You can check out the accessories here
The arc came out here yesterday. I went to a local shop and there was a booklet titled 'Xperia arc 400 Accessories'
There is an absolute shed load of covers, cases, and replacement battery covers, along with chargers, and kits for cars and bicycles. There are a lot of lenses for the camera too, plus lots of screen covers.
i am hoping for an official extended battery (with back cover to match) that will double the battery capacity to 3000mAh minimum and become as thick as the x10.. one of the biggest perks to owning a smartphone is you can't go a day of heavy use without fear of your battery dying. i get paranoid when the battery reaches < 30%.
That's not a perk! A perk is something good.

lol I spotted that, but let it slide
Oooh, I'd love to have some lenses for the camera Can't find any on the internet, tho.
Anyone with better luck?
No specific accessories for the new flagship yet? Bummer, a dock or official extended battery would have been great.
Go to Amazon jp seach for x12, some cases looks good!

Why xperia arc is renamed to "Xperia x12" or "LT15" in several states?

I agree. A dock would be wicked. I dont think it will happen though. Look at where the usb port n 3.5mm jack is on the play. That was designed with a dock in mind.

I didn't find the complete book to download, but this page had some pics:

and I googled the product code you can see on one of the pages and it seems like some of the stuff you mention is made by Princeton:

Hi, anyone used a waterproof casing for the Arc S? Off skiing in Jan and want to take my phone, but don't want to get it wet.
I was looking at the Kursell SealABox, but it looks like a general purpose case, so not sure how usable the phone is inside it.
Looking for someone that's got xperience of this.
Thanks.
definitely I should get one for me.. but maybe its too late, after I dropped it into the toilet haha, shame :C
if you can probably wait a little more, i've heard zagg is commin up with a spray on waterproofing thing they call HzO... *not meant to advertise...

im still waiting for mine to ship over

Xperia Blog reported an Elecom waterproof case for the arc long back. I'm guessing it should be out by now.
http://www.xperiablog.net/2011/06/28/elecom-set-to-release-waterproof-case-for-the-xperia-arc/
I've used Aquapac cases for years and never had a leak.. Spent a whole summer swimming with my x10mini in one.. Phone stays fully functional, optical plastic so photos come out good and touch screen works through the plastic. Sound wasn't affected too much either so I could still take calls.. However I recommend a good bt headset for skiing.. Nothing like music while you ski.

I got a few of these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/SAMSUNG-GALAXY-S2-S-II-I9100-ZENIS-DESKTOP-DOCK-CHARGER-CRADLE-/220883609072?_trksid=p4340.m185&_trkparms=algo%3DSIC.NPJS%26its%3DI%252BC%26itu%3DUA%26otn%3D5%26pmod%3D270865448058%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5859734319996833550
and they have worked with all my Samsung Android phones WITH "thinner" type cases. When I put the Diztronics case on the GNex it didn't fit by a hair so I took a Dremel tool and ground down the front edge just a little. It looks a LOT worse in the picture (since it is close up and due to the lighting) then it does on my desk but it could also be done a lot neater. I kind of slipped with the Dremel. For the price, these docks can't be beat. They only make them in 1 size yet they advertise them as if they are different (and jack up the prices depending on the phone). There is NO audio or video out, it's simply a charge/sync/nightstand cradle.
Today I broke down and ordered the "RND Power Solutions Deluxe 2nd Battery Charger and Data Sync Cradle" from amazon.com (too new to post a link, just give it a search).
This may be what you are looking for, because it is described as having an insert you can put in/remove depending on the case you are using.
I should have this guy in-hand Friday and I can give you a more detailed review.

Someone just posted a review of the RND Power Solutions dock in this forum.

Looks like his LTE phone with a thin case was a tight fit, so this may not be what you are looking for :-(

Not sure you´r correct, since they are saying in the reviews, that the sparepart charger doesn´t fit their type of battery, but its ment for the GSM version. .
So IMO this one on Amazon is for the GSM-version, but still wil work for the LTE versions phones, but not the spare battery they may want to charge..
That looks to be the same as the KiDiGi one listed on the Mobi site except the Amazon price is a lot less expensive. However on the Mobi site it is listed as a GSM (i9250) version.
I've been tempted as they also have a car dock with the same form factor but I'm really looking for something that looks decent but allows me to leave my Qmadix case on the phone.

I finally got the charging dock from 4u-mobi and can confirm that the GSM model with a casemate barely there case will fit..
I also got a s-curve TPU case, that fit this dock as well....
In both combinations you need to take off the insert
what about the clingo desktop stand. i;ve been looking at getting a universal desktop dock so that i can use it with a case and future phones.

I just ended up getting the gogostand and taping it to my desk. Works flawless. Yes it doesnt charge, but I couldnt find anything that I liked without having to remove my case each time. And I wasnt going to do that.
Hello everyone, I like running a lot and usually have my phone with me for listening to music and GPS tracking with Sports Tracker App.
I am looking for an armband that will fit the Arc so I can have it with me now that due to the summer coming will be wearing t-shirts mostly when running. (Until now I usd to carry it in my jacket's pocket.)
The armband should let the 3.5mm jack open so I can plug in my headphones.
Can you suggest one?
Thank you.
I'm looking for the same acc
tried to modified for iphone 4 but no luck
why not make your own
I know this might be tacky, but why not make you own; from an old sock.
If you have an old sock, with a long top part (the one that extends to the calf), you may cut it at the ankle, fold it inwards half-way. Stitch from the fold up to the edge (two rows wide apart to fit the phone in the middle), and voila! :good:
Wear the "armband" up your arm (with folded side to the bottom). Insert you phone inside the pocket created with the stitching.

Guys,
For Xperia M Dual C2004, any recommendations i.e links which you can provide based on personal purchase good customer experience regarding quality, durability and price for External Cases, Covers and Screen guards as I looked around in Mumbai and find most of them are cheap quality and highly overpriced. I mean for Case & Screen guard itself price was coming to Rs.1,400 in a reputed store like UniverCell.
Links will be appreciated. Cheers!

Thanks, the first link mentions compatible with Xperia M & its approx Rs.265/- and the 2nd one is ruled out as it's for Xperia L.

My personal experience, I am using the cheap plastic flip cover one. You can easily get one of those with no shipping charge in your locality.
However based on my research, which I did before buying mine, I have compiled some LINKS which unfortunately I can't post here. Because I am new here and don't have 10 posts.
However I've attached a .txt file with all my choices. Hope they can be of some use to you.
Xperia M back cover
Guys you can get xperia M colorful back cover in local market for 100 INR. Well I live in delhi and here you can get these covers for 100 to max 150. You can find street vendor selling these back cover in CP. Kamla nagar Market and Palika bazar. I got a good quality screen guard from palika bazar for 100 INR (well initially the shopkeeper was saying 150 but then he agreed on 100:victory
Finally purchased Capdase Karapace Jacket for Rs.799/- from Chroma, bloody not a single rupee discount. Case looks elegant and totally recommend. Is durable, fits well and best is comes with a reasonably good screen guard.

Ordered some replacements parts for an Xperia Z1, they also have Xperia M parts : http://www.witrigs.com/sony-xperia-m-replacement-partshttp://. Quality is good.
Looks like a new version of the Magnector adapter is out. This one seems to have fixed some of the problems with the original (case clearance) and also comes with a LED charging indicator.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00Q3GK3YI/ref=pe_385040_127541850_TE_item
Still a little expensive but these adapters charge better/faster than the cheap ones.
I ordered two this friday, estimated delivery time:*within*one week.
Interesting. I hope this one actually stays on when you move it up or down slightly.

Looks better than the original with decent clearance for cases and a similar curved profile to the cable version (the X2 cable version stays on very well)

Hi there, I´m in buying process right now for the Z3c and while I´m waiting for it, I´m searching for extra accessories . What I´m interested in is that kind of case you have. It seams like a nice one but I´d like to know does it make phone much thicker? Is it noticeable at the first look, what is your feeling?

Hi, the ringke fusion case is probably the best of a bad lot, it's a tight fit, not to "chunky" and protects the phone around the edges and back ( still needs a tempered glass screen protector). Imo... My case mate tough naked is a much better fit, offering more protection and a lot better looking.... Only downside is no cutout for magnetic charging! I'd advise looking at the dedicated "z3c case thread" on here tho for a more in depth review .
Cheers ?
Cruzerlite bugdroid circuit is the best case for me because only magnetic port is open. I've tried many. Ringke is fairly good in the bunch. Ringke is really flimsy on it's left side where ports are.
