Sonys Xperia XZ Premium is expected to become available at the beginning of June, at least in some markets. That means theres still a lot of waiting to do if youre craving one, and the situation has been made worse by the fact that Sony chose to announce it at MWC in February - more than three months before its release.
However, if youre impatient and absolutely have to have an XZ Premium in hand as soon as possible, there is a solution - albeit an expensive one if you dont live in Bucharest, Romania. If you were there, you could just head to one specific pawn shop and pick up a prototype of the phone for RON 3,100 (thats around $733 or €685 at the current exchange rates).
Pawned Sony Xperia XZ Premium prototype
This shop has listed the prototype on OLX, Romanias leading classifieds website (think Craigslist equivalent). The proof is in the images you can check out above. The last one has the devices About screen on, and you can see that it is in fact reporting its model number as G8141, which is the correct one for the single-SIM version of the XZ Premium.
The writing on its back clearly reveals that its a prototype that should definitely not have been pawned. And that brings us to the next thing you ought to keep in mind if you want it - Sonys lawyers will probably act on this information quickly. That prototype is the companys property and the empl oyee it was assigned to is probably in trouble.
Anyway, if the Source link below goes down, you can still see the archived listing here.
