any idea if the acro S is almost tamper-proof like the Xperia Active... am planning to upgrade from my Xperia Active some time soon and I hope the phone is also almost-weatherproof like the tiny Active...

i went to view the Xperia go and Xperia acro S recently but have yet to see anyone use it... and their screens like so easy to scratch...

I read that most of the website say the screen is made of a special scratch-resistant glass. Then why my 1 got scratches? I don't have a screen protector yet. I didn't even put it near any scratchable material e.g key..... Anyone also having this problem?

Is there any pre-installed screen protector?

Think will still need a screen protector to protect the screen. I uses one just to be safe.

The screen is not scratch-proof, only scratch-resistance. So if the scratch is hard enough the screen can still get scratched.

Only active is using the dragontrail glass. Acro s and go are using scratch resistant mineral glass with wet finger tracking.

Is the screen protector out yet. I went to a few shop they say not out yet?

BTW anyone know if I can replace the screen scatter proof layer?

this is what I suspect
as due to the water resist dust resist feature they might be cover up the ports more thgither

You have to check what is the output for the adaptor for the phone? If it is 550mah then it will be slower and for 1A to 1.5A, it should take around 2-3 hours for full charge.

I am using Xperia S with Quick Charger of 1.5A output for the adaptor so only take around 2 hours to fully charge the 1750mah battery.

if connect directly will be normal speed

just want to know who owns arco s has the same problem or not

anyone has this issue? when you are at the lock screen, then you plug in to charge your phone and then when you unlock it, it jump straight to the alarm clock setting.

anyone or is it just mine?
