Just my luck, as I was writing up a post that Android 14 update would most likely drop very soon, the update drops. Ah great timing.
The update has 3 changes:
- Supports the Android 14 OS version update
- To reduce battery wear, your Walkman will now automatically turn off after 72 hours of inactivity, even when Auto power off is set to Off
- Provides security updates (the security patch level of the Settings menu will reflect August 2024)
The A-Series is discounted now on Amazon Germany -17%. Unfortunate the other areas like US, Canada and UK, there no discounts. I am still in the market for a new Walkman, but not sure if I will save up for a new Xperia or wait for a new line of Walkmans.
Please leave your comments on the new update in below. Thanks to everyone who sent this in as well.
Amazon US - NW-A300 | NW-ZX700
Amazon Canada - NW-A300 | NW-ZX700
Amazon UK - NW-A300
Amazon DE - NW-A300
I always loved their Xperia's, but Sony seemingly always drops support quickly to get in the next generation in. Now hearing that the A300 is being discontinued in Germany just under 2 years, it sounds like it's the same situation, and they might be getting ready to release a new line soon.
ReplyDeletecurious, where did you hear they were dropping the A series? I've yet to see or hear anything about new models. But maybe soon.
DeleteAnonymus probably mixed up discounted and discontinued.
