Sony Xperia 1 II initial pre-order stock depleted, bundle changed

Just two weeks ago, Sony launched the pre-order campaign for its new flagship - the Xperia 1 II. It included a free pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 noise cancelling headphones but the phone started showing as out of stock in most markets yesterday. As of now now most Sony stores and its partners have altered the promo bundle.

It appears that the headphones stock was actually the problem as the pre-order campaign continues with a new bundle. This time around, you get the Sony Style Cover View XQZ-CVAT case, which usually costs €59.99.

Alternatively, the company might be looking to reach a different audience with its new bundle - those that would rather have a case out of the box than the headphones. We'll be hoping to get a clarification from Sony in the near future.
