Last week, Sony unveiled its “Concept for Android” initiative which they say would involved trialling a stock Android-like UI on the smartphones of 500 Swedish Xperia Z3 users. It appears the trial is now well underway, and thanks to Swedroid, we have a whole heap of screenshots of the stripped down Sony UI – check out all the images below:
While the UI itself is stripped down, we still see the presence of Sony bundled apps. Overall, the “Concept for Android” UI looks like a pretty faithful recreation of a stock Android UI, however we’re interested in a more indepth look at the tricks that Sony has left in to make life easier. We’d hope that “Concept for Android” becomes a fully fledged theme for Xperia devices new and old, but we’ll have to see how long this trial drags on first.
