But you were so sure about the Neo
What made you change your mind?
Posted by Bonovox
Well,not sure really but they are both the same handset really so it does not matter. And the Arc comes out earlier so less waiting
It's done now
They did hold the money for a week in my Neo order but after so many days it drops off in the bank if not taken. So I just cancelled it & did the Arc[ This Message was edited by: Bonovox on 2011-03-28 15:02 ]

Bono, looking forward to your thoughts on the Arcâ„¢ now.
Posted by Bonovox
It won't be as that is the day it comes out.

Are those prices likely to change before its released do you think?
Posted by Bonovox
Not before Friday I doubt it.
Posted by dibdin
Fine as I will be ordering mine before Friday. Usually buy my phones from Carphone, but not sure if I would end up waiting longer to get the Arc if I order from then.
Good to see you've seen sense an ordered the Arc lol.
Posted by Bonovox
Yes still prefer Neo design but wanted Arc as its out sooner so SE told me. Also the Arc screen is yes bigger but in photos it looks better for clarity from what I see. Carphone are only taking back orders now
Posted by se_dude
Ok people who have the arc, can you tell me how much ram you have at bootup?
Posted by dibdin
I see Clove have now changed their date to 1st April from W/C 28th March. So going by what others said 1st April is confirmed date. Another weekend to endure waiting for the Arc Aarrgghhh.
Posted by Bonovox
I know it kills the waiting
For people who have the Arc what are your impressions so far?? Build quality,audio for music,calls?? Battery life,camera video we want to know

The midnight blue will arrive in time though.
that's not okey
Posted by Bonovox
Have you any idea what the case will look like??
Posted by dibdin
Engadget have reviewed the play, so hopefully it won't be too long till they do the same for the Arc.
Posted by Bonovox
Ooh,link?? Wonder what the camera is like on the Play??
Posted by dibdin
The link is the last post on the play thread.
Posted by Bonovox
Just watching the Play review video he says the screen lacks brightness. The Play does not have BRAVIA or Exmor does it?? He says the Play plastics squeak

No bravia engine, no clear black technology, it's just a normal LCD with 16M colors:
This was most apparent to us outdoors when we used it side by side with Sony Ericsson's own Xperia Arc, the latter handset giving us better contrast, saturation, and of course, brightness.

@Bonovox yes i do as it's the same as i have for my x10i (but i personaly thought it was to small, but i will have to wait and see i guess)
Posted by Bonovox
OK cool. I noticed the Arc does have better screen
Posted by luwi
I can confirm that xperia arc is now available here in dubai via axiom/fono shops for 2399AED.
For me, midnight blue is way better than silver one.
Posted by Bonovox
Have you got one?? Tech Radar website have also reviewed the Arc

Posted by Bonovox
Not heard much yet from people who have one
Posted by Ricke77
LOL! So @Bono! You finally got your sences together and ordered an Arc! Thats great! Guess you finally fell for the "slim and sexy"... Guess we will compare swedish and uk arc:s instead of Neo and Arc!!
According to my network dealer the phone will arrive in my mail this week. I truly hope they are right!

Yes,but the waiting is doing my head in
And yes it's slim with curves in the right places. Having spoken with sales a few times they did confirm it is Friday for release day. I reckon stock may arrive day or so before that.
Posted by dibdin
I have just placed my order of the Arc with Carphonewarehouse. I was told if I were lucky I may have it Friday, Monday at the latest. Once I get my hands on it I will give my take on this gorgeous looking phone.
Posted by Bonovox
I thought Carphone were out of pre order stock??
Posted by Ricke77
Well... I guess this week will be the longest and most frustrating one for a long time...
Posted by Bonovox
Yes will have to keep busy to avoid thinking so it will go faster. I would prefer silver one but Sony Ericsson only allowing the other colours for contract not sim free at the moment. Even though already in a contract.

Just repeating what I was told over the phone. I will keep an open mind, as I have found with some of the staff at Carphone tell you one thing while another member of staff tells you something completely different.

Yes,me too
Phones4U are even worse
