The Acer Liquid Jade S version introduces with bold looks, a rather slim waistline and well-balanced hardware. It includes dual SIM slots, quad-band 2G connectivity , quad-band 3G, and Cat 4 LTE for download speeds up to 150Mbps and many more.

1. Acer Liquid Jade S: Another Semi-Precious One?
The Acer Liquid Jade S seeks to carve a niche for itself with bold looks, a rather slim
waistline and well-balanced hardware. Announced only six months post the Liquid
Jade the S version introduces illustrious upgrades in several major areas. It certainly
has a more powerful chipset that features an octa-core processor. The higher-grade
graphics processor is the key alteration, however, the doubled operating memory
and onboard storage are also noteworthy changes. The new SoC is not merely about
higher performance though, it also brings along the needed LTE support to the
table.
There are many other key features that have been retained starting with the 5-inch
display. The display may not be FullHD, but qHD resolutions aren’t unheard of in the
price segment and 720p gives enough density without raising the price too high.
The dual SIM capability will be applauded by specific users, even if the second card
needs to fight with the microSD for the shared slot space.
The Acer Liquid Jade S sports prominent styling too. While certain design elements
may not be to everyone's liking, it's definitely not just another nameless black
rectangle of a smartphone. It's also light and pleasantly thin - a rarity in a price
range where build is usually sacrificed at the altar of lower price.

both SIM cards, quad-band 3G, and Cat. 4 LTE for download speeds up to 150Mbps.
Other key features include:
 Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, hotspot; GPS with A-GPS
 64-bit Mediatek MT6752M chipset with an octa-core Cortex-A53 processor

No matter how well-designed the device is, is comes with its own set of
disadvantages too. It has a non-removable battery and there is no NFC. Further, the
power button is in an uncomfortable position. You also can’t have dual-SIM and
microSD at the same time on this phone.
So, as discussed in the above list, the Acer Liquid Jade S addresses the shortfalls of
its predecessor and adds up to a convincing smartphone package on paper. It has a
promising hardware, which is further complemented by a unique styling.
With the specifications duly in place, as many prospective buyers would like to
have, the phone is all set to create a buzz in the market!
