Sony Xperia XZ Premium Smartphone Now Available for Pre-Order

Have you been watching out for Sony's latest smartphone entry? If so, you're in luck. Best Buy announced today that pre-orders have begun for the Xperia XZ Premium. If you're someone who has been waiting for this day ... order, order, order!

The phone will cost you $799, and will come in your choice of three colors — Deepsea Black, Luminous Chrome, and Bronze Pink.

According to GSM Arena, the pre-orders should start arriving June 19. If you opt to pick up the phone in store, Best Buy locations should have units available starting June 18.

Be warned, the phone will not come with a fingerprint reader, as Sony cannot release these types of products in the United States. This is reportedly the result of past deals Sony has had in the US, and while the reasoning is vague, the consequence is Sony smartphones with disabled fingerprint readers.

If you are someone who doesn't mind signing into your device exclusively with passcodes, the Xperia XZ Premium might just be for you. If not ... you might be barking up the wrong tree.
