Sony Ericsson Arc Review
Xperia ARC Display: The 4.2 "large screen uses Sony's new" Reality Display "technology, which is probably most of all be said to be their take on Apple's" Retina ". It works really well, and combined with Mobile Bravia (also from Sony, which you might recognize the name from their TVs) you get excellent black level (black) and good colors.
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc camera: The mobile phone equipped with an excellent 8.1 megapixel camera. The camera uses Sony's "Exmoor-R" sensor technologies to enhance the sensitivity which gives much better pictures in low light (ie. In the evening). This combined with a 2.4 lens gives a better picture in indoor environments than many competitors' models.
You also get autofocus, LED flash and touch focus, which means that you simply touch the screen where you want the phone to focus. Additionally, the image stabilizer, geo-tagging (using the GPSen) and smile & face.
The phone is just 8.7 mm thick, which immediately makes it one of the thinnest phones in the mobile market. It's ideal to pant or shirt pocket without being a nuisance, since it also only weighs 117 grams.
