Why dont they sell their smartphones in the biggest market in the world? It's a shame how it turned out, Sony revolutionized the placement of the power button with the Xperia Z, now every phone has the power button on the upper left or right side where it's easily reached with a finger using 1 hand.

They have easily the best designs and UI in the Android market

Just slick like Apple.

They do sell in the US; it just happens to be Unlocked for the lot of them. Sure, you aren't getting phones designed for that network, but you're able to buy them outright and switch between AT&T and T-Mobile whenever you want.

They aren't offered by the main four carriers themselves though and they straight up don't work on Verizon at all. You have to pay full retail MSRP in the US and very few stores offer them online, let alone at retail aside from Best Buy, Sony themselves or Amazon. Picking up a Sony smart phone in the US requires extra hurdles when someone could easily pay less than half the price up front for an iPhone 7 or Samsung Galaxy S8. 

 

As a Verizon subscriber, if there were a way for me, I'd get one to see what it's like.
