Hello everyone,since xperia arc will soon be in market. Anyone know how much is this beautiful gadget? And.... is this Arc really works like advertised?
thanks.
GN Multimedia - X10i
Already on the release date topic there are prices mentioned but in Holland it will be 480 euro according to the website of my provider.
if it is really working as advertised...i hope I will find out within a month but the lucky ones who already tested the arc where quite happy with it....

O.I see. Thanks for the information. But still wait for the products in my country. Hope it will come soon.
GN Multimedia - X10i
Well, 480 euro seems like a bargain.
www.hi.nl is my provider...
Even stronger, I renewed my contract and get one for free. Which is quite common in The Netherlands. Well, I don't complain...

I just pre-ordered it on Amazon.de, including shipping is 462 Euro. At this point I think it is an acceptable price.
Actually they dropped it quite a lot from 549Euro it was until yesterday, perhaps they are expecting to have stock of it soon and are trying to have it sold out.
I placed my pre-order for €509. I could find it slightly cheaper at some other webshops, but I'll gladly pay a little more to get it from a store I know can be trusted!
If I may suggest,may be price around $350-$400 will be better. Hohoho.... it will acceptable,because no front camera and 3g video call feature.
GN Multimedia - X10i
Sony Ericsson really doesn't lower prices because a video call camera is missing, hardly anyone in their target group uses 3G video calls!
Amazon.de can be trusted, it's reliable and almost always has the best prices from all the Amazon shops.

2-3 days, 6€ plus 0.5€/Kg
for Italy is 5-9 days and same price
I'm actually thinking about it. I'd like it for the camera but maybe it has low memory, my X10 mini keeps "complaining" about it and I'd prefer something as 512 mb .
Or maybe I'll simply wait and see if there is enough interest here on xda
Edit: wrong price
What does 512mb memory has to do when there is apps2sd. Or do i miss something?

Maybe I was the one to miss something but I got some problems typically connected with low memory: launcher pro reloading, handcent totally laggy with few threads, ui lag when I make a phone call. I'm relatively new to app2sd. I still think that on such a phone they could put a standard 512 ram, my mini was 220 €.
It's the most interesting phone for me with the Xperia Neo and I think that Sony already received a lot of bad opinions with their decision to drop android development for the "old" Xperia family, hopefully they won't do the same mistake twice.
Still not sure when arc will be released in indonesia.waiting.....

That high? It probably depends on the the part of the world. Here, its roughly for €200
I also think it depends on the region. Here it is for around 200-250$.
And it can't be more expensive than S2.

(I somehow got a funny feeling that the saying quoted above is not right,sorry for english is not my mother tongue..)

I'm still perfectly happy with my X10 with a custom firmware.

**Tip**
People outside Europe DO NOT get charged VAT. So if your thinking of getting the phone don't buy it were you live as this will have VAT from YOUR country. It would be wise to get the phone imported, as you would save yourself a lot of money as the price of the phone is £520, $821.60 or €610 WITH VAT but if you live outside Europe you can avoid some tax and get the device for £435, $687.30 or €510.47, if your interested proceed to http://www.handtec.co.uk/sony-xperia-z.html

NTT DoCoMo has officially released pricing for the Sony Xperia Z (SO-02E), due to launch in Japan on 9 February 2013. The price looks equivalent to that mooted in other parts of the world, coming in at 77,280 Yen (£545, €645, $860). Guys what do you think abot the price? Are they nominal or steep given the specs??!!

Well said, i think its gonna blow up a deep hole in our pocket for sure. Whatever Sony does perfect, they seem to mess up and lose out in the pricing factor (as they did in SL, Xperia ion, arc S) and such. They ll eventually take months to revise the price too, where in that mean time others may catch up!
It's been announced at $749 in australia (basically $750 US)... australia normally gets pretty bad pricing on phones, so there's hope it might not be too bad for the rest of the world.

im from sydney and i spoke to the company thats offering the handset for $749 but they said thats obviously subject to change and that i might be condiderably cheaper than that i remember paying $520 for the xperia s when it first was released in oz so going by that why would it be that much more expensive i doubt it would be more than $700

Japanese list prices are meaningless because they are 100% subsidy phones.
Only available through the carrier, and even if you outright purchase the handset (vs installment plan) you get a large immediate subsidy kickback.
Yes, one way or the other, they ll bump up the price!

Wasn't the Z2 supposed to go on sale in March? Does anyone have details on further Europe release dates? And where to find these when they come up?
To me the samsung doesn't have much going for it when its even higher priced than the Z2. Who would pay more for SGS5 when you can get a better device for less, with included gadgets? Possibly people who will get Samsung no matter what and can't steer away or are not informed.

There is currently one shop in Finland that has priced its pre-order for the Z2 at 672 € for all different color options. This is usually not the cheapest place to get phones from. No detailed availability date but they say its due in March.

Two things we did not like about the Xperia Z1, was the display and the camera module when it launched late last year. The price tag certainly dropped in December with the phone now being available for Rs 37,000.
At this year's MWC, Sony unveiled the Z1's successor. The Xperia Z2 seems to have addressed on the issues that plagued its predecessor. The new display as Sony puts it, is “a brand new technology integrated only into Sony Mobile displays, for increased colour depth and gradation. And the IPS gives an excellent viewing angle and accurate colours from edge to edge”.
Sony claims that camera processing algorithms have also been tweaked to deliver lower noise levels compared to last year’s offering. Additionally, there is also the much-awaited 4k video capture and background defocus and many new shooting modes. With so many improvements (even with the design and processor) and new features like Noise Cancellation, we can easily say that this year’s Z2 will easily beat the competition. What’s more interesting is that the smartphone has already hit pre-order in Europe in a number of countries.
The pre-order price is pegged at EUR 599 euros in Germany and 599 pounds in the UK, which should roughly translate to Rs 50,000 in India.

Exactly! Pay more for less, sounds like Apple's theme on smartphones. Z2 first smartphone of 2014 with 3mb of ram which i would think by today is the standard. S5 with only 2mb and HTC M8 benchmarks showing only 2mb as well. S5 water resistant for a water spill and Z2 to actually take underwater pictures, HTC will wall behind and overall non of the above. Z2 with much larger battery and better stamina modes then S5 and we all know HTC's battery track record. Of course many will say 2mb of ram is enough, sure but you trying to say 3mb is too much? LOL! More is better in this department IMO. Just not liking the idea of the Z2 all glass back and front.

And when it comes out in the States the carriers will only include the device and a wall charger. Always gettin the shaft in this "goodie" department. Remember when the HTC One came out and in Europe offered free set of Beats earbuds retailing around $100. Here in states ATT, phone and wall charger.

Who ever said anything about 3gigs of ram? And that its too much? Wut are you talking about? I think its great and sony one of the first phones to have that.
Samsung has to make some differentiation between their models so I think its a strategic decicion to have 3 gigs only on the Note 3.

Out of curiosity I just check their site(already pre-orded for $799) they have them listed for $969.99, $789.99 & price not announced. I'm guessing the no/high price were the earlier listing and should have been taken down.
I wonder if they will go down even more before release? Many of the other US sellers also lowered the price recently(including where I ordered mine-to what i'm paying, $70 less).
