You no longer need a Nexus device to get your hands on Android M early. Sony has made the Developer Preview available on a dozen Xperia devices, including the flagship Xperia Z3, but you’ll need to flash it all by yourself.

MultiROM, the popular tweak that allows users to boot between an almost unlimited number of ROMs on their Android-powered smartphones and tablets, now supports Sony’s latest Xperia devices. So, if you can’t decide whether you want CyanogenMod, ParanoidAndroid, or Sony’s stock firmware, you can now install all three and switch between them.

If you have a smartphone or tablet from the Sony Xperia Z family, you’re guaranteed an Android 5.0 Lollipop upgrade no matter how old your device. Sony has vowed to upgrade all Xperia Z devices — including the original Xperia Z, the Xperia ZL, the Xperia ZR, and of course, the new Xperia Z3.
