14 DAY TRIAL // Acer announced several Android smartphones at Computex 2014 trade fair, but it looks like the Taiwanese company didn’t stop here.
Three Android smartphones have just been confirmed to arrive in Canada today, the Liquid Z3, Liquid Z5 and Liquid S1. All three are now available for purchase through Acer Canada online store.
The cheapest of the trio of Android smartphones is the Liquid Z3, which should be available for purchase for just $119 (€80) off contract. The device comes with a small 3.5-inch HVGA capacitive touchscreen display and a 3-megapixel rear camera.
Acer Liquid Z3 is powered by 1GHz dual-core MediaTek processor, 512MB of RAM and 4GB of internal memory, which can be further expanded up to 32GB via microSD card.
Next in line, the Liquid Z5 sports a much larger 5-inch FWVGA display and packs a slightly more powerful 1.3GHz dual-core MediaTek CPU.
It also features 512MB of RAM, 4GB of internal memory and microSD card slot. The Liquid Z5 has been confirmed to hit shelves today for just $199 (€135) off contract.
Last but not least, Acer Liquid S1 has been priced at $379 (€256). The phone boasts a huge 5.7-inch HD display and a 1.5GHz quad-core MediaTek processor, which is complemented by 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal memory.
All three smartphones ship with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system, which is a bit disappointing. Hopefully, Acer will offer an upgrade to KitKat for one or two of these devices.
