The purple version of Sony Xperia Z was launched in the UK a few weeks ago, but the smartphone was exclusive to O2 and sold via Carphone Warehouse retailer.

However, starting mid-April, Sony fans who wish to purchase this particular color version for Xperia Z will be able to do so at Clove UK as well.

The good news is that the phone will be unlocked and SIM-free, which means that O2’s exclusivity over the purple Xperia Z will end in mid-April.

According to Clove, the smartphone is expected to arrive in stock on April 15 and will be available for purchase for £500 / €585 / $765 outright. Check it out here.

Keep in mind that the Xperia Z will ship with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean platform out of the box, but will receive an upgrade to Android 4.2 in the coming months.
