I am currently seeing 2 different dates on Sony FB page.. :s22:

15 Oct:
Sony Mobile SG Hi there! Pre-order is available only through Sony Store & Sony Centre. Please wait for official announcement on availability and price plans through different telco channels when it's officially available for sale on 15th Oct. Meanwhile, you can visit any Sony Store or Sony Centre to try the phones first!

8 Oct:
Sony Mobile SG Hi! As we understand, collection for pre-order is from 8th Oct onwards. You will be notified further when the stocks arrive!

Does this mean those who pre-ordered get it 1 week earlier? :eek:

Went to preorder the xz at 313 sony store last saturday, and yes, the person was saying that collection will start from 8 oct, *unless there's any cork up then latest collection date will be 15oct, that's what the salesperson told me.

Think they are just playing safe..

Official release date is 15 Oct for everywhere, if they manage to get the stock early then they will release to those who pre-orderd first...

Sony Bugis also said the same..

tentatively pre-order can be collected on the 8th, unless there's a cockup somewhere somehow..

just placed an order for the XZ after a long contemplation with my Z5P... :D:D

i guess the only concern would be the usb C charging cable would render our arsenal of cables at home pretty much useless..

I think different dates, one for local sets non telco and
another date for telco sets.

Anyway review for XZ is out, positive review so far.

A quick question! Are they using metal or plastic for the back?

And mind you, those are three different materials you're touching - glass on the front (an unspecified generation Gorilla Glass), polycarbonate on the frame and ALKALEIDO metal on the back.
The curious sounding ALKALEIDO alloy is actually a trademark name belonging to the Japanese steel manufacturer Kobe Steel and our research showed it's a type of aluminum alloy.
Sony claims that they've chosen ALKALEIDO to complement their phone's premium design with a material, which has an extra shine and a feeling of depth.

There you go.
