How to update your Sony device →
This device has expired. Now what?
No more security updates will ever arrive for the Sony Xperia 10 III. If it's your daily phone, the safest move is to replace it — ideally with a model that stays supported for years. The old one still makes a fine offline camera, alarm clock or backup device.
The Sony Xperia 10 III in detail
How many years of updates does the Sony Xperia 10 III get?
Released in June 2021, the Sony Xperia 10 III received security patches until July 2023: 2 years and 1 month in total.
Among the 24 Sony phones in our database, 8 were supported for less time and 13 for longer. The median is 2 years and 6 months.
Across all brands, the median for phones is 4 years.

Can I keep using the Sony Xperia 10 III?
Yes, it still works. But every security hole found after July 2023 stays open. For daily use with banking, messaging and passwords, a supported device is the safer choice. As a spare without your main accounts (alarm clock, music player, camera), it's still useful. Do a factory reset before you give it away or recycle it.
