                      Okay, so it's official now. That's good, but which is not, that it doesn't have a LED screen, it has LCD screen with Mobile Bravia Engine. So what you guys think, how will it perform against AMOLED/S-AMOLED? Now even S-AMOLED Plus in knocking the door.

                        So far, I don't rely on GSMArena specs although it clearly mentioned here "unofficial". I just hope Xperia Arc has multi-touch/pinch zooming. RAM should be higher than 512 and at least 1GB ROM. I am enjoying my Xperia X10 and definitely will get Xperia Arc. I expect Xperia Arc will be available worldwide before end of March, but if SE could release by mid-February the better since Xperia Arc is running 2.3 (aka Gingerbread) out of the box. SE is ALWAYS the BEST in phone design, no doubt about it, so stylish.

                          it is an led back light screen and will be boxed with a 16gb micro sd bring on the iphone killer once again

                                the most sexiest phone in the sony ericsson career
                                but
                                4.2" screen is to much
                                if it is 3.2" it is good

                                  If the specification is correct,
                                  then this phone gonna rocks the world!
