The tablet will reach Romania by the end of May with a starting price of EUR 500 but the exact price for Romania has not been established yet.

The smartphone XPeria Z will hit retail stores in Romania in a few weeks at a recommended price of EUR 600-EUR 650. The smartphone can work in water for up to 30 minutes, at one meter in depth.
