just to add, dont ever put your finger in the microphone below the phone while recording anything. The sound will get muffled. The 2nd mic doesnt seems to be recording anything.. i tested it by covering each of them at different time and both at the same time..

How good is the screen on this thing? Seen it once during video playback and its quite ok. Read that the bravia engine thingy only works when viewing pictures and videos?

QUOTE(Davird @ Jun 25 2011, 04:05 AM) Any noticeable difference in speed and performance? video quality? higher class sd did have difference .. I'm on class 4, If i dun turn off contract killer, angry birds gets real pissed and hangs a while. the most easy way to find it out is by copy thing into different class sd .. there u will see the speed .. am using class 10 .. all app in sd .. no lag issue |

Arc's viewing angle also seems to be a problem huh? |

Just because one million people believes it is valid doesn't make it a truth.viewing angle is not important at all...it is useful for TV and PC monitors but for this? uh no lor.

When playing games that requires you to rotate you screen alot at different angles, putting the phone on the table and viewing it from an angle, having a bunch of people watching the phone for videos etc etc etc. Its weird to see the screen have such property when sony makes good screens for tv's.
I'll reserve my thoughts till actually get the phone. |

I find the SGS II camera equally good . I am not a photo expert , so cannot really define its quality versus the Arc. Off hand I'd say quite similari did a comparison between Arc and Incredible S and Arc is better.. |
