Faster entertainment with the new Xperia™ arc S
Xperia™ arc is my current favourite phone and it has almost been glued to my hand for six months now. Apparently I’m not the only one finding it attractive. Xperia™ arc was awarded with EISA award for best European camera phone back in August and has also won the prestigious red dot product design award. Today, in conjunction to the big IFA fair in Berlin, we are proud to present the new Xperia™ arc S – the fastest and most entertaining Xperia™ phone to date.
Xperia™ arc S comes with a 1.4 Ghz processor compared to 1 Ghz in Xperia arc. It also contains the new photo feature 3D Sweep Panorama presented last week . I’ve tried it out and it’s surprisingly cool! It’s easy to use to. You simply sweep the camera across the objects you want to capture and while you do it you’re guided in the phones camera interface. During the sweep movement the camera will take lots of pictures and then recompute them into a 3D picture. To view the picture in 3D you connect Xperia™ arc S to a 3D TV through the HDMI connector. We’ll try to provide you with a demo on how it works here soon, although in 2D:-)
Xperia™ arc S also comes with Facebook inside Xperia™ 2.0 out of the box. The most important updates from the current version of Facebook inside Xperia™ are that you’ll now be able share games and apps through Facebook, like music from FM radio and see the latest images uploaded by your friends in your phones gallery.
At the same stage in Berlin, Sony also just presented Sony Entertainment Network – a portal to entertainment services including music and movies from the major labels and studios and many independent ones to. Sony Entertainment Network will work across many different devices and for Sony Ericsson consumers (in the markets where the service is available) this means that you’ll get access to a catalogue of over 10 million music tracks from the cloud based subscription Music Unlimited service and all the latest movie releases from the on-demand Video Unlimited service in your Xperia™ phone.
We’ll be back with more info from IFA in Berlin.
Read more about Xperia™ arc S on our website.
As always, you can find the full press release here.

Arc S and Neo V revealed
Arc S, sharing the almost same design as it’s predecessor may fool you into thinking it’s ordinary Arc, but when you go little deeper, you will certainly see the the difference. That is 1.4 GHz single chip processor, ”delivering up to 25% faster entertainment”, also “Music Unlimited” and “Video Unlimited” will be available, similar to what we saw in SE Live, sources to latest songs and movies, exclusive to Xperia phones.And one thing: every time I saw Arc S in news and such, it was white. Could this be the obvious difference to help us determine Arc S from Arc?
On the other hand, there’s Neo V.
Basically, it is the budget version of Neo, with not much differences. In fact the only difference is the camera, it’s not 8MP Exmor R, but 5MP. “Wow, what a reason to create a new model!” you may think, but this will cut the cost of the device by €50-€100!
It will bring more audience to this neat device. Also, some of the Neo V’s seem to have this “nature” graphics on the back cover (like the one above), which could, like in Arc S, help us in differentiation of the old boring Neo ( 
) and Neo V.

Update to 2.3.4 announced
With most manufacturers now rolling out the Android 2.3.4 update, those on the latest Xperia devices were left in dark, wondering if their device would ever get the Android 2.3.4 update, which was said to be released around October. You can also see this pretty much echoed here.
Maybe then, it is about time someone at Sony Ericsson woke up, and realised that an official announcement hadnt been made about it. Thankfully then, they have done exactly that, and released some new features of the newer 2.3.4. The main features:
- This brings video chat via Google Talk. Not a major feature if you already have Skype or some other video calling service in use already, except it will allow you to have video conversations though your google contacts (who probably use Skype already). Still, choice is not exactly a bad thing though.
- Another advantage is Swipe input. Now we assume that is Sony Ericsson’s own version of Swype. How good it is remains to be seen. However, I fear Swype enthusiasts will of already dumped the original Sony Ericsson keyboard for another keyboard that has Swype as part of the app.
- The update also has the ability to take a sceen capture (or a screenshot) of your phone without root or a dedicated app, which seems to be more handy for developers rather than your everyday user.
- Facebook for Xperia moved to version 2.0. New features include the ability to share apps that are already installed on your phone.
- A 3D sweep panorama app, that takes 3D panorama photos, and then you can project them onto your 3D HDMI TV from your phone (suitable phone required)
- Also, not forgetting the ability to control the phone with the recently released Live Dock.
Sony Ericsson have also uploaded this short video of the said updates:
So far we have no date set in stone from Sony Ericsson regarding when the update is due to be released, but we do have a month: October. Cunningly though, they havent said which phones will get the update either. The update will be over 3G/WIFI, and of course via PC Companion and the SEUS application.
So, what do I make of the updates? Well, there is already apps out on the Android Market that do some of the jobs that the new updates do already (including for my X10 Mini Pro), so I’m not really all that excited, so its hard for me to see why anyone with a new Xperia device will be more excited. However, saying that, most updates are good, so if this also adds features as standard (and work rather well), then there is no real reason why I wouldnt want the new update if (and when) the Xperia Pro is released. Speaking of which: October; does this ring any bells for anyone, or do I forecast another November release like they did for the Eclair update for the Xperia X10? As ever though, I would absolutely love to be incorrect, and Sony Ericsson decide to release it at the end of this month.

Good news for Friday
Hi,
We are pleased to confirm that the roll out of the software scripts for the Gingerbread upgrade for Xperia X10 has started as of today. The specifications of the upgrade can be found in the post that Rikard posted back in June. With regards to the roll-out plan, as stated earlier, this upgrade will first and foremost be made available to generic trade kits. Even if there will be some operator kits getting this upgrade – some of you will not be able to upgrade your customized version of XperiaTM X10. The roll out is phased (we have currently issued around 10% of the scripts) and they will all be made available over the next week. You will get a notification in your phone (if your kit is subject to the update) when the software upgrade is available. The software ugrade can only be installed using a computer and PC Companion software.
Regards
Mattias

Introducing two new bloggers
Hello! My name is Martina Johansson and I’m one of the new bloggers here at the Product Blog together with Cristina Porter. I’ve been sitting next to Rikard Skogberg for the past few years and have followed his work with the blog ever since it was started as the Satio Launch Blog. I’m very excited to cover for him while he is on paternity leave and I’ll do my best to keep you well informed about our products and services.
Hello everyone! I’m Cristina Porter, and with Martina, will be writing on the Product Blog while Rikard is out. Short info about me, I’ve been in Sony Ericsson for some time now, I’m a big fan of gadgets, my phone right now is an Xperia™ arc (and a PLAY, too 
), and I am really happy to be here. The Product Blog has always been an important part of what I do in Sony Ericsson, and now that I can be a part of this, I’m really thrilled! I look forward to post about new products, services, launches and listening to your comments!
Martina: I have read through the majority of the past weeks comments on the blog and, needless to say, most of them are about the recent Gingerbread update for Xperia™ X10. I’m glad to see that so many of you are happy with the update! It’s also fantastic to see that, while we’ve been a bit understaffed here at the blog, different forums have done a fantastic job listing the different kits being upgraded. If you still wonder if the upgrade is available for your kit I can recommend you to have a look at for instance xda-developers. As communicated in Rikard’ s original blog post back in March, the update will first and foremost be made available to generic trade kits. Even if there will be some operator kits getting this upgrade, some of you will not be able to upgrade your customized version of XperiaTM X10.
There are also some questions regarding the possibilities of Backup and Restore. Again, as Rikard said in the original post, the Sony Ericsson Backup and Restore client is not supported in the Gingerbread version and will therefore be lost. It could be a good idea to download a third party solution from Android Market to do a back up before you update your phone.
Now that we are two new bloggers giving you the latest news there will probably be a few changes and we would like to take the opportunity to get your input. Why don’t you tell us what kind of Sony Ericsson news you would like to read more about here on the product blog?
