Why do I need a Google account?

Your Xperia™ device from Sony runs on the Android™ platform developed by
Google. A range of Google applications and services are available on your device
when you purchase it, for example, Gmail™, Google Maps™, YouTube™, and the
Play Store™ application, which gives you access to the Google Play™ online store
for downloading Android applications. 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 from Google Play.
Synchronize your email, contacts and calendar using Gmail.
Chat with friends using the Duo™ application.
Synchronize your browsing history and bookmarks using the Google Chrome™
web browser.
Identify yourself as the authorized user after a software repair using Xperia™
Companion.
Remotely find, lock or clear a lost or stolen device using the Find my device
services.
