Haven't seen anyone explaining all the fuss about the display and the Bravia Engine, so I'll just do that. The Bravia stuff only works when viewing photos and videos, whether it be in the gallery, YouTube app, etc. Think of it as a small script that "Photoshops" the image to increase saturation, contrast and reduce noise levels. The Bravia engine is not hardware-related, it's software. You can turn it off in the display settings, and you can actually notice a difference if you take a screenshot with it enabled and disabled.

I've only got the silver one personally, but had a chance to play with the blue one a couple of months ago. Not as nice a photo, but still a photo of it:

Tre.se men jag köper den via http://www.misco.se för att slippa få den branded. men kanske skulle avboka och köpa via tre ändå bara för att få silver?
skiljer 700kr typ inte okey

Definitely not. Both are of cheap plastic. That's probably the biggest drawback of the Arc.

ditto, its not just about o/s. I was never interested in the x10 but the arc just has the je-ne-sais-quois about its styling, plastic or not... and that is what really separates one android from another these days...
