Acer Liquid S2
Acer Liquid S2 is a phablet which can be placed as a direct competitor of the Samsung’s Galaxy Note. Unveiled at the IFA event in Berlin, the Liquid S2 includes a decent 6-inch screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels resulting in a pixel density of 367ppi. But that’s not all; the new model captures very detailed 4k videos due to its new-gen 13 MP shooter at the back. The video can be captured at the immense 60 frames per second and later played back in slow motion. The 13 MP camera includes LED flash, and it is coupled with a 2 MP front-facing camera. Acer Liquid S2 is built around a powerful quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor ticking over at 2.2 GHZ with 2 GB of RAM. Swiping around the OS, the phone feels very fast and responsive. It works on 4G/ LTE networks, so you will be able to use ultra fast internet (if your carrier offers it). The internal storage is 16 GB, but the phone has a micro SD slot included. You can add up to 128 GB more. Acer Liquid runs Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, powered by a large 3300 mAh battery. This model is offered in red and black. | |
