We recently heard that the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc would be available with O2 in the UK in April, and now another mobile network, Three, has confirmed they will be stocking the Xperia Arc from April.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc will come with the latest version of Android, Android 2.3 Gingerbread, and it will feature a 4.2-inch multitouch display, plus an 8.1-megapixel camera.
Advanced Camera Capabilities
The camera in the Xperia Arc features Sony’s Exmor R sensor, which is designed to enhance low-light performance, making it easier to capture clear and vibrant photos even in dim conditions. This sensor technology is particularly beneficial for night photography or indoor settings where lighting is less than ideal. Additionally, the camera will be able to record HD video in 720p, allowing users to capture high-definition videos with ease. The Xperia Arc also includes features like face detection, smile detection, and image stabilization, which further enhance the photography experience.
Performance and Storage
Under the hood, the Xperia Arc is equipped with 512MB of RAM, which ensures smooth multitasking and efficient performance for everyday tasks. While 512MB might seem modest by today’s standards, it was quite competitive at the time of the phone’s release. The device also includes a microSD card slot that will come with an 8GB card out of the box, providing ample storage for photos, videos, and apps. Users can expand the storage further by using a larger microSD card, supporting up to 32GB, which is ideal for those who need more space for their media and files.
Design and Display
The Xperia Arc boasts a sleek and stylish design, with a curved back that fits comfortably in the hand. The 4.2-inch multitouch display offers a resolution of 854 x 480 pixels, delivering sharp and vibrant visuals. The screen is also equipped with Sony’s Mobile BRAVIA Engine, which enhances the display quality by improving contrast, color saturation, and sharpness. This makes the Xperia Arc an excellent device for watching videos, browsing photos, and playing games.
Connectivity and Additional Features
In terms of connectivity, the Xperia Arc supports a range of options, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. It also features a micro USB port for charging and data transfer, as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack for audio. The device is equipped with various sensors, such as an accelerometer, proximity sensor, and compass, which enhance the overall user experience by enabling features like auto-rotate and location-based services.
Three have not given any details on pricing plans and also how much the handset will cost, but it is expected to be competitively priced to attract a wide range of customers. As soon as we get some more information, we will let you guys know.
