Great phone

focal86 has owned it for less than year before publishing this review

Had this phone for about 8 months but unfortunately I had a car crash just before christmas and the phone was damaged. None the less, this is a great phone that I would recommend to friend or family. Not the fastest processor and battery is quick to go but lets face it, what do you expect from a multifunction media device like this. Is it so hard to plug it to an charger over night, well not for me, I don't use it much while I'm sleeping. I upgraded to the Galaxy SII, primary because of the processor and I wanted to try some thing new, but all in all, just a fantastic phone.

Battery 10/10 Some people complain about the battery but for me it was enough if lasted through the day and little bit more. Sony Ericsson could have put a bigger in but it didn't give me any problems.

Pros

• About everything

Cons

• UI speed little slow there and there.
• Short battery life for some people.

The amazing SEX Arc

RamyRamz69 has owned it for less than year before publishing this review

Basically, the device is awesome. It can be your everyday device with no problem. It may perhaps lack some stuff that the vanill Gingerbread has, but SE gives you A L O T more features than any other Android phone in the market.

Build quality 9/10 It's made by plastic, not the best. but it's good enough

Reception 10/10 Overall its amazing

Call quality 10/10 Never had a problem while calling with it. The noise cancellation works just fine

Internet 9/10 A bit slow sometimes, but the speed is great and its not laggy.

Multimedia 10/10 Best multimedia device ever. Offers you everything

Camera 10/10 Lens are perfect, modes are perfect, video is perfect, camera quality is perfect overall

UI speed 9/10 A bit laggy sometimes

Everyday usage 10/10 It does all my needs

Text input 9/10 Original keyboard isn't that good

Display 10/10 So bright, so clear, so crisp

Battery 10/10 Lasts for 2 days straight with normal usage

Best Phone..

anshul879 has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

It has a very slim and curvy body. phone processor is not so fast but its features makes the phone best. battery is also not too good. camera quality is always a plus point. Overall it's a good phone.

Build quality 10/10 Because it has a very good and slim design.

rishi_msk has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

one of the best Android smart phone in the market...looks awesome..camera is great..
Bravia engine really works well...
Display being a SLCD is still comparable to Amoled screens..Phone is sleek..easy to carry..very light and slim..Good back up support offered by sony ericsson..already got 2 updates in a month..3d sweep panaroma upgrade is already out on my phone before the launch of the xperia arc S...
the only major flaw-BATTERY!!!drains out very fast..hope sony ericsson provides a powerful battery..
if u wana stand out in the CROWD....go for this phone!!!!

Very good indeed

Giuliano has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

I think the SEricsson Arc can be considered one of the most beautiful phones SE has made till now and surely one of the most beautiful smartphones in the market today. It works like magic and has got a huge display. Immages and video are sharp. It is amusing and very useful in every condition and situation, may you read, write, view, play or shot a photo and film. As nothing is perfect on earth, the Arc, too, gets its cons. For instance, its battery is just sufficient and its power depends on what you are doing on the phone. Maybe its memory could be increased and I think it overheats almost easily when working. All in all, that smartphone is really good and effective. I like it.

Better but not the BEST

Shah has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

Everything is fine less BATTERY, The battery time for this giant is one day + or - ( despite the best possible tips gathered on battery issues ). If switched to 2.3.3 Android version then it is really fast and one can notice alot. Picture Quality is great and specially with BRAVIA engine you can enjoy alot.
Over all a BETTER choice.
