Smart, sleek and durable

Ups, downs and sudden showers. We’ve designed Xperia™ go to handle everything life dishes out. We gave it a scratch-resistant display, a battery-save mode for when you’re running late and made sure it had the highest water and dust resistance of any smartphone. As a final trick, we put all this toughness in an elegant costume. At just 9.8 mm, you’d never guess that slim Xperia™ go is a giant on durability.

Finally, a smartphone that’s as stylish as it is strong.

Strong enough for life’s little problems

For something that’s such a vital part of life, most smartphones can’t handle life’s little bumps. Now there’s an Android smartphone you never have to worry about. Xperia go is a dust-proof, water-resistant phone. Sure, you can take it on a hike through the rainforest. But it’s made for less dramatic challenges. Like a drop into the flour while you’re baking, a “surprise” dive into the fishbowl and whatever else daily life has in store.

I've bought Sony Xperia Go Yellow (but not the Yellow Sports Edition version which includes a wrist strap) for my wife after her Sony Xperia X8 was stolen. Later, we've bought a black phone cover/case for it that comes free with a screen protector. Now, it looks like a Yellow Bumblebee! It is recently updated to the latest firmware 6.0.B.3.184 over-the-air even though I've checked the PTRCB website to reveal the latest certified firmware for ST27i (certified but it is not released yet for update):

My incomplete review about it:

So far, I've tested it to play some videos from our DLNA server but it only plays up to 720p ones. It doesn't play 1080p videos even with third-party players available on Google Play. The videos are very clear and smooth.

I've installed avast! Mobile Security app and turn on its Anti-Theft feature this time (forgot to turn the feature on the stolen one). It can be controlled from my my.avast.com account: it is quite an interesting feature!

Game-wise: I've installed Dead Trigger (which is now free-to-play) and it is smooth.

Its GPS chipset is quite slow to acquire a GPS position in cold-start (it is not so sensitive when going inside a building unlike Xperia X8 even though it manages to see more than 10 satellites in view but it fails to get a fix immediately; maybe due to its low-noise filtering quality) but it is functional anyway when it does tracking.

Sometimes, I do notice no connection signal notification coming from it but it seldom happens. In most cases, it works fine and we even use Skype for video calling (it is quite cumbersome due to no front-facing cam; usually we do it via Wifi-N rather than telco network).
