Like the US, Canada will be getting the entire Sony Xperia X family which consists of the Xperia X, X Performance, XA, and XA Ultra. Just last week, Sony began rolling out the Xperia X to Europe and Canada won’t be far behind with the first handsets shipping in late June. However unlike the US, there so far doesn’t appear to be any pre-order goodies but at least they’re getting plenty of carrier support which includes:
- Bell
- Rogers
- Virgin Mobile Canada
- WIND Mobile
- Videotron
It’s worth noting that the Canadian variant of the Xperia X and Xperia X Performance will also have their fingerprint sensor enabled unlike the US version.

No word yet on pricing but here is some corporate talk from Kunihiko Shiomi, the newly appointed President of Sony Mobile Communications in North America:
Sony Mobile is passionate about creating the most intelligent and unique experiences for our users, bringing best-in-class technologies to help amplify the activities they love doing every day. Xperia X series is designed to let you interact with the world around you in exciting ways, making lives more enjoyable and delivering new intelligence that sets it apart
Equally curious is that Canada is receiving fairly bland colors as Rose Gold and Lime Gold are seemingly missing from all five carriers.
Update:
Had missed out on listing Rogers as a carrier for the Xperia X Performance while mistakenly listing Virgin Mobile and WIND.
Discuss:
Will you be getting the Xperia X in Canada?
