The 5.1 Lollipop will first arrive for Xperia Z devices and then it will come to Xperia M2, Xperia M2 Aqua and other devices.

The last official announcement that Sony made through its official blog was on April 30. The post stated the Android 5.0 Lollipop upgrade is in progress for devices including the Xperia Z3 Dual, Xperia Z1, Xperia Z1 Compact and Xperia Z Ultra. The newest post confirms that even though Sony is in the process of rolling out 5.0 Lollipop to more markets, it will start the release of Android 5.1 Lollipop update to the confirmed devices in July.
