Sony Ericsson’s partnership with Billabong has been announced back in October when the handset maker released the Xperia active Billabong Edition in New Zealand.
The smartphone was exclusively available via Telecom New Zealand for prices starting at 330 USD (250 EUR). Today, both companies decided to expand their partnership to other regions as well.
Basically, this means that Sony Ericsson Xperia active Billabong Edition will be introduced in other countries starting this month.
“The first to benefit will be the athletes at our major international events who will be testing the Xperia active device in conditions as diverse as the snowfields in Austria, surfing the big waves of Tahiti and even skateboarding in Singapore,” said Scott Wallace, Billabong’s International VP of Strategic Partnerships & New Media.
