[NEW GADGET] April is like an Android month. Besides the release on the high profile Motorola Xoom and Acer ICONIA TAB A500, there are also HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and Sony Ericsson Xperia Play. ALL featuring either Android OS, v2.2 or v2.3.
Sony Ericsson Arc is the latest in the long line. And a very strong contender in the field given it’s 4.2” display which is bigger than all other Android smartphone offering currently in the market. And it’s said to be powered by the Sony Mobile BRAIVA Engine (BRAIVA is Sony’s series of LED or LCD Tvs) with enhanced contrast, richer colours and bright screen even under the sun!
Once again, specifications and technology should be proven via a real check on the handset and probably comparison with you know what else.
All stuff on the Arc is pretty standard as per a top range Android handset. It is obviously it’s eye catching exterior that is sell-factor. In my book at least, Sony Ericsson Arc has gotta be the sexiest phone money can buy now.
Sony Ericsson Arc is currently going for S$448 on SingTel Shop. Meanwhile an agent set with Mobile Square is going for S$800. (link) SE Arc comes with the black and silver version.
