22 June 2011, Singapore - Sony Ericsson today announced Xperia(TM) active, a
compact smartphone targeting consumers with an active lifestyle, in conjunction
with CommunicAsia 2011 in Singapore. With a 3" screen and running the latest
Android platform for smartphones (Gingerbread 2.3), the phone packs Reality
Display with Mobile BRAVIA® Engine, a 5mp camera with HD video functionality,
and a powerful 1Ghz processor. Xperia(TM) active is dust proof and water
resistant* and uniquely incorporates wet finger tracking, to ensure the phone
works perfectly when either the screen or a user's fingers are wet.
The phone comes pre-loaded with sports apps that enable consumers to easily
track their fitness levels. Users can set their ideal training route using the
built-in GPS, Barometer and Compass. On-screen heart rate and pulse can be
monitored in realtime (enabled by ANT+ wireless networking technology), while
the iMapMyFitness app can monitor day to day performance. Additionally,
Facebook inside Xperia(TM) allows consumers to share their progress and
experiences with friends.
Fredrik Månsson, Global Product Marketing Manager, Sony Ericsson said:
"Xperia(TM) active is the ultimate smartphone for an active life. Not only is it
packed with all the features and applications consumers need for a worry free
mobile life, it also comes with a set of accessories that make it fun and easy
for them to take it everywhere, whatever their daily plans are."
Maria Sharapova, a three time grand slam winning tennis player added: "I love
this smartphone because it perfectly fits both my professional and personal
needs. It keeps me in touch with my friends as I travel the world on the pro
tour and tracks my fitness both on and off the court."
Extras included in the box to further build the consumer experience:
* One extra exchangeable soft touch back cover
* Detachable ear hooks for the portable handsfree active headset
* Wrist strap to keep the phone close at all times
* An arm case for use during a workout
* 2GB memory card to save all your special moments
