Acer Liquid Z500 Review

Score: 53.6 / 100

Acer Liquid Z500 is a mid-end cellphone released back in the year 2014, which counts with an extremely powerful Quad-Core processing unit running at 1.3 GHz, a comfortable 5" multi-touch screen, and 2 cameras, an 8 megapixels back camera and a 2 megapixels front side camera. We will get a better understanding of this phone's specifications when we get into deeper details.

Acer sells this cellphone with a MediaTek MT6582 chip, holding an extremely powerful Quad-Core processor clocking at 1.3 GHz and only 1 GB RAM which is a bit disappointing for such a solid phone. Graphic intensive applications and games generally consume a lot of processor cycles, so this phone also counts with a 416 megahertz ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU to take care of them, leaving the processor free for other tasks. The Acer Liquid Z500 has a 4 GB internal storage memory, a common quantity that should be adequate for the average user considering that this device also has a slot for an external memory card .

This cellphone is quite a compact phone, taking into account that it features a 5" screen and it has just 0" long. This cellphone is for sale in 3 color options, black, gray and green.

This phone features two cameras, an 8 megapixels back camera and a 2 MP front side camera. To complete the camera, it also counts with some nice characteristics: auto-focus, flash, geo tagging and smile detection shooting.

This phone has a good level 5" display with a 1280 x 720 (HD) resolution, which makes it hard to see the pixels taking part of the display. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and has multi-touch detection.

The Acer Liquid Z500 provides Wi-Fi capability (although it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot). The Acer Liquid Z500 doesn't use a sim card, because it doesn't support GSM services.

This cellphone counts with a good 2000 mAh replaceable battery that can keep it running for some hours, although you will probably need to charge it even after moderate usage. This phone has a reported 500 hs stand by time and a 9 hours talk time according to Acer.

The Acer Liquid Z500 also features some useful characteristics as Bluetooth and GPS Geolocation, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

The Acer Liquid Z500 costs $ 249, which is high for this type of device.
