at least it is short

Why did they do this? Apart from to make money of course...
It does not have the low budget raw scary impact of the first. It does not have the relentless pace of the evil high tech second. And if you had seen neither and saw this one first, you would wonder what all the fuss is about.
It does have more humor. It manages to fit at least one innovative if rather long chase scene into the short run. There is a plot, if you assume parts of it ended up on the cutting floor. They actually get some space to act (except T-X, who has just one-liners and wicked good looks), even Arnold has some reasonable variety to perform.
But, please don't let him come back. The third adds nothing we needed.
