PRESS RELEASE

The Sony XperiaTM Z, Sony's innovative smartphone, is now available for pre-order on Three.

XperiaTM Z brings together the best of Sony's technology, design and connectivity to deliver a precision engineered full HD smartphone. The phone is smart, sleek and durable with a reflective glass surface and is resistance to dust and water which means it's perfect for taking photos in the rain or texting from the bath! 

The 5" full HD display has a Mobile BRAVIA® Engine 2 which automatically optimises images so they're sharper and brighter so you'll get the best in contrast and colour management. 

XperiaTM Z also offers more intelligent battery management with Battery STAMINA Mode so your phone lasts even longer. It knows when your screen is off, shuts down the battery-draining apps you don't need and then starts them up again when the screen is back on. Combined with the powerful 1.5GHz quad-core processor means you have a top performing smartphone which won't let you down. 

Sylvia Chind, Head of Devices at Three, said, "We're extremely pleased to offer the Xperia Z for pre-order from the 1st February and coupled with our highly competitive price plans and no surprise out of bundle data charges, this premium smartphone brings you the ultimate internet experience all on our Ultrafast network".

It will also be available for £36 a month with an upfront cost of £69 on The One Plan. Both plans come with a guarantee of no surprise out-of-bundle data charges and All- You-Can-Eat data.

Additionally the smartphone is available on Pay As You Go for £449.99 plus a top up. All in One 15 costs £15 and gives 30-day access to All-You-Can-Eat data along with 300 any-network minutes and 3,000 texts.
