The display is a 4.2 inch capacitive touchscreen with a resolution of 854 × 480. It supports multi-touch, is scratch resistant and features the Mobile BRAVIAengine from Sony and is capable of displaying 16,777,216 colours.
The camera is an 8.1megapixels Exmor R sensor and is capable of recording video at 720p high-definition. It also has an LED flash.
Storage on the device is 1 GB with 320 MB free for user storage, this is expandable to up to 32 GB with a microSD card.
The Xperia arc too features only 3 hardware keys, unlike the usual 4-key pattern seen in Android phones. The search key has been removed, and instead, the user can directly search by long-pressing the menu key.
Basics[edit]
The Xperia arc operates on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) with a slightly changed launcher. The device is compatible with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), and Sony released an official update to 4.0 for unlocked units in early June 2012. Availability of the update for branded/carrier locked units is dependent on the carrier to offer it.
The display features a Sony Mobile BRAVIA Engine which offers enhanced picture and video viewing on the 4.2" display.
It also features an Exmor R sensor that allows the capture of high definition movies and stills in low lit areas, which can then be shown on a HDTV via theHDMI connector.
The arc S lacks a frontal camera. Also, the memory card is not hot-swappable.
Reception[edit]
The Xperia arc was first revealed on 6 January 2011 at CES 2011.[6]
