The long wait is over!!! Xperia Z1 will be available in the Philippines Officially on October 19, 2013

Xperia Z1 has been available in our country a few weeks ago. Those units are from the Grey market, meaning is that they are out of warranty from our local Sony Mobile stores. But good news! the long wait is over! Sony Mobile will officially launch it here in the Philippines on October 19, 2013. The SRP price is Php 34,990 (USD 811.84), do remember that price for cash payments might be cheaper. The cheapest price I saw was from CMK which is Php 32,800. For me its better to buy gadgets with official manufacturers warranty for your peace of mind.
