Looking for a phablet with a gigantic screen, a water-resistant body, and the latest version of stock Android? Well, if you’re in the US, you might want to take a look at the Google Play edition of the Sony Xperia Z Ultra, which has received a substantial $200 price cut that brings its retail price down to $449.

That is a pretty good price for the biggest Nexus-like smartphone on the market, one that will get you a huge 6.4-inch 1080p display that can be operated with a pen or pencil, plenty of horsepower with a Snapdragon 800 CPU and 2GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel camera (without flash, sadly), a long-lasting 3,000 mAh battery, LTE connectivity on AT&T and T-Mobile, IP58-certified water- and dust-resistance, and Android 4.4.2 KitKat without any manufacturer skin or features ruining the experience.

Free shipping is included as well, which further sweetens an already great deal. Go ahead and order one for yourself from the Play Store if you’re interested.
