Acer Stream review

 

Acer take a stab at smartphone supremacy

Acer Stream

 

The Acer Stream is the company's latest flagship handset, following on from the Liquid and Liquid E before it. Acer isn't a company with a great history in mobile devices and so far has enjoyed limited success. It's clear that Acer is committed to this...

Some interesting tweaks by Acer, Dolby Mobile, no sign of lag from the OS

Custom UI might be a little too constrained for some, video capture isn't that impressive, video shortcut buttons seem superfluous

Overall we found navigation to be fast, with little sign of lag anywhere in the device. Applications loaded with pace and executed their functions without problems. For all the changes that Acer has brought in, we found the Stream to run the UI without...

Acer Stream review

 

The Stream is Acer's best smartphone ever. But is it even in the same league as rest?

Dolby Mobile sound equaliser is great ; Screen resolution is superb ; Good web browser ; Great media integration in nemoPlayer ; Strong macro mode in camera

720p video is jerky ; Screen is pale outdoors ; Needs a bigger battery ; Complex widget management ; Silly language selection key on keyboard

We've seen a number of smartphones launched this year from Acer including beTouch models running Android and neoTouch models running Windows Mobile.

Acer Stream review

 

The Acer Stream is a Google Android 2.1 smartphone with a 3.7in screen, a 5Mp camera and solid battery life. Here's our review.

With 15 to choose from right now, Acer is taking a scattergun approach to its Android phone line-up. The Acer Stream is one of the better-equipped, although there’s little here to recommend this me-too handset over competitors from HTC or Motorola.

Acer Stream review

 

A powerful, up-to-date Android phone, but its large AMOLED screen is disappointingly dim.

Acer Stream review

 

Acer's previous Android efforts haven't quite cut it. But can the feature-rich Stream reverse its fortunes?

A capable Android smartphone, but struggles to outshine the HTC Desire in design or performance

Acer Stream Review

 

The Acer Stream boasts a 3.7-inch AMOLED touchscreen, a 5-megapixel camera and runs on Android 2.1 with an update to 2.2/Froyo due to roll out at the end of the year. The Acer Stream is shaping up to be…
