Additionally, Xperia L includes a battery "Stamina" mode, which can increase its standby time.

The phone runs on Android 4.1.2 out of the box. An Android 4.2.2 Jellybean update was released in October 2013 for the Xperia L.
AOSP (Android Open Source Project)[edit]
On December 13, 2013 Sony Mobile Communications added Sony Xperia L to its 'AOSP for Xperia' programme, on which Sony stated was first device with 1 GHz Dual Core MSM8230 processor for which they had added AOSP support. It made possible for advanced users i.e. with unlocked phones to build and flash Android Kitkat( Android 4.4) on Xperia L. Though this software was not intended for daily use. And also that it is not a software update from Sony. It is the source code and software binaries required to build "Stock" Android from.

CyanogenMod[edit]
On May 5, 2014, FreeXperiaProject, a community for Xperia devices developing CyanogenMod for several Sony Xperia devices, announced that they will be officially supporting the Sony Xperia L from then onwards.
