Is Xperia Active worth Buy?

A

Hey guyz, thanx every1, that i got my Xperia Sola, now using this month's salary, i wanna gift my bro a rugged smartphn, like me, he hasn't got stuck on dual cores and can survive on a single core too, i have the Xperia Active in mind for him, as he is a Bunjee Jump trainer.

Please don'd suggest the Samsung Xcover, as due to the mediocre 800mhz processing unit, its not gonna get the ICS Update,

Active is rugged but i doubt it'll survive a drop of several hundred feet. Moreover active is a bit small. 3" is small. Wait for Active's successor.

If possible wait for xperia go. Or you can go for defy xt if want a rugged phone only

guyz sorry, forgot to mention b4, I HATE Motorola, they used to make nice handsets at some time, but now, the company's documents tell us that the condom factory was really responsible for this one.

A bungee jumper ? Hmmm since Nokia 1100 is discontinued, go with Nokia 101

I really like the model so will just say yes

i think he wants a ****ING android!!!

Active is quite a rugged phone but no phone is made to survive from a fall of many feets.

Just because that's his profession doesn't mean he'll carry it around while bungee jumping , get him a Sola if you're satisfied with it , or if single core will suffice , get the HTC Explorer / Sony Live With Walkman as per your budget. If rugged is really required go for Moto Defy+ , it's camera and screen are not so good but still a good phone.

Sola, has a scratch resistant screen, and that would break too easily, i m not saying he's gonna throw the damn phone from a thousand feet, but he is an adventure loving person and I think he deserves a IP67 certified phone, u got any others ('droids) xcept that Defy+ please suggest

Wait for the Xperia Go as mentioned before. Its perfect for him and is future proof as well.

But you should have gone with the Go. It has been available in stock across India since a few days. Anyway not a bad decision though.
