 15 the week before last. Now it’s the turn of the next model from last year: The Sony Xperia 5 V is now also getting the latest Android 15 firmware. There are already reports on Reddit from people who have received the update notification. The download is 1 GB in size. After installation, the Sony smartphone switches to software version 67.2.A.2.41.
The update brings Private Space to the Sony Xperia 5 V. This allows you to keep apps in a separate, secure area in the app drawer. In addition, there is a color contrast setting for the home screen, a new way to change the clock displayed on the lock screen, and Side Sense gets a new dashboard feature that lets you quickly change or check the status of your most frequently used settings.
The quick settings panel and notification panel have been redesigned, and you can take a screenshot from the quick settings. There are also changes to how pop-up windows work, as well as some other minor changes. All details and information can be found at the source linked below.
As usual, the rollout of the update should be staggered. Therefore, it will probably take a few days, if not weeks, until all Sony Xperia 5 V devices on the market display the update notification.
