Sony Malaysia has just launched the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact, Xperia Z5 Dual and Xperia Z5 Premium Dual for Malaysia. The Xperia Z5 Compact is single SIM while the others offer Dual SIM versions but only the Xperia Z5 Premium Dual supports a 4K resolution TRILUMINOS display as well as a chrome mirror-like finish. It is also the only one without any Malaysia pricing but Sony Malaysia say they’ll reveal that next month. For now, the Sony Xperia Z5 Dual is going for RM2699, while the Xperia Z5 Compact will be priced at RM2299 and will be available starting from November.
