Acer Liquid Jade S costs $299 64bit MT6752M processor

Acer are still trying to hit the nail on the head when it comes to Android smartphones, and at CES have come the closest ever with the Acer Liquid Jade S with 64bit processor and attractive design.

Acer claim the Liquid Jade range of phones are a “work of art”, they certainly do look good, but it’s not until the launch of the new Liquid Jade S at CES that they have really managed to pack a punch.

The latest Liquid Jade S adopts a 64bit Mediatek MT6752M chipset, which is the slightly downgraded version of the MT6752 found in the Meizu m1 note, but still manages to offer a lot more power over previous Mediatek chips.

The faster chipset also boats Cat 4 LTE support, better GPS performance than ever before and a faster Mali T760 GPU.

The 7.78mm phone gets a 5-inch display, 13 mega-pixel F1.8 rear camera (that should offer very good low-light photography) and a 5-mega-pixel camera up front for selfies with included “smile to shoot” feature.

Dual nano sim support and space for a micro SD card are also part of the package that will cost from only $299 USD once it launches internationally later this month.

    A bit overpriced, don’t like castrated processors but Acer manages to pull out nice smartphones (but needs a price cut ASAP)

    Yes a bit overpriced. THey should check the prices of other phones with the same SoC before putting up that price. Besides, I will go for the Jiayu S3 or the Elephone P7000 over this.

    i don’t understand why acer keeps on using those processors with poor performance …

      Because they are good performers and cost quite a bit less than Qualcomm solutions.

        I did not make the comparison with qualcomm but with the other mediatek processors, why not mount a mt6595 instead of that here?

      also they´re not poor processors, the gpu is mostly poor and so people think the cpu is bad, even if its the gpu

    too expensive and old SoC.
    1 GB ram will be a nail in the coffin of this one…
