Acer Liquid Metal smartphone running Android OS

PC provider Acer has provided the Liquid Metal smartphone, a  device which it hopes will allow it to compete with the major rivals in what is becoming an increasingly crowded market.
The Acer Liquid Metal’s specifications make interesting reading, with version 2.2 of Android onboard accompanied by the specialised Breeze user interface.
It’s 5MP camera with HD video capture lurks on the rear, whilst a 3.6 inch display using capacitive touch technology makes an appearance on the front, making it a hair larger than the iPhone 4. Sadly the display’s resolution is unlikely to match that of Apple’s smartphone king.
An 800MHz processor will give life to Android, but it is slightly strange to see a new mobile emerging with anything less than 1GHz of processing power under the hood, so it will be interesting to see how the Acer Liquid Metal has been optimised to squeeze the most from this chip.
