Arc have a really bad, but unique, design with the 3.5 mm unusable on the side.

AnonD-2881, 08 Apr 2011Why are you people comparing ARC with GALAXY S,galaxy s is ... morewell, I don't actually compare it.. I guess it's Samsung fans who started all that debate..
and I guess, this place is for commenting the review, not commenting the phone.. if you want to comment the phone go to this link: http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_arc-reviews-3619.php

Why are you people comparing ARC with GALAXY S,galaxy s is a one year old phone which is still very powerful,sony is really really late in delivering a new phone,i mean they should have brought a dual core phone this year like all the other companies,but they are bringing single core and selling it at the cost of dual core,which is not a good thing,

At first., {my comment is not for brand loyals mind you.,!}
you have to understand there are Internationaly Qualified engineers at Sony., so what things seem to be a disadvantage to you is not really a disadvantage., Think of it again.,!
*poor display angles.,?
If a person thinks of poor display angles from LCD., then I laugh hahaha go read something about display screens.,! Its LCD; not LED., & basically its a decency., you simply don't want any other person to look at your fone what u are doing.,! & who uses fone from side angles.,? Haha.. again stupid thoughts so POOR DISPLAYING ANGLES is an advantage if you think wisely.,!
*Front facing Camera.,?
Not a 1% of people use 3G/Video calling functions.,! So at first the function itself is a B.S.,! & front facing camera isn't here just to keep the body perspective of fone COOL.,!
*Dual Core.,?
Not even a single application is heavy that has to use multi-threading that needs a dual core., & now lets talk about games., the architecture of game built for dual core can only enjoy its power., not those who are made for single core technology., So if you understand there is no point of giving dual core.,! The fone itself is much faster & Gingerbird UI boosts its performance.,! Also keep one thing in mind., what SE gives the function., he really means it.,! He really gives the real time performance at backend too.,! Not some vocabulary used in Media-Ads.,! Lolzz., So don't worry for Dual Core.,!
*Hotswappable micro SD.,?
Thats a fashion too., the fone gives a complete maximum performance when fone restarts with sd card., not just in middle of running apps u take it out & slowe your fone., the engineers focused on the performance & reliabilty of fone performance.,! & how stupid likes to pull /push microSD card again & again from such a beauty.,!
So again this thing gives a decency to ARC.,!
& I ain't just an analyst boasting of knowledge., Im a User+analyst.,
& I simply don't regret buying that fone.,!
What I can say about it is.,
It Is Exotic Beauty.,!
Go for it.,!

AnonD-252, 06 Apr 2011Galaxy S is less expensive than Arc, and Arc have very bad ... moreArc has L shaped headphones which means that it's 3.5 mm placed on side is actually a good thing.

AnonD-3557, 05 Apr 2011Quick update.
I bought my Xperia Arc on Orange in the UK... moreThere is auto brightness, it is always on.
The auto brightness works by increasing the brightness of your screen.
Try it out, set your screen's brightness to the dimmest.
Now, cover the top left corner of the phone, where the light sensor is (that white dot next to the black colour proximity sensor), you can see your screen dimming, when you lift your finger up, it brightens according to the ambiance light in the room.

This is the only good looking Android phone out there and I wish Nokia's WP offerings will be just as sexy. I'm getting tired of my N8 but not because it does not serve me well but because of the screen defect. I might jump into the Android bandwagon soon but will most likely jump back to Nokia when they release a good looking high end WP.
