compact and durable package

5mm the device is bordering on chunky
Sony Ericsson did not skimp on the in-box accessories either
the waterproof cover's cameras glas is not clear
doesn't have to be all muscle and no charm
5 mm definitely is a little chunky
aggressive noise reduction algorithm
The display fended off our attack with pointed objects
the strap a tad loose for our arms
The Bad Screen is small at 3 inches
you may not have access to a power point
Battery life is a little disappointing
often lack colour and can seem a little dim
slightly obnoxious orange plastic
it does not support wireless charging
Sony Ericsson Xperia active have fast charging

Sony Ericsson are looking to tap into the market where
The audio seemed a bit muffled at times and when it was windy
lack of call quality and audio output
The keyboard is a bit tricky on a device
the front sports only three buttons instead of the usual four button layout
Will be too small and too bulky for many
performance rapidly degrades in low light
1GHz Snapdragon chip is no longer cutting edge
Paltry internal storage and tiny SD card
not waterproof (only have caps on usb)
s logo is splashed across two of the bundled battery covers
feature - rugged smartphones have literally been riding the wave
