There's plastic on the screen out of the box..

(To the Reviewer) The reason you have a scratch in the screen is not that the mineral glass got scratched, but the shatter proof film got scratched. The actual screen is fine and SE even give you an extra shatter proof film in the box. But yeah, its just a factory installed screen film that can be quite difficult to see BUT it is there and thats what scratched so easily.

@gunstar1981 I definitely spotted it along the edge, but after a lot of picking, it was clearly not meant to be taken off. I'm having the same issue with the Xperia Play right now. It's super that the Arc's got some added shatter protection, but I don't think it's worth the extra scratches.

[gunstar1981]

@IntoMobile Yeah its really hard to get off off at first. When I had my x10 it was real trouble starting a corner but once you do it will pull off pretty easy. Its fitted so well that most people don't realize there is even one installed. I know when I purchase the Arc sometime next week I will be removing it as soon as I open the box. I hope SE with future devices go gorilla glass or forget about the shatter film all together as it just gets scratched too easily.

does it gets 3G?

[djamorpheus]

@miiiikeh what kind of question is that?

[miiiikeh]

@djamorpheus i mean 3G network

[djamorpheus]

@miiiikeh right, obviously it does, if you pay for it with your provider. thats like me asking you whether your computer has RAM. All phones these days are 3G capable.

[miiiikeh]

@djamorpheus well, thanks so much for the info, i was confused, i thougt it doesnt have 3G network.

Thanks.

SD card slot is not on the side...

[StefHoll4]

It's Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) not 2.2

[IntoMobile]

@StefHoll4 Yep, corrected myself at 1:00.

[TheSkittleChannel]

Get mine tuesday!

[CimInc]

I've had this phone since March 31st, and I love it!

and the ding in your ''screen'' is really only on the screen/shatter protector, which you can remove, look in a corner of the screen and you'll see what I'm speaking of.

[Pretoriance]

The phone has only 1core. And only 2.3.2. My Galaxy S has 2.3.3

[oXoAeternooXo]

@Pretoriance Are you seriously bragging about what Gingerbread version you have?

[DEVILSNAKELDS]

@Pretoriance LOL you're EPIC!!!

[ancdavis123]

@Pretoriance thats nice but the iphone 4 is better than the galaxy s

[losbergen]

@Pretoriance The ARc and the Play both have a 2.3.3 update.. I can guarantee your SGS didn't come with that stock.

[Seeeeeoooo]

U had time to change the background, but u hadnt for checking out the most important thing: which release of Android it got. Well done.
