Sony has revealed its plan to issue patches, where they officially confirmed that there would be no patches for the Sony Z5 family. This news was confirmed by the official tweet from Sony, which says “Xperia Z5 Premium will not get a security patch update for Spectre and Meltdown”. It is clear to us that if this patch is not issued to Xperia Z5 Premium, it won’t apply to entire Xperia Z5 family which includes Z3+ and Z4 Tablet.
