You can praise your HTC as much as you want, but you can't change the fact that Arc was (and probably still is) one of the sexiest smartphone designs out there. In the sea of cheap ripoffs, copy/paste unoriginal designs, this is still one of the most beautifully designed phones of all time. I'm designer myself and I know what I'm saying. Some things are matter of taste, others are matter of global consensus.
Xperia Arc is among the second ones, and you think by yourself where your HTC is. Pictures says more than thousand words:
For example, to me it's just another HTC branded phone with already overused design. Another one that in few years from now will be considered as just "another" HTC phone. The one that could impress you only by hardware on steroids, and not by appearance.
And I will never buy a phone with specifications builded to maximum just to be the "flagship-est" of all flagship phones out there. I want a beatifully (and originally if any possible) designed phone, with hardware good enough to fulfill my needs.
And I'm perfectly aware that there will allways be people with addiction of having latest and most powerfull gadgets out there in given moment.
