Sony Xperia Z3 to Launch on T-Mobile Later This Month

Sony_Xperia_Z3_T_Mobile

For the most part, 2014 has been a disastrous year for Sony Mobile. The division that was supposed to be one of the three main pillars of Sony that would help reinvigorate the company and help them turn a profit will instead cause a $2.1 billion net loss for FY 2014. One main culprit has been a lack of presence by Sony in the US. With the announcement of the Xperia Z3, Sony is looking to change that outlook. Later this month, Sony will launch the Xperia Z3v on Verizon, a big move for a company that has had practically no carrier support in the US.

In addition to Verizon, the Sony Xperia Z3 will also be coming to T-Mobile with pre-orders going live soon. After the jump, we have more details.

While Verizon customers will have to wait till October 23rd to get their hands on the Xperia Z3v, T-Mobile users will have to wait an extra week with an October 29th availability. The Uncarrier network will begin taking pre-orders on October 15th where “Well-Qualified Customers can get the flagship smartphone for no upfront payment as long as they fork over an extra $26.25 a month on a two-year contract. Unlike the Xperia Z3v which includes additional tweaks that are exclusive to Verizon, the Xperia Z3 on T-Mobile will be identical to other Xperia Z3 models that Sony has launched throughout the world.
