After a 18 month contract with an iPhone, I've decided to go android and opt for the new xperia Arc. Reviews say it's pretty damned good like - anyone else got one on preorder? I don't think I'll be heading back to Apple anytime soon after giving me mate's HTC Desire a whirl.....think the xperia has the new android on it as well.

Makes great sense buying a shitty experia (all of them have been shitty) just before the iPhone5 comes out

no hints or leaks.... no guarantee there is one this year, maybe the iphone 4 in white will just suffice people...

more importantly, why get any phone right now when there's a raft of dual cores etc coming through the door...

iPhone5 will be round the corner soon i know, but apple need to revamp iOS as the novelty of tenured users is starting to wear... they need something fresh!

Apple said keynote this year will be software only. So no iPhone this year. Apparently.

Have you actually bothered to read up on this phone, or as other Apple gayers do have you simply decided that it's shite without knowing owt about it? :roll:

I'm leaving Apple behind because to be honest it was a gimmicky phone designed for pre teens and people like yourself ;)

Kind of puts your comments in a different light methinks :lol:

Because if you read the reviews of the first batch of dual core phones, the results have been less than astounding let's say.....Galaxy S2 was about the only thing worth waiting for tbh and from what I can see, the new xperias can handle things just fine. It looks like S/E are finally producing some phones that can compete with the best.

Could you not afford a new iPhone like ?

Times are hard like.

Those xperias are wank.

am not knocking the xperia arc.... I played with one today in the shop, and its a great phone... and with my 3GS being up for contract in a couple of month, its definitely turned my head... though i couldnt help but feel that Android 2.3 seems somehow wasted on a small device..... excellently intuitive, but scaled on a phone..... but a great system nonetheless... used it and liked it instantly... and a canny camera as well... oh, and it makes calls too

Sounds good - I have a 3GS too and as has been said above, I am a little tired of iOS. Oh and I'm somewhat embarrassed by some of the fanboys on here - I loved my iPhone but it's time for a change I reckon ;)

shit argument :lol:

even from a current iphone user.... theres no difference in cost on premium phones these days on a contract...

2 months and the playing field will be open... new models released by just about everyone
 
I read the first couple of those reviews you linked to.....both of them said "not as good as an iPhone"

Are you 'special'?
:lol:

Yet again, spoken like a true Apple gayer. If I'd wanted an Iphone 4, I'd have opted for one - I am sick of iOS, prefer Android and the xperia does the things that I want better than an iPhone.

Got proper Adobe flash yet btw? ;) :oops:

Not even the best android phone

And what's that pray tell? :lol:

Admit it, you don't have an iPhone......you just wanted to qualify your phone by saying that you're turning your back on apple to get something better.

Unfortunately for you the phone you've selected in wank and makes you look like a spenk.

Fail :lol:
