The youtube video of the phone hitting the nail into the timber amazed me...until I saw the one with the car running over the phone...my God, this phone is not only waterproof, it's practically indestructable!

i can't believe this phone is still $600 USD now that the XV is out..

I was looking at it as a possible "cheap" option to use while I wait for the 2013 line, but damn! that aint cheap!

I hope the price drops soon ... if it drops to around $400 like the Xperia S, i'm all over it!!!

Arco S in US comes out with Jellybean?

Do we have any screenshots of Sony Jellybean UI or it's the same as Ice Cream Sandwich?

That's a typo IndianDawg, no Jellybean yet on any Sony device.

I am contemplating getting this phone, but I have a few questions.

1. Is the display bright? I read it's a bit dim... =(
2. How is the sound quality, in terms of music through headphones?
3. I read it heats up... Is it as bad as on Arc (S)?

So I got the Acro S, and I pretty much love it, except for one major thing.
It gets hot very fast, even doing things that shouldn't be very hard on the phone, such as viewing videos.

I THINK this is due to low RAM. I checked a few times, and it usually shows only 10-25mb free, out of 635mb available. This, however, doesn't make much sense, unless there are a LOT of apps running without showing...

Anyone else have this sort of problem?

I had the same issue with my Arc S. Downgraded to Gingerbread and it all works charm!

Acro S doesn't have a GB-version, though. =P

I just don't understand what is using ALL that ram. Which also means the phone keeps "crashing" on itself.

Haha my bad. But really Sony ICS is not that great compared to Sony GB

So... after a month;

1. It gets VERY hot around the home-button, and fast.
2. Once it wouldn't turn on, and got stuck on "Xperia", then the entire thing got warm (one time thing though)
3. I've noticed that the bottom part of the display has a yellowish hue to it. It's generally not that noticable, but when it is, it's irritating as hell. Example, whatsapp; When I open it to write a message, the message-space seems almost completely yellow. When I touch it and it bounces up for the keypad, that space turns white.
- This one is particularly annoying, and I have no idea if it's due to the heat and leaking glue (like the S), or if it's just bad positioning of the light, like on the X10. My Arc S got hot just by looking at it, but no yellowish hue anywhere, ever
4. The camera is sort of slow, and the focus not so good.

Anyone else?

Some of those symptons sound similar to what the Xperia S had in it's early days.
