Sony Xperia V owners can now join other Xperia owners as proud recipients of a leaked Android 4.3 Jelly Bean build ahead of its official release.

The leaked Xperia V Android 4.3 Jelly Bean build comes courtesy of the EXR team over at the XDA Developers forums. The update, build 9.2.A.1.131, applies to the Sony Xperia V LT25i model and can be downloaded here.

The usual warning labels apply here: the firmware is not an official release and requires some know-how in Android flashing. Remember, there's always a chance that your device could brick, so be sure to follow the instructions carefully.

The Xperia V Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update is essentially the same as the Android 4.3 updates that have already landed on Xperia Z devices, meaning it contains many of the same features. Downloaders can expect Sony's Smart Social Camera, the latest versions of all Sony apps, and even a new Stamina mode that should lengthen battery life.
