Johannesburg - Sony Ericsson on Wednesday announced details of a new promotion that will give every Xperia owner 50GB of free file sharing and storage in partnership with Box.

By simply logging into their Box account through the Box for Android application in the Android Marketplace, Xperia owners globally will be able to enjoy free cloud storage and file sharing for life.

The Box promotion begins December 15, 2011 through until December 31, 2012, and is available to all consumers worldwide who own any Xperia smartphone including and released after Xperia X10.

“With people taking more pictures, listening to more music and watching more video on their Xperia smartphone than ever before, especially over the holidays, we wanted to make sure that they had the ability to upload their content to the cloud and share it across multiple devices.. Xperia and Box will provide consumers with access to a massive amount of content on the go putting their smartphone at the very heart of their connected lifestyle,” commented Colin Williamson, marketing manager at Sony Ericsson South Africa.

“As more people bring their personal devices in to work to take full advantage of mobile computing, it is essential that they never have to worry about storage limitations,” said Aaron Levie, co-founder and CEO of Box.

“By partnering with Sony Ericsson we are bringing the full power of Box’s cloud content management and sharing to those users.”

With file sharing and storage from Box, Xperia users are able to access their content from anywhere across multiple devices and applications with extreme ease.
