Each manufacturer is more or less free to choose whom he will update. Better to check that your equipment is in their lists if you do not want to wait for anything and Sony has just communicated his, or at least a draft on its official blog.

Eight smartphones and tablet

Unsurprisingly, it includes all the 2016 models Almost. Only the Xperia E5 missing but that was expected given its positioning.
