It belongs to Sony's large family of Xperia smartphones and tablets. This family was launched in 2008 by a joint venture initiated in 2001 between Sony and Ericsson. Sony bought Ericsson's stake in the joint-venture in 2012, and since 2012, all-new Xperia products have been branded only Sony. The Xperia arc is also known as Anzu or X12 or LT15i, LT15a... (the ending letter in the 'LT15~' names -also often written with small caps 'lt15~'-, indicates different models, in particular, related to geography.)
The Sony Ericsson Xperia arc was available in four colors: Midnight Blue, Misty Silver, Pink (Japan and South Korea), Black (US), and White and Black (South Korea and Mexico only).[6] The name of the handset refers to the arc-like side silhouette.
