The current generation of Acer devices are pretty impressive, at the top of the pile is the “S” range, which is the flagship device range. The Liquid S1 phablet is a great big thing with a 5.7″ screen and specs similar to the Galaxy Note II. I’ve had …
The Acer Liquid Z3 could be called the “Liquid E2 Duo Mini” but not every manufacturer has to follow the Samsung rules. The Acer Liquid Z3 is a budget sub £100 dual core device and I’ve got one for the next few weeks. So to start off proceedings here …
Acer have announced a whole load of stuff today in Berlin, the second of which is interest to us is the Iconia A3 which is a 10.1″ Android tablet, with WXGA display (1,280 x 800), Powered with a quad-core 1.2GHz cortex A7 processor and it also has a …
The 7-8″ tablet market is a rather competitive one, with Apple and Asus at the top of the pile. The iPad Mini and the Google Nexus 7 are undoubtedly the market leaders and there are many other manufacturers trying to get in on the action, Acer, Amazon, Gemini, …
Cast your mind back to last week, I reviewed the Acer Liquid E2 and I found it to be a pretty good budget phone, with a few problems. Well Three have now got some stock and you can get them on a contract or on PAYG. Brendan from …
I do love a good hand sized tablet, which is probably why I use my Nexus 7 every single day and also why I’m probably going to get the new Nexus 7 when it appears in this country. Can an alternative manufacturers offering tempt me away from the Google …
Now and again a phone comes along that impresses me. It’s normally when the price, design, specifications, software and something special all combine to make something great. I’ve been using the Acer Liquid E2 for a few weeks now and am I impressed? Yes, but there are a …
Acer have been flogging away in the tech industry for many years now, in the mobile tech industry they are onto about their fifth generation of mobile devices and the Liquid E2 sits firmly in the mid range budget bracket. I’ve got one for the next few weeks …
Regular readers will know that I’ve ditched my long-standing Orange contract mobe and switched to a rolling monthly deal instead. The benefits are that I’m not hooked into a 2-year deal, I’m spending less because I’m not subsidising that “free” handset, and I can hop to another network …
Recently we reviewed the Acer Liquid E1. It’s got a dual-core CPU and a 5 megapixel shooter. However, the Acer Liquid E2 is now in stock and the specification has been significantly ramped up. Powered by a quad-core 1.2GHz CPU, this has Android 4.2, 4GB internal storage, a …
There’s a lot being said about the new Acer Liquid E2 right now (which the boys at Expansys will be selling for a mere £179.99) but this is the earlier Acer Liquid E1 Duo. The “Duo” in the name is kinda revealing – this will accept two standard-sized …
We’re reviewing (perhaps better late than never) the Acer Liquid E1 at the moment, so to compare I took a look at the new E2. This has an improved spec and will arrive in the next day or two at Expansys. They’re doing it SIM-free, so no contracts …
If you’re thinking of switching to Three then listen up, because they’ve announced that three new handsets are now available or coming soon. First is the Samsung Galaxy Mega we spotted yesterday, but Three will also be carrying the Liquid E2 from Acer too. We got confirmation on …
Large phones are becoming a thing nowadays. With every manufacturer jumping on the bandwagon. What used to just be a niche market product made by Samsung has spiralled to what we have today. Acer have gone and announced the latest in the Liquid range, the S1. Which marks …
Acer UK have announced that they are continuing their £20 cashback deal on purchases of the Acer Iconia B1 8GB and 16GB models, making the final price £79.99 and £99.99. If you’re after a cheap basic tablet then the B1 might be the one for you. Cashback is …
Times are hard. Just last week I had to downsize my second home to a condo in the Caribbean. Ohhhh the shame of it. If you’re looking to switch to a SIM only deal and get yourself a decent cheapo smartphone, have a look at the Acer Cloud …
Acer this afternoon have announce six new devices. Some are Android tablets and some are Windows 8 devices. Lets have a look at the Android tablets first, Acer have announced two devices with two variants, so four in total. They have announced the Iconia A1 and the Iconia …
The already super cheap Acer Iconia B1 is now about to get even cheaper. You can get £20 Cashback on the Acer Iconia B1 throughout May. We haven’t managed to get one for review yet, I can’t comment on how good/bad it is. You’re really into the “should …
Last week we covered the availability of the Acer Liquid E1 Duo from Expansys. I liked the idea of it as I have a bit of a thing about Dual Sim devices. Well Acer have now actually announced it’s successor already. The Liquid E2 comes in either single …
We’ve reviewed it and we’ve mentioned last month that it was down to less than £200. Now it’s even cheaper with the price dipping down to just £179.99, and that includes the delivery and everything. The handset will, of course, arrive unlocked and has a 4.3” IPS 1280×720 …
Once again another Dual SIM phone appears on the market and my imagination runs riot. The prospect of not having to carry two phones around all day gets my temperature racing. The fact it is made by Acer also means it will probably be well made, in the past I’ve had my …
Dual SIM phones are pretty clever, they use two SIM cards, one for voice and normally one for data. The Acer Liquid Gallant Duo does quite a bit more though, with Ice Cream Sandwich the options to control exactly which SIM did what where plentiful. I reviewed the …
Seven inch tablets are so last year. This year everyone wants an eight inch tablet or else. Judging by the Note 8.0, the iPad Mini and now this the 7.9″ Acer Iconia A1-810. The Acer Iconia A1-810 has appeared on French retailers “Rue Du Commerce” website showing specs …
Got £200? Good stuff, because you can always donate to keep us on the air 🙂 If you don’t fancy dishing out money to a worthy cause you can perhaps have a look at the Acer Cloud Mobile for £199.99. It’s got rave reviews and has a gorgeous …
Can you remember the Acer S500 Cloud Mobile? Well I can, I reviewed one last year and it was a great little phone with a great spec, a great screen, amazing sound quality, a decent camera and now it has a great price. Expansys are one of the …
I really liked the Acer Cloud Mobile when I had one to review (which you can read here), it was a speedy little critter. With a great 720p screen and a really nice camera. But lack of network uptake and just general lack of interest in Acer phones …
There is something appealing and somewhat geeky about a phone with two SIM cards in it. Having your work and your personal SIM cards in one phone is the main use for this sort of phone. When I tested one out a while back I used a Giff …
Acer have been making tablets for a few years now and their most recent announcement at CES will be their third generation 7″ tablet. With each successive generation there is a worrying trend. Lowering prices. Their previous tablet the Iconia A110 was priced to compete with the Nexus …
We reviewed the Acer Cloud Mobile in the summer and I found it to be a great device. It was one of the fastest feeling phones I have ever used and the screen was gorgeous. At 4.3″ and 720p it made for a very crisp display. You can …
I have a thing about dual SIM phones. When I recently reviewed the Acer Liquid Gallant Duo I was amazed at the implementation of the dual SIM. Being able to choose between SIMs made my daily swapping of devices and SIM cards a whole lot easier. Expansys have …
I’ve had the Iconia A510 a few weeks now and I’ve used it pretty extensively. Mainly because I took it on holiday with me at the end of November. Now it’s time to bring you the full review. Nut first the good and bad points of the device. …
The 10″ Android tablet market just got dumped on its head recently. As with the other current Nexus devices Google are offering them direct to customers rather cheaply. This move makes selling a tablet difficult as the other OEMs have to cut corners to keep the prices low. …
The whole time I have had the Iconia A110 I keep looking at my Nexus 7 and wondering how it handles what I’m testing. It has been a difficult one to review, but here we go. First of all my good and bad points: Good points Tegra 3 …
The Acer Iconia A110 has sort of arrived on the scene with barely an announcement. It was up for pre-order on Ebuyer for a while and then it just suddenly came into stock. A few weeks later and we have one here on our desk. Hailed by some …
I’ve been using the Acer S500 Cloud Mobile as my main phone for a few weeks now and it’s time to bring you the full review. My initial conclusion was that the Cloud Mobile was a great phone that seemed like it was going to be let down …
Acer have made a few nice looking phones recently, the other week we looked at the dual SIM equipped Liquid Gallant Duo and I was very impressed overall. So when I found out they were going to send us their flagship device the Cloud Mobile I was a little …
Are you thinking about getting a Samsung Galaxy Camera? Are you at a loss what to do with it? Well Samsung have made a nice little inspirational video showing you what you could do with their upcoming Galaxy Camera. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qv57H0LpHUo Not that I need telling what to do …
A few weeks ago we got the dual sim Gallant Duo in for review from Acer and ever since I have been using it to try and find what’s good and what’s bad. In our initial impressions I was impressed with Acer and their handling of the dual …
For a while using a phone with two sim cards in has been a bit of a holy grail for me. I could use my normal sim for making calls and my Giff Gaff SIM for my data requirements. Sounds fairly straightforward but various manufacturers have tried their …
News has reached us that the new Acer Cloud Mobile will be available from 3rd October directly from Expansys. The new 4.3″ device is set to ship with Android 4.0 Ice Cream sandwich and is powered by a 1.5Ghz dual core Snapdragon processor. With 16gb internal storage and …
