An ap arc and ori arc...is that really matter? @@

It depend.. but wats matter is the warranty. If u can get a very good ap warranty sush as 18 mths warranty, then it is gud enough..

If the phone doesn't have any major known issue(s), then just get AP.

Phones don't spoil easily anyway. Plus, SE phones are pretty decent.

I've had an SE and a Nokia, both AP, neither required a warranty claim. Just don't abuse the phone.

Here some screenshot for u mate :

juz rooted doesnt improve performance lorh.
u need to edit some item in build.prop and also add some tweak at init.d folder.
that is for advance user but for us normal user, there a lot of tweak that are ready to be flashed easily.
try to check SE xperia arc section at xda thread regularly for the new update.
for me, i juz underclock it to juz 900mhz just to save battery and most important, no lag at all and apps run smoothly.
trust me, rooted phone is a must to make ur arc/arc s truly ur own

Added on February 1, 2012, 7:25 amori arc really matter for those who want extended warranty and also nationwide warranty.
but if u heavy user that customize ur arc here n there, juz get ap set.
ori set got more warranty duration up to 18 month usually and can be claim at any SE centre or authorized SE centre.
ap set got shorted warranty duration. usually 12 month. and juz can be claim at the particular shop or that ap dealer

Thy said to me they will confirm with me on the total repair cost in 3 weeks time, and if i dont want to repair, i still need to pay rm30.00 for service charge. Yuckss.

I still remember when i changed my htc mozart lcd with software calibration, everything foc, because still under warranty.

You should fight back, complain to the superiors and adamantly demand for fairness. You've paid a premium for this warranty and now you are asked to pay more for something that isn't your fault in the first place. That is wrong, as consumers, we cannot allow corporations to have their way with us.

RM30 to have them check on a product they made and have promised to bear responsibility for manufacturing defects does not make any sense.

LOL. RM30 for juz checking? its ridiculous man

bro @calmshot

i think you just got conned by that guy
ok as i said earlier in pm,im gonna write my story about se sunway pyramid.

last week i went there bcause my xperia play sim card got stuck(micro sim)
its actually a micro sim card + micro sim card adapter = normal sim size

but it got stuck. so my phone is still under warranty so i went there
and that guy with no friendly face,berlagak ,kerek fcking face.
just open the back cover ,look not more than 5secs .. and said. need to open this(he meant open the whole thing, unscrew the screw) ,you need to pay rm30 to open it .and wtf .. and he said techinicain not there,so wait nxt week . and other thing .. he said it was my fault putting micro sim there as it not supported,thats why i need to pay rm30 even it still under warranty- sriously wtf . then why do they made sim card adapter for ??bullshit . btw this micro sim adapter does work on xperia arc s ,only xperia play cannot bcause its different ,

so i just walk out from the shop,
and went eat kfc , and take a straw(new one of course), kemek till nipis and cucuk2 there,the sim card go out lol . and i dun even need to pay 1 cent ,
i think if i pay rm30 also they wont open it,they just cucuk2 also

things i dont like about se sunway is that their workers there are just arrogant,not friendly at all , even when u look phones there,they will like give some shit face like asking u to gtfo if u dunwan to buy.
unlike apple where they dont even care people test their ipad,ipod,even kids can try and they nver care, or samsung,seller look at you but at least they are smiling and answer question like honest seller

my experience with sony warranty is their mp3 ,and their service is so good but its at times square.
so lets us ask sony . are they really charging us for things that still under warranty .if its true then screw them, if its not true,lets make this chinese guy wearing specs gtfo from sony .

i also ask 1 forumer here named yeelin..iinm she working at se sunway pyramid too .i ask her/him via pm before i went to se,and he said that their technician will check 1st,if the sim slot can't be used anymore,then they might charge .(the sim can be used except that it stucked) so it shoud be free
but this is diffrent
1st)that guy is not evn a fcking technian ,and he wanted to charge rm30 .

Added on February 2, 2012, 3:27 amAnd in yr case.. its really a con job.
U just buy that phone not more than 2 weeks and need to pay for service?

Ok its sound logic if yr phone warranty is at sg and they charge u for snding phone there but this is se my.

And since yr phone are brokeen screen crack, its ok if they charge.. but charging fr service while its still under warrabty is just ...
Iinm i read that sony snway does charge rm80 fr updating phone while u can do it fr free.and its from forum lowyat .
Bcause i was searching fr info about se warranty and that thread is on the search.
I hope u havent paid rm30 yet

dudes i think best is your guys email sony at

http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/common/con...nes?cc=my&lc=en

i did that last time coz i was having 1 dead pixel on my screen, and the ******* in sunway say is not under warranty, when i show my print out email then only they do it..

i guess we all have sony issue .. and all of it are at sunway pyramid ... so no doubt this guy are trying to gain profit .

Haa yup, sorry i havent paid yet, that guy told me when i want to take my phone later even if i dont want to repair it, i will be charged rm30.

So we will see later. But i will send an email to se malaysia regarding the charges for phone checking eventhou still under warranty.

guys, does Arc S able to touch screen with the touch screen pen?
i know that i can use my finger nail to touch screen on Arc S but I can do it on nokia5800
so if got pen then it will be more convenient to me

can, but dont know if all touch pen can use..

ok noted
thanks pal!
