For Qualcomm chips - the 220 is ONLY for their Dual-Core lineup thus far according to wikipedia - who's source is Qualcomm.
BTW, several pages back I DID state the cpu as being MSM8255 without ANY inside help, tips, or anything else. Just pure research.
So the HTC Inspire 4G ALSO uses this same cpu/imbedded gpu solution as well for their AT&T launch. Yup looks like Qualcomm screwed up big time on release of their dual-core cpu solution. But we'll see 2nd half of 2011 with better than originally developed dual-core solution from them; but I'm sure a few engineers in house are being flogged double-time to come up with something better than Tegra2.

you forgotten during T610 out... nokia offering 7250 with stereo radio then 6225 with edge vs T630
when K700 out...nokia offer bigger screen....1megapixel camera and expandable memory on 7610 (plus its a smartphone)
but still SE beat them out.... its all about proper marketing just like how apple do best. Remember the day
when all the competition between SE and Nokia is always SE non smartphone product vs Nokia smartphone.
of course I can't say all Nokia spec at those time are far superior to SE but point is...not necessary you need the latest and greatest to be at top.

really like the redesigned camera UI. much cleaner and doesn't have any of the blue the x10 camera UI had.

@c96sthl i guess it was the price/design that made a great deal too, i have "hated" nokia since the 3110 5110 5210 and such phones.. i mean every little kid had that phone.. just in different housing/shells it was so "un-unique" so i had to buy a SE (it was swedish and noone else had one, been using my t20 (crappy) but when i got the t68, first mobile with color screen i was hooked ) there was no other alternativ than the k700 smartphones back than was more than i needed in functions and in price.

Yeah they need more of a girl strategy, if not the design, then offer some more colors. let the user "feel" uniqe make a phone that third party factorys can make stuff for, make the market bigger, like housings/docking stations, iphone keeps there phones alive because you have bought so many things for them, and the the stuff will work with the successor iphone4. i would love to have some neat stuff for my phone, but SE choses to but the USB charger on top (not easy to design a dock sation for that, nor a good car-holder... sell batteryhatches in different colors? i would love to have one in aliminium with the same bronze colors as the sides for example

Some things cleared up at the Product Blog:- The CPU and GPU specs are: MSM8255 at 1 GHz with Adreno 205.
- The music player does have an equalizer, my current software has 10 different genre based presets.
- It does not have a front facing camera.
- Mediascape is removed in its earlier form and has changed into a customizable widget based media pane (as shown briefly in the video)
- Its too early to officially give detailed comments around specific later Android versions for XperiaTM arc during its lifecycle but the changes we have made to our way of working with Android puts us in a good position to make sure that Xperia arc will get later versions in a timely manner.
- Ive seen articles around higher numbers than 2.3 being seen in the display of Xperia arc phones As I have been informed that is due to a misconfiguration in some samples and nothing to get too excited about really, sorry.
- It does have two microphones which will be used for noise suppression during phone calls.
- The camera LED flash is possible to put in four different modes; Auto, Fill-flash, Red-eye Reduction & Off.
- It does have full multi touch support, I just tried a similar multi touch test app as I did in the video on the X10 and at least in that app it accepts 4 simultaneous touch points without any issues with X- and Y-axis or such things. I will try to get confirmation on final specs in regards to multi touch.
- It does support wi-fi up to the 802.11n mode.

This is why I hate SE. !!!
I thought to settle down with my X10. I thought X10 is the best looking smartphone and SE can't better it....damn, the xperia Arc is so damn beautiful. Even the UI is much much better.
why SE, why you make me want to upgrade to arc ?
anyway, congrats to SE that maintain their superior in design-wise. SE is the only company that don't do iphone copy-cat. |

That's one main reason, I can't be  hater even regretted purchase of satio (in overall aspects).
They really do not try to intercepted market with iPhone-copycat style.
They style of design-wise is very optimal and look promising (on what they concentrated to do).

I don't get that love to Arc... I think ( or at least in my opinion ) Arc is 10x uglier than X10, its very asymmetrical device compared to X10, and I don't see the point in being that thin ( since I bend one thin phone on my pocket ). Not to mention the ugly menu button on the home screen, the lack of Mediascape ( which I liked ) and so on... And why did they changed the icons over the hardware buttons? They even left the miscroUSB uncovered. I just don't like that device, that's why I'm not going to buy it. The lack of proper white version of the phone is another deal-breaker.
