The Sony Xperia M4 Aqua is a mid-range Android smartphone developed and manufactured by Sony. The phone was unveiled along with Xperia Z4 Tablet in the press conference held by Sony during the 2015 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, on March 2.[1] Five months later, a successor Xperia M5 was announced.[2][3] However, the M4 Aqua's production is still ongoing and is marketed in a lower range than the M5.[citation needed]

The key feature of the phone is having a waterproof and dustproof resistance of an IP rating of IP65 and IP68. It is Sony's first smartphone to feature an octa-core processor[1] and also Sony's first water-resistant smartphone to feature an exposed micro USB port (cap-less microUSB charging).[4]
