Sony Xperia Z Ultra – Software & Apps
It offers the same native apps as the Xperia Z and Z1, and they are a mixed bag in terms of usefulness. At one end of the spectrum you have the well designed Walkman, Album (photo gallery) and Movies applications. At the other end, there’s the not so great PlayStation Mobile, Sony Select, Social Life and Xperia Privilege app offerings.
The most important thing is that the Sony’s presence is not as overbearing as some approaches to using the Android OS and the widgets can of course always be removed.
