Geeks all over the world are grinning happily, at least Sony Xperia Z3 owners. Google and Sony have announced a partnership that sees the well-known Xperia Z3 get a preview into the upcoming Android N. Sony Xperia Z3 is the first non-nexus device to get such treatment and this has me excited, a lot!

Android N introduces several great new features, with more to be added as Google continue to develop the Android N release.  Here are some highlights:

  • Multi-window
  • Bundled notifications
  • Direct reply notifications
  • Efficiency

Please note that this is a preview build and bugs could be in plenty. So if you are willing to deal with the minor bugs just to enjoy the latest of Android, give it a try.
