Sony Xperia Z USB Drivers – Download Now

The popular Sony Xperia Z was first unveiled at the CES 2013, and the phone has started releasing in various countries. It is one of the most high-end Android phones by Sony with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean and comes with an amazing set of features. Most of you who would have bought the phone can easily connect it with the computerusing Sony PC Companion or Bridge for Mac, but for those who can’t, we have the Sony USB drivers for Xperia Z — they are bundled with the Sony software package. PC Companion (Windows) and Bridge for Mac is a collection of tools and applications you can use when you connect your device to a computer.

Xperia Z USB drivers are the same as the other Sony Android devices. These new phones do not support mass storage anymore, but it does support MTP which allows you to add or remove files from your 16GB or 32GB of phone storage. MTP drivers are always included with the stock Android phone software — but could have been removed by Sony to include their own drivers. ADB drivers and Fastboot drivers will need to be downloaded from the Android SDK. We have an entire section full of Android USB Drivers, but we have that covered as well for you below on how to download and install the drivers.

Sony Xperia Z USB Drivers for Windows

Like we said, the USB drivers for Xperia Z are always bundled with Sony PC Companion or MTP drivers are part of the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. For transferring media content, photos and other files from your phone, you need to have a micro USB cable (preferably the one you got with the phone) for the phone.

• Recommended: Download and install Sony USB drivers or PC Companion first for Xperia Z!
• Connect your Xperia Z with the computer using that USB cable.
• Now wait for the computer to recognize the device.
• Several drivers including the modem, MTP service etc. will be installed automatically.

Once finished, you will see a new media device in My Computer. You can now transfer photos, music, videos or any other files from and to your Xperia Z USB memory.
