Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S Review

(LT18i)     See other variants reviews Score: 54 / 100

Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S is a good Android phone launched some years ago, in 2011, which features a great performance 1.4 gigahertz processing unit, an 8.1 megapixels back side camera and a medium sized 4.2-inches display.

Sony is offering this cellphone in multiple color options, black, gray, pink, blue and white. The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S is just 0.34 inches thick, making it one of the thinnest cellphones out there. This phone is much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone like this.

This phone includes a interesting 4.2-inches display with a 854 x 480 resolution, providing this cellphone with a detailed image quality. This display uses TFT capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S is equipped with a fast CPU clocking at 1400 MHz, included in the Qualcomm Snapdragon S2 MSM8255 system chip and 512 MB RAM memory. To collaborate with graphic rendering, this cellphone also has an Adreno 205 GPU speeding at 245 MHz. This cellphone counts with a 1 GB internal storage, a mediocre quantity that may be enough for some users considering it also has a slot for SD memory cards to store pictures and videos and even some apps that allow being installed in the external memory.

This phone is equipped with only an 8.1 MP back facing camera. This phone also shoots HD 1280x720 videos. In addition, this cellphone's camera also counts with many interesting characteristics like auto-focus, flash, face detection shooting, digital image stabilization, smile detection shooting and geo tagging.

This phone includes WiFi connectivity (which can be shared with other devices around, acting as a wireless router or modem) and 3G fast connection type, using HSPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This device uses a SIM card for GSM networks.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S also features a handful of cool characteristics such as Bluetooth and GPS, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S costs about $ 299, which is not cheap for this type of device.
