One of Sony's other sites (I forget where...) indicated that at least one ZL model would support AT&T LTE.
What is interesting is that it sounds like (from another thread) that AT&T will not be selling this model - which would make it the first device not sold by AT&T to support their LTE bands. I'm wondering if this might be a sign that AT&T will be allowing their MVNOs to use the LTE network soon???

I would assume the ZL model would be the C6506. From what I've seen from stat sheets it's probably the one coming to North America. In Canada, were getting the ZL, and the C6506 supports our Canadian LTE and HSPA bands.

It's interesting because C6506 will support ALL of our Canadian carrier bands for 2g, 3g AND 4g. One phone everywhere = more support for development and accessories. What's even better is ATT and MetroPCS are also compatible on every respective bands (including LTE)

I was going by what I knew at that time, but it won't be coming from AT&T, only works on it's network. I can't say too much right now other than there is a model that supports AT&T LTE. Don't know when or if it will be sold direct from Sony in the US.
ZL is coming soon.

thanks, i ordered the xperia z from clove 2 days ago (couldn't wait till july for sony to release this in the US) but now i have canceled it, hopefully they'll announce the release date soon.
Is the AT&T variant going to have different specs?
Whatever ATT offers, I hope it retains the ip57 certification. Huge selling(buying) point for me.

Is it confirmed that NTT Docomo version is pentaband too? (HSPA 850/900/1700/1900/2100) Or is there an error in Negri Electronics specifications? (Not that it would surprise me)

Negri is good at updating the spec or providing right info. I got the info from their twitter feed. I think it's best to call and confirm before buying. My guess is it is pentaband even for the NTT Docomo version.
Two things to point out about the docomo version
1 - Permanent root does not work.
2 - it has the docomo logo.

Not sure about the them being good with the info, I sent them a couple of errors that they never fixed in their page, right now I remember pointing them that they were using pictures of Optimus Black in the Optimus 2X page and they told me "the only difference is the back cover" and so far they never fixed it(https://negrielectronics.com/lg-p990h-optimus-2x-speed-black-unlocked.html), so don't trust them that much
In any case thanks for the info, I'm more interested in maybe getting it cheaper via other channels if the phone is pentaband, but I need to confirm this because http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=3348&c=samsung_galaxy_nexus_sc-04d_samsung_prime states "UMTS800 (B6), UMTS2100 (B1)" only.
You can get it much cheaper from amazon.co.jp and yahoo japan auctions.
Just use one of those services nerds use to buy video games and anime from Japan.

I surely hope not. FWIW, this says the model number is "SC-04D" whereas dailysteals says "i9250" (and I haven't seen any variant of the i9250 yet). Also, the fact that there was a white version strongly indicates it's the i9250 (unless there is also a white version of the docomo model).
I guess there is only one way to find out

you could use the uk xperia z with 3g on att in some places.
the c6606 is supposed to be US version of the xperia z it will have the same radios as xperia zl C6506 (/showthread.php?t=2130466)
So long as you live in areas where att has the 1900 bands available you would be fine with the c6603 right?

Great, let me know which model you end up getting and how that goes. I'm going to get the HSPA+ model and used it in T-Mobile's refarmed network. Have you been using its refarmed network since it launched? I'm just worried about streaming my music from Google Music on my Z and being able to tether it to a Macbook Air.

If you are inferring that you don't get 3G with the Z then that would be incorrect. The C6602 gets HSPA+ speeds just fine on AT&T.
For some reason the ZL forums still won't show up in my subscribed listed or favorites on tapatalk.

Ok had a play with ZL and XZ in a local store..I am surprised by these things:
1. ZL is more brighter and better contrast than XZ..And no the values of calibration were set to 0 on ZL..i put up sony live wallpaper [purple] on both and ZL was visibly more brighter and vibrant!I Wonder what was sony thinking not giving its flagship that same screen? :/
2. Sound through headphones and speakers both were better on ZL..Dont know why? i can understand speakers bcoz of water proofing.
3. Easier to use due to small size and withe same size screen is a plus.
And alas i am confused :/ Dont wanna loose the build quality of XZ but want a brighter screen too!
Can someone clear this for me? The Xperia ZL has the LTE version and the none LTE version, is that correct? Also, does the factory unlocked device comes with locked or unlocked bootloader?

None if you ask me. Sony isn't really bothering with the US this year (focusing on Japan and Europe) and was never big on building phones for Verizon/Sprint.
You're better off switching to T-Mobile or AT&T and getting an unlocked one from Sony.com.

You're most likely to see the UL, as it is designed for networks transitioning from cdmaOne and friends to LTE but not yet finished.
It is now showing on online retail store, but it is C6902.
If it is in the same Z situation, LTE Z1 will be at either t-mo or at&t.

Ah, Ok. I think it's going to be T-Mobile. I believe there is a pic floating around the forums of the Z1 dressed in T-Mobile USA branding. Basicly, it will be the current EURO/UK version with T-Mobile bloat and the logo as my buddy has the UK unlocked Z1 and gets full LTE on T-Mobile with it now.
