Sony
Project Overview
Sony needed a display to showcase its new waterproof mobile phone, the Xperia. Specifically, they desired an interactive display that would allow consumers to actually “dunk” or submerge the phone into water so they could see for themselves that the phone is indeed waterproof. Sunbelt Displays designed and produced a display that fit Sony’s price range while accomplishing their desired effect. Additionally, Sunbelt designed the packaging and handled the fulfillment to more than 1000+ T-Mobile stores nationwide. The displays were successful enough to merit a repeat order to reach more markets.
