Sony Xperia Z1 Compact release date and price: where can I get it?

When, where and how much?

The Sony Xperia Z1 Compact may be the smartphone the Android world has been waiting for as it delivers a premium experience in a smaller package.

Taking the quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM and 20.7MP camera from its big brother, the Xperia Z1, the Z1 Compact is certainly well equipped.

With a mooted SIM-free price of under £450 it could well give the pricier iPhone 5C a run for its money as well as challenging the slightly cheaper Galaxy S4 Mini and HTC One Mini.

We've been on the hunt for information on where you can get the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and we'll be constantly updating this page with more information as we get it.

For the moment set your focus on early February for the Z1 Compact to hit stores.

O2

The bubbly network has confirmed on Twitter that the Xperia Z1 Compact will be "coming to us soon", although there's no word on tariffs or a firm release date.

And the rest

We're yet to hear from the likes of EE, Vodafone, Three, Carphone Warehouse and Phones 4U, but when we do we'll update this page.

Online retailers

Our first hint of a price has come via Unlocked Mobiles which already has the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact up for pre-order at £438.98, with the choice of black, white, pink and lime.

In terms of an Xperia Z1 release date, the retailer has pegged if for February 7 - although these dates can be a little fluid.
