Hi!

In simple terms, due an upgrade and can see

Xperia X10 Pro, Xperia Neo, Xperia Play and Xperia Arc

I will check out the comparison features on the S-E site, but not sure what to go for. I guess Play is last choice because I have a Galaxy Tablet and a Nintendo 3DS.

I use my Nexus One mainly for email - exchange server and gmail, texts but I also use the internet, listen to music, watch video etc.

I get the feeling that if I want something now, then get the Arc. Not sure if it is worth waiting to see what the iPhone 5 brings..

I am not sure what the differences are with the 4 S-E handets as regards processor, internal memory etc.

Any opinions welcomed,

Compare all three side-by-side here at Esato. I would probably go for the Xperia Pro myself, as I do like QWERTY keyboard models. We are doing a Xperia Arc review right now and it is very responsive in all asspects. Xperia Pro shouldn't be any worse. Rumors has it that the iPhone 5 will have the same Exmor R camera sensor you'll find in the Arc, Neo and Pro.

Since you're not into the gaming feature of the Xperia Play because you already got that covered it would be useless to get one. I would like to recommend the Xperia Arc, for me it's the best among the 3 Xperias released recently (Play, Arc and Neo) and if I wasn't after the Xperia Play's gaming feature I certainly would have gotten the Arc instead.

I'm in for a Neo. Perfect blend of everything and not as huge as the Arc. Same features.

Well I didn't see the others
But Arc just does it. Big screen is a great thing and the whole device is really sleek.
I was wondeing about Neo Pro since it has the keyboard
but now nothing can take Arc away. This device is quite addictive.

There's no Neo Pro. There's only Xperia Neo and Xperia Pro. Two different models.

Yeah about the name you're right but they're almost identical.

Do you still have your WP7 phone? Would be great to see a comparison review of your Arc and WP7, highlighting pros and cons of both OS.

Get the Arc, it's a beaut and will prob get the most attention in the Modding community as well.

Yes I still have my LG on WP7!!
Is there a demand for such comparison?
I can do it and say why I reverted to Android......

Yep, im sure demand for such a comparison is on the rise as WP becomes more competitive, the best would be to do a comparison now and then do another after your LG gets the Mango update, will give people a great idea of how WP has evolved and if its worth a look at, as both OS share manufacturers.
