Software

The Xperia T3 was initially shipped with Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) with Sony's custom launcher on top. Some notable additions to the software include Sony's Media applications – Walkman, Album and Videos. NFC is also a core feature of the device, allowing 'one touch' to mirror what is on the smartphone to compatible TVs or play music on a NFC wireless speaker. Additionally, the device includes a battery stamina mode which increases the phone's standby time up to 4 times. Several Google applications (such as Google Chrome, Google Play, Google search (with voice), Google Maps and Google Talk) already come preloaded.

On 13 August 2014, the Xperia T3 got a minor bug-fixing update which moved the version number from 18.2.A.1.14 to 18.2.A.1.18 on the HSPA+ variant (D5102) and from 18.1.A.1.17 to 18.1.A.1.21 on the LTE variant (D5103, D5106).[5]

On 8 January 2015, the Xperia T3 got an update which moved the Android version to 4.4.4 (KitKat). The version number is 18.1.A.2.32 for the HSPA+ variant and 18.1.A.2.25 for the LTE variant, respectively.[6]
