Xperia Z not coming to Canada

[SGSdabbler]

Took delivery of my XZ Thursday. What an awesome device. Battery not lasting as long as I was hoping . I'll have to change my Nic now. Did the software update last night.

Vodacom South Africa.

meanwhile the rest of the world has completely moved on. Canadian consumers are notoriously unsophisticated. The fact that we eat up the 3 year contracts is proof.

I hate these 3 year contracts and these expensive ass plans i would go to Wind or Mobilicity but, they suck and the big 3 have the best service and know that they do and charge you up the ass for their services....

A little birdie at the Sony Store told me that the Z is coming to Canada around August!

WTF August? Don't even bother with that. Phone will be completely outdated by then.
Doesn't affect me anyway. I've had my Z since Feb. LOL

Bringing the Z around August is just pointless. We all know Sony tends to release two high end flagships per year and the second one is after summer usually.

Not really, the phone will still have great specs next to the HTC One and SGS4.

-Quad Core chip
-5" 1080p screen
-Very thin (7.9mm)
-2GB of RAM
-13.1 MP Camera
-LTE

One thing that would make it a hot seller is the fact that it is Water/Dust Resistant!

If the Z does come out in August, Back to School wise this would be a hot seller IMHO!

I actually prefer the ZL build. I'd end up skipping the Z anyway since the nexus 5 would only be a few months after an august release

Rumor says that Google is only releasing an updated version of nexus 4.

I tried zl didn't like it so I went for the z lol. You can always flash other countries fw.
There's no point waiting for the z anymore. The down side is that it doesn't have lte. Kinda miss the speed.

And by the time it's August, one Sony will be announced or launched and I'll be switching to that.

That rumor is 99.9% likely false

Not in canada. Sony announces the phablet in June/July - Canada will get it in November or something. One Sony in Q3 - Canadians will get it shipped by the time CES 2014 is over... Lets face it, Sony hates Canada, they don't give a buffalo **** on a nickel about Canada, and that will never change.

btw are you sure it's not the Tablet he is talking about? Sony said June for the Tablet Z, that means August in Canada.

 

[LitoNi]

I don't even understand why people would bother getting phones through carriers in Canada. I've never used a single phone from carriers, slow updates and locked bootloaders. All phones are bought overseas.
I love Asia.

 

[fredastere]

Maybe it will have the new version of the processor in August

No new cpu. Ramu confirmed that. Well at least of what he knows and spec said the same thing.

Sony isn't pulling the same crap as they did with the arc and arc s.

Nope it's the Z he saw my phone and said that they are getting it in August.

Because I can get it subsidized, and I can exchange it many times if there any imperfections (and I mean ANY), send it back at Rogers' expense. Besides, I can always flash NA firmware on it (most of the time).

Hm, interesting. Phablet will be released in July. Considering it's exactly like the Z, but bigger, I might get it instead, depending on what is here first.

I've talked to a Sony rep these days and I asked why canada didn't get the z, he said it's because most Canadians aren't ready to pay as much as the Z would cost, and somehow he's right, I've seen many people complaining about how expensive iPhone is, even on a three year contract,

I'm not saying Sony its right, but I quite understand why they have done it like they did
