The Xperia™ Contacts application
With the Xperia™ Contacts application users can view contacts from 
multiple accounts all in one place, or they can choose to filter contacts 
by account. Contacts managed in the Xperia™ Contacts application are 
available in other applications across an Xperia™ device, for example, in 
most communications.
If your business uses Microsoft
®
 Exchange ActiveSync
®
, the support for 
the Global Address List (GAL) provides comprehensive searchability for 
contacts in your enterprise address list. Also when searching contacts 
in other accounts, or locally in the device, you can take advantage of the 
smart search feature in the Xperia™ Contacts application, called Smart 
Dial. With Smart Dial you enter letters or numbers that correspond to the 
contact you want to call, and as you enter each letter or number, a list of 
possible matches appears. The Contacts application supports the vCard 
format (*.vcf), which makes it possible to import and export contact files 
and to exchange vCards with other devices.
Local synchronisation
Small- and medium-sized companies that don’t want to rely on Microsoft
®
 
Exchange ActiveSync
®
 or MDM solutions for synchronisation and remote 
storage of information can take advantage of the free-of-charge software 
from Sony Mobile made for Microsoft
®
 Windows
®
 computers.
In addition to being cost-effective, Xperia™ users can use the tool 
made for Microsoft
®
 Windows
®
 to synchronise their device contacts and 
calendars directly with computers or local servers. There is no need to 
create accounts or to involve the Internet. Microsoft
®
 Windows
®
 and Mac 
OS
®
 users alike can back up and restore data locally using the same tools.
Local Sync with the help from PC 
Companion enables the following use 
cases:
•  Synchronisation with Outlook for 
Enterprise, without using an EAS 
solution or any Google™ Services
•  Synchronisation with Lotus Notes for 
Enterprise
•  Synchronisation with other counter 
parts (Windows Contacts etc.)
•  Handling (adding, editing, modifying) of 
PIM data via a computer
•  Migration of PIM data from old to new 
phone
