Sony has announced in a press release that it has extended its partnership with cloud storage service Box to provide Xperia users with free 50GB online storage for life, provided they sign up for the service before the end of next year. To take advantage of this promotion, users only need to activate their Box account on their Xperia device and they are good to go. The only condition is that they need to do it before December 31st 2013.
While most Xperia devices that are currently available or will be released next year are supported with this offer, some devices, including the Xperia X10 mini and X10 mini pro are unsupported. Also, Xperia devices that are running firmware older than Android 2.1 do not qualify for this promotion. Sony has been offering this promotion from last year and now it has decided to extend it for one more year.
If you want free 50GB storage on Box’s cloud service then simply activate your Box account on your Xperia device.

Today, we’re excited to announce we’ve extended our partnership with Box until the end of 2013!
Announced before the 2011 festive season and initially running for a year – Xperia smartphone* and Sony tablet users can now grab free 50GB cloud storage for life, by signing-up or accessing existing Box accounts from their devices before 31st December 2013.
Box is an online file sharing and cloud content management service – it makes life that bit easier by allowing you to share and access content from anywhere, anytime.
Whether it be images, videos, apps, documents (you name it), you can store, share and access files from any of your connected devices – computer, smartphone, tablet and internet enabled TV.
Keep an eye on the newsroom over the next few weeks – we’ll be sitting down with Box to talk a little more about the service and what we can expect from them through 2013.
If you have any questions about the offer, feel free to drop them below.
*Available for Xperia smartphones including and released after Xperia X10, but not for Xperia X10 mini, X10 mini pro and devices with Android versions prior to 2.1.
