Unlocked Sony Xperia X Performance is now $70 cheaper

Less than two months after officially arriving in the US (unlocked), the Sony Xperia X Performance is now cheaper than at launch.

Initially sold for $699.99, starting this week, the handset can be bought for $629.99 via Sony's official US partners: Amazon, Best Buy, B&H Photo, and Reagan Wireless. That's $70 off the original price, and the phone is now certainly more attractive to potential buyers.

When we reviewed the Xperia X Performance, we noted that the biggest gripe we had with it was its high price. The smartphone lacks some of the features that its competitors are offering, including 4K video recording and fingerprint scanner (this is true only for the US version), so it's nice to see that Sony has come to its senses and it's asking a more reasonable price for the device.

Of course, sometime soon (perhaps in October in the US), Sony will release the brand new Xperia XZ, which is superior to the X Performance, and should cost $600 - $700. Thus, we can't say we recommend you to get the Xperia X Performance right now, but, if you really want to buy it, you can find it at the source link below.
