    Has a great dev community behind it too - Getting standard sony roms to update it is easy.
    I suppose it is considerably better with a 1.4ghz cpu than my 1ghz cpu and the dual core helps with gaming, yes but im talking about general speed of the phone, in and around menu's, apps and settings. My biggest gripe with my galaxy S is that access to the phone or caller menu is that its to slow to respond(the most important part of the phone) same applies for taking a picture....more often than not, ive lost my oppurtunity because im waiting for this thing to load. The GSII for eg, is lightning !

    are you talking about the sgs2 or the arc s?


    and yes, the blacks screen shat on the arc
    the arc was dull and colourless and the black was super bright and vibrant
    I think it even looks better than AMOLED

    Also the black has 2gb internal and the arc only has 320mb, which is absolutely crazy for a new "smart phone"

    each to their own, I just can't see how you say that the arc "kills it", if anything they both have features that refine them and subtract from them and are actually quite equal
    we could both argue till we're blue in the face about the merits of both of our phones; lets save that energy for apple fanbois instead, aye?

    (btw, The Arc does NOT have dual core... it is 1ghz and then in the arc S they OC to 1.4ghz)

    I don't remember saying the Arc had dual core.. Anyway the arc you viewed was most likely in low power mode ( Makes the screen very dark ) - The 2 phones have the exact same pixel density at 233px - But the arc has a slightly higher resolution and uses an led lit panel instead of the blacks panel wich I believe isn't led lit - making the arc naturally brighter.

    The 320mb internal storage is only used for messages / contacts etc - You don't need any more than that considering the phone comes with a 16gb sd - also the optimus black only has 1gb of that 2gb available for use.

    I was talking about the arc S and its 1.4ghz cpu. and yes the arc specs do look very miserly but hey if MAD16V is happy with the speed then thats all that matters.

    At the end of the day I make phone calls and take photos mainly for facebook / internet forums - And for that purpose it's fine.

    I actually used the HDMI out on it the other day - sending text messages on a 40 inch tv is quite amusing Click here to enlarge

    you didn't say it was dual core, ICE did

    so do you store all your apps on SD?

    So is anyone running ICS on any of their devices? - I can get an alpha rom for the arc - But it's not very stable atm.
