Sony Ericsson Xperia

[Genersis]

$500?
You get electronics a lot cheaper than here, i'd be surprised if you need all that. mile:

I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace.
I love it, but i would of gone for something slightly more powerful if i could of afforded it.

I've never been a fan of Sony as a company, but it's your decision.
The original Arc was one of my options though, i can't remember why i ruled it out, though.(sorry, maybe the price?)

My other option was the Motorola Defy, of which the Motoblur scared me off, as i had heard it forced you to make a Motoblur account before use among other stuff.
I later found out this is absent in newer Motoblurs though.

Your budget SHOULD stretch further than mine. mile:
As the phone i bought is almost worth half as much there in the states.:eek:

So.......
I don't think i've helped what so ever really.:redface:

Though i do LOVE my Android phone and definitely recommend the OS at the very least.(Even if it does function slightly different on each phone)
