bought this for 12,100 last may,. suited my lifestyle because I'm a swimming instructor.. tried diving and taking pictures with it underwater and it's amazing! i tried lone diving with it for 2 meters at least.. THE BEST thing about it is that it has a button dedicated for taking pictures unlike it's newly born brother XPERIA GO. you can't take pictures underwater with the XPERIA go because of the absence of the camera button! the next big thing is XPERIA acro S(also has camera button) but the price is just to high compared to XPERIA active.. I already upgraded my phone to ICS and It feels nice.. be nice to the phone and it'll be nice to you too.. just keep on killing the running apps to avoid lags..
