Short Review
- The Acer DX900 features a compact design with dimensions of 106 x 60.5 x 17 mm and a weight of 147g, making it portable but somewhat thick.
- Its 2.8-inch TFT resistive touchscreen displays 65K colors at a resolution of 480 x 640 pixels, providing decent clarity for its time, though lacking HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a 533 MHz Samsung S3C 6410 CPU paired with 128MB of RAM, which may struggle with multitasking in modern contexts.
- The rear camera offers 3.15 MP with autofocus, capable of basic photography, but lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- The 1530 mAh battery provides limited longevity without fast charging or wireless capabilities.
- Running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, the software experience is dated and may not support contemporary applications.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g and Bluetooth 2.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device lacks stereo speakers and a headphone jack, which may limit audio options.
- Overall, the Acer DX900 is a basic smartphone with limited features, reflecting its 2009 release.
- Its build quality and design are functional, but it falls short in performance and modern usability.
