Sony's "Concept for Android" which released last year for Z3 series has now been released for the Xperia X series on Xperia OS which is similar to the Nougat platform. A few days ago Sony had launched a beta for Nougat for the X performance and has now followed it with Concept for Android. It will be available only for single sim units sold across Europe with model number F5121.

The latest Concept for Android release will offer a peek into Sony's interpretation of latest Nougat features such as multi-window support, notifications, etc. Users will also get access to InTouch community which will put them in direct touch with the engineers and enable them to develop future Xperia phones.

To get the latest Sony's Concept for Android, users will have to download the concept installer app from the Google Play Store and follow the instructions. It is important that users backup all the data before proceeding with the installation. There is a possibility of all the previous data being deleted after installing the program, as reported by XDA developers.

According to a blog post by Sony, "If you don't like something; a feature or app isn't serving your needs - we want to hear about it, to either make the experience better or remove it entirely and focus on something else."

Sony considers the Concept for Android to be a crowdsourcing tool to get real-time feedback from the users. The program is available only for devices based on the Xperia OS. Sony's Concept for Android is a strategy by the company to push the Xperia products further by providing a community feel to the users. By offering a sneak-peek in the future features Sony intends to build a loyal fan base.

The Concept for Android is a good initiative as the users will have a say in the future Sony devices, which even Google does not offer. What do you think of the new initiative? let us know in the comment section below.
