No, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Acro is no typo as one might have thought (considering there is the Xperia Arc to think about), as we now know that it is meant for the Japanese market. The Xperia Acro will lack a Xenon flash, but that’s a small price to pay since its disappearance would mean replacing it with a TV tuner within, allowing you to enjoy your favorite TV show even when you’re out of the home and nowhere near a TV – subject to signal availability, of course. Apart from that, there is also an NFC chip within which shouldn’t leave anyone surprised considering how NFC technology is commonplace in Japan. Those who are interested will also notice that the Xperia Acro will also sport an infrared sensor and Sony’s very own 8-megapixel Exmor camera sensor. No idea on pricing though, but those are quite decent specifications for a phone that has been around for a while already.
