Acer Liquid M220 review

 

Acer does Windows Phone

Cheapest Windows Phone ; Nice design

Terrible storage ; Average display

Windows Phone is the big headline here, and considering it's the cheapest handset on the platform it may attract some customers for that alone.

Acer Liquid M220

 

After some years away, Acer is taking a second roll of the dice on the Windows Phone OS with a variant of its entry-level Z220 handset.

Acer Liquid M220 review: Hands-on with the new Acer Liquid M220

 

It seems a few manufacturers are giving Windows Phone another go alongside Android smartphones. Here are our first impressions in our Acer Liquid M220 review from MWC 2015 in Barcelona. Also see Best smartphones 2015.

The Acer Liquid M220 might be cheap but that's all it has going for it really. The phone wouldn't have been all that impressive a few years ago, let alone now. Our initial impression is that you're better off spending a little more on a better Windows...

Acer Liquid M220 Review: Acer’s Budget Windows Phone Debut

 

Without question, Windows Phone still has its fans and that's why Acer has jumped into the Windows Phone market with the Acer Liquid M220, and the Acer Liquid M220 review is ahead.

Design and materials used are great for a budget phone. Windows Phone 8.1 is smooth and a joy to use. Upgradable to Windows 10 Mobile.

Camera isn't the best, display could use a resolution bump, battery life could be better.

The M220 is an amazing phone given the insane price of $79.99. This phone isn’t for the spec hungry, high resolution snob. This phone is for those looking for a nice smartphone to use for basic needs and functions. If you’re looking for iPhone or Nexus...

Acer Liquid M220 Review: The $80 Smartphone

 

At a certain point, a deal is so good that certain sacrifices become acceptable, right? That would at least appear to be Acer's philosophy with its first US smartphone offering, the $80 Windows Phone-powered Liquid M220.

Highly affordable ; Great battery life ; Small footprint

3G only ; Poor display ; Mediocre (though not as bad as you’d think!) performance/specs
