Entertainment at the speed of delight

Why wait to be entertained? Start the camera. Now shoot and save your best snaps super quick. The 1.4GHz turbo processor does everything at the speed of, well, delight. So download and play games, browse the web and watch videos, instead of watching them load.

Scenes that pop out of the screen. In 3D

Straddle the peaks. Dive into the depths. Make your breathtaking mountain panoramas look, well, breathtaking. Select Sony’s 3D Sweep Panorama and catch the scene. Now amaze your mates and show it on a 3D TV.

Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA® Engine

Enhanced contrast. Richer colours. Less image noise. The Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA® Engine makes the super-wide, 4.2", LED back-lit screen sharp and crisp. And through reduced light reflection, the picture stays clear when you're outdoors, too.

Designed for style icons

Let your eyes go wide. The sleek curvature of the stunningly slim - just 8.7 mm - Xperia™ arc makes for a perfect palm-fit. This slender, strong and lightweight smartphone is built to make jaws drop.


You choose - Android Market™

Going out? Finding out? Or perhaps just chilling out? Download any application you want from Android Market™ and customize your Xperia™ arc S to make it exclusively yours.

Phone content. On your TV via Wi-Fi and DLNA

Show videos, photos and complete slideshows stored on your phone on your DLNA TV. It’s now easier than ever – no cables or over-complicated setup procedures needed. Just connect your Xperia™ arc S and your TV to the same wireless network. Then start the show from your phone.

Xperia™ arc/arc S awarded European Camera Phone 2011-2012

Sony Ericsson Xperia™ arc/arc S praised by the European EISA Awards for its 4,2' multi-touch Reality Display with Mobile BRAVIA® Engine.

Getting dark?

Dusk, dawn or just a crummy old light bulb? Sony's Exmor R™ for mobile CMOS sensor lets you capture high-quality, bright pictures and videos in poor light conditions.



Keep your fingers on the screen

Got a message? The Gesture input function lets you zoom back a reply by swiping the words you want. Start on the first letter of your word, then just drag your finger to the next letters without taking it off the keypad. With input speeds of up to 40 words a minute, your mates will never have to wait to find out what you’re thinking.

See it. Catch it. Send it.

Share that cool game scene. Or show off that text string. Just push the power off button then press “screen capture” and share your screen with your mates, or post it on your favourite social network site.
