Yesterday Acer announced a new small Nexus and Kindle Fire competitor. It is called the Iconia A110 which follows on the A100 we reviewed a while back. Acer have made a nice range of tablets of the years and hopefully this one will continue the trend. The spec …
Now this is a rather interesting and surprisingly draconian story about Google throwing their weight around. The story goes that a phone collaboration between the Acer and Alibaba was shelved at the very last minute! Google and Acer had been planning to launch the ‘CloudMobile A800’ smartphone together …
Expansys have put up pre order pages for the Dual Sim Acer Gallant Duo in either white or black. We posted the Press Release for the two Gallants earlier on today. It seems like an interesting device with a decent price. Acer have really stepped up this year …
Dual Sim phones have never really come to anything. They always seem to be a good idea but never really deliver. Back in the days of Windows Mobile they existed and didn’t really take off and more recently Viewsonic have released a few under specced dual sim devices, …
Earlier on in the year Acer announced a few different Android phones. The highest spec phone announced was the the Cloud Mobile. It is going to be the first device to use the new Acer Cloud service. It is also probably the highest spec Acer I have ever …
Earlier on in the year Acer announced a budget Ice Cream Sandwich device called the Liquid Glow and it was due to be released in a selection of colours. Retailer Expansys now has the Black and White models in stock and the price is definitely a wallet friendly …
Acer’s A110 tablet could be an interesting alternative to the beloved Nexus 7 tablet. The spec is identical with a 7″ screen, Tegra 3 CPU and Jelly Bean confirmed to be on the way. With 8GB and priced at £179 at launch it doesn’t look too different. Where …
If you own an Acer Iconia tablet life will soon start to get better for you. Buried deep within the Acer support pages a table has appeared showing the update schedule for the A100, A200, A500 and A501 tablets. One slight problem though. It is the US section …
Acer announced some new devices here at MWC and one of them is the strangely-named “Liquid Glow” running Android 4.0 / Ice Cream Sandwich. Last year we saw the Acer Iconia Smart which never did make it into the UK even though I tried everything possible to get …
Acer are really pushing for good things at MWC next week. They have today announced another handset that they will showing off next week. The Acer Liquid Glow is going to be a WVGA display type device, it will have a 5 megapixel camera, LED flash, panoramic capture, …
Last week we mentioned how an as yet unannounced device from Acer had won award. Details here. Well now the Acer Cloudmobile has appeared on video. Albeit a foreign video, with foreign people talking foreign. But hey you can see what’s going on with the device. Via – …
It seems last week quite a few companies received iF awards for design. Even Acer won an award. For a product that doesn’t really exist yet. The Acer Cloudmobile won an award for “outstanding achievement in design”. So what is it you may ask, but all they really …
Acer are now listing the Acer A200 in either Titanium Gray or Mettalic Red for just £289.99. The tablet has a 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 Dual-core CPU, Android 4.0 (ICS), 2 megapixel camera and a 10.1″ screen running at 1280×800. This price is just a touch cheaper than …
Come on, it’s not the end of the sales yet. Look at the guys at DFS, they only have one week in the year when their sale isn’t on 🙂 Anyway, the people at Very are having a sale. They’ve reduced the price of many Acer tablets… .. …
On Friday, Acer officially announced a new tablet. It is the Iconia A200. It will be their 2nd generation tablet which will ship with Ice Cream Sandwich (if you order it next year). The spec for this tablet seems to point to one thing. That is that Acer …
Acer have announced the Liquid Express phone. It looks a lot like previous model in the Liquid range. Two things are different though. The Liquid Express has Gingerbread and it also has … NFC. So I’m suddenly interested. Here is a bargain basement phone that appeared on both …
We have recently received an Acer Iconia A100 and boy what a great device it is. So enough of the introduction, lets get down to the nitty gritty. Hardware The Acer Iconia has a 7″ Capacative screen, Android 3.2, Tegra 2 chipset, 8GB built in memory and a …
So Motorola are making their comeback and they are using the Razr name to do it. This phone is coming to multiple networks and brings a smorgasbord of figures to the table including the slimmest frame and also being made out of bulletproof material (Disclaimer Coolsmartphone do not …
If you’re looking for a cheap Android handset it’s definitely worth checking out this Expansys page. They’ve knocked up to 80% off and every handset in the sale has now dropped to just £79.99. That includes the Liquid E, Liquid, beTouch E110 and Acer Tempo. All handsets are …
Another handset arriving on the Orange “coming soon” pages is the Acer C6 Liquid Express. It’s a fairly dinky thing, measuring in at just 115×60.8×13.4, but it doesn’t hold back on specs. Powered by Android 2.3, it has a 3.5″ LCD HVGA screen, 5 megapixel camera with flash, …
The Acer Iconia A500 tablet was released just a month ago but already seems to be doing well enough to warrant a 16GB version too. It’ll retail for around £349.99, which is obviously a little cheaper than the existing 32GB model. The press release below shows Android 3.0 …
Android device manufacturers have pretty much stuck to the standard design, that is a touch screen 3.5″-5″ with a few buttons dotted around the screen. Over the years we have seen various devices with a physical keyboard such as the G1, Motorola Milestone (Droid) or the HTC Desire …
With Acer knocking out the TV adverts there’s good news for new and existing owners – Android 3.1 will be coming to the Iconia A500 device as soon as next month. Acer have got some pretty big ad-spots on TV right now, and it’s becoming a bit of …
The Acer Iconia W500 Tablet we covered last month has now got a keyboard-less brother running Android for £391.66 (ex VAT), which works out at £469.99 with the VAT. The A500 tablet is powered by Android Honeycomb and features a 10.1″ WXGA (1280×800) screen, 1GB DDR Ram, microSD, …
Acer have announced a new Android smartphone running Froyo (Android 2.2) which has a QWERTY keyboard and looks very much like a BlackBerry. Available in March 2011 with a price still to be announced, the E210 will be on sale in Silver or Black. Full press release below: …
Acer have shown off and published a press release on a new device which looks like a large phone / small tablet featuring a 4.8 inch screen, 1024x480 screen resolution, front facing camera plus 8 megapixel camera with LED flash. There is also a 1Ghz p...
Acer have officially announced the Liquid Metal phone which is running on Android 2.2 FroYo and has a 5 megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording features. The metal also comes powered by a 800Mhz Qualcomm processor and has a 3.6 inch screen. The ...
We asked the lovely people at eXpansys whether we could borrow the Acer Stream a while ago. "It'll only take a week to review", we said. Then.. the server decided to go into melt-down. Unfortunately it's taken a lot longer than we'd anticipated. Apolo...
The Acer Stream is available unlocked exclusively from expansys for £399.99. We've got one in to review and we're pretty impressed already with the HD video recording. There's a speedy 1GHz CPU, 800x400 AMOLED capacitive 3.7" screen, WiFi, FM radio, ...
Android seems to be popping up in various different bits of hardware lately. Now Acer has revealed to Aspire One AOD255. It looks like pretty much every other bargain-basement netbook running XP, but this one can also boot into the Android OS. This is...

The Acer range is split for the most part between the "beTouch E" range (Android powered) and the "neoTouch P" range (Windows Mobile powered). This is the E400 and, as you'll have seen in our earlier story, it looks exactly the same as the P400. Again...
I'm now at the airport and, somehow, I've managed to get myself into the Business Lounge. There's free beer here, so if this news item has spelling mistakes, you'll know why. This morning I took a look at an entry-level device that Acer are showing of...
Last night we popped along to see Acer. They've got a fairly substantial Windows Mobile and Android range available. One of their latest phones, the Acer Liquid, was on display along with a very similar looking phone - the "Acer Liquid e". Actually it...
