Im switching from iphone 4:
- IS scrolling is a pain comparing to silky smooth iphone.
- Camera wise IS better quality in day but worse in low light.
- IS Audio quality output from headphone jack has background hiss where iphone is quite and nice
- IS multitasking and execution of app is way much much faster than iphone 4

I just hope gingerbread will make the UI scroll or pinch/zoom smoother, at least 70-80% of iphone smoothness

using totally naked phone aka ori cover LOL
i feel tat it being rubber based is good enuff reason for it to be protected lol...
as for screen, its gorilla glass but i am worried about the oil/ smudges etc...

Wow the colors on the ARC are really awesome.

sd recording on the IS so horrible...

hmmm i guess we'll just have to wait for iphone 5?

but i check the Mail setting...it dont have the setting that u mentioned....

IS wins memory..

ARC wins video/camera..

if arc was not around, i would take IS already..

I am assuming you are using default mail app

Launch mail app . At Settings/Send & Recieve :

Download option - you can set no of day. Example if you set 2 days, after 2 days, all the downloaded mails before that will be deleted

Further down : Sync deleted items from server - if this is selected , all downloaded mail ill be deleted irrespective when you download it

Further down : Delete mail on server - ON of off. If this is selected yes, when you download mail all your earlier mail will be delted

If you also download mails to your computer - by default the mails will be deleted from server. So if you need to download to your phone - select do not delete from server - check your mail settings on PC or Mac for this. As once mails deleted from server when you use phone to sync all the mails will be deleted from phone . So you have to control it yourself by going to set it on the phone as listed above

Damn.. my IS just now experience a sys crash. How can this happen?

I have the IS reboot on me several times since I bought it last week.. do a google search and you'll see a lot of people having the same issue. I've never owned a HTC before this.. this just leaves a bad taste in me. When I get my iPhone 4 replacement (front glass shattered) 2 weeks from now, I'm tossing this out of the window.

Se products might look awesome at first but later on u will regret. Their product only sell for look only but the price is more expensive then regular ones with the same spec.

Anyone has problem when on phone call for more than 5 mins, and out of sudden the speakerphone will have strong interference (THe sound like you point a mic to speaker in karaoke room) ?

Except for the above, the speakerphone also having static hiss noise at the background no matter at what volume.

If nobody having this, i'm going for warranty from the shop

The colors on the ARC is close to 100% the actual colours while the IS colors are more faded. But overall the IS remains a better performer in other areas

Weird, mine too! Aroung 6 ish too..Suddenly heard the phone reboot, then a notification saying report to HTC came.

Clear Screen Protector is available now.
PM me if interested

thanks a lot benny! i think i'll get the arc just for it's camera function.. and keep my other phone for other functions.. now thinking to let go of atrix or optimus 2x.. hmm

Guys, need to know. The matte Screen protector does it effect the screen alot? I want to get that, but worried it might reduce the brightness alot..

What do you guys think!?

Never like matt as it downgrade the display quality

Is it very noticeable benny? I only want it for the fingerprints. I hate to see finger prints on my device :S
