The Liquid E is not a bad Android phone, but it's far from being a great one, and in today's hectic market you really need to stand out from the pack to survive.

Acer's Liquid E is not a fun-looking phone, but it has the processing performance to match its business attire. Though this phone handles Android and its basic suite of tools extremely well, our issues with the touchscreen, and the just-passable performance of the camera and battery makes it hard to recommend this Acer against the swell of other excellent Androids on offer at this time.

Das Acer Liquid e Ferrari ist ein echter Hingucker - an der roten Gehäusefarbe kommt man kaum vorbei. Schade nur, dass das Android-2.1-Handy nicht aus Metall-Elementen gefertigt ist, wie es sich für ein Topmodell gehört. Das Handy lässt sich über den großen, kapazitiven Touchscreen gut bedienen. ...

We’re not overly keen on the Liquid E’s design as it’s a little too plasticky and a tad too wide for our liking. However, if you can get past the design issues you’ll find a very capable handset with a fast processor, great capacitive screen and good all-round specification. At present, we think it’s priced a little too high in comparison to the likes of the HTC Legend, but if the price falls soon it may be worth serious consideration.

The Acer Liquid E smartphone is basically an updated version of the Liquid handset that launched at the tail end of last year. The Liquid E looks very similar to the previous model, but an update to version 2.1 of the Android operating system delivers a number of advantages and helps the handset make the most of its large, capacitive touchscreen.

Das Acer Liquid E ist gut ausgestattet, sieht nicht schlecht aus, ist vergleichsweise günstig und hat das tolle Android-Betriebssystem. Allerdings schmälert der Einsatz von viel Plastik den Qualitätseindruck.

The Acer Liquid E has a good touchscreen and offers speedy performance, but it's let down by its plasticky finish.
