hello...i've bought this acro s in early september...did the phone has :

#1 SCRATCH RESISTANT REALLY?because it did not! my acro s already have few scratches that have been eyesore to me when I look at the screen...OR DID SONY ALREADY TINTED THE SCREEN? IF YES CAN I REMOVE THE TINT?

#2 WET FINGER TRACKING REALLY?because I think not! when it has water on top of the screen...the phone become crazy... suddenly it do whatever itself...open app drawer itself...etc... DO I MUST SEND THIS PHONE TO CLAIM WARRANTY BECAUSE ITS HARDWARE FAILURE?

#3 CANT MAKE VIDEO RECORDING UNDERRWATER AS ITS PROMO VIDEO IN ACRO S ITSELF (refer to num 2 problem)...

1) the glass is mineral glass scratch resistant it has a film (shatter proof film) that it is NOT scratch resistant, chances are that the film it's scratched not the glass.

also, scratch resistant it is NOT scratch proof

1.) what uliwooly said

2.) how much water are we talking about? remember its just WET Tracking not SUBMERGE tracking

so you can use the screen with a little sweat or a bit of drizzle rain

3.) the trick is how to postion your phone so that the capacitive keys would not detect the water as a command.

---- start your video recording before you submerge the phone , try a variety of positions in submerging the phone, do it on angles or do it fast.

----- taking photos underwater is easy with the use of the shutter key

you can get them online, invisbleshield if the scratch it's not that bad, you can just place a scratch resistant film on top of the current film, it should hide the scratches.

check ebay, amazon or your local sony store.

enjoy, plese be reminded that if you are going to use your phone in any wet situations, make sure the phone is "cooled down" or not used moderately, as heat inside the phone can cause moisture to build up on the camera lens, if this happens just let the phone rest for awhile until the moisture subsides.
