Clove.co.uk has announced it will be stocking two of Sony Ericsson’s brand new Xperia handsets. The Xperia Arc S will be arriving tomorrow on September 30 while the Xperia Pro will land on October 6.
You can already get both on pre-order through the site.
At £349.99 the Xperia Arc S is available in white or a snazzy fade-away blue, measures only 8.6mm thick and weighs a mere 117g. Android 2.3 Gingerbread is the operating system of choice here.
Inside it comes fitted with a 1.4 GHz single core Scorpion processor on a turbo charged version of Qualcomm’s famous Snapdragon chipset (MSM8255T), which also features an Adreno 205 graphics processing unit (GPU).
On top of that there’s 320MB of user-available storage space and 512MB of RAM, microSD cards are also supported up to 32GB and an 8GB card ships with the handset.
The camera setup is particularly impressive with an 8-megapixel primary capable of 3D sweep panoramic capture in 720p quality. It also supports video calling.
Visuals are put through a 4.2-inch LED-backlit LCD capacitive touchscreen with a pixel density of 233 pixels-per-inch (ppi) and running Sony’s Mobile Bravia engine.
Meanwhile, the Xperia Pro will cost £306 for its slide-out Qwerty keyboard charms - that's actually a slightly higher price tag than we previously thought.
The keyboard makes it a bit heavier and thicker but the screen is equally impressive as its Arc S cousin. It uses the same Bravia engine and 480 x 854 pixel resolution but is slightly smaller at 3.7-inches, giving a pixel density of 265ppi.
The Xperia Pro is also Gingerbread-powered and has the same camera setup, memory and card support as the Arc S. Processing power comes from a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon.
