Sony’s Xperia XZ2 Premium now has a price and release date, and as expected, the upgraded version of the already $800 XZ2 won’t be cheap: it’ll cost $999.99 unlocked when it ships on July 30th.

Preorders in the United States for the XZ2 Premium will be available at Amazon and Best starting on July 9th, but Amazon preorders will be sweetening the deal by offering a free pair of Xperia Ear Duo wireless headphones, which seems to make it the better option over Best Buy (unless you hate free stuff).

The XZ2 Premium offers a 5.8-inch 4K HDR display, dual rear cameras (a 19-megapixel color sensor and a 12-megapixel monochrome one) which offer a maximum ISO of 51,200, 6GB of RAM, a 3,540mAh battery, and a Snapdragon 845 processor. There’s still no headphone jack, though.
