An unlocked version of Sony’s latest budget-friendly mid-range Android-powered smartphone, the Xperia M, is now officially available to purchase in the U.S. for $249.99 (with free shipping) directly from Sony Mobile.
Sony’s latest mid-range Android-powered smartphone, the Xperia M, was announced last month, and now Three U.K. has officially reported that it will be listing the device on its website starting October 11, in addition to offering the handset in its bricks-and-mortar stores as from today.
If you’re planning to pick up the new Sony Xperia Z1 here in the U.K. as soon as it becomes available, you may want to shop around first to see where you can get the best deal for you.
A number of retailers and carriers are throwing in some pretty nice freebies when you pre-order, including the new QX10 camera lens attachment worth £180, and the Sony SmartWatch 2 worth £170.
Sony finally put weeks of rumors and speculation to rest and made its new flagship Xperia Z1 official this week. Like many of the Japanese company’s most recent smartphones, the Xperia Z1 is water-resistant, and it boasts a 5-inch 1080p display.
Its biggest selling point, however, is its 20.7-megapixel rear-facing Exmor RS camera, which Sony insists is the “world’s leading” smartphone camera.
At an event in Berlin in just under two hours time, Sony will announce two attachable lenses that you’ll be able to stick onto the back of your smartphone to take better photos. They’re called the QX100 and the QX10, and you can see exactly what they’ll look like in the leaked press images above — and exactly how they’ll work in the leaked TV ad below.
