The changelog for build 23.0.1.A.5.77 (what a long version code!) contains:
- Enhanced audio volume in notifications and ringtones
- New Xperia™ camera app: Portrait retouch
- Improved Exchange ActiveSync performance
- Fine-tuned audio for speakerphone
- Stability and performance improvements
Those astute observers will note that this changelog notably does not include an update to Android 5.0 Lollipop, which is what I’d much rather have than a new camera feature. But hey, we do know that Sony are working on Lollipop for the Z3 so hopefully we see that early next year.

I recommend not updating as the battery life seems to be affected in a bad way.
It doesn’t seem to be related to your apps, but simply that the phone’s radio uses more power.
I noticed a 10-20% drain overnight, even if data, sync, Wifi, bluetooth, GPS, NFC was turned off.
Before that, it was only around 2-6% (using basic Stamina mode).
Got the OTA this morning.
I have the update I was able to get it via Sony’s PC companion program. It was shown on the update center app, however it requires you to update on the computer.
Furthermore I have been hounding sony and my carrier (optus) as to when lollipop will be ready not sure if ausdroid knows any better then myself. I got nothing 🙂
Sony are saying 1Q 2015 on G+
Cool, I’ll install that companion app onmy PC again. Thx Alex!
