Acer Liquid S100 Reviews

CNET Asia reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

..”One thing we did really like was the nemoPlayer application. This third-party player has a nice interface for image, music and video viewing. Furthermore, it allowed seamless playback of many video formats including WMV, though this was not listed in the user’s manual as a supported format. Other preloaded applications included a Twitter client, the official Facebook app and a camera effects program, to name a few. ..”

GSM Arena reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“The Acer Liquid has a 5MP camera with autofocus (there is no flash, though). The photos are very good but we’re afraid we can’t say the same for video recording..The Acer Liquid web browser is based on the same open source WebKit used in Chrome and Safari, and this accounts for the smooth user experience. Pages load quickly, and touch navigation is very fluid.”

Knowyourmobile reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“If you are a fan of larger screens, then the one here should keep you happy. It measures 3.5-inches across diagonal corners, and its resolution of 400×800 pixels ensures that everything is sharp, crisp and bright.”

theinquirer reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“The Liquid certainly is a snappy device, but although it runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon platform the processor is clocked at 768MHz rather than the full 1GHz that Snapdragon has to offer, presumably in the name of longer battery life..”

Phone Arena reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“All told and keeping the rapid development of the Android market in mind, we rate the Acer Liquid A1 at par with the Samsung Galaxy i7500 and Galaxy Spica i5700. Handsets like the HTC Hero and Motorola MILESTONE/DROID are clearly superior in terms of software. Still, if you happen to be on the lookout for a powerful smartphone and interface personalization is not your cup of tea, consider the Acer Liquid A1. It is a good option and you don´t need to break the bank to get one, because its retail price is lower than the amount you have to fork out for one of the afore-mentioned devices.”

V3 reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“At first glance the Liquid is a good looking, somewhat bulky phone; at 12.5mm thick it’s almost surprising that it lacks any kind of slide out keyboard. The curved sides, discrete keys and pleasant notification icons along the top, highlighting missed calls, messages and battery status, make it a very attractive smartphone.”

“Android works just as expected, but it feels snappier than we’re used to, despite the high screen resolution, thanks to the zippy Snapdragon processor inside the Acer Liquid..”

Pocket Lint reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“Overall the Acer Liquid is an interesting addition to the Android portfolio. It gets some things really right: the screen is a good size and resolution and responsive enough and the essentials are covered: HSDPA, GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth. For those looking for an Android device that hasn’t been tinkered with too much, then this might be worth investigating, but beware what looks like some minor software bugs.”

TechRadar reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

Not only coming in a range of colours (white, red and black, though we bet they’re called Dream white, Danger red and Velvet black when the launch happens) the chassis is also slightly different in that it’s more curved, although does bear a strong resemblance to the Windows Mobile range from the manufacturer.”

Unwired reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“Yes, it looks like that Acer’s first Android smartphone could be a winner. It combines everything a winning smartphone need these days. It comes with a unique and refreshing design, in three fashionable colors, and it features the latest and greatest hardware and software. It’s definitely a real competitor to the HTC Hero, which also features a 5 megapixel autofocus camera but sports a HVGA Android-typical touchscreen only as well as a real competitor to the Samsung Galaxy which also features a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, even with a flash, but also only supports Android’s 1.5 HVGA screen resolution. ”

CNET UK reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“We like: Attractive touch-sensitive buttons; big screen; powerful Android operating system; great apps pre-installed, with more available in the Android Market; 3.5mm headphone jack means you can use your own cans; 2GB microSD card and adaptor are included; Wi-Fi and HSDPA make for fast Web-surfing; affordable price”

Reghardware reviews the Acer Liquid S100 and writes;

“The TFT screen supports 256,000 colours rather than the iPhone’s 16m. That said it’s as bright, clear and colourful as you are ever going to want your phone’s screen to be and made a more than decent job of playing back an H.264 video of the Avatar trailer at its native resolution. Acer hasn’t seen fit to give the Liquid’s screen the same oil-resistant coating that Apple gives the iPhone or HTC the Hero. Lay all three handsets side-by-side after use and you can clearly see the difference the coating makes.”
