hi all
i recently asked a retailer about the price for the arc and acr S recently ( dunno why but o have the urge to do so and i did ) he said the price for ARC is RM1000 and ARC S is RM 1300 which is surprisingly cheap ..and i do love the phone ..never seen anyone used it but i looks gorgeous in videos ...i just bought a galaxy ACE about a month ago and i am planning to change one at the end of the year at december ...so should i get the arc ? i know it have some crappy processors and low ram but i want to hear some opinion for the users ...is it worth the RM 1000? and i do expect the price to drop to RM800 at the end of the year ...
Look wise, the arc is top tier, hands down. I guess it really ties down to what you expect out of your phone. Personally, a phone to me is to remain a phone and not a mini laptop, so the specs of the Arc S is good enough for me. It's fast enough to do everything that I want; stream videos, browse the internet, call/email/text etc. All those hype about new phones, dual cores and etc, what is the purpose exactly? It loads a page faster in 1 sec? Ridiculous. Didn't mean to rant haha, but yeah. If you want a phone that stands out and looks good and is good for everyday use, I would recommend getting the Arc/S. Not to mention, the Camera is awesome.
Hey tohno,nice seeing u here brick guy. Im using arc s rite now n lovin it. Anyway i bought mine from a guy who just used it for two months at rm900. Its used but the guy is new with android n havent mod anything yet so i think its fair if i said that it come fresh from the shop

I say it doesn't worth it, now you have new Sony phones, hTC and many.

A medium-high performance phone, with excellent camera and versatile multimedia functions, paired with large high resolution phone for low price? Damn yeah it's worth it!
Buy Arc S
Buy Arc S ...
Great phone ...
Bought one on the launch date itself ...
Xtremely happy
sweet! then i think i will eye for the arc s then!
oh hi malice!
I bought mine 'cause it was on Special + 50€ cash back. So i got it for 350€ in last July.
Love it except the screen which is too weak. And now it is quite weak for new apps.
I'm looking to get a Nexus in a couple of month. But since i unlocked my bootloader I really enjoy it more.
This is definitely not a waste of money.

Screen is strong enough and there are no new apps that I am aware of that require a certain screen strength...

My screen has a broken line on the left side. It has been always carried in a leather holder.
Try to play GTA3 with the arc.
It is a good phone but it is (a bit) outdated.

Please don't buy neither Arc nor Arc S, you will face some very depressing problems with these phones, as Arc user I don't suggest this phone because of very poor quality of the phone. You maybe extra careful with your phone but you won't avoid housing crack, scratched screen and body damages. Housing crack appears on almost all Xperia Arc phones, as for screen I would say, its very bright and high quality but, it is not gorilla glass, and you can scratch it by mistake for example when cleaning, as I did. As for body I would say that design is very sexy but you will notice small dots around the screen, and on the back panel, paint gets peeled. My advice, hold the phone in vacuum or wait for Xperia S!

Remove the shutter proof thing.
Did it 3 months ago and no scratches!
@ OP:
If you want it, get it now!
By the end of the year it will be totally outdated, well, it is already somehow.
Looking forward to the Galaxy S III or a Sony with Snapdragon S4 as the Arc gets too slow after a few days of uptime

Great phone!
This phone is great! In poland he cost 1300 PLN, this is not too big price for that phone. He have great camera (720p Video [i record a video with friends and that camera have really good quality, better than both normal cameras]).
I did, I removed but as I said scratched with cleaning cloth

Really? I didnt know...cause i have dropoed my arc so.many times...i have slept over it, i aint using a screen protector, still the screen is fine! Its quite durable mate! The only problem is..it gets really slow sometimes! So even i wouldn't suggest to purchase arc. But i still love it <3:-D
Fuel The Droid©
well i am actually of buying this phone cause of the relatively cheap price...i just got my ace just a month ago but seeing the arc's cheap price i just can't resist to buy it...and by the end of the year i think arc s will be below RM1000 by then it's a sure buy ..i cant afford high end phones ( expensive ones at least ) like S2 ( it's too common!! ) , sensation etc ...
If I were you, I would buy LG Optimus 2X instead. It has Tegra 2 chipset and a dual-core processor. That makes it much better phone. Cons are it doesn't have as good camera, and the screen is a bit smaller(4.2 > 4.0).
Here in Switzerland it is even cheaper.
I've my arc s for close to 5 months and I do not regret it. It's camera is one of the best among the smart phones for the price of it. When my friend who own the iPhone 4 took the same night scene with my arc, the arc's capture the scene very well, not too bright or too dark -- like what the iPhone does.
Responsiveness is reasonably fast even though it's not rooted. Depending on how you handle the phone, mine is still scratch-free and beautiful. No cracks. The factory screen does trap specks of dust quite easily, but this can be avoided if you apply another matte filter over it.
The phone is light and still able to fit into my pocket despite it's 4+ inch screen. The big screen makes it comfortable to browse webs, watch videos and play games.
What I find a nuisance in the arc is the small internal memory capacity, which means you'll have to be selective in the apps you store in the phone.
Definitely worth buying & keeping if you're a light to medium-usage user.
Good luck in your choice!

So I have eagerly been awaiting for this product to come out for the general public...I was ay home depot the other day and saw this product coating on a plunger and they had a bucket of water and let me tell you...the water doesnt roll off the plunger it shoots off like some sort of wizardry. This video shows an iPhone that was spayed on only the OUTSIDE and was made waterproof for 30 minutes. I honestly think this is going to be a huge game changer...I am in no way shape out form affiliated with neverwet its parent company or any other company for that fact. I'm an engineering student and thought this stuff is amazing.

That's extraordinary. I wonder if it's available now? Also, can it be removed if you spray it on a surface?
Its not publicly available..im trying to get some through the company I work for since we are a high end company and its only available to businesses. Its supposed to be out for public use "by mid 2012" so hopefully sooner rather than later
They have Liquipel. Its just a hydrophobic coating on outside AND inside. It my not shoot off, but its supposed to be very water resistant. Its a bit expensive though. For me, the cheapest one is $59
http://www.liquipel.com/
Wow that's freakishly amazing! Especially the Hershey's chocolate syrup test!
Imagine spraying your entire car with that stuff! I wonder how long it would last?
If its heat resistant it could be sprayed on pots and pans and never have to worry about food sticking to them again.

Just browse YouTube...they have videos of it next to rain x and it makes rain x look like a total joke....you can coat anything with this stuff. And you wont have to ship your phone to them...you just buy it and apply..plain and simple and it dries in 20 seconds. Seriously I was amazed when I saw jt at home depot last week...you can buy plungers and they come pre coated. I first learned about this product around November. I can go on everything from cloths to glass to electronics. And it handles strong bases and acids and salt water....imagine being able to go scuba diving with your gs2 or anything electronic...they have a video were a laptop it sitting in a Container of water and they are typing on the laptop
I meant to reply to this earlier, but I am ecstatic for this product! I was just thinking about how I wish I had it yesterday so I could listen to music in the shower! I wonder how easy it will be to apply to a GS2? and my shoe game will be insane! Imagine having clean shows forever, spraying it in your car like he said, and it will reduce crap on your phone, like you will just be able to wipe the oil off.! Urgh soooo many uses Damn, i thought you were saying its out already :/
It does say for the Rubbermaid plunger that you shouldn't touch it because body oils will degrade the performance of the coating! What good is coating a phone if you have to reapply every couple days??
Why would you need your phone in the shower to listen to it? Buy some speakers. And whoever said put it on pots and pans, I wouldn't do that.

They can already make outside materials that are water proof. How often do you touch the componenets inside your phone? If you treat the whole phone with this, and only touch the screen (waterproof) and the case (plastic thus waterproof) then there you go. I would worry about losing the ability for external media though, although to be honest i've washed jeans with sd cards in the pockets and they worked fine so who knows.
Very interesting product. Although I trust a very high quality sealant for whomever was talking about this application for cars. From the looks of it, this leaves a matte coat, when you're detailing a car (like me) you want to leave a shining coat lol.
Unless matte's your thing, or you've got vinyl wrap on your vehicle.
It would work great for a minibath! Sorry it had to be done. Carry on.

I feel like no one ever posts good stories and there is always a negative tone so I Wanted to post about some very sad news from last night.
I dropped my naked S3 last night from a fourth floor balcony onto large stone gravel flat on the screen.
I watched in horror as my first ever drop was definetly the last one that my phone would take. After slowing going down the stairs, and even slower picking the phone up I found it on, working, and fully funtional. There is a decent size spider webbed crack on the screen but for how far and how badly it landed I couldn't believe it.
This was the final testominate on how sick these phones really are. Like many here I am a long time Iphone switcher and I am never looking back. All the BS about samsung build quality is definetly put to rest.
As upset I am to have ****ed up this beautiful phone I am equally happy and impressed on how well it survive.
Good job Samsung. :good:
Great on you for seeing the bright side, and also, thanks for sharing.

Yea Idk how I feel about this. Other videos I've seen have made it seem almost impossible and I don't have the steadiest hands haha
Very impressive to see the extent of the damage from a 4 story drop. I would have guessed just about any phone would nearly explode from such a fall on a hard surface. You actually could very well replace the screen like mentioned above and be ok.
my phone (with a spigen hard case) fall to ground first time, the screen is fine, but I can't power on it anymore...
sent it to LG service, said need 3 days to check what's wrong..
my Nexus 5 fall to ground many times, and working well. and Nexus 5x just one... LG quality now is really bad.
Well, LG might say that user handling of devices nowadays it's very bad.
Hard cases suck for drops. They accept the drop instead of deflecting it like softer ones do. Just my opinion, buy a better case

You don't think anyone dropped their Nexus 5 and it broke too? It's just luck if it breaks or not, as with any phone in a drop.
My 5x fell onto tiled floor with no case or screen protector. Barely even a scuff on two of the corners. Good job LG!
BTW you shouldn't expect a case to help in a drop when it's not designed to help in a drop, isn't advertised to help in a drop, nor was it ever publicly tested in drop tests.
If a case doesn't have these things then it is for scratch protection, minor bumps, and aesthetics only. Don't be fooled by empty marketing promises. It's easy for any case or SP to type some words on their JPEGs "super resilient, shock and explosion proof, 9H hardness" but that doesn't mean it's true or was ever actually tested. They just want your money.
Couldn't the thread have been titled, "First unlucky drop and no power.." or something like that. Ya just gotta throw in the dig of "bad quality LG" as if it's their fault you dropped the phone. I just don't get all these threads that don't really ask questions so much as to get eyeballs on a negative depiction of a very capable phone. And I'm just as guilty, I read this crap.
Me too Bobby. I keep feeding the trolls. I can't help it. I feel bad for them.
Thing is it was happening in the 6P threads too. I had one for about a week until I realized it was just too large a device for me and I was definitely going to drop and break it due to the size and slippery back. "Super lag on the 6P", "awful camera", speakers terrible" things like that just the same as here. Some of them just Sammy fans and some iPhone heads but they came out of the woodwork. And same here, "5X-Hugely disappointed" over 45k views. I mean who goes on just to post something like that instead of taking the time to return the device and research another one? It just makes me wonder motivation.
Back on topic, I dropped my phone once and not a scratch. It was on the carpet, does that count?
The only thing lacking quality in this situation is your grip.
Mine survived a 4 foot drop to concrete.

Me three.
I have to say -- I always try to assume the best in terms of motivation, and just chalk up someone's different experience to use case, app selection, etc. But my 5X is so fast, and multitasks so well, that I have to question motivation as well.
today LG called me ... said the mainboard damaged....
change a new mainboard is expensive, so I 'd better to buy a new one

That, I'm sorry to hear. Somehow in this day and age they can make a phone almost indestructible. At least from a toilet drop and 5 feet onto cement.
my 5 fell into the grand canyon, I wonder if the screen broke. still rang but no one answered. sad. love my new 5X

You came here to promote your thread that was create after this one ? very nice
I got my phone for 200 bucks so what i'm saying next is with the price in mind:
To be honest, with the included cover the scratch issue is not that big of a deal
The bend test is an over kill. just don't sit on your phone.
This phone rocks for the price. (I'll say better than my galaxy s7) The only thing i miss is the faster lens on the s7.
The people who take JerryRigEverything's "durability tests" seriously are simply put, dumb. The videos he make are for pure entertainment purpose. Who lights up their phone's screen with a lighter? Are there still people who wouldn't protect their screen with a protector anyway? And seriously who the heck tries to bend their phone in half even if you're a rough user. Dumbness is taking over the people.
I own Honor 6X from about a month, I have about 10 hours SoT daily on my phone. With that kinda usage, I have 0 scratches so on my screen or back so far. And of course no freakin "bends" like it's a metal ruler lol.

There's no excuse for the s-h-i-tty glass used on the Honor 6x. None of the 50 phones he tested had the glass scratch at level 3 or 4. While I somewhat agree with the bending thing, the glass they used on this phone is pure crap.

It's not really about buying a screen protector or not. It's about the inferior quality of the glass Huawei chose to use on this device. It's the worst ever tested out of 50 phones and it's worse than last years 5x. I literally have a drawer full of phones and this is the first test that actually persuaded me to go out and buy a tempered glass screen protector. I never have felt the need before and the screens on all of my devices are still pristine.

AGREE I DON'T TAKE HIM SERIOUSLY TOO.
But, you need to admit the fact that what ever be the day to day use of a device
there is that one day where things are not in your favor and S#!t Happens.
So, understanding the worst case scenario is not a crime but a reminder what you should expect rather.
CONSIDER:
In my **** day i accidentally drop my phone on the street while getting of a bus in INDIA and a car runs over it
now since JERRY DOES A BEND TEST BOTH THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE PHONE you will have an idea of what kind of damage you should be expecting and
if you should dive in to push your phone away
or
let it be it can handle a car running over it
and
i can get it back with no problem

Why argue and waste time rather lets just ask "jerry rigs everything" to throw a google pixel and an Honor 6x under a car. Or lets do it by ourselves but someone will will need to sponsor you to get a free phone to break so yeah we cant pretty much do that can we. HONOR aint sending us a free phone anytime soon so lets see what people do when they get a free one like jerry who practically breaks the phone.
THEN WHY DO I WANT THIS ARGUMENT TO CONTINUE ?
Because my SAMSUNG E500H could manage drops like i dropped it while trying to get a clear snapchat post in a DJ snake concert it practically was being run over by people but it survived with a crack on the digitizer and leaving the LCD un harmed.
Now my HTC 526g+ that had a crappy but decent tempered glass on broke in a simple fall when i missed my pockets and drooped the phone in the METRO.
I have been a person with slippery hands when it comes to phones so it helps me know
like if i got an IPHONE 4s ill cover it in a pillow
if its an OBI WORLDPHONE i will first recollect when was Android 4.4.4 awesome and re-evaluate life's decisions.
if its an honor 6x ill buy a higher quality TEMPERED GLASS and a decent quality PROTECTIVE CASE.
( METAL BODY ALLOWS FOR SOME SERIOUS DAMAGE INTAKE ).
if it is an GOOGLE PIXEL then i can call F U C K IT and throw it screen side down under a car phones internal will be safe but screen might break.

Im not sure if you are trolling or serious. Let me tell you something, a phone dropped is not similar to a car running it over. Also ive had 4 phones since the last 5 years, first was a blackberry which screen cracked from a simple fall on the street. Second was my galaxy s3 which is still in good condition despite it falling over a million times, and not to mention i still use it from time to time until this day. My newer galaxy s6 which i had a case and a tampered glass protector got its screen fully broken when it fell less than a meter high. Should we now say that samsung flagship device is really good quality (ex s3) or very bad (ex s6)? The truth is its all about how the phone fell, the angle, the type of surface there are too many variables. Now im using my honor 6x without any cover and it is still as brand new. Even though it fell maybe 2 times it still doesnt have a scratch. So chill with these videos they are nothing scientific and only for entertainment

I can only test my phone by droping it from a height and then fixing problems right and if we do this process over and over again we get a durable phone right.
SADLY, companies cannot spend that much on just making test models and break them over and over again to make a durable phone that costs more than a kidney
ALSO
Droping an object is not a standardized test and cannot be repeated without minimum human error.

You're right, i wanna get a glass screen protector on top of the plastic one included but I'm too lazy, regardless it's still great for the price range.
