Smart and rugged are the two words that define the Sony Ericsson Xperia Active, although these are the words that do not match with each other especially when you're talking about mobile phones. There was a time when even a light or moderate clash with the ground would pretty well destroy the majority of smartphones out there. This gave rise to the birth of rugged phone market. However, both the smartphones and rugged phones keep their distance in terms of their appearance and design but the game was changed with the release of Motorola DEFY that paved the rugged-smart way and since then the smartphone market is now onto its next wave of rugged-smartphones with the DEFY's replacement, the Samsung Galaxy Xcover and the Sony Ericsson Xperia active all competing for a position in your fast-moving lifestyle.
Sony Ericsson Xperia Active is a cute little phone that comes with a rugged water resistance, dust proofing and pre-installed fitness apps together with its smart 1GHz processor, Android 2.3 and optimized user interface. Furthermore, the handset is shipped with the set of accessories that make you get a great deal out of the box.
