Acer formally launches Intel-based Liquid C1 and two other smartphones in SE Asia

Both the Liquid E1 and Liquid Z2 are aimed towards different sides of the market. As such, they each have a different set of features. While they do have a number of things in common, such as dual SIM card support and having Android 4.1 Jelly Bean as the default operating system, their similarities stop there.

The Acer Liquid E1 is equipped with a 4.5-inch qHD IPS touchscreen display, comes with 1GB RAM, 4GB internal storage, and has a 5-megapixel camera with Burst Mode option. It uses an interesting dual-speaker design and has at least one unique software feature in the form of “Float Caller” which according to Acer makes a pop-up notification for calls when users are using the screen for something else — like watching a movie, playing a game, and so on.

Meanwhile, the Acer Liquid Z2 has only entry-level specs. It has a 3.5-inch screen, a 1GHz processor, 512MB RAM, and 4GB internal storage. It also has a unique software feature of its own, called “Quick Mode” which basically turns the user-interface into an even more user-friendly one. Acer officially described it as a “feature phone emulator.”

Both the Acer Liquid E1 and Liquid Z2 will become available starting April as well, priced at 10,990 Pesos ($270) and 4,990 Pesos ($122), respectively.
