Short Review
- The Acer Liquid Z4 features a compact design with dimensions of 124 x 64 x 9.7 mm and a weight of 122 grams, making it easy to handle.
- Its 4.0-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 800 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 233 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks sharpness for high-definition content.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6572 chipset with a dual-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, providing satisfactory functionality for everyday applications.
- The rear camera has a 5 MP sensor with autofocus, capable of recording video at 720p, while the front-facing 1.3 MP camera is suitable for basic selfies.
- Battery life is supported by a 1630 mAh capacity, though it lacks fast charging or wireless charging capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean), which may feel outdated compared to current software standards.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone is available in black and white colors, but it does not offer water resistance.
- Overall, the Acer Liquid Z4 is a basic smartphone with essential features, suitable for users with minimal requirements.
