The Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is now up for pre-order in the UK, although it’s not coming cheap. Expansys has the gaming smartphone listed for £539.99, which puts it in line with the European prices we reported on yesterday. However, Play.com has it listed slightly cheaper at £519.99, albeit a good £70 more expensive than the Xperia arc.
Play.com lists the release date as 28 March 2011, whilst Expansys lists it as 31 March 2011. Given the differences, we imagine both sites have given an educated guess rather than knowing anything official. The Xperia Neo is also up for pre-order, with Expansys wanting £374.99, slightly cheaper than the European prices.
