Have you updated your KD-43X8309C? Let me know in the comments if you noticed a change in input lag or USB tuner performance.
You rely on a non-Play Store APK that hasn’t been updated since 2020, or you rarely use smart features (i.e., you use an external Apple TV or Fire Stick).
Crucially, this update does bring Android 10/11 – you remain on Android 9.0 (Pie).
Owners of the X83xxC series often complained that casting from an iPhone or Chrome browser would fail after 10 minutes of idle time. The new firmware updates the Google Cast framework to version 1.56. This resolves the "Session Expiry" bug, allowing for seamless YouTube queueing and Spotify streaming even when the TV is in standby mode.
Sony has categorized this as a Critical Stability and Performance Update , meaning it addresses underlying kernel issues rather than adding flashy new apps.
