Hello,
I've bought unlocked Sony Xperia Z here in UK last summer and I'm going to Japan for holiday this autumn. Do you have any idea if it's going to work or not? If yes with which networks (I would like to get local sim card)? I know that there use to be some limitations but I couldn't find anything definite regarding this phone.
Thanks for your time.

NTT DoCoMo has officially released pricing for the Sony Xperia Z (SO-02E), due to launch in Japan on 9 February 2013. The price looks equivalent to that mooted in other parts of the world, coming in at 77,280 Yen (£545, €645, $860).
Various pricing options exist for monthly plans and full details can be found : http://www.nttdocomo.co.jp/charge/simulation/index.html
Funny how people outside japan crave for the japanese version of Xperia Z yet someone from japan want the international version of the device lol!

It looks like Xperia ZL is not launching in Japan? Anyone knows if its true?
Don't even see it in their products lineup!! i'm looking forward to ZL and not Z

Sony's released plan of the devices is messed up. Everything they said on their announcements didn't come true. And yeah japan should also recieve Xperia ZL as sony did mention that both Xperia Z and ZL will be available on all southeast asian countries before european countries gets it. But look what's happening now. Europe has already demo units and released Xperia Z now but on Southeast Asia only japan got the Xperia Z release and only singapore got a demo unit with them. Rest of Southeast Asia has no news whatsoever about these devices. And yeah my most anticipated device "Xperia ZL" looks like got left out of the dark now also.
Will the ZL released in germany?
Japan.
Yeah.... no news from japan...
I think buy the sim free version from the net, n use it with the Japan's line is the best choice....
well...

That will be great except even with a SIM Free phone you need to have the IMEI registered by Docomo to use it, and they won't register any device they haven't sold.

yup.... so we need to go to docomo to register the ZL IMEI id...
Didn't know Japan is that harsh here in Singapore, it's illegal for the carriers to lock the phones

Hi everyone,
I live in Turkey , and I want to buy Xperia Z.
I looked at a few sites, such as clove.co.uk / handtech.co.uk / Unlocked-mobiles.uk
Do you have experience in international shipping site which you offer me?
You can find Xperia Z in Istanbul/Kadikoy. I've bought mine last week.
Importing GSM phones from outsite of Turkey is a big pain.

Dear cjcelo,
I've bought my Xperia S with Handtec, and my Xperia Z with Clove. Both came in perfect conditions and the support was amazing, in both companies. Handtec support is superb, solved the issue I had with the charger when I ordered the S, even if my order was made from Brazil (I'm also an International Customer).
Both can be recommended.
Erich
Ynt: international order for Xperi Z
You can not import mobile phones to Turkey yourself, it will not pass custom check, so my advice is do not even try it.
One of my friend, who is planning to study in US, is crazy about Xperia Z, he z planning to buy one since its released, but the only thing which stops him, is that someone told him that, most the indian manufactured phones, wont support US frequencies. I just need experts opinion on this. Please enlighten me and my friend.

It'll most likely work on the GSM networks like AT&T and T-Mobile, but most certainly won't on Verizon/Sprint.
I am planning to buy Sony xperia Z1. In eBay it shows only seller warranty is applicable as it is imported and in MPN it has been put up ebay_SonyXperiaZ116GBUnlockedBlack. what that means ? and will i be able to use that phone in India? any cons in that ?
Ask the seller about compatibility between carriers and which model it is (C69XX)

No Problem it works in India, there are 2 models imported, c6902 (3g only) and c6903 (LTE), i too bought it for a friend (then 3g model).
Also in my opinion z2 is around 27k and z1 24k. shell a few grand more and get the z2. you won't regret it. if shortage in cash, then save up. it's worth the time
