Xperia Active is being sold for INR 19,900, which some of would say is a little steep. It features a 3 inch scratch resistant display, Android 2.3, 1GHz processor, 5MP camera, and front VGA cam. It is also dust and water proof and it being targeted to sports/fitness enthusiasts.
Active comes pre-loaded with fitness apps, along with built-in GPS, Barometer and Compass. It can -screen heart rate and pulse thanks to the ANT+ wireless networking technology.

Not worth of the price!
everything seems ok,except for miniscule screen,very difficult to use virtual qwerty keypad……………..
Bakwaas..why don’t they understand. 3 inch screen size, 20,000 mein.. Nahi chahiye
Maybe u dont , no one’s asking u to buy it , thers neo V @17.5 with same hardware and walkman with 3.2 inch screen .
go buy those stop talking like ther forcing this down ur throats .
+ phone comes with free liveview which alone is worth 3 odd k
gud 1 sid
@sid: neo V has 3.7″ touch! get your facts right before writing anything.
@yo!
Sid did get his facts right. He is talking about 2 phones : Neo V @ 17.5k and Walkman (Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman – comes with 3.2″ screen) for a cheaper price…
Read properly before jumping onto conclusions…
@nikhil: Exactly, Neo V doesn’t have any competition with this phone. It’s got same hardware, yet a different screen!
I like all the facts in active even the price but its not worth to have 1200 mAh battery, i think samsung s also doing rugged phone named xcover lets wait to see wat it did…
@Nitink This is a rugged phone, its top feature is not the screen, but the durability in the outdoors and the ANT+ compatibility. I would buy it only for that.
If you like to explore the phone more, this is a nice blog: xperia-active.com
if im not wrong ant+ is being implemented in CM7 for all xperia models once its done , everyphone should be able to do what xperia active does. 😀
@Yo u should read before , jumping to conclusions.
Airtel and Vodafone are lhcnuaing it here without any contract-based plans. That means, you dont have to stick with the same plan for 2~3 years. Thats how the biggies sell it for a reduced price in US. They can makeup the loss of discount with a 2 or 3 year contract.
