Is the screen on the Arc likely to suffer from screen burn at all??

Its probably because of costing back plastic is cheaper  but over all it looks good
Sure it is, but if the price will be similar as when X10 was released some metal parts would not hurt to justify the price. |

Especially when you're at 117g, they could have added 5-6 g easily

It doesn't really weigh anything. Feels very light, taking the the size into consideration.

In Danish, but worth viewing.
Also, here's my quick sneak peek at Arc and a quick comparison with the LG Optimus 2X:

Not too happy about the back cover. It's made of glossy plastic and feels a bit cheap.
Yeah, I know what you mean. Some metal parts (e.g. the back cover or the frame) would have made the phone a bit more luxury.
One reason I got the black X10 was because of the matte back cover. I do think however, that any weight they can shave off is worth it, a few grams makes a difference imo. |

@ Mizzle, am I hearing this right when Mobil.nu says the price is gonna be 4000 danish kronor (~530 euro). If so it's cheaper than I expected.

Yep, it was confirmed to us by one of the Danish national account managers. That's including tax.

Then it goes from interesting to really interesting. It still not cheap but its not top high-end expensive either. |

I think Richard Skogberg at the product launch blog mentioned 384 available RAM, he has been wrong before though |

This is what he said "Different manufacturers use different type of numbers in their specs communication. Amount of total “RAM” in my sample according to some benchmarking apps and the inbuilt system info seems to be around 313 MB and the amount of storage memory for applications seems to be around 380 MB. (Important to remember that my sample still has early SW so don’t take these numbers as facts!)"
X10 doesn't have 512 AFAIK, rather 384 or something in that order
Edit: my X10 have 165 MB available RAM after startup.

honestly this phone remind me of the days SE have T610 or K700.
on hardware/ electronics.... those phone was far behind what Nokia offering during that time.
even for W880...when it was out...spec isn't good but selling point is thickness
now SE also have similar situation for Arc...hardware...it don't have AMOLED but well...majority of the phone maker is trying to avoid it due to capacity issue in the industry....and other stuff on electronics as well.
because SE focus on the style...just like T610/ K700 which were HIT product even with an lag behind electronics put in.
Those two product have very lousy display and camera compare to others when it was out.
Now I just wish the price is right with proper marketing since Arc is in my opinion the nicest looking ANdroid phone announced so far in 2011....all the others maker are sickening....Samsung and LG in particular....its just like they get a copy machine taking the stuff out from iPHONE..... really feel like Samsung and LG is trying hard to be "SHAN ZAI" brand to APPLE.
opssss enough nagging hehe...once I got the budget, I will definitely look into what to get....Arc or the still unannounced Zeus. Arc got the advantage due to its style. |
