Sony Ericsson Xperia arc hands-on videos

Last month I had a sneak peek at the latest generation of Xperia phones from Sony Ericsson, including the wafer-thin arc. Now that I have an arc to test out, I made a couple of hands-on videos, taking a look at the hardware and software on this high-end Android 2.3 smartphone. Loaded with a 4.2″ screen and a great 8MP camera, Sony Ericsson has managed to fix a lot of the flaws of their first Android phone, the X10. Gone is the full fledged Timescape. In its stead SE has added a number of custom widgets and skinning to keep the Xperia branding, while not deviating too far from the 2.3 experience.


You can see the full videos below.

 

The Xperia arc is available from Rogers, at Future Shop, for $99 here.
