It seems Sony is back to s six-month cycle for some devices, with the Xperia XZ only on the market for a few short months since IFA 2016. Nevertheless, we have four new handsets from Sony mobile – some of which will have to compete with the LG G6 and Samsung Galaxy S8 for the best phone of 2017 title.
As is common with a new smartphone launch, there isn’t an exact release date for the XZ Premium just yet. However, Sony has confirmed it will arrive in ‘Spring’ so it won’t be too long before the phone goes on sale.
We also don’t have any pricing yet but as the original XZ launched at £539 and this model has higher specs, we can expect it to be a reasonable amount more. We’re guessing at least £599 but won’t be surprised if it’s more.
At MWC 2017, Sony announced three other phones with a slightly confusing naming system.
