New smartphones that able to fulfill your demand
The Acer Liquid S1 is one of the most remarkable smartphones companies of Asian. It is positioned on the margin between the smartphones and the tablets with a panel size of 5.7 inches and that looks like the Android operating system 4.2 Jelly Bea. Some of the most attractive points of this equipment are found in the front chamber wide angle to capture everything that happens around us, its powerful quad-core processor and the ability to integrate on the same device two SIM cards and thus unify the work life and personal life.
In addition, the Taiwanese company has incorporated several software enhancements to make the experience of this team is more complete. The Acer Liquid S1 can be found in the market for a price of 300 euros. The first impression of this team is not very glamorous. The use of plastic with a softer feel in the housing and general construction leave a first impression that this is a humble team, probably because of its large size and that this construction works best in smaller devices like the Acer Liquid Z.
However, after a few seconds in the hands this team starts to show its advantages. On one hand, this is a fairly light model 195 grams. The soft touch of the case is nice (although it can more easily slip out of hand) and the front glass extends over the entire surface, creating a sense of modernity. Furthermore, Acer Liquid S1 remains at a very competitive sub-centimeter thickness (9.6 mm).
Another interesting touch of design is the stripes metallic color silvery on the sides of the device, with a very attractive elongated shape. The least we liked the design, as it did with its younger brother, the buttons are on / off and raise / lower the volume. These are quite hard and not always easy to get the desired response, which makes it less attractive to the end result. What has liked is that the company has added a second housing white gift that can be exchanged on the computer.
As for the screen, this is a 5.7-inch IPS panel with a resolution of 1,280 x 720 HD pixels, good responsiveness and brilliant colors, favoring playing videos and movies. A front camera with great Angular One area that we liked in this terminal is the camera. On the one hand, we have a rear camera with a resolution of 8 megapixels, autofocus and flash., this lens has a good opening focus f2.0 (when lower this value needs less distance to cover a room or a scene).
The operation of the camera is quite thin and the images obtained are of good quality, both during day and at night or in darker rooms. In addition, the company has added several features to make the most fun and complete experience, as a way to detect smiles or more alternative modes of shooting. The functions of this camera are complemented by the ability to record video at a resolution of 1080p. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect S1 Acer Liquid is found in its front camera. The company has responded to the habitual use of the front camera for self-portraits or photos of itself with friends and family and uploads them to social networks. And its front lens with resolution 2 megapixel is wide angle of 88 degrees, which allows us to cover more people and make it easier to focus.
This camera is also capable of recording videos with a resolution of 720p. Annual power in the field of memory, we have an internal memory of 8 GB. This is a figure that can be cut into something for us to store many media files or movies in high quality. To complete this feature, you can draw a card MicroSD up to 32 GB. The Acer Liquid S1 is powered by a powerful processor ARM Cortex A7 four cores and a power of 1.5 GHz per core. This chip is attached to a memory of 1 GB RAM, which can stay somewhat short in case we use several applications simultaneously.
In our tests the mobile has responded with good fluidity both menus Android as the most popular applications and games that can be found on this system. Operating System and Applications precisely smartphone Acer integrates the operating system Android 4.2 Jelly Bean One of the most recent revisions of this system of Google. A platform with more than a million apps in its official store available, with recognized names such as WhatsApp or Line for instant messaging, Candy Crush or Angry Birds in the field of games or Evernote and Dropbox, among other names.
In addition, the Taiwanese company has also included several proprietary applications to improve the user experience. For example, we have Acer Print a tool to locate printers that are connected to the same local network and make print content directly from the smartphone. It also highlights AcerCloud. This is an online storage service typical of the Asian company to have important files stored on the network. On the other hand, we liked the application easy Hotspot, which lets you create a WiFi hotspot by simply opening the app. If you usually use this functionality, it is recommended to create a shortcut to this application on the home screen.
As for the added level of functionality, one of the most innovative features is the customization of the home screen and locks through a dedicated app, or the ability to set a certain configuration of the phone using our location, for example, a night mode to save battery. The Taiwanese company also wanted to highlight a feature that allows you to receive calls in a floating window, and continue to use other applications while you talk on the phone.
Connectivity and multimedia connections the Acer Liquid S1 hide one of the strengths of this phone. A bet that is common to many mobile manufacturers in more humble price and that is to offer the possibility of introducing two SIM cards at the same time on the computer. This function facilitates it in one line terminal our professional and our personal online. Perhaps the only but in this field is the fact that this smartphone does not have 4G connection, although it is a type of network that has yet developed enough. As for connections 3G, we have the option to connect to faster networks HSDPA up to 42 Mbps downstream and 22 Mbps upstream.
Another connection that incorporates this smartphone is GPS, but I must say that it works (at least in our case) left something to be desired, as it was lost very often and took a long time to find the satellites. It also incorporates Bluetooth to connect the device to a compatible computer as another smartphone or a wireless speaker. The connections are completed with a port MicroUSB to carry out loading and transfer files to the computer, a MicroSD card slot and a slot for headphones.
