Mobile phone users in the UK interested in the purchase of an unlocked flavor of the new Sony Xperia SP handset will have to wait a bit longer before being able to get one, online retailer Clove UK has announced.

The smartphone is now expected to be in stock at the retailer starting with May 11, although it was previously said to arrive on shelves in the country on April 30, a recent blog post explains.

The smartphone has already been put up for sale in the country at wireless carriers Orange and T-Mobile, yet those who would like to grab it unlocked and SIM-free will have to wait until late next week to purchase it.

At Clove, Xperia SP will be available for purchase in Black and White flavors, with a price tag of £300 ($466 / 354 Euro) attached to it, as can be seen on this page.
