Pricing is yet to be revealed but you can expect it to be more expensive than the Xperia XZs which is priced at Php39,990.
How about if the handset will be bought from Japan, can I readily use it from here in the Philippines this June? For instance, the single nano-sim XZ premium is just around 60k+ Yen roughly 25k in PhP if converted, compared to SRP here of PhP45k.
