After using this mobile for good 3days here are my observations.
1. Display is big turn-off for this mobile. It eats up battery and sucks the battery backup which hardly lasts for a day. When compared to Samsung Galaxy Amoled Screen, the colors of Bravia engine emitted ones are not upto the par. They are quite shadded and the screen blinks yet times when the display is set to dim.
2. Lag when changing the orientation from Landscape to Protrait or ViceVersa.
3. Lag when tried to access Phone Dialer sometimes.
4. Camera is good but not at its best when images are copied to computer. They are just bright on mobile display.
5. Overall this mobile is good buy provided if it is your first Android Mobile. If you are upgrading from Amoled mobiles then be ready for disappointment.
Best part is i can use HDMI port to the fullest, viewing Images/Videos/play games on my samsung 40LCD and also can do video call over HDMI. Let me know if anyone has any doubts.

Neo V with front camera cheaper and better value than Arc. Yes only 5MP camera but for phone it's sufficient.

How does the adreno 205 gpu present in this cell compare to the broadcom bcm2763 gpu present in nokia 701?

Everything seems fine,but It is showing RAM of only 330 MB?? I have seen in a youtube video of this device's performance review, how can SE claim 512 MB RAM,wondering about it!! can anyone who is using Neo V please clarify about this, i ordered this but cancelled later..

Hello Guyz...can someone really suggest me whether to go for Xperia-Ray or Neo-V, as i have compared both of these and found very nominal difference that being the camera quality and internal memory.

Please tell me which one shud i opt, as the price difference is also not much and I like to invest on Phones which are future tech friendly...
