I guess its the "HAYABUSA"?been going around some forums.Maybe the S3 competitor.Hope its comes out soon and not when outdated.
Nope. The Acro S is the Xperia S replacement. Xperia S will go out of production soon apparently, and Acro S will take its place.
Nonsense. Acro S is a rugged device. And X S is not.

Mate, I own the XS too and I know its rubbish that XS is being discontinued but unfortunately its true. Unknown13x said it himself that XS is going out of production soon.And the Acro S is its replacement

So a flagship phone that started selling in March may go out of production in June?
And its successor has the exact same processor/features? (save for water/dust resistance)
What sense does that make? I'm sure they can sell side by side. Samsung usually has so many variations of its flagship on sale at the same times.

There was a live session today, and some one asked about getting acro s and x s, the answer they gave did not indicate that xperia s will be stopped any time soon.

Wasn't it a similar scenario with the Arc last year, after 3 months or so after it's release it was replaced by the Arc S.
I am generally pleased with the Xperia S, so not too bothered that it's going to be replaced by the Acro S as spec wise there is hardly any difference between the two.

Is the Xperia S going down the same root as the legendary   W900??? I remember that was in production for just 6months then SE discontinued it.
As long as they support it with SW updates its fine, it will make the XS rare.

off topic but, I am not sure if x s will ever be as legendary as w900i ! That phone was like no other for years to come. I still have it boxed and kept safely, its basically the phone which made me fall in love with . It had an amazing camera , video recording with 30 fps, graphics card, one of the best speaker with actual bass, large screen.. Sigh

If it's true (rumours about S production stopping), it wouold be the biggest Sony fail ever. XS is coming to Brazil just in mid June (yeah, Brazil is ALWAYS late)

And I repeat, it's a complete nonsense.

My beautiful black W900 went to VodaCare due to WSOD, and they replaced it with a dam W880, swapped that for a Nokia N80. Miss my W900, that was what sparked my interest in CPU/GPUs and even phone OSs, before that i was just an average phone user, all i wanted was a phone and an mp3 player in one  i would probably have an iPhone now if it wasn't for the W900 and my curiosity of what made it special.
Sorry for going OT!
Anyway it makes sense to me if they stop XS production, the Acro S seems much better, and actually has a chance against HTC and Samsung's offerings.

On the other hand I just noticed the price has dropped like a stone (currently around 345 EUR) here in Sweden and is much cheaper than e.g. Xperia P. |
