TechNow: Sony Xperia Z2 UK launch to be a lil slow

The Sony Xperia Z2 was supposed to launch in early April (with a free 32" TV no less), but there seems to have been a delay. So much for shortages not causing a delay.
Sony states that all pre-orders placed through its key partners will be fulfilled, but the launch remains set for April. There will be some shortages - Sony does not expect to "meet the high demand across all our sales channels". Additional information on retail availability will be released later.

The Sony Xperia Z2 costs £540 off-contract, while monthly taxes for 2-year plans are £42 get you the phone for free. 

The TV deal is from Vodafone, while Unlocked Mobiles offer a free wireless speaker, noise-cancelling headphones and digital content with a pre-order.

The phone's tablet counterpart, the Xperia Z2 Tablet, is already on sale in the UK.
