The Acer Liquid E3 is one of two phones the company showed at the MWC – this up and coming gadget certainly has a few interesting tricks up its sleeve.
Let’s just say this is a selfie-taking machine
The Acer Liquid E3 feels pleasantly thin and the build quality impressed us. But let’s start with the basics. The E3 has a 4.7″ IPS LCD screen with 720p resolution, which gives it a pixel density of 312ppi, the norm for this segment. What the raw specs don’t tell is just how good the image quality of the screen is.
A flash for the front-facing camera and a “design accent” grill
If you look above the screen, you’ll notice the standard 2MP front-facing video camera and an LED flash on the opposite side of the Acer logo. That’s right, there’s a flash dedicated exclusively to selfies. Another interesting feature here are the two speaker grills – the E3 has only one speaker, the grill on the top is a “design accent.”
Going around the back we see the main camera – a 13MP shooter – with its LED flash. Below it is a button that can be long pressed to launch the camera and then tapped again to take a photo (another feature to make selfies easier). A short press on the button outside the camera can be programmed to launch any app.

The Acer Liquid E3 is powered by a quad-core chipset (CPU at 1.2GHz) with 1GB of RAM. While it runs a relatively old Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, the interface moves surprisingly fast. Acer has promised a 4.4 KitKat update for the first half of this year.
The phone has 4GB of built-in storage, but there’s a microSD card slot. On the other side of the phone are two microSIM card slots – the E3 we handled is a dual-SIM device. There will be a single-SIM version too.

The Acer Liquid E3 will carry a €200 price tag when it launches in April.
