Both are powered by Android OS, v2.3 (Gingerbread) and 1 GHz processors, Qualcomm MSM8255 Snapdragon 1 GHz processor in XPERIA Arc and Dual-core 1GHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor with Orion chipset in Samsung Galaxy S II (There could another variant of the phone, possibly powered by NVIDIA's Tegra 2 mobile processor).

Another front where Samsung Galaxy S II steals the show is with 3G data transfer speed with an enormous HSDPA, 21 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps while Xperia Arc is contend with HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps.
