Sony Xperia Pro arrives in Europe

Sony, a major pro-camera phone accessory, the Xperia Pro, was announced in February last year and finally went on sale in the US and Japan this January at a hard-to-swallowing price of $ 2,500.

Today, the company announces that the Xperia Pro is arriving in Europe, where it will be offered in the UK, Germany and the Nordic countries.

While Sony has refrained from providing an exact release date for the phone, it has announced that pre-orders have started today in the UK and will be available until 13 May. Probably then, May 14 is the actual launch date (but only a guess on our part). Furthermore, no pre-order information was given to other countries, so it seems that the UK may get the Xperia Pro ahead of them.

As a quick reminder, the main claim of the Xperia Pro's fame is that it can be used as an external, higher quality Sony Alpha digital camera monitor via its microHDMI connector. The phone can also instantly send photos and videos you take in the field with the camera, thanks to its skillful 5G connection.
