The Sony Xperia M2 Aqua was officially announced by Sony yesterday. Though it was leaked months ago, its nice to finally see the product materialize and be released this Fall. While designed as a mid-range Android smartphone, the Xperia M2 Aqua still packs quite a punch with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 1.2 GHz quad core processor with 1GB RAM and offers plenty to see with its 4.8-inch (540×960) display. So what else can we expect from this waterproof phone that’s capable of staying submerged in depths of 1.5 meters for up to half an hour?

I should point out that I realize how large the above promo picture for the M2 Aqua is but it’s just such a cool shot that needed to be displayed in all of its glory. After the jump, we have the Sony Xperia M2 Aqua specs.
