Sony has also made it clear that users who have updated their smartphones won;t be able to downgrade to a lower version of Android.

Don’t forget folks! Android Nougat rollout is region specific so if it doesn’t pop up on your device, wait patiently for it. Another thing is that if you have a carrier-tied smartphone, it is likely to take longer to get the update. The carriers need to first grant approval and that, in simple terms means more delays.
