Screen protection
Note
Before using your device, remove all protection films to enable full functionality.
Screen covers and protectors may help you protect your device against damage.
We recommend you use only those screen covers intended for your Xperia device.
The use of third-party screen protection accessories may prevent your device from
working correctly by covering sensors, lenses, speakers, or microphones and can
invalidate the warranty.
Starting your device for the first time
It is recommended that you charge the battery for at least 30 minutes before
starting up your device for the first time. You can still use your device while it is
charging. For more information on charging, see

The first time you start your device, a setup guide helps you to configure basic
settings, personalise your device, and sign in to your accounts, for example a
Google™ account.

Why do I need a Google account?
Your device from Sony runs on the Android platform developed by Google. A range
of Google applications and services is available on your device when you purchase
it, for example, Gmail™, Google Maps™, YouTube™, and the Google Play
application. To get the most out of these services, you need a Google account. For
example, a Google account enables you to do the following:
•
Download and install applications on Google Play.
•
Synchronise your email, contacts, and calendar using Gmail.
•
You can back up, restore and transfer your data from an old device to your new
device.
•
Chat with friends using the Google Duo™ application.
•
Synchronise your browsing history and bookmarks using the Google Chrome™
web browser.
•
Identify yourself as the authorised user after a software repair using Xperia
Companion.
•
Remotely find, lock, or clear a lost or stolen device using the Find my device
services.
