Can anyone please tell me as to hows the sound quality via headphones? 
Its very good it give a lot of detail and its very balanced through out the range. If i compare that to the Desire HD I had using the same tracks, the DHD lacked mid and high range tones.
Just for reference though I am not using the headphones that came with the handset.

I am out taking more nice photos. Be back later. I was in Carphone store where they had a dedicated stand for Xperia models. All of them were working ones including silver Arc surprisingly the Neo which did not feel as nice as the Arc. And the Play which I took a picture of will upload later on.

Really?? Neo? Is it already released there?
How about the size of Neo compared to Arc? Is it significant due to smaller screen size?

I have just noticed the email client in 2.3 is much better than that of versions gone past. It allows previews much like a desktop experienced.
I am going to be experimenting with the camera today, so ill try and get some pictures posted up later. |

No Neo is not out yet but on this stand in Carphone store  had provided a working one for them. I was playing with it & the alarm went off  Anyway,yes it felt cheaper & looked cheaper. Screen not as nice either.

If someone has both Arc and X10, then do the photo comparison test. X10 results seem so much more pleasant to me. Maybe X10 doesn't use sony sensor and it;s just drivers fault? Wake up, Arc's camera istn;t good, heavy chroma noise even at iso 80. But do some test, if anybody owns both. I've bad feeling about this. The crops screm K850i quality to me:( I'm writing this because SE had some very good cameraphones in the past and it was one of its stronges assets. we, as brand fans, must criticize them if they launch half baked products, just for the company to regain its strength.

My argument will stand up. The Arc has a very sharp decent camera with also better specs & video than x10. Also it is faster than any camera phone on the market in terms of shutter speed & I have had many. The menus in the camera are better & easier & so is the flash. Also the phones software, features & overall performance is a big leap over the x10. Anyone who says it is a crap phone but has not used the phone is just plain daft. I would not say the Desire HD is rubbish before I brought it. I did buy it & wished I never. Anyway,the Arcoholics on here know better. A few people say,oh it looks the same as the x10 & has nothing new over the x10. Crap. Yeah,it looks a little similar but see it in the flesh & you will see it is not. Also it as I said new features & better performance. As for phones looking all the same take a look in the mirror HTC fans  All plain brown ugly devices that look the bloody same. I am not after a flame war I am mearly stating my point of what I know to be true of the Arc. I am entitled to my opinion & so is everyone else. You know who you are Toney

Galaxy S had very poor battery & terrible reception too. As for the Desire HD  It's a big brown lump. Those photos were around Bournville Birmingham near where I live by Cadbury's chocolate factory

No it's a sorry Saturday  @marcink,there was nothing wrong with K850i camera quality  Some on here still swear by that handset. The Arc is not half baked it is a an excellent device I have not got it just for the camera I wanted the best Android experience

I'm guessing the phone will come with DHL or someone, that's why it's not here today!

@Bonovox
Agree with you... though found the reception to be fine on it...
HD... was not good within 7 hours of hardly any use... I was hoping that there was a wall socket on the street...
Since 10am... Few messages and a couple of calls and playing around and I am on still on 93%... Amazing or what... Galaxy S would be on 60% approx and HD around 55% (which is totally rubbish)
Not had any slow downs on the phone at all too... So great

Well,when I ordered mine with they sent it next day via Parcel Force & it was here @ 8:30am  I was still in me night gear @SE-Naz yes no slow downs crashing restarts nothing & it is the smoothest Android I have used. A far cry from the laggy X10. I hated the Desire HD battery. I used to charge it up @ night. Wake up unplug it with not much running as I normally don't. Go have a shower come back up to get dressed & without any usage the battery had dropped by 15%  Shit!!
