Sony Mobile Canada has confirmed that the Xperia ZL (C650X) will be heading to Canada, instead of the water resistant Xperia Z (C660X). We shouldn’t rule out the Xperia Z ever appearing in Canada as Sony Mobile confirmed on twitter that “right now we don’t have any news on availability”. More than likely it will be the ZL only. No carriers or pricing have been confirmed right now, but it shouldn’t be too much longer before details start to appear.
The Xperia ZL will be coming to Canada
Great news and you’re hearing it here first – The #XperiaZL will be coming to Canada. #SonyCES

Update 2: It looks like that previous tweet was misinformed. MobileSyrup got in touch with Sony Canada who released the following statement: “Everyone is really excited about the week we’ve had at CES. A global representative made an error regarding Canadian product availability. At this time we can confirm that Canadians will be receiving the Xperia ZL as previously announced, but we have nothing to announce about the Xperia Z availability in Canada at this time. We will share more news on future products as they are confirmed.”
