I ordered my XZ in from Amazon UK, together with the MDR-XB950BT freebie.. Total cost converted came down to $984 for everything including GST and shipping

It was meant to arrive today however I got a UPS exception "We were unable to load the package on the plane as scheduled. " yesterday, which now means it won't be here until Tuesday (due to Labour Day)..

Got mine for $879 but probably no freebie. At least, no mention of that. No freebie, no colour choice - the best thing was the price!

Just have to get the right Fast Charger for it and a case now.

Not a bad freebie - $350 a pair in NZ!

Yea I ordered it in blue. At the point of ordering in September it was around $1065, the exchange rate has dropped brutally again bringing it down nearly $100 in a months time, luckily Amazon only charge the card at the moment of shipping :)

Certainly some nice prices floating around and great to see people buying it. I really hope Xperia flagships are around for many years to come.

This is my likely order, holding out for dual SIM 64GB. I'm going to Oz in a couple of weeks so will get it delivered there. Want it now but my X Performance is doing just fine.

Still tossing up if I should buy one to have a play with. I likely have a Pixel arriving from Australia Monday too.

Can probably sell it for what I paid for it in a weeks time.

I purchased the XZ directly from Sony's store (Sylvia Park) yesterday. They price matched NL sale price of $879. The complimentary(?) case is out of stock but will be put on courier for free in a few days.

My impression at the time of purchase was that it was a Sony store bundle and the case was late to the party.

Seems NZ is one of those places where we do not get the freebies other places get. (Edit - or even the colours, for that matter!)

There's no mention of a bundle on the Sony NZ page for the XZ - or wasn't last time I looked a few days ago.

Just had a call from NL - phone has arrived, so heading over to collect shortly.

Then just have to work out how to transfer stuff from iOS to new phone...

It wasn't till I was paying for the phone that the staff member mentioned about the case being included with the phone and that it's a few days until stock arrive. Like you I hadn't noticed any mention on their website either.
