Compare Prices for Acer Liquid E

More Photos

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. Read full review

I just picked up a Liquid A1 for 200 notes .. lots of places selling them off at the moment. As far as I can tell there's no change in hardware and it has the same 2.1 update as this .. £200 for a full-fat Android handset is a bargain.

Why are some of the shots showing 1.6 if this phone runs 2.1?

Also, while £350 isn't exactly cheap it's definitely not high end either (hello £499/£599 iPhone 4!). You compare it to the Legend which is basically old tech kitted out in a shiny outfit but I'd argue that the Legend is actually overpriced for what you get, premium materials accepted.

Good on them for not customising it though.

@ravmania:

You'll have to admit that compared to the FAR better-specified Samsung Galaxy S (http://www.trustedreviews.com/mobile-phones/review/2010/07/21/Samsung-Galaxy-S/p1), which is currently available for under £400 sim-free, this is overpriced...

@Ardjuna

Definitely. I don't think it's worth £350 but was just making the point that £350 isn't really high end.

The Desire and Galaxy s can be had for £319 from O2 on PAYG. Now that's a bargain. My mate managed to 15% staff discount off that too.

@ravmania: is that in-store only? I can't see either handset on O2 PAYG on their site:

Android phone looks good but can crash and erase everything on the phone, so that is a minus. It also takes minutes to load some pages. Some days I don't get no text messages.

So for now, this phone has too many glitches and I regret buying it. I rate it a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10.

I just got this phone 2 days back & let me tell you that acer needs to work a lot .......I initially replaced 2 phones & the 3rd one which i have too is having some issues which include-:
1) Automatic restarting of the phone while on call
2) Battery life really sucks
3) charging takes a lot of time
4) Phone get heated up a lot when applications are used for may be 20 min at a stretch
