For a limited time, Carphone Warehouse have an exclusive contract with Vodafone for the Xperia S. Instead of the usual £26 a month tariff to get the Sony Xperia S free, from now until May 24th, the handset is available for free on Vodafone’s £20.50 a month tariff.

The deal is available through Carphone Warehouse online or in store. The contract is with Vodafone for 24 months and your £20.50 a month gives you 100 Minutes, 500 texts and 250MB of data. Which while it isn’t a huge allowance any any front, if you’re a light user and Vodafone is your preferential network, this is a great deal.

As well as being available from The Home Network Group, the Xperia X8 is also available from Tesco in the UK. The price at Tesco for the handset comes in at £129.97, making it only 97p more than Woolworths. Tesco also have the handset in stock, where as Woolworths and the other retailers in the Home Network Group quote a delivery time of 7 days. An added bonus with ordering from Tesco, is that if you purchase the handset online from Tesco before October 12th you can receive an extra 500 Tesco club points with the code “TDX-AWCK”.
