Having announced that the Xperia X10 would receive no updates beyond Éclair a couple of months back, Sony Ericsson are now promising X10 owners a boost straight to Android 2.3.3 in late Q2 or early Q3, it has been reported.
Rikard Skogberg of Sony Ericsson says that the company has “listened to its consumers”, and will now be developing the Ginterbread-toting Xperia Arc, Neo and Play, which will all lead to the X10 being brought up to speed via special development project.
Some features from the 2011 Xperia phones are likely to be added to the X10, though some earlier functionality will be lost in the process. Therefotre, the Gingerbread update will not be delivered over-the-air, but via a PC update utility.
