Sony Xperia acro S - user opinions and reviews
- bob
- s3B
Downsides of this phone are:
-overheating (powerful processors but "only" dual core and water protective housing)
-usb connection jack and headphone jack are bellow water protection covers so in day-to-day use it requires a lot of patience.
-the android punishment (this phone goes with ICS). mark my words: by the December we will have another sweet thing on our hands v 5.0.1234 (maybe baklava or Schwartzvald schnite). newer and newer os versions will put out of the game a phone like this in two years.

the acro s camera is a superb camera .. in my opinion the lighting on acro s is better than iphone 5 and xperia s... overall I would rate the phone 9/10 and camera 9.5/10

M.I.K., 17 Feb 2013One thing i found incorrect up here is Sim Type - Mini Sim.
It does not require mini sim it... moreu should learn more about sim size,
it comes with mini-sim support. what you think of regular/typical sim is mini-sim actually.. the smaller ones are micro-sim and nano-sim.
the normal/full-sized sim is about a credit card in size (or the size of sim card in stater pack before you cut the mini-sim off for your phone)
motorola startac, for example, and any early 90's phones used it.

Review after 1 month use it. I buy Xperia Acro S for my wife. I am still using old samsung y pro (with keyboard).
Pro :
Daily use is good. Last week my wife and me have some little fight. She trow his Xperia Acro S hardly but not break it or leaving a single scratch. Very durable.
ICS is smooth. No lag. No hang etc. Movies qualities superb. Very like the Sony browser, it fast and smooth even for many tabs. I like to play real racing HD 2 by EA Games. Graphic is good but sometimes lag but not so obvious. Still playable.
Camera is good and we like Sony Album behavior. It is cool. Capturing video are surprising very good.
Cons :
Stock earphone quality is bad. No megabass? I dont mind if speaker not so good due to resist dust and water. In fact it is still good to watch movies and gaming.
Battery. In heavy use it is drain quickly. While standby with some mild msg and call can hold almost 2 days. Charging is slow. Really slow. Screen set to medium.
Size. Bold but comfort in hand.
Final.
Performance + display + travel.
Worth for money since water and dust resistant is matter for me.

hi all,
yes this mobile rocks. it has every thing that you need in a good smart phone. you all will like it once you experianced it. its an awesome mobile. trust me it works well. But the sucking part it the battery life and also non removeble battery. i dont know why sony team disgned this as non removeble battery mobile. other that that its a super mobile

One thing i found incorrect up here is Sim Type - Mini Sim.
It does not require mini sim it takes a regular sim, however it comes with a micro sim adapter which you can use to insert your mini sim.
I have this phone and I'm proud of it...

hi fellow xperia users (and some who aren't)...
i just bought my Brand New SONY Xperia Acro S ('coz the Xperia S was out of stock, and at 40% off, i might add)... and guess what?
i loved it...
I had a choice of either black or white. the black one has a sort of rubber finish feel at the back and the white one's plain matte plastic, and i got the white one ('coz i feel it'd look better and feel better, clearly a preference, and btw, they also have a pink one).
i like the fact that it has a dock, better than those who don't include one... oh, and the NFC tags as well, extending the experience of the mobile/wireless world. HDMI's supported but the cable's not included (it's no big deal, really).
when i first used the interface, i was overjoyed...
i tried all that i can try, camera was superb (they taught me how to use it for optimum experience), video recording was good, sound and music on my existing headset was great, though loudspeaker's so-so, screen was brilliant (thumbs up for BRAVIA), touch experience was smooth and lagging only occured a few swipes after power-on, browsing was fast and easy (and they even installed the latest flash player for me right then and there), the pre-installed videos were extraordinary (and so were the ones i threw at it), calls were loud and clear (but still would depend on the network carrier), typing was fast and easy (specially on landscape mode), games played smoothly (they installed and let me try tekken, plus of course those that i downloaded from the play store-subway surf, temple run 1 and 2, fruit ninja, angry birds, you name it).
i was a happy customer...
after 2 days, i must say battery's no issue for me (they helped me install .55 as they recommended, my phone lasted 2.5 days with moderate usage), heating was normal (a degree higher than body temperature).
i haven't tried water resistivity though, but i'll get to that soon...
i must say that going back to Sony, after a few years with my Nokia E72, was worth it...
i highly recommend the Acro S, it's an excellent choice of a smartphone (though i would have preferred the transparent strip of the Xperia S over IP certification)... Hooray for Sony Xperias...
