Engadget have reported (through connections of theirs) that a recent hands on with the Acer Liquid has been rather pleasing, but perhaps lacking in some areas…do bear in mind this would not have been the final production model that will have been reviewed.
As suspected, the handset is running a 1GHz Snapdragon that’s been under-clocked to 768MHz. And it looks like Acer didn’t go crazy with the User Experience either, pretty much staying true to its Google Android 1.6 roots, albeit with a number of additions, including: social networking integration (Facebook and Flickr contacts and photo sharing), nemoPlayer for multimedia files, DataViz for Microsoft Exchange support, and the Spinlets music streaming service. In addition, Acer has redesigned some of the widgets, including the clock and the task manager, which now includes a preview of open apps. All-in-all, it seems to be a pretty solid Android handset with a few useful additions — but as always, the verdict is out until we get our hands on one. In the meantime, hit up the read links below for a generous helping of screenshots, hands-on pics, and impressions.
