Short Review

  • The Acer Liquid Z5 features a simple design with dimensions of 145.5 x 73.5 x 8.8 mm and a weight of 150 grams, available in Essential White and Gentle Grey.
  • Its 5.0-inch TFT display has a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 196 ppi, which may not provide the sharpest visuals.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6572 chipset with a dual-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 4GB of RAM, suitable for basic tasks but limited for demanding applications.
  • The camera system includes a 5 MP rear camera, lacking advanced features like optical image stabilization, and a 0 MP front camera, which restricts selfie capabilities.
  • Battery life is supported by a 2000 mAh capacity, but it does not offer fast or wireless charging options.
  • The device runs on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), which is outdated compared to current software standards.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 3.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
  • The phone has a microUSB 2.0 port and a standard headphone jack.
  • Overall, the Acer Liquid Z5 is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without any standout features.
  • Its specifications reflect its 2014 release, making it less competitive in today's market.
