We're big fans of the Arc's operating system. It runs Android – as with lots of other Android smartphones – but Sony Ericsson's own interface isn't anywhere as intrusive as some rivals, offering quick responses and Android at its best. As we've come to expect from Android, the Arc is incredibly intuitive, letting you move apps around and set up shortcuts on one of the five home screens. The fact
The biggest disappointment with the Xperia Arc is its woeful battery life. With some of the impressive features turned on, and taking advantage of that huge screen, it's easy to kill the battery within a day. Other than that though, it's difficult to pick fault.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc is an excellent smartphone. If you can live with the poor battery life - a compromise on nearly every Android handset - it's well worth a look, with an impressive screen, great design and all the features you'll ever need. ...

Large and maybe unwieldy for those with smaller hands
The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc combines good specifications with a strong physical design, and the smooth lines and thinness of the Arc really appeal. ...
Out of all the smartphones that have embraced the Android OS, the Xperia Arc is perhaps the most beautiful in appearance with its deep black veneer and aquiline shape.Compared to its close relation, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, which doubles as a gam...
Subtle and practical improvements to Android, a decent camera and a large, colourful screen make the arc tempting, but it may soon find itself outpaced by dual-core models. ...

The Xperia Arc is a convincing smartphone with great performance in most areas including photos, videos, music, web browsing and a smooth interface. It's just a shame that Sony Ericsson hasn't gone the extra mile with its customisation and that the bat...
Overall the Sony Ericsson XPERIA Arc is a good smartphone for those wanting a device with a larger screen and needing good all round video and camera performance. Video playback and taking photos is what this phone does best, and frankly better than al...
