 Sony Ericsson XPERIA Arc Smartphone Introducing in USA in August

Sony Ericsson will be introducing its flagship XPERIA Arc Android smartphone in the U.S. market starting this August for $600 unlocked. Unfortunately, as the makers wasn’t able to secure any carrier agreements, the device may not be offered at this time with a contract for a discounted and subsidized price tag. As such, the $600 price point for this high-end handset may keep the device away from most people as the U.S. market is accustomed to subsidized pricing for cellular contracts.

Though Sony Ericsson didn’t mention what radios will be run on the handset, it could be safe to assume that the GSM handset will work on either AT&T or T-Mobile USA. It’ is not clear if Sony Ericsson will deliver two brand of the handset, each compatible with one carrier’s 3G bands.
