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?

Im spoilt by the goodness of super AMOLED sad.gif

Super AMOLED more vibrant thats all IMO. The Arc's screen is pretty decent. I'd say it's pretty good. I ditched my iPhone 4 for this. It'd better be tongue.gif

Haha, vibrant colours is important. Since we are using the phone throughout most of the day, staring at a washout, plain and lifeless screen is quite unsatisfying. Arc's viewing angle also seems to be a problem huh? sweat.gif

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. biggrin.gif

well everyone got their own taste, but for my phone, i rarely let others share watching something on my phone.. i plug in my hdmi to the big screen, n there u go, c it on every angles tht u like lol..

but yeah, i do admit one thing, which is for now, the good buy is sgs2 n sensation as its a bang for the buck.. good spec..

ppl who choose arc over sgs2 most probably for the camera, n the unique design.. i choose arc mainly bcoz of tht criteria, thts all.. still got the wow factor when take out the phone n let ppl see it..

im trying to make the phone comfortable for me to use, n so far it serve its purpose with a little tweaking here n there.. im not a rich guy, so any stuffs tht i bought alwaz stay long time with me lol...

Yes, Arc camerashots looks better than Incredible S. 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 similar
