The Xperia X1 has recently become available to pre-order on contract from the Carphone Warehouse. However, if you’re like me and prefer the sim free and contract free option, one website is offering the sim free model for £100 off the retail price.

The Xperia X1 should retail for £599.99 sim free with some retailers offering it for £570. Play.com have the Sony Xperia X1 available to pre-order at £499.99 ($847.68) saving you a sweet £100 ($169.54).

The Xperia X1 will be available from the 31st of October, that is assuming that it won’t be further delayed in the UK.
