Sony announced that the new Xperia Z1S would be coming to T-Mobile exclusively, but somewhere I missed the part where it would be up for order today. Checking out the T-Mobile site this evening for something totally unrelated I stumbled upon the next Xperia Z device to be on the T-Mobile network. It is only available online until its official launch in stores January 22nd. Price wise, you are looking at $528 full price or monthly payments of $22 with $0 down. Assuming you are approved of course.
What does the Xperia Z1S offer? A heck of a lot.
Sony Xperia Z1S Spec outline
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor at 2.2 GHz
- 3000 mAh Battery (15 hours talk, 600 hours standby)
- 2 GB RAM
- 32GB ROM
- Expandable to 64GB via micro SD card slot
- 5-inch screen at 1920 x 1080 resolution
- 1080 HD video recording
- 20.7MP camera
- 4G LTE
- All on Android 4.3
While I would prefer Android 4.4 to be preinstalled, it shouldn’t be to far off. Add in that the device is waterproof like its predecessors and includes a MHL adapter in the box and you have a pretty killer device for just $22 a month.
Heck, I just looked up to see what my original Xperia Z is worth for trade in, $250 is pretty good. I wonder what I still owe on it?
With T-Mobiles recent announcement to pay you for your old device and buyout your contract, anyone thinking of switching for the Xperia Z1S? Maybe you are shooting for the LG G-Flex or possibly holding out for the Samsung Galaxy S5?
