Acer Liquid X2 review: Switchboarding

14 May, 2016
Liquid X2, Acer called it, when it clearly should have been the Acer Liquid X3. Now, we understand how the smartphone comes to replace the X1, but how did they miss out on a chance to name a triple-SIM device the X3, even if it skips a digit? Yes, the Acer Liquid X2 has multiple SIM slots, three of them.

    I need one in Kenya, but fear if it doesn't have any update. It ought to be up to date in terms of specializations

        I like Acer liquid X2. I already bought it last October 2016. I bought it for these reasons; triple sim, battery life, screen size, 4g LTE capability, camera, flip cover and for games like Pokemon go .! I'm planning to get another one, different color of acer liquid x2.

          Not worth buying, no upgrade support from Acer, and it's already two Android versions out of date.

            My liquid e700 is still performing good, I am using it for more tha a year now. The phone is very durable too.. system apps are regularly updated, android version was even updated once.. a very good all round mid ranger, and I guess it goes the same with liquid x2, that's if you don't care much about design.. :) you can't find any other smartphones out there with 3 sim's + lte + very good baterry life..

              Why is the newer model ugly compared to the older Liquid X1?

                  3 SIMs eh? And not one of them slots are hybrids. Only ACER can do this it seems.
                  But even for a good low-end smartphone to buy in 2016, I need a Snapdragon 615 + Adreno 405 combo or the Helio X10 offering (because by 2016 these used-to-be-upper-midrange/flagship are considered old). Just pop in huge removable battery (CHECKED) and a reasonably latest OS version with reasonably quick updates (NOT CHECKED !), enough RAM and ROM size (CHECKED) and you're set. Oh, cameras. But i don't use cameras on phones so what the heck.

                  I would leave the other two SIM slots forever empty for battery life sake, 85h Rating for 4000 mAh on 720p is pretty good on mid/low range. Albeit the Xiaomi Note 3 did posted 100+ score on equal resolution and battery size, but those (Mediatek version and the "PRO" Snapdragon version) Xiaomis uses better chipsets.

In the site (under the Tools Section, named Battery Life Table. I think you need the desktop version of the site to access this) you can also alter the 3 values: Calls, Video play, Web Browsing (which standardised by GSMARENA at 1 Hour each for each day and the rest standby) by multiplying those values based on your usage pattern.

                      at least it's an improvement compare to my previous acer e700, better engine i said, 32GB/3GB + triple sim is what i'm looking for android phone, enough to handle my daily activities.

                      it's a midrange phone, and not most all people need three sim card, but in my case, it's pretty usefull since i can't rely my internet + phone activities to just one operator in my country :p. and since it's android, 32GB/3GB is sufficient for the next year.

                                  dont get me wrong people, but be honest, this phone front looks UGLY just look what are these sensors/cameras random sh!t on top? they dont even care about order and design? lol
