                They also mentioned that they have been made aware of the problem and a small number of Xperia arc smartphones have a hairline crack in the paintwork near the proximity sensor, which is located at the top of the handset.

                            I'm giving a comparison between Sony Ericcson Xperia Arc and Motorola Atrix....These are ALL facts and can be checked at “gsmarena’s” specifications.... Nothing here is my opinion. All is factual.

                            Arc has a great 8mp camera with more options. (Exmor R sensor is a minor tech improvement, but there is no CCD lens, just a plastic lens, NO wide angle lens, No large camera sensor) Motorola Atrix only has a decent 5mp camera. (Nokia N8 is the BEST camera/video phone)

                            Arc has a 0.2 inch larger display. Atrix has higher screen Resolution. Both have outdated LCD screens. Although the Arc has LED Backlighting, which is better. (Nothing compares to a Super Amoled screens by Samsung)

                            Different Android customizations, although both are fully upgradable. Motorola is more upgradable due to faster CPU, higher ROM and more RAM

                            Arc talk time is 7 hours, Atrix talk time is up to 9 hours. Atrix , in theory will have longer time for internet, movies, GPS, music , general usage etc.
                            Arc battery is 1,500 mAh, Atrix battery is 1,930 mAh.

                            Arc is slimmer at 10.0mm as compared to Atrix 10.1mm..
                            Arc is 125 mm long. Atrix is 117.8 mm long.

                            Arc is is a beautiful designed phone. This is its main selling point.
                            Both phones are excellent plastic build quality. Both made by Foxconn in China.

                            Motorola Atrix has Dual-core 1GHz CPU. Arc has 1GHz single processor CPU. (Dual core is only used when needed, thus not really affecting battery life)
                            1080p, full HD video playback is possible with Atrix via a HDMI cable to TV. Full HD is not available in Arc.

                            Atrix has 1GB RAM. Arc only has 512 mb RAM.

                            Atrix has 16GB storage. Arc only has 320mb. (Need to buy a memory card for Arc)

                            Atrix has a secondary Camera. Arc has NO secondary camera.

                            Atrix has a finger print reader. Arc doesn’t.

                            Atrix has HSDPA, 14.4 Mbps. Arc only has HSDPA, 7.2 Mbp.

                            Motorola Atrix has several add on options such as a docking stand etc....

                            All this info is not biased and can be checked at gsmarena’s specifications.

                                        Is "Android OS, v2.3 (Gingerbread)" considered a fast version? Because when I googled, I realised that the latest version now is 3.2.. Is it recommendable to buy this arc?
