Late last night (or early this morning) T-Mobile finally approved and released the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for the Sony Xperia Z3. T-Mo’s popular product guru, Des Smith, Tweeted yesterday evening that the update rollout would begin at midnight Pacific time. As well as getting a taste of Lollipop for the first time, Z3 users will also be able to use T-Mobile’s 700MHz frequency band 12 LTE network.

We’ve already had a couple of readers get in touch during the early hours of this morning to confirm that the update was successfully installed. Saying that – at time of writing – both the software updates progress page and the Z3’s individual software versions support page are yet to be updated. Both still show Android 4.4.4 as the latest update.

Let us know if you manage to get the update downloaded and installed successfully and how you like it with Sony’s custom skin on top.
