The user who holds the Xperia X Dual (F5122) handset has shared the screenshot and confirms the download size as 1202.4 MB (1.2 GB). The xperia x compact model may have same download size like Xperia X. It will also update the android security patch of both devices to January 1 2018. This is an official software update, so it will be available for download via OTA.

Because of phase roll out, the OTA update will take some time or even days to reach your region. Once the firmware is available for your device, you will be notified with the prompt. Still you didn’t receive the update notification then tap the Settings menu and choose About phone > Software update.
