Here's the sleek, waterproof and affordable Sony Xperia M4 Aqua (pictures)

The Sony Xperia M4 Aqua is a mid-range Android phone, but one that takes its design cues -- as well as its scuba skills -- from its pricier flagship brother.

Its 5-inch screen has a 720p resolution, it has a 13-megapixel rear camera, the latest Android 5.0 Lollipop software and will start at around 299 euros (around £220, $335 or AU$435). It's due to hit shelves globally sometime in the next few months.

With a glass front and back and rounded edges, the M4 Aqua looks remarkably like the flagship Xperia Z3.

It's completely waterproof too.

With the latest Android 5.0 Lollipop software on board, you can access this little Flappy Bird-style mini game.

It's not the slimmest phone ever, but you'd have to be in a seriously bad mood to call it fat.

There's a 13-megapixel camera on the back with a 5-megapixel camera on the front for those awesome selfies.

As well as black, the M4 Aqua will come in red and white.

Sony has slapped the same user interface onto the M4 that you'll find on most of its recent Xperia phones.

Sony has made the Micro-USB charging point waterproof, meaning it doesn't need to be covered with an annoying rubberised flap to keep the water out.
