Today the Xperia Neo was launched via several sites for the UK. As we all know, it was delayed until June, but noone really had a date set for the release.
Prices start from a pretty reasonable £329.99 (Play.com), or to the original starting price of £369.99 (se-store, who still have the phone listed as pre-order, though we hope they will update this soon). As for those who would prefer to buy their phone from a counter, rather than a website, I popped into Phones4U (Winchester branch) yesterday and they hadn’t heard of the Xperia Neo, and I was greeted with pretty much the same response from the Carphone Warehouse (Eastleigh branch), but Carphone Warehouse did admit that their store doesn’t get informed of what phones are coming out their way until they have arrived.

Check out our latest video, where Marcus shows the new Xperia™ active. It supports ANT+ wireless technology for connecting sport and fitness equipment, and it is classed as IP67, which means that it can be under 1 meter (3 feet) of water for 30 minutes. A truly unique feature of the Xperia™ active lies in its pressure sensor for barometric measuring. As a developer, you can use this sensor in applications, which can be accessed through the Android sensor API.
Stay tuned to Developer World for more information about the pressure sensor in Xperia™ active going forward!
