May be just security update

Where can we check a log about it?

Doesn't seem that anything other than security has changed.

The auto brightness is the same

Come on Sony, this 600 Euro phone is working like Alcatel for 50 Euro

Fix the auto brightness already ...

And that problem when the screen remains rotated after hanging up or using some apps

Camera is also awful for the price range. It is unsharpening the images and it doesn't support camera2 api for hdr+ and raw format. I m very disappointed too with sony. Sony just made a 835 snapdragon 2017 phone nothing else in it. UI and UX is so much 2014-2015.

Hi!

Exactly what is the problem with the camera?

My take supersharp pictures, raw format.!!!!, better if they could add a exposure lock.

How you capture in raw? Mine, captured photos are awful for that price range. My iPhone SE is a lot better. This one is loosing every detail.

Hi !

Missunderstanding, I dont take pictures in raw format,  it would be very, very large.  My Nikon d300 12Mpix gives a 12 - 15 Mb per picture !!!! in raw format. The XZP , probably 2-3 times that.

I have a XZP single sim,  I took a vacation picture on Crete , (19MP 4:3,  multispot metering, no prediction activated)   eg. very large picture on 1/1 resolution Even down to 50% ,  the picture was on 194 x 108 cm !!!!! and razor sharp.

Or do you shot and make crop, clip and cut from the original and extend it to a suitable size !!! 

(It is a Mobile phone , not a full fledged camera 🙂

Again I do really miss the exposure / focus lock feature (could not be to hard to fix)  and pheraps some control of the grain/sharpness in low level light mode.

I realize that in the grand scheme of things the most important security measures you can take are to closely monitor which applications and services you use. However, it's really surprising that my Sony XZ1C is still on the August 5th security update. You might be forgiven for assuming that a very recent phone like the XZ1C would be more up-to-date.

Meanwhile the US CDA 1310-4371 is still stuck on 47.1.A.2.324

I cannot believe how irresponsible Sony has been with the updates for this CDA

This might be the last Sony phone I buy. Next time, a Google Pixel. I mean, the difference in price is not that big.
