Acer Smartphone Liquid C1 i110 - Intel Inside


Acer has released a new Android smartphone in the Philippines, the Acer Smartphone Liquid C1 i110. Acer's new offering has a 4.3-inch qHD (540 x 960) display. Storage is 4 GB expandable by a  microSD card slot. The phone comes with two cameras,  a 8 MP primary camera and a VGA front camera. Wireless connectivity is via HSPA, WiFi and Bluetooth. The battery is a relatively large 2000 mAh unit.

What makes the Acer Liquid C1 unique is that it runs on an Intel processor. Inside the Acer Liquid C1 is single core 1.2 GHz Intel Atom Z2420 rather than the usual ARM processor you find on smartphones. Performance is about equivalent to a high end dual core ARM processor, scoring over 12000 points in the Antutu benchmarks. Given that the Acer Liquid C1 is priced at just Php12,499, that is a lot of power for the asking price.

Unfortunately, it still runs on an older version of Android, version 4.0, "Ice Cream Sandwich" with a lot of newer phones running on Android version 4.1 or 4.2, Jelly Bean.
