        I just picked up a Sony Experia ARC S and the box had ICS and checked out was installed ICS 4.0. So I am sorry GSMarena, the L Neo series is not the first to have ICS.

              Its looks really good, considering it is a "Mid-range" device, and it looks like a step up from Neo V, look at Samsung Galaxy Ace to Samsung galaxy Ace 2 or Ace plus, only minor upgrades like this.

                  TDMaster, 20 Mar 2012Please Sony stop with the Single Core CPU it Sucks!!! move... moreyou mentioned on the other forum news(Fragmentation) that your a developer. So i don't understand your comment on this. you should be able to understand technical limitaions, technological capabilities on software and hardware. sony ericsson before it became sony has great phones in par w/ dual cores and is just a little behind the quadcore beast already roaming the mobile arena. I beleive if your a developer, you understand OSs, hardwares and how the work w/ each other. singlecore does ok on some peoples needs while quadcores fills the other needs if single core is not sufficient for some. and again...just like one of the post here, there are niches in the market that needs to be filled aswell.

                    TDMaster, 20 Mar 2012Please Sony stop with the Single Core CPU it Sucks!!! move... moreSony need not really move on to quad cores. As quad cores are not really required. Two cores should be sufficient. And two cores were even seen to be performing better than the Tegra 3 quad core. So there's really no need. And the power that htc one X and likes, are supposed to have, will surely be bottlenecked by the 1GB RAM. The Quad Cores, will only be useful for higher Benchmark Scores and things. And even Samsung has their SIII postponed. I suppose that's because they are putting a better RAM, and may be a still better processor in it. So a quad core is really not necessary at this point of time. But the sooner we get it from all the compainies, the better.

                      If u want QUADCORE so badly go USE SAMSUNG OR HTC.SE is fine with singled cored 1Ghz processor anyways all these are jst SPEC is means NOTHING.it depends on what the users needs and wants.

                        How many people can spend £450 for phone. It has single core cpu, it doesn't mean, it is the worst phone.
                        There are billion of people who can't afford such phone this is for them.
                        If you want quad core, browse gsmarena and you will find dozens of quad core.
                        After tsunami in japan sony is doing good job. Quad core will be available soon in sony.

                          i agree, it's curious that the system is in czech... and i think that the CPU should at least be the same as Arc S, 1.4Ghz

                            People!! Just because there is quad core doesn't mean that every phone for every f@@king company need to use it! There are niches that need to be filled if every company decides to release 5 quad core with 12 mp camera phone.

                              their is no wrong with 1 ghz single core processor....the important thing is the software that runs on its hardware is smooth and has no issue of lagging or freezing while running the phone...

                                  if they made a re-make of a neo then they deffinatly will make a re-make or possibly a better , upgraded Xperia play or play 2 or play S or whatever but if possible then it should be quad-core with a quad core adreno 225 quad core gpu aswell so max gaming but a bigger battery about 2500MAh

                                      I have a neo5. It's cool. But reading this new devt, why dwell with single core? The reason why samsung leads is they are aggressive. Unlike sony erricson, now sony, always hesitant. Think about it engineers. Things may be unnecessary but "the market is the market".
