In terms of quality, users usually look for newer models from industry-leading, trusted brands. It is just hard to trust a new game player with their technical know-how. But bravely facing the odds, Acer has come up with a competent smartphone that puts them in competition and on the limelight.
Check the Built
Looking like a PDA at first glance, this smartphone will surely fit a hand. The easy to carry phone has dimensions of 118.6 x 63 x 12mm making it slim but slightly bigger than an average smartphone. Its slim shape adds a very light feel to its 130g weight.

The black glossy finish of the phone's casing is made sleeker with the 3.8 inch high definition but resistive touch screen. It displays 65,000 colors that give clear and vibrant images. And with the smartphone's purposefully located buttons and jacks, you're sure to enjoy its functions.
It has a 3.5mm audio jack on the top side; a reset hole, a camera button and volume rocker on the right; the power button on the left and a miniUSB port at the bottom. You will find the LED indicator, proximity and light sensors at the top of the screen while the 5 megapixel Auto focus camera with LED flash can be found at the back together with the loudspeaker.
See What It Can Do
Judging the mobile phone on its look alone would make you miss a lot. Though the overall look of the phone already screams functionality, there's still more to that. The smartphone has the necessary features of a regular mobile phone like messaging and calling capabilities. But it also functions as an all-in-one multimedia device, a PDA and personal computer too.
Men have a low threshold for distraction. They are delicate. They are made nervous by having to do more than one thing at a time. They feel frazzled and angry if they have to answer three phone calls, and have a hard time settling back to work after the trauma. Women, on the other hand, develop the skill of doing many things at once. They tuck the phone in between their shoulders and their ears, hold a baby on one hip, stir a pot on the stove, all the while thinking about an idea for a story. They don’t think it’s unfair to have to do this. They think it’s normal.

The phone's capacity to run applications in a breeze with its Snapdragon Qualcomm® 8250 1 GHz mobile phone processor, Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system and 512MB read-only memory that is expandable up to 32GB more via MicroSD card has made this phone not just smart but also exciting. The HSDPA/HSUPA and Wi-Fi connectivity provide users with high-speed Internet by Internet Explorer 6 for a web browser. And with 7.2 Mbps downlink, 5.76 Mbps uplink rates we are really talking about fast processing. It runs applications and websites simultaneously without any delays.
