Sony Xperia Acro S review

Only one word. Amazing
This phone has a really clear display. the bravia engine really helps.the graphics are clear, smooth, and very fluid even before I have the jelly bean update. The phone works very fast. Never faced  any problems with hanging or jerky operation.  The phone  is waterproof which is a clear advantage. I poured water on it as soon as I opened the box. I just couldn't believe my eyes. The dock that comes with it is a real charm. Just push the phone in it and forget all about opening the waterproof seals to connect the charger and charging it.
One of the problems that I face is that the battery backup is less. On a full charge the battery reaches 25% by the time I return home from work on a 2g network. Or 10% on 3g network. The speakers and loudspeaker is quite clear. The proximity sensor placement sometimes creates problems When I put the phone to my ear and move it around a bit, the screen comes on.
The 12MP shooter is great, But I took some time to set it up for getting good images. There are a million setting in the camera application and the default settings  doesn't do justice to it. Low light pictures are very grainy. Maybe tweaking the settings could help.
Overall, considering the price and the features, this is one amazing phone. If It's available in your country,  BUY IT...
