We're big fans of the Arc's operating system. It runs Android – as with lots of other Android smartphones – but Sony Ericsson's own interface isn't anywhere as intrusive as some rivals
Offering quick responses and Android at its best. As we've come to expect from Android
The Arc is incredibly intuitive
Letting you move apps around and set up shortcuts on one of the five home screens. The fact
Big screen
Mini HDMI socket
Good camera
Impressive performance
Qualcomm Snapdragon 835
Small size
Promised battery life
The editors didn't like
Screen is a little yellow
Camera and video software could be better
Back key location had us hitting on-screen buttons
Thin
Plastic case seems delicate
No privileged access to PlayStation content or Sony's music and film catalogues
Poor battery life
Timescape is disappointing
No Mac compatibility
Some small issues with software usability
Slightly creaky design
Screen doesn't live up to the hype
Timescape widget is a bit fiddly
Tiny camera button
Solid
But still plasticky build
All plastic exterior
Ambient light detector can only be deactivated
Not adjusted
Sony Ericsson software not developed enough
Large and maybe unwieldy for those with smaller hands
Small
Fiddly power and volume buttons
Timescape widget is rather ugly
Text entry system is a bit last generation
Only five home screens
The biggest disappointment with the Xperia Arc is its woeful battery life. With some of the impressive features turned on
And taking advantage of that huge screen
It's easy to kill the battery within a day. Other than that though
Thin and light build, Unique 'arc' design, 4.2inch Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA Engine, Snappy and capable 8.1megapixel camera with f/2.4 lens
Small and impractical physical buttons, Needs to be handled with care
Analyzing the arcThe Sony Ericsson Xperia arc is good-looking, functional and primed for success - even if the 4.2-inch awesome display doesn't bowl you over for some unknown reason, its impossibly slim build will. Of course, the phone itself is not 100% ...
There is a LED indicator that lights up orange when the phone is charging, and green when the battery is full. Conclusion The Xperia Arc is one of the sleekest smartphones we have seen from Sony Ericsson that sports a huge display and yet is extremely...
