When will O2 have more Sony Xperia 1 ii Stock

[Mbugsy18]

Hi, I ordered this phone on June 8th and have only received a text message saying sorry they are taking a little longer to deliver.

I would like to know when O2 stock will be available some preorders have had an email to have it by end of this week.

would I be able to collect from a store if it is open during these times instead if they have stock?

The only people that will know the answer to that are o2 and Sony..

The problem seems to be getting stock into the UK, as there is limited freight traffic into the UK from Japan where the Xperia 1 ii is manufactured, and everyone is fighting for the same space..


As a barometer of stock
Sony arent expecting any to be shipped direct from them till July.
Amazon dont know when they will have them, and CPW (not on o2) are not shipping till the 14th July
Exertis who supply the retail channel have seen 0 devices
The only network that seems to have them is Voda

Thanks, but some people who have received them say the box says made in Thailand.

If you haven't received an email, expect a 2-3 week delay. You could buy one in-store and then cancel the pre-order, but you wouldn't be eligible for any gift.

I ordered on the 4th and received the email that it should be here at the end of the week. I find that a little too hard to believe, as O2 has not been transparent about what is happening at all.

Hi @Mbugsy18

Same problem very limited onward air freight, and if Sony have put them on a ship except a 3-8week delay.

The usual pattern from factories in SE Asia, is Country - Hong Kong - Onward

I ship kit to the Philippines and it can take days even by Air to get their.
