Sony Xperia 1 is becoming hard to find in Europe
Sony is seemingly struggling to keep the Xperia 1 in stock in Europe. We don’t know what’s the reason behind the lack – it’s either high demand or low supply. On the other hand, it’s clear that the purple one is the hardest to find.
In the UK, Sony Mobile is all sold out. You can find the phone on Amazon (albeit only several units) and also at Clove (only the Black one, Purple is sold out). Very has Purple in stock (but no other colors).
Sony Mobile’s online store for Germany, Italy, France and Spain shares the Xperia 1 stock and the Purple color is sold out. Black, Gray and White are available.
In Germany, MediaMarkt has both Purple and Black units, but they take a while to ship out (9-10 working days).
The phone is available in several stores in Norway, but none of them offer the Purple version. In Poland, there is only the Black version.
